The fashion is well suited to the new one-story homes, of which thousands have been built in all parts of the country. Gay flower beds and borders give the simple lines of these houses a decorative frame which enhances their ap pearance. The flowers never grow so high as to obstruct the windows. A flower-flanked door extends a friendly welcome to callers, and a neighborly greeting to passers-by. Eight months or more of floral beauty may be enjoyed in dooryard gardens anywhere in this country. For a full season's display, spring flowering bulbs should be planted in the fall. Snowdrops, scillas, cro cuses, daffodils, early and late tu lips, following each other in that order, will provide flowers from the time frost comes out of the ground until the June perennials are in fiower. For summer, a planting of stdn, presided at the table which was decorated with a miniature bride and groom, pink and white flowers and white tapers.

The garden shown in the illus tration is cleverly designed to in crease the apparent size of the house and lot, while providing a charming decoration for the en trance. The fence is 18 inches high and serves to enclose the flower beds, for which flowers are chosen whose height will be in good scale with the fence. Cosmos orange flare, dwarf mar igold, and calliopsis are all yellow and orange; the fragrant nicotiana (sweet tobacco) is white. This gives a color scheme which is es pecially suited to a blue house, or one painted in tones of yellow and brown. All these plants will grow easily from seed sown direct in the garden. Flowers a few weeks earli er may be obtained by starting seeds in an indoor box. While flowers of any color com bination, or mixture, will be beau tiful in a dooryard garden, regard less of the color of the house, de lightful effects may be produced with color schemes worked out by amateurs having a gift for decora tion. t Steinhart Park for a picnic.
