Amateur gardencraft; a book for the home-maker and garden lover . e, keep theplant to one straight stem until it reaches theheight where you want the head to form. Thencut oif its top. Branches will start below.Leave only those near the top of the stem. Thesewill develop and form the head you want. Iconsider the Lilac one of our very best shrubs, because of its entire hardiness, its rapid develop-ment, its early flowering habit, its beauty, itsfragrance, and the little attention needed by it.Keep the soil about it rich, and mow off thesuckers that will spring up about the parentplant in great numbers each season, and it willask no more of you. The chief objection urgedagainst it is its tendency to sucker so freely. Iflet alone, it will soon become a nuisance, butwith a little attention this disagreeable habit canbe overcome. I keep the ground about my plantsfree from suckers by the use of the lawn-mower.They can be cut as easily as grass when yovmgand small. If there is a more beautiful shrub than thewhite Lilac I do not know what it is. For cut- 6». SHRUBS flower work it is as desirable as the Lily of theValley, which is the only flower I can compare itwith in delicate beauty, purity, and sweetness. The Persian is very pleasing for front posi-tions, because of its compact, spreading habit, and its slender, graceful manner of branchingclose to the ground. It is a very free bloomer, and a bush five or six feet high, and as manyfeet across, will often have hundreds of plume-like tufts of bloom, of a dark purple showinga decided violet tint. The double varieties are lovely beyond descrip-tion. At a little distance the difierence betweenthe doubles and singles will not be very notice-able, but at close range the beauty of the formerwill be apparent. Their extra petals give theman airy grace, a feathery lightness, which theshorter-spiked kinds do not have. By all meanshave a rosy-purple double variety, and a doublewhite. No garden that lives up to its privilegeswill be wit
