Try to look at your home with the eyes of a stranger as though seeing it for tJie first time and probably you will no tice or think of some improvement that has not occurred to you before. If your own home is all that is de sired perhaps you can encourage and help some friend or neigWbor to make improvements. Why should we use plantings of shrubs at the base of buildings? A building of any kind is an ar tificial creation with straight, formal lines out of harmony with nature and the surrounding landscape. It is a conspicuous object and standing alone does not form an attractive or pre possessing picture. What we want to do is to make buildings harmonize with the sur rounding landscape, fit in their sur roundings and make a part of an at tractive picture. Foundation plant- j ing of shrubs will tie the building into the surrounding landscape, make the building less conspicuous, softening ih3 hard, straight lines and thus make a more pleasing impression on the eye. An attractive sweep of lawn with cart fully chosen foundation plant ings will present a pleasing picture, every part in harmony and essential to the whole, an effect impossible with a bare building on bare ground or even wiih trees and shrubs plant ed hit or miss without a definite plan of effect desired. The ultimate effect should be visualized in the beginning and improvements made with this completed picture in mind. The sim plest cottage may be made attrac tive and picturesque, an essential p«rt of its surroundings with a little ahought and labor, planting the right thing in the right place to get har mony of line and color. Begin now *0 study your own dwelling place and moke it a place of beauty. WHEN YOU BUILD YOUR KNOLLWOOD HOME Consider the effect of the iron work, grilles at the windows, steel railing for the stairs, radiator covers and things of steel and iron that mean so much toward mak ing a home beautiful and enhancing in appearance. And the grounds—surround them with ornamental iron fences, decorate them with ornamental iron work, lamps, benches and gates. We are equipped to do this work—we have the knowledge, the material and the ability. Our expert ad vice and estimates cheerfully giveai.
