The Home Ground.

1t seems strange that so much
pride and car should be taken in
building and furnishing IL house,
and so little in realizing the posi-
bilities of its grounds. The one has
kept pace with all modern improve
ments, and the other, if not actually
retrograding, has at best made a very
tardy advance. The owners of sub
urban places appear to be Indifferent
to the Importance of an intelligent
planting of home grounds, ana usual
ly set their trees with mathematical
regularity, and dot their shrubs here
and there without the slightest re-
gard to the effect i'm the Landscape.
1t is rare that II see finely planted
grounds, and still more rare to find
q Judicious selection of trees. The
owners employ the best architects
and builders and decorators, and cx-
pend thousands of dollars upon their
houses, and then engage u few vii
lage laborers to grade the grounds
and plant some trees.
Generally, the trees are naples and
poplars and willows-all the labor
ers know about, very l~ikely--and the
chances are that they will be planted
without regard to future growth, so
that in a few years the grounds be-
come veritable tickets, and all beauty
OF form and effect is lost. :

gentleman was travelling in the South,

The Busy Woman's Garden.
From Harper's Bazaar.

From Harper's Bazaar.
The busy woman wants for her
summer garden such flowers as will
give the largest amount of bloom
throughout the season with the least
possible amount of care.
One of the best ANIMALS is the
phlox. 1t is of the very easiest cul-
ture. 1t begins to bloom early in
the season. If prevented from
developing seed, it blooms all sum
mcr. 1t comes in a great variety of
colors and shades, from pure white
to deep crimson. The two finest
varieties arc the white and the bright
rose. Grow these colors i'm a bed by
themselves, and you will be more
pleased with the result than YOU
will if you have half u dozen other
colors in it.
The petunia is another easily
grown plant. 1t blooms with
wonderful freedom, and keeps at it
until frost comes. If you go over
the bed oncea month and cut off the
ends OF the old branches, the supply
of flowers will be greatly increased,
as new branches will be sent out, ON
which a great many flowers will be
produced. The colors range through
all shades of rose and violet to pure
white. Many varieties are blotchcd
and marked in peculiar and striking
VANS. Some of fine nn,ynr corts oro
beautifully fringed and very large.
The calliopsis is Il charming
flower. 1t gives n great %profusion
OF most snowy, brilliant blossoms,
some of a rich golden yellow with
II maroon blotch ut the base of each
petal, others all maroon. 1t is ex-
c%ellent for cutting, because of it's
long stems.
Every garden should have a bed
of nasturtiums. If you want many
flowers from this plant, do not give

aud poplars and willows, huddled
together, where there might have
been half as many varieties of choice
tree, artistically arranged, are apt to
check the enthusiasm of u lover of
landscape effects.
Few seem to know that the plant
ing of the grounds is of more artistic
Importance than the house. Beauti-
full Surroundings and u comfortable,
well built dwelling are far more inn
pressiye than an elaborate structure
surrounded by a parody of tree
planting. The stately homes of
England and France owe more to
their ground than to the edifices
themselves. If all who contemplate
building would visit as many fine
grounds as they do houses, and take
as careful notes of the trees and
their values in rooms and their yela-
tive positions to the house as u whole,
there would be fewer mockeries of
planting.
Travelling through almost any
part of the United States, one can
not but be struck by the evident
ignorance of even the first laws of
landscape gardening, and of what is
new and good to plant. Where
there is one home surrounded by
finely planted grounds, there are
dozens that are quite the reverse.
This is u strong statement, but "a
little observation in almost any part
of the country will bear it out.
Truly Bacon has said that "men
build stately before they garden
finely"
Out of the dozens of elegant
homes that have seen go up during
the last few years, | can only select
two or three that display intelli-
gence in the planting of their
grounds. The grounds of ole cIaLo-
rate structure that cost thirty or forty
thousand dollars were consigned to
u laborer working on the place. lie
was told to plant trees and shrubs,
and to make the place look as well
as possible by the time the family
came down from the city in the
spring. He did the best he could,
but when q bill for two hundred
dollars or SO for trees was sent in,
the owner positively refused to pay
it. 1t was u "waste of money!" and
he could have got the trees cheaper
from the woods himself"
In planting grounds, it is of prime
Importance to make no mistake at
the start. The trees are growing,
and an error or lack of taste in the
beginning is emphasized more and
more as the years go by. Trees
should not be crowded, and should
not be made common by Close
proximity of too many of their OWL
species. They should be planted in
groups and singly, with due regard
to their neighbors and the landscape
and in such IL way as to display and
conceal, to reveal and screen, so that
every part of the grounds may DC q
charming retreat, or a sudden visit;
of delight and beauty.

