Mrs. Shepherd, fasclnatetl with her beautiful task, thought little of the outside world till at lengthy the outside world came to her. People desired seeds and cuttings from her garden, and presently a flourishing trade with professional floriculturists and seedsmen developed. She sent out new varieties of begonias, nasturtiums, popples, cosmos and other flowers. Women who cultivate from the seed in their pretty gardens in the east the wonderful yellow California poppy aid other exquisite flowers from the Pacific coast will be Interested to know that this quiet Indefatigable woman floriculturist was the first person to grow flower seed for the eastern states' trade.

Her seeds have found their way throughout Europe. She is the pioneer flower seed to seed, sne gathers the seeds, sows them, watches and tends the resulting plants till they fructify and In like manner gathers the seeds of this second generation and garners them for planting. She regards all change in the floral kingdom as manifestation of a force that is seeking new expression, and she treasures it accordingly, being wiser with her plants than most parents are with their children. In time the change she has fostered becomes fixed, then a new flower appears on the scene. Hybridizing is an intensely Interesting part of Mrs.

Shepherd's work. She carefully selects the flowers she wishes to cross, then takes upon the tip of a little camel's hair brush some of the pollen of one flower and deposits It upon the pistil, of te other flower. Thus transported to a new home, the strange life, whatever It is, in the pollen, seizes upon the pistil of the fertilized plant and' nourishes itself and produces a MEN generally discover every good thing first and women follow on after aS fast as their lack ot knowledge and dread of Mrs. Grundy permit Men discovered the delights of summer camping in forest and by stream, away from all the uncomfortable restraints in which civilization has prisoned the natural wild man.

Several giant double petunias have also been added to the kingdom of blossoms by the woman originator of new flowers. woman sex have become almost common in some states. In Vermont and New Hampshire abandoned farmhouses have been converted into camp homes. The farmhouse Is merely the headquarters of the campers.

It constitutes their dining room and kitchen and their refuge on rainy days. The true campers sleep in tents, not under roofs. In pine forest districts, if the camp can be so near the woods that fresh twigs can be gathered for beds, so much the better. First a rubber blanket upon the ground, then a thick layer of the pine twigs, in place of the conventional mattress, with blankets for cool nights, and the town dweller sleeps In such slumber as nobody but' a child can enjoy in the city.

Buckingham the brilliant idea of making the waste swamp grass on her land pay her a good Bum. How she had the cleverness to persuade the leaders in a presidential campaign to adopt pampas grass plumes as their emblems in parades throughout the whole land, Mrs. Buckingham furnishing the plumes from her California ewamp lands, many know. It was as clever a business stroke as agriculturist ever accomplished. The sale of the pampas plumes gave the brave ranch woman her start One of Shepherd's most Illus trious successes has been achieved with the common cosmos.

She took it a rather small, fringed flower about two Inches across. She selected fine specimens, crossed the pollen of one upon the pistil of another, tended the plants and watched results patiently, till now she has developed thirty five There are weaitny society women who take what they call the tent rest cure.

She has changed not only the colors of this familiar flower, but also the configuration ot the petals, causing those of one to be plain, another ruffled, while others still are laid in strange folds. At first this remarkable floriculturist had no thought of fame or gain from her gardening, but went at it through pure love of flowers and for recreation. She is a native of Iowa, and her father, Augustus Hall, was a member of congress. She was married to a young Iowa lawyer, Mr. William Edgar Shepherd.

In 1S73, on account of ill health, she went to California, Her husband went with her, and they established themselves in a cottage at Ventura. The marvelous floral richess of California impressed Mrs. Shepherd as It impresses all newcomers. She determined to have a garden of her own. There was health, there was joy in cul ing silent so long.

Even two weeks of such camp life unearthly beauty float before the vision can one behold blooms as beautiful and wonderful as those reared by the namesake of Aaron Burr's lovely, ill fated daughter.

The blossoms about her home at Ventura are so wonderful, so abundant and so fragrant that they are fairly overwhelming to the the sight of them makes the hearty cause no human words can describ auty.

The begonia is Mrs. Sbep favorite flower, and she has one Begonia plant fifteen feet high.

To these the gregarious camp affords most pleasure and benefit sleeping In tents, eating In a common dining room and spending the rest of the time outdoors walking, cycling, golfing, boating and bathing.

Mrs. Shepherd spent her mornings at work In the garden. She declares that floriculture, seed raising and the developing of new plants constitute an admirable occupation for women who have their living to earn. She thinks it ought to be a "morning occupation" for every woman. She herself appeared to take naturally to the hybridizing of flowers and to originating new varieties.

Her method in developing a new flow er is to "cut out" In ranchman's parlance, the particular plant that shows a sport' blossom, different from others of the same species.
