Of course we meet with the disparager who will discount -the tale and glory of the horticulturaL picture and declare,. “Many - novel­ ties that flower so amazingly in\ the catalogue make in; the gardeiV’ a poor show’’. ' ' Perhaps this disparaging state-, ment was more a fling at the gardener than at the seed. Better" leave that side of the story and. secure and fortify one’s self with useful tools to piatch garden in­ dustry. My hoe, I notice, has got 'the headache. The hand scuffler has become very rusty in the winter’s hibernation. It ‘is not much rustier' tharv&y limbs that need limbering up. A new axe is needed; the old one deserves to be buried fathoms deep, . A wheelbarrow wouldn’t come amiss. (Once I had to glorify that •humble vehicle in a debate as I spoke to the affirmative that a: wheelbarrow is^ worth more to a farmer than a wife. Strange to say I was -on the winning side of that debate. But I am still on the side of the angels.) There must be a pair of leather gloves to handle ■ prickly _bushes, / What wife and daughter will focus upon this year, I know not. Last summer in ordinary flowers they had a garden decked Avith nasturtiums^ pansies, - petunias, gladioli and that old fashioned flower, Sweet William. William, is my middle name and Once, only once, did I hear (it was in my; youth) that encouraging word Sweet. We shall haye our flowers and vegetables and rejoice in their, growth, appearance and ■’ fruit. They will be all the more attractive with the care of our hands we co-operate witli a pro­ vidence tjiat joins us in produce ing loveliness and fruitfulness. My favorite missionary was a Church of England clergyman, named Temple Gairdner, whose ; life is one fine story. He labored ■ in North Africa. When visited by • a friend; walking down the gar­ den path with him, he took his i arm and broke out with this lit- any, “Let’s watch the garden , praising God!
