This seems more plausible when we note that Rock Gardening is closely associated with another fashion, that of going to the moun- tains for aholiday which was initia- ted in this country and has spread supposition very’ r.\’ildly. The holiday in the mountains is. fairly obviously. a reaction against the conditions of civilized life. and it is natural that the English, the most romantic nation in the world and practical only in their aptitude for giving a concrete expression to their day-dreams, should be first to look back. with a kind of the from which civilized man has at last succeeded in escap- sentlmental nostalgia. to wilderness lng. ilritish Empire Countries China’s Biggest Customer The -United states heads the list exporting goods to China with 18.93 per cent of individual countries the Such a game of make-believe may be sentimental: it may be just a way of saying. “Where I am not. there is happiness." but if it is wildness we are after, let us see clearly what we want. For a Rock Garden the size of a lea.-tray can be made as effectively wild as an acre. This is not a depreciation of the Alpine landscapes fashioned on a large scale by our expert designers of Rock Gardens. These are the well-nigh p:‘l'ft‘Ci. expression of that desire which is illnrticulate in the haphazard rockery of films. brick- bats and Aubrletia. But we need not look on their creations with helpless envy, for we can learn as much from them as any scribbling journalist can learn from the masters of English prose and with more hope of putting what we have learnt successfully into practice. We need not feel that Rock Gardens are out of place in the suburbs, for it is for the suburbs that they are most desired, and I think that any- one who has as much as a backyard can make an Alpine landscape if he has the courage of his imagination and is willing to learn the techni- que.-—Jsson Hill. in Gardening Il- lustraied (English).

These three hardy annuals will stand el- roots and any soil attached, moistened. They spread out the roots when replanting and press fine soil firmly around them. If the plant is any sire they will usually add some water. Indeed frequent and copious watering at this time is the key to success. A stimulant in the way of commer- cial fertiliser rich in nitogen is also advisable. With such plants as petunlas. esters or tomatoes about as much fertilizer as can be held on e dime is sufficient. Experts urge that this be placed in the soil near. but not touching the roots and if possible the ground is soaked with water afterwards. GARDEN FRUITS Even in the moderately sized city garden there is usually an odd corner where fruit may be pro- duced. A cherry. plum or peach tree will not take up is great deal of room. Under garden conditions where it is possible to furnish more than lie usual protection most things can be grown far north of their ordinary environment. Cer- tain trees. it is true, they succumb in a hard winter. but the trees are not expensive and are easily re- placed. In the Prairie Districts certain very hardy apples, cherries. plums and almost innumerable berries have been originated which will give abundant returns for the space occupied. strawberries. goosebcrries. currents, Saskatoon berries and cherries are all hardy.
