HENRY EICHBOLZ, Waynesboro, Pa. Planting Borders of Ponds. There is a certain class of very or- namental plants which, though not thriving in the water, nevertheless like to live at the edge, to extend their long roots into it and to benefit by the coolness of the soil and the mois- ture of the atmosphere. This orna- mentation of watersides has equal value with the use of aquatics and is its necessary adjuncts, a connecting link with the land plants. The humid nature of the soil is favorable to plants of ample foliage, as well as many handsome hardy flowering plants which thrive in such locations. The choice of plants for borders of ponds will depend of course upon their size and contour; it is well to dispose the plants in colonies of three or four or more, arranging for artistic and irregular effect by massing groups of dwarf plants with taller ones, slender plants against stocky and flowering varieties. We append a list of foliage plants for bordering ponds: Gunnera scabra, G. manicata, Rheum Emodi, R. palmatum. Acanthus molle, A. M. latifolius, H. spinosisslmus, H. spinosus, Funkla Sleboldiana, F. ovata, P. O. marginata. Polygonum Sachalinensi, P. cuspida,tum. Podo- phyllum, Emodi, S