To PREVENT WASHING OF ROADS.
The washing of the roads is due
to two faults in tho making of them.
One is the failure to round the sur
face, so that the water may flow off
to the sides. The other is the
absence of culverts to carry off the
water that thus flows from the road
bed. The too common water bars
on country roads are an injury,
rather than u benefit, for they soon
caIse the hollows thus made to be-
come deeper, and collect the water,
thus becoming soft every vehicle
passing digs out the hollow and
makes it worse. Culyerts should be
made under the road at proper dis
tinces to take the water from the
side bitches and lead it to the other
side, thus checking the flow ma
terially and preventing washing out
of the bitches. As often us may be
possible. the bitches should dis
charge their water off the road. But
even this method is only IL make
shift; the right way is to take the
water of the culverts in covered
drains, thus wholly avoiding the
m washing of the side bitches.

The Paper Till Fire.

The fire at the Tomahawk Pulp and
Paper Mill located at the Tomahawk
dam, was a very fortunate one. The
fire broke out in the fuel shed adjoining
q part of the boiler house, and in few
minutes the entire building was mass
of flames. The firemen were on duty
and used all possible haste in starting
the fire pump which was located in the
doomed building, but the flames were
rapidly gaining headway and thus
rendered the use of this stream impossi-
BILE, as the heat was intense. Fortunately
the pulp mill had a double fire
protection in a large rotary fire pump
in tie mill proper, and with two streams
from this large pump the fire was soon
checked and under control. For some
time past they have been rushed with
orders, running night and day, and the
shut down of week is of great loss.
Mr.. Pride, the manager, is a hustler,
and all possible haste is being made to
place the mill in running order.
Mr. T. A. Taylor, of Grand Rapids,
inspected the ruins i'll behalf of the
insurance company and pronounced
the building total loss. The insurance
was 5000 on the boiler house which will
be allowed in full.-Wausau Record.

nEMORIAL DAY.

Thursday last, the day set apart and
devoted to the commemoration of our
nations heroes, was an unusually quiet
one in the twin cities due to a much
needed rain which began at early morn
and continued almost without inter-
ruption during the entire day. The
march to the cemetery and all out
door services planned for the forenoon
| were therefore necessarily abandoned
The soldier dead. however, were not
forgotten. Thoughts of them remained
| with those who had always been nearest
and dearest and singly they wended
their way to the 'silent city" to cover
the brave with beautiful flowers.

The unfortunate incident which
occurred behind the scenes between
the last two acts can be labeled none
other than "carelessness" although the
results we are glad to say will not be as
serious as at first reported. Bert Smith
had the cartilage between the nostrils
Of the nose blown out by a blank
cartridge fired from a revolver in the
hands of John Carey. To do this the
revolver must certainly have been very
close to the young mans face and there
seems to have been no excuse for it in
such position. Bert has been a hard
sufferer, but is now improving with
chances of very small scar for life on
one side of the nose. This is but
another case of the long list of serious
accidents that come from a ''didn't
know twas loaded" story.

The st. Paul Road to Build From
Berlin Through the Heart of
WaupaCa County.

The eastern part of Waushara county,
Fremont, Weyauwega, Manawa, Symco
and Big Falls are right in line, indeed
very much so. The push which Mana
was active business men are making
for the county seat, has become noised
abroad and all the state knows about it.
Among the parties who have become
interested, and who have been investi-
eating our chances are the managers of
c. NJ. & st. Paul road. They have come
to the conclusion that they are good,
and see an opportunity to make a ten
strike for themselves out of the move
ment.
The st. Paul company has long de-
sired a more direct outlet for that part
of the Wisconsin Valley division north
of Wausau, than it now has, At the
present time the Northwestern road
gets the traffic from that section of the
country, because the St. Paul has to
carry everything over into Monroe
county in the western part of the state
Ill OluSI W SGG IL W MllWduk00 anu
Chicago over lis lines. The st. Paul
people have at last decided to get rid Of
this difficulty by building road north
from Berlin. 1t will run straight north
through the eastern part Of Waushara
county, striking Fremont and Weyau-
vega in Waupaca county thence north
ward to Manawa and up the Little
Wolf river valley touching Symco and
Big Falls, joining the valley division of
the road at Wausau. This will give the
st. Paul road direct outlet from the
northern country, something it has
long needed. The benefits to Waupaca
county and especially to the towns
through which the road runs cannot be
calculated. The road will pass through
a fine lot of potato country much of
which has only begun to develop along
this line.-Manawa Advocate.
