EVENING, MAR.CH 29; MORNING, HAPCH 31, 1930 THE TRIBUNE-REPUBLICAN: GREELEY; COLORAUO fc THREE Series of Bloom Provided by Gay Perennial Border Collins, March 29--One of the principal advantages of a border or bed of perennial flowers is that a succession of blooms may be obtained by planting many different perennials which Jlower at various times during the spring, suinmer and fall. Grouping perennials in this manner not only gives more continuous blossoms, but makes for greater ease in maintenance, It is pointed out by George Beach, extension horticulturist 'at the Colorado Agricultural college. "In planning the perennial border," says Mr. Beach, "one should follow the plan used in locating shrubs in a group --the largest and tallest specimens to the center or back and far.ther apart than the smaller specimens, grading down thru the medium tall to the smaller ones planted more closely in the -front. "A planting of tulips, iris, peonfes; phlox, poppies, daisies, boltonia and chrysanthemums will furnish a continuous succession of blossoms from early spring to late fall.

There are many more, perennials which are. equally hardy In most sections ot Colorado. "Even without much variety a long period of bloom may be had- by using- mid-season and late-seasoti plants the same species, or by a succession of plantings, as with It is explained that the term "perennial border" is commonly used to include a bed of perennial flowers as well as an actual edging. It is not necessarily a narrow strip surrounding a yard as common usage of the word might infer. In applying the light mulch of leaves or straw" to the perennial border, it is suggested, that it is much more convenient to cover ail the perennials in the bed than to cover only a peony here and a poppy there.

Vegetable Gardens Are Coming Back After the war "with its t-egetable growing as a war measure, vegetable gardening went into a temporary eclipse and gardens which had dotted every small lot during the war days disappeared and gave place to flower gardens in a great majority cases, the family gardening burden passing to the distaff side of the house. The pendulum has now swung in the other' direction and gardening is coining back to the place its importance normally deserves in the home; grounds. The Vegetable garden becomes a real convenience and once established it is a home utility with vegetables to be gathered at one's own back door. Vegetables gathered a few minutes before they go Into the kettle and to the table, of course, have "a freshness and quality hard to obtain elsewhere. The home garden offers a choice of varieties.

Market gardeners are con- se.rvative, trust to staples and productiveness is more of a criterion In selecting seeds of varieties than quality. If the vegetable garden space is small, specializing in varieties that can't be bought at the markets lends variety to the family board. Tariff Statistics Given by Official Press) Advance, Bflston, March story the troublesome tariff bill was told in statistics tonight by Dr. Alfred Dennis, vice chairman of the tariff commission at Washington.
