Keeping Flowers All Summer -Rich Red and Green of
Cannes Sure-fire Blooms.
The new garden always seems
a impel/es tort of thing; but
lo fact. It needs only a little
patience and some reel thought on
the relectiou oi pleats to make it a
thing of beauty within a surprising-
ly short time.
It•is of prime importance that soil
conditions be right. 1)u uot try to
make a parries on subsolL This
aubject has been covered in a pe
vious, talk so will have W be dis-
mised a ithout further mention.
Nearly all our hardy border plauts
require two years to come Into full
flower, and many more to reach per-
fectioh. They should be started as
soon as posstble, but they cau not be
counted upon for display the first
year. This cams' us to place de-
pendence upon tbe annuals and the
bulbous and tuberous rooted plants
for the bloom from a new garden.
Althougb this seems like narrowing
the field of posalbilitiee the propo-
eition looks different when we re-
member that there are at least 75
varieties of *111(011 flowering plants
from which to choose, and over a
dosen kinds of bulbous. tuberous and
fleshy rooted plants which will give
a profusion of bloom the year tbey
are set out.,
In chooshig for the new garden It
le important that the pease" for
flowering be taken into considera-
tion. Following the very early spring
flowers that we get from fall -planted
bulbs come the pansies and for early
cool. weet1wr bloomers tbey are
general favorites. The being or Eng
lieh daisy in really a pereenial. but
as it its usnalle bought all ready to set
out and begin flowering, it may lie
regarded se a very pleseant possi-
bility for the new garden.

Rupert says that the Norther
port, like Vancouver. is ice -free all
the year round. is a terminal of the
Transcontinental Railway, which cuui
across the wheat belt, and is. there-
fore, as well located as Vancouver to
be an outlet tor Western grain. It
has no elevator accommodation. and
is asking for it. The LdmontOn
Board of Trade supports the demand.
The Bulletin says that, having given
assistance to Vancouver In its efforts
to obtain equipment for a large grain
export business, the Provincial Gov-
ernment and Edmonton are equally
bound to help Prince Rupert.
The northern port has precisely the
same claims to consideration from
the grain growers on the Prairies as
Vancouver. It has an equally good
harbor, the rail rates from Edmonton
are the same, and the water rates
from Prince Rupert to European
markets are the same as from its
southern rival. Aud if any consider-
able market for Alberta grain la to
be found in the Orient Prince Rupert
bas the advantage of being a day's
sail closer to the ports of Japan and
China.
It would be to the interest of the
grain growers of Alberta and Saskat-
&Iowan that there should he two pro-
perly equipped grain -handling ports
on the Pacific lustead of one.
