VINES 
'I'o afki to the beauty of the home and its surroundings, Vines of different kinds are unsurpassed 
If many i)are, unsightly walls were covered by them, they would become things of beauty, for Vines 
have llie power to soften lines and cover uj) imperfections. W’here it is desired to give an appearance 
of age to a building, they are unecpialed. 
Nothing can surpass the glory of the Wistaria, the Yellow Jessamine and Bignonia speciosa. when 
in full bloom, d'he Japan Ivy and X’irginia CVeeper arc well adapted for brick walls, or surfaces where 
a Vine is recpiired to climb by fastening itself. I'he Honeysuckle and Trunij^et \dnc are splendid for 
covering mounds, dead trees and fences, d'he \'ellow Jessamine, the two Honeysuckles, Allamanda 
and Rhyncospernium, are evergreen, and where an evergreen covering is desired they should be 
given preference, d'he Rhyncosj)ermum, Yellow Jessamine and Trumpet Honeysuckle are sweet- 
scented. It should be borne in mind that the Climl)ing Roses and Muscadine Grapes are useful for 
these same purposes. 
For best results, the land should be well prepared, and, if planted near brick walls, the mortar 
and brickbats sliould be removed. Dig deeply and mix a fair amount of commercial fertilizer with 
the soil about two weeks before i)lanting. After they are established, commercial fertilizer or stable 
manure may be used as a surface dressing. With good drainage, \’ines recjuire j)lcnty of water.
