One of the most interesting events of the year in the Redwood Empire is the annual Scotia garden contest. As is rvell known, Scotia, Humboldt County, Calif'., is located on the Redwood Highway, 255 miles north of San Francisco, and is entirely owned by The Pacific Lumber Company, which takes pride in the impression made by its torvn on travelers over this famous highway.

The company's efforts to beautify the town by maintaining gardens around their offices and other public buildings is one step in the evolution of garden interest. The big factor, however, is the well kept gardens around the homes themselves.

To stimulate interest in these gardens of the employees the company origiriated the garden contest in 1921 with four capital prizes and four honorable mention awards.

Changes have been made occasionally until now there are four capital prizes, ten $10.0O prizes and ten $5.0o prizes. Awards are made by a committee of garden authorities from other points. This committee changes each year. Capital prize rvinners in one year may compete the following year for one of the lesser prizes only.

This year the awards were made as follows:

First prize. ..Mr. and Mrs. T. P. Greene

Second prize.. ..Mr. and Mrs. H. E. Thompson

Third prize. Mr. and Mrs. James Nelson

Fourth prize. Mr. and Mrs. H. R. Barker

It is interesting to note that the Thompson garden, this year in second place, has been winning prizes for 15 consecutive years.

The capital prizes were originally maintained by individuals among the principals of the company in memory of former officers of the organization, but after a short time the company took over the job and now gives the prizes in memory of the same individuals, Messrs, C. W. Pennoyer, Temple E. Dorr and Simon J. Murphy, and in honor of Mr. John H. Emmert, chairman of the board of The Pacific Lumber Company.

The city fathers of many towns could well take h tip from Scotia's experiences and crystallize the love of gardens among their citizens to the credit of their communities.

Nestling in the Eel River valley between barriers of wooded hills, its setting lends itself to making Scotia a beauty spot by nature. The development of gardens atound the homes merely enhances nature's work.

Probably the beauty of the gardens in Scotia accounts for its reputation as the most attractive industrial town in the country, and no doubt it would compete successfully with any town of equivalent size whether industrial or not.
