White, Of Spartanburg, Dies Funeral services for Edward Zimmerman White, 56, prominent Spartanburg real estate dealer who died at his home, 647 Nor wood street, Spartanburg, Tuesday afternoon, February 11th, after an illness of two days, were con ducted at the residence last Thursday morning at 11 o’clock by Dr. Anthony W. Dick. Burial followed in the Greenlawn Memo rial gardens. For many years Mr. White was outstanding in the business and civic life of Spartanburg. He was a native of the Glenn Springs community of Spartan burg county, where he was born July 23, 1884, the son of the late Calvin and Medora White. In 1900, he moved to Spartan burg and was connected with the Floyd L. Lyles department store for a number of years before en tering the clothing business for himself as president of the firm the combination giving a most pleasing effect. These gardens may be establish ed anywhere, except in dense shade, or in a soggy area. A sun ny slope is the very best location, sloping toward the east; the southwest would be the next best selection, because while the plants enjoy the sunlight they prefer not being subjected to its intensity during the warmest part of the day. A hillside or mound may be transformed into a rockery or rock garden by sinking rocks into the soil, allowing the smoothest side of the rocks to appear up ward. If we do not use a mound of a natural formation we build a mound of rich earth and sink into it rocks of various sizes and shapes. We never wish it to ap pear as a pile of stones, with soil thrown among them. To promote grace and beauty of effect, this mound may be ter raced, by way of diversion, and when the rocks are pressed into the soil make a flag-stone walk on the crest of the terrace. The planting soil should be at least 1 foot in depth. The material com posing this is one-third good, black soil; one-third leaf mold; and one-third sand. The addition of leaf mold supplies plenty of organic nourishment besides ren dering porosity to the volume. The sand provides some drainage bu^ retains some moisture. A lit- slacked lime sprinkled in tK^* mixture corrects acidity in the leaf mold. Planting In planting the rock garden we have a vast amount from which to select. The ideal rock garden plant should be a hardy perennial, a very free blooming and not too spreading plant, and of dwcrf stature. J Suitable plants are crocus, daf fodils, Hyacinths, Iris, Oxalis, Dwarf Alyssum, Scarlet Ageratum, Dlanthus, white and scarlet Gyp- sophelia, Hypericubo, crinkled Petunia, all colors of Verbena, and violets galore. These are arranged with tallest at highest points and planting in a height descendancy toward the base of the garden. Plant bulbs in the autumn and all seed just as soon as the ground is warm—around the Vernal Equinox in March. How about Perennial Peas? Let us not lose the opportunity for growing them this year. It is a true perennial vine of lovely white, lavender, red-purple and pink panacles of blooms from May until Christmas in this latitude. • This vine is very tanacious to life, for once we get it started on our grounds it will thrive and bloom for scores of years. They have flourished on Halcyon Dale Floral Grounds 20 years and have not lost one iota of their beauty. This is a pure proof of their satis fying qualities. Matilda Bell, Co. Home Dem. Agent.
