NEW YORK, SUNDAY, OCTOBER With Brooklyn Masons News of I he mor Masonic Temple, Forest St. and Summerficld Ridgcwood, on Saturday evening, Nov. 7. This affair is held annually to raise funds for a Christmas party to be given to the poor children ot the community.

Cassia Lodge, 445, presented life membership certificates to the following members of the class of 1901 at its communication on Thursday evening: Leo K. Bennett, Samuel How to Plant Trees And Care for Them Information for the Novice in This Phase of Home Gardening Digging Hole First and Most Important Step By JANE LESLIE KIFT This article was written for the special benefit of those who may be setting out their first trees this Fall.

After you have" planted a few trees, you will understand the right way to. plant and the after care which must be given each speci gested is obtainable, you can use plenty of well-rotted manure. When Setting Trees Do Not Plant Too Deeply When setting your trees, see that all bottom roots are cut off in a clean, careful manner. Set the trees that their roots take a natural position and are not cramped. Fill in with good soil, leaving no open spaces, especially under the roots.

Be careful not to plant too deep. You can usually see by the soil mark on the trunk just how deep the tree stood in the nursery row. As the soil is filled In. tnmp it well, and when the hole is filled to within an Inch of the top, cease tamping and smooth the surface As soon as the- trees are planted, spread over the surface a layer of manure. This layer should extend foot beyond the line of the newly-made holes.

This will help in conserving the moisture which is so necessary if the trees are to live. by the blood of the heathen became the heathen or "heather," for short. Then, aside from the romance which surrounds its quaintness makes an appeal to any one seeking a plant that is a bit unusual and, as a third asset, it is easily managed, which makes it practical for house use. The following rules are for the benefit of those who tell me they have heather plants left over' from last season and also for those who may be growing it for the first time: Old plants will soon be beginning to make new growth. When they do they must be trimmed back rather severely.

Unless this is done they will become too tall. Then the sides should be trimmed so the air can circulate freely. Heather has one known enemy which must be controlled. This is the red spider, an insect which in the case of heather can only be controlled by a weekly spraying of some nicotine preparation or any other insecticide your seedman- may recommend. Heather will do well in an eastern or northern window.

It requires water whenever you see the surface of the soil in the pot is dry. Always keep the surface ot the soil quite loose. When the Spring comes and you plant your heather in the open, prepare the soil carefully, adding plenty of leaf mold and humus. Most growers' use little manure with heather, and many believe that It should never be used. During the coldest months of the year mulch the plants with a light covering of leasves.

Plants in the open should also be top-dressed once or twice a season with equal parts of soil, sand and peat moss. In the house a plant of heather will remain in bloom from Christmas until Easter, and in the open from July until September. Answers to Queries From Readers When is the time to plant Japanese iris? Do they grow in any soil? ELSIE O. P. The blooms of the Japanese irises are six to ten inches in diameter and they will grow In almost any soil that does not become too dry in Summer, but they prefer a warm, sunny location.

The best time to plant is July, and from that on until the middle of September, They must have plenty of time to establish themselves before cold weather sets In. -if they are- planted rather late they should be freely mulched after the ground is frozen In late autumn to keep the ground from heaving. Is it true that peonies vill not grow well too close to the trunks of trees? Mine do not do well and they are all close to trees. Mrs. GEORGE L.

O. They should not be planted too close- to trees or shrubs whose spreading roots will rob them of nourishment and moisture, but partial shade from trees at a distance is beneficial. Is there any special way of setting a lily bulb in the hole? Mrs. LOUISE H. H.

Be sure to plant the bulbs right side up; most Spring-blooming kinds. have a pointed top and a kind of ring at the bottom, where the roots were attached. This applies to such bulbs as tulips or hyacinths. Liiy bulbs have scales pointing toward the top and should be tilted slightly so that water will not lodje In the scales and cause them to rot. H.

Yes, and this is true of no other tulip. When shall I transplant a rubber plant that I know is potbound? FRANKLIN G. E. You may transplant a rubber plant at any season. Can you give me the name of a fast-growing shrub to plant on a dividing line between my property and my neighbor's? this is a sunny stretch.

I haven't a great deal of money to spend on my yard, but I have plenty of time to care for the plot. JEANETTE H. S. Almost any shrub would grow in such a location. I am personally fond of pyrns japonica, syrlnga and flowering almond, but all of these grow rather tall.

In city gardens the Japanese barberry is quite popular for line planting. However, I would look over a good catalogue and read the descriptions of the various varieties and would do the planting this Fall. When should I divide a full-grown hedge? C. M. K.

It would be better to transplant in the Fall. Unless you have had some experience In setting shrubbery would suggest that you get a landscape gardener to do this work.

On arrival the trees must be unpacked, and if the material cannot be immediately planted, it mutt be1 "heeled in." The first step in actual planting is to dig a hole one foot wider all arcund than the spread of the roots, so that the tree can be placed In an upright position without bending even one rootlet. The soil where you are planting any tree should be at least 24 inches deep.

In case you are uncertain about the quality of the soil, exca vate a much larger hole and fill the entire cavity with rich loam. Should your soil be largely of clay, the bottom of the hole must be loosened: if possible, better dig. through the clay. If your soil it good, dig deep enough to fill in portion of the hole with stone or other material to perfect or improve the drainage. Regarding the Kind of sou in which a tree is most likely to take hold, let me state that you cannot exercise too much care in the manner in which you dig the hole: It must be large and the soil must be rich if you are to attain satis factory results.

The very best is that from a meadow where the top soil and sod can be mixed together. If you are planning to plant a number of trees, you really should begin a year before and make a compost pile, with a layer of good loam and a layer of well-rotted manure. This must be turned over several times.
