Rose Fence Lends Beauty Every new homeowner knows that although planting a new lawn may not be costly, fericing in that same lawn can be an expensive production! But here's good news: now it's possible for homeowners to p'an a beautiful living fence of roses, at a cost ef only pennies per foot! An unusual hybrid, Red Glory, has been developed as a non- sprawling, tall-growing, fast- growing fence that grows very upright and compact and is ever-blooming from early spring to late fall. 'Flowering with bright red roses from top te bottom, this amazing variety rapidly devel- ops into an attractive, thickly foliaged, impenetrable barrier. Providing a low-cost answer 'o the homeowner's fencing prob- lem, it is specially mass-pro- duced in order to reduce the cost per plant. A special type of propagation, not used for most roses, was necessary in order to make it available for use in mass' quan- tity on an economical basis. Unlike regular rose bushes, the Red Glory fence can be trimmed and trained with rega- lar hedge shears. Fast-growing, it attains 4 feet or more the very first year, and between 5 to 6 feet by the sec- ond year. Home gardeners can expect almost continuous production of semi - double flower clusters, starting the very season of planting. A dense hedge or border is achieved quickly by installing the plants 18 inches apart. Less density is achieved by spacing the plants approximately 24 inches apart. Because the plant is self-root- ed, it is apt to spring back quickly even if frozen to. the ground in the severe-weather areas of the country. As an added bonus, the cut flowers from this living fence provide colorful, long - lasting blooms that are an interior dec- orator's delight. But above all, the Red Glory's radiant colors will provide a beautiful frame to any yard or garden, drastically reducing land-scaping costs while im- measurably increasing pride and pleasure in your home.

Organize Laundry To speed the dull chore of doing the wash, an Idea Centre advises at least three sorting baskets -- for whites, colored items and "special". If space allows, add baskets for wash- and-wear, washable wool and decorator or brightly colored items. An excellent arrangement is to have six plastic clothes bas- kets lined up on shelves, three on top and three on bottom. For a deluxe custom installation, you might consider installing built-in bins beneath a counter. Another idea offered by the Centre, supervised by laundry specialists at Maytag, is to use a set of bins or drawers to sort clean clothes after laundering. Just mark the bins with the names of family members -- 'Dad", "Mom"', ':Sis", etc. You might label one bin "Kitchen", to use when sorting out dish towels, table linens and aprons. Then, make each member of your family responsible for gett- ing his own clean clothes back to his room. Share the work! Laundry really isn't a hobby as yet, but you'll find it can be less work if you let the other members of the family heip or- ganize it. New Homes Remodelled | Today's home designs are often the inspiration for . re modeling older homes, accord- ing to the Weyerhaeuser Com- pany, leading wood products firm. For example, many owaers of older homes are a cue from new homes that feature real wood paneling, and are modernizing with wood inter- iors. The attractiveness of wood paneling has proven itself with favorite hardwoods such as wal- nut, elm, oak and birch that come in several fashion tones -- a warm, lively red, shades of blue, and other colors -- yet retdining the natural figura- tion and character of wood. These add warmth and beauty to every room and today are designed te. be as practical as they are smart. Weyerhaeuser pre - finished paneling, for instance, features a new synthetic resin finish that adds richness and charac- ter to the wood and is highly resistant to dirt, grease, water, inks and household chemicals. Building codes in most com- munities regulate room addi- tions as well as new construc- tion. Make certain you and your home improvement contractor are aware of local building code requirements.
