This poem was sent to me by the author who is an Island lady in the western part of our pro- Vince, and I am sharing it with you.

Last week I wrote of the or- chard frees. the later varieties are still heavy with bloom and fragrance. This orchard was planted over half a century ago and spaced thirty feet apart in straight rows. since then some of the trees have been replaced with young trees; and these are now graceful half-grown trees bearing fruit and beautiful in blossom. There are one hundred trees in the orchard and almost every one has blossomed this year.

Sometimes an early graft has bloomed among the green foli- age maklng the tree look like a beautiful flower auangement and

this beauty might have been lost if the necessary equipment had been near when needed to stump out sosne of then knobby old gnarled trees last autumn. Who

could do away with one apple ,

tree in fragrant blossom? Even if the garden contained a bun- dred old trees with some young trees placed here and there. Never has our orchard given us so much pleasure in blossoming time as in this season. Perhaps it is because of the mown grass and the seats placed under them so moments can be used for the enjoyment of all this fragrance and loveliness. This season has been a long time because of the cool rainy days but now the bees bus and all is well.

Two flowering crabs are beauti- ful in rosy red and deep red col- ors. with some fragrance too. and they last much longer than the old fashioned varieties. In aut- umn the branches are covered with small clusters of colorful fruit suitable for decoration and some are good for jellies. The foliage of these byhrid trees is or- namental being of varying de- of so green to red.

They have proved hardy and desirable in the garden here and more will planted. Shrubs alone can make a lovely garden unu as this gardener grows old- cr every day more of these good shrubs will be planted. Every year more are added to the gar- den here and there are many more to be tried out for hardi- ness and beauty at little coat. and the care necessary for a shrub garden is nothing com- pared to other forms of garden- lug. I have been busy with the pere- nnial borders this week and be- cause of the neglect they have suffered in the busy rainy sea- son it has been quite a task. Or- der is being restored and the ori- ontal poppies. iris and lupiues are giving needed color. The sweet rocket to mauve and white is making the garden fragrant, es- pecially in the evenings. and it is forgiven the spreading habit because of its fragrance. it is not a hard plant to keel) ill bounds because it is biennial in habit and a sharp shovel soon stamps it out when the garden- er needs to make room for the peonies and other plants.

Lupines in many colors of rose cream and bicolors are bloom- lng now and giving the spire like effect needed in a perennial border.

New Coiumbines were planted last autumn and are now beauti- ml in many different colors. They are a dainty cut flower and with the sweet rocket and some of the lovely V1013; make a nice ar- sangcment for the home.
