□ VERMILION SCHOOL OF AGRICULTURE □ THE COUNTRY FLOWER GARDEN (Continued from Page 9) as a starter. The plants should finally be placed about a foot apart as they acquire considerable size and the blooms will present a gorgeous appearance in the mixed border or the solid bed. Ten weeks stocks, planted thickly and allowed to remain thick in the border, will delight the eyes of the whole family and will perfume the evening air with a delightful fragrance that will rival the exquisite gardens of the East. A few packets of stocks seed distributed wisely around the house garden will repay their cost a thousand times in interest and contentment. Marigolds, calendulas, old-fashioned mignonette and forget- me-nots with a scattering of portulaca and dainty pansies will complete a beauty spot in the house garden and will entail no great amount of work on the part of the grower. The portulaca will provide a creeping, moss-like carpet, dotted here and there with tiny rose-like blooms while the pansies will perpetuate them¬ selves and will throw out countless blooms that resemble the faces of children, and will gladden the heart of their possessor. Tall, stately hollyhocks are a constant source of joy and if the seeds are planted in the garden about the middle of July, the plants will have attained their maturity by the following spring, the blooms coming out close to the stems for a distance of two and often three feet in length. Hollyhock roots may be secured at a minimum cost from growers everywhere. Other perennials that do well in Alberta and which require little attention once they have become established are the marvelous larkspurs, peonies and columbines. If you have never experienced the joy that comes from the growing of a flower garden, try it out this year; life on the farm will lose much of its sameness when the evenings are spent in the garden where flowers send their fragrant daintiness through the summer air.
