GOOD PATHS
ESSENTIAL IN GARDEN. This is the time to make new paths. It is essential to a garden to have good paths. Concrete makes one of the most last-
ing, and is the cleanest and driest. Tar and sand is also a good material, and although the tarring is work for the summer, the formation of the paths should be done now. They must be well drained, and formed with a crown —tHat is, slightly higher in the centre. If raised too much they are uncomfortable to walk upon; all that is required is sufficient rise to throw off the water quickly.- Keep all weeds down and preserve a level surface, otherwise a path is soon ruined, no matter how well made.
