DR.. Harcourt is making one of the
prettiest little homes in the city of his
place on second street. The grounds,
and the two lots south of his house,
are sown to grass seed, with rows of
trees and shubbery around the edges
Several flower beds havei been set out in
stumps Of hollow cottonwood trees, in
the yard, and these look neat and pict-
uresque. The doctor has also a fine
garden, a new barn, and is getting his
home very comfortably and Handsomely
arranged.
A new scheme for watering trees has
been invented by Ed Sloan, and it prom
ises to revolutionize tree growing in the
city. 1t consists of a pipe an inch in
diameter, and s%harpened at one end, to
be fastened at the end of a hose and
then inserted down in the ground to the
roots of the tree. The pipe has a. half
dozen small holes near the end, and
through these the water soaks the roots
of the trees thoroughly. The trouble
with many of the trees which have been
set out about the city, is that their
growth has been retarded by the Excess
sive dryress of the soil about the roots.
and this simple device promises to OBJ
viate the difficulty.
