WHY NOT A BACK YARD
BOTH USEFUL AND BEAUTIFUL?
Generally speaking, the average back yard is not a place to be proud of. It’s usually
more or less littered with a trash. Many of them are eye-sores and disease breeders.
Atlanta is in the midst of a "cleaning up” campaign, and it certainly needs it. The
city is going to be cleaner this summer than it ever has been. So far. so good.
I hese cleaned up back yards are equal to several hundred acres. Wh’y not make* them
useful as wi ll as clean '
Does the high cost of living touch you ? The vegetable product of these how wasted
acres would cut thousands of dollars daily from our food bills this summer. Even a small
garden planted with tomatoes, beans, sweet pepper, squash, beets or other vegetables you
like will surprise you by the saving it will make
Don t you care to grow vegetableslf not. don’t you think beds of easily grown flowers,
such as geraniums, salvia, petunias, verbenas, nasturtiums, coleus, etc., will be a great ini
provement over a bar* >pot or wpo<l covorod yard ,
Are the fences unsightly .' There are a half dozen or more vines that will cover them
quickly with a sheet of living green during summer and fall.
Don t you think it s a good time now to make that back yard of yours either useful or
beautiful, or both, for the summer?
Our store has everything you need in seeds, plants, bulbs and fertilizers to do it. Come
and see us about it or phone.

assisted by rhe Rev. William T. Man

Vincent Astor, the clergyman did not
deliver it today. He will use it as the
basis for his sermon tomorrow.
The funeral was carried out quietly
and simply. Among the hymns sung
was "Nearer. My God. to Thee," which
"the hand on the Titanic played as the
vessel was sinking to her watery grave.
The church was bower of flowers,
many of which were from the green
houses on Colonel Astor’s country es
tate, Ferncliff.
