Everything Rustic

Umbrella, a Newport Rustic Log Cedar Settee, 
or a Rustic Pergola would create in the grounds 
surrounding your home ? Nothing is more art¬ 
istic, ornamental or comfortable.

every Evergreen. Good taste is always 
requisite to good planting, but a little study 
of the subject will carry the novice well on 
the road to solving the problems that may 
confront him in the matter of selecting 
the Evergreens he needs. 
Propagation by Cuttings 
(Continued from page 112.) 
permanent places by the following fall. 
Crimson and yellow rambler roses, the 
memorial rose (Rosa Wichuraiana ) and 
all the family of prairie roses (Rosa seti- 
gera ) can be increased easily in this way. 
The cuttings are best if taken in late au¬ 
tumn, of ripe wood of the summer’s 
growth, and they should not be planted out 
in spring until the frost is unquestionably 
gone and the ground has settled. 
Root and leaf cuttings have not been 
treated because they are less important to 
the gardener, who works out-of-doors. 
They are used only for special things that 
are not of great value to the beginner, 
largely because they are special.

British Floral Decoration. By R. Forester 
Felton, F. R. H. S. Illustrated in color. 
Cloth, large 8vo, gilt top, 194 pp. Lon¬ 
don: Adam & Charles Black. New York: 
The Macmillan Co. $2.50 net. 
The writer of this work is a well-known 
British authority and expert floral design¬ 
er and decorator whose work has been 
seen on some of the most notable public 
and private occasions. Ele takes up the 
subject of Table Decorations, Decorative 
Foliages, Orchids for Decoration, Church 
Decoration and many other specialized 
subjects. The twenty chapters teem with 
practical, artistic and authoritative sug¬ 
gestions for everyone interested in floral 
decoration. The illustrations give an ex¬ 
cellent exposition of the text, although the 
twelve color plates are hardly up to the 
highest standard of color work, which is 
to be regretted in a volume so commend¬ 
able in every other way. 
The Care of Trees. By B. E. Fernow. Il¬ 
lustrated. Cloth, 8vo, 392 pp. New York: 
Henry Holt and Company. $2 net. 
Professor Fernow’s comprehensive and 
copiously illustrated book takes up the 
entire subject of the care of trees in lawn, 
street and park. Written for amateurs by 
a forester, it places such information as 
the owners of trees may read in a con¬ 
venient and systematic form that cannot 
fail to be of the greatest use.
