D. OPTOMETRIST Hours: 1:30 to 5 P. M. FOR OPTICAL SERVICE Ruse Bldg. Plattsmouth With the Gr tarth Back in the days when women Wore bustles, flowers in front yards were in fashion. Now that bustles are coming back, door-yard gar dens are returning, but with a dif ference from the fashion followed in the nineties. Then, flowers were used to work out elaborate designs in beds of geometric shapes. This was an an cient fashion, dating back to the middle ages, known as parterre work. The beauty of the parterre was in its pattern, with the flowers used only to supply the color which developed it. Few examples of this method are now seen in this coun try. Modern door-yard gardens are as simple as possible in design, in order to center attention upon the beauty of the flowers. These arc grouped in masses of one color, so arranged that ecch mass harmo nizes with and sets off the ethers, r.nd all provide a pleasing decora tion for the hcuse. For these beds, annual f o'.vors j of lew. compact growth are r.;o;t ; suitable subjects. They will flower i w.ihout ceasing from July until i ir.g border cons' freezing weather, even in the north ern states, and are easily grown from seed, when started early un der protection, or in the garden it self as soon as the weather permits. The garden illustrated is a sim ple arrangement of border plant ings for a small house where the walk leads from the private drive way to the front door. Both house and lot will be made to seem larg er Ly this arrangement. Bright red. or pink salvias, and- the clear vivid red. pink, blue and bu:T ver benas will provide a brilliant dec oration for a white, or grey house. Both salvia and verbenas are slow growing, and seed should be started early in a hot-Led or green house, so that plants cf good s.ze can be set out as scon as danger of frost is over. If seed is sown di rectly in the garden, flowers may be delayed two or three weeks. Sweet alyzsum, however, v.-ill grow quickly from seed and either a dwarf white variety, or the dark purple Violet Queen Alyssum may bo ustd. If the plants are sheared when they grow too tall, flowci's will be increased, and a low grow- iv;a;nt hud.
