HOW TO IMPROVE
YOUR HOME GROUNDS
Practically every householder in
the country or an urban centre has a
desire to have attractive surround-
ings and nothing will do so much in
this way at so small a cost as the
planting of trees, shrubs, plants
,und vines. Within the next few weeks
is the best time for planting, but
such work should be done on some
definite plan in order t� get the moat

They were all wpling to . travel that

Then there is the' question of just
what to plant. This and a wide range
of other questions is answered in the
handbook "Beautifying the Hoine
Grounds of Canada'' issued by the

to illustrate the arrangement of
lawns, gardens and plantings for the
average small house with pictures of
what engaging results can be attain-
ed. There is .also a special chapter
dealing with Planting the Farin
Hume Ground. . •
How to Establish and Maintain a
hock Garden is also fully described
and plans are given to indicate how
to- get the most effective lay out.
Every conceivable detail about ar-
