HOW TO GROW THEM 
How to Provide 
Drainage 
HE chances are that your garden soil is 
sufficiently well-dr: Lined dit you will 
need do nothing to provide drainage arti- 
ficially. However, there are cases ce land 
is made unsuitable for eardening, because 
heavy rains do not soak away rapidly 
enough. Then, drainage can be supplied. 
It is really quite simple. 
To begin with, you must dig a little 
deeper than ordinarily required by the plants. 
Then, if you are going to fertilize with rotted 
animal fertilizer, you can apply it in the 
bottom of the hole. After you have applied 
the animal fertilizer, put down a layer of 
loose sand about one to two inches thick. 
‘This will provide drainage at the same time 
that it is supplying fertility to the plant. 
Be sure to use a loose material for your 
separating layer. If your garden soil is of 
clay, you must use something else, like loose 
sand, which you would have to bring in. ‘The 
clay is too impervious. 
If you are unable to supply the animal 
fertilizers, fine loose gravel can be used in 
the bottom, instead of the manure. But, if 
you can use the manure, by all means do so.

Ree like a good, rich, well-drained soil, 
with lots of fertility. Whether it is acid or 
sweet does not matter, unless it would be e 
tremely so in either direction. And, they will 
thrive on a soil of almost any texture, except- 
ing the very light, sandy soils. 
Heavy soils are fine for Roses, especi: ally 
when loosened somewhat by mixing well 
with well-rotted stable manure or cow ma- 
nure. This would give them a nice loamy ef-
