Many plants are acid loving. Bap- tisia, bayberry, cbrysanthemum, flox, heather, lady slipper, lily, marigold, magnolia, v/intergreen, lupine and trailing arbutus are some of the ones that like acid. Aquilegia or columbine is a hardy green perennial known for its exquisite, durable foliage, as well as its beautiful blooms in spring. Seed planted this year will bloom beautifully next spring. Grow these in the border, the rock garden and in a wild flower area. Grow them in plenty of rich humus and decayed manure. If borers attack your plants, use a so lution of 40% nicotine-sulphate. Many plants are used for hang ing baskets and window boxes. Some plants for hanging baskets could be clock vine, ivy, petunia, weeping lantanta, coleous, vinica, minion, geranium, verbena and periwinkle. Window boxes may be beautiful in ferns, alyssum, dusty miller, nasturtium, petunia, candytuft and trailing lantana. In flower, the lilac trailing lantana is beautiful. It has been used to beautify win dow boxes and to mark doorways at public buildings. At Cypress Gardens, it is beauti ful trailing on the banks. The hanging baskets there are beauti ful in petunias.

It is so relaxing to ride through Goldsboro and enjoy the beauty of the “Hanging Gardens Babylon.” We turn this week to the works of James Russell Lowell for our Buds and Blossoms poem. Its title is “To The Dandelion.” Dear common flower that grow’st beside the way. Fringing the dusty road with harmless gold. First pledge of blithesome May, Which children pluck, and full of pride uphold, High-hearted buccaneers, o’erjoyed that they An Eldorado in the grass have found. Which not the rich earth’s ample round May match in wealth, thou art more dear to me Than all the prouder summer blooms may be. MIRROR MORSELS Gold such as thine ne’er drew the Spanish prow Through the primeval hush of Indian seas. Nor wrinkled the lean brow Of age, to rob the lover’s heart of ease; ’Tis the spring’s largess, which she scatters now To the rich and poor alike with lavish hand. Though most hearts never understand To take it at God’s value, but pass by The offered wealth with unrewarded eye. Human life is a constant want and ought to be a constant prayer, —Samuel Osgood. Hatred is self-punishment. — Hosea Ballou. The wisdom of man is not suffi cient to warrant him in advising God. — Mary Baker Eddy. Rich gifts wax poor when givers prove unkind. — William Shake speare. Every bird likes its own nest best. — Randle Cotgrave. The seeds of our punishment are sown at the same time we commit the sin. —■ Hesiod. Giving calls for genius. — Ovid. If you can’t be a pine on the top of a hill Be a scrub in the valley— but be The best little scrub by the side of the rill; Be a bush if you can’t be a tree. — Douglas Malloch It appears to me that morality, study, and gayety are three sisters who should never be separated.— Voltaire Hope is like the sun which, as we journey towards it, casts the shadow of our burden behind us. —Samuel Smiles Resolve to be happy. Your joy and you shall form an invincible host against difficulties.—Helen Keller Stand porter at the door of thought.—Mary Baker Eddy Few save the poor feel for the poor.—^Letitia E. Landon SUBSCRIBE TO THE MIRROR COOL BARNS FOR COWS Wilmington, Ohio — Thirty cowi are living in air conditioned lux ury, while the remainder of the herd, probably very jealous, are living under normal conditions on the same farm. This is to test whether the milk and butterfat production can be kept high through summer months. Researchers at Ohio State uni versity have found that dairy cows produce more milk when the temp erature ranges from 30 to 75 de grees.

The gleaming rushes lean a thousand ways. Of leaves that slumber in a cloudy mass.

My childhood’s earliest thoughts are linked to thee; The sight of thee calls back the robins song. Who, from the dark old tree Beside the door, sang clearly all day long.

That kind of defense costs many billions. The nation is much better able to pay for it when the government cuts out needless spending. Yet some people are urging the federal government to build more electric plants and lines. This is unnecessary. Investor-owned companies—like CP&L—can supply all the additional electric power required for a fast-growing America. Electric power is a field where the government can save your tax dollars—not spend them. CAROLINA POWER A LIGHT COMPANY An investor-owned, taxpaying, public utility company
