THE RIGHT SPIRIT.
Citizens OF Lowell, Mass. Recognize the
Value OF Good Roads.

Citizens OF Lowell, Masa.. Recognize the
Value OF Good Roads.
AT meeting of wheelmen and other
citizens of Lowell, Mass, held for the
purpose of devising plans for lettering
streets and highways, the following
"plank" was adopted:
.In the highways of country, one
can read the character OF the people who
dwell therein. In the streets OF a city,
one can read history. Our streets and
highways tell tales to every stranger
that visits MS for good or evil. AS citi-
zens. we have an active interest in the
welfare and prosperity Of our city and
state, in the honesty and integrity OF
our officials, In the wise and economic
expenditures OF our money.
"Of the internal working and manage
ment OF the municipal machinery we
may know nothing; but of its outward
appearance, we may know everything.
by their works We shall know them
We believe that the most practical,
economic and beneficial method 10 build
up q successful and prosperous city Is
ina the practical and economic construc-
ton of good roads and streets. We be.
licvc In a road commission of trained
and experienced men Independents OF
the dictates and authority OF petty poll
ticians. We believe that good roads
should be first built under the super
vision and direction OF this commission
In the best and most thorough mannel
and kept in that condition; that the un
licensed and unlimited disturbance o
our streets and ways should be pro
'hibited."
This is the spirit that should promp
the people of every city and communit.

py finish their purpose TO enjoy goo

PROTECTION IN WINTER.
How to Care EFFECTIVELY for Young Trees
and Tender Shrubs.

How to Care Effectively for Young Trees
and Tender shrubs.
The aim in giving any kind OF winter
protection Is merely 10 preserve the
gains made in root or top growth dur
ing the preceding season. At in the
illustration is shown young tree well
protected both by stake and mound.
a few stones piled around the stem,
as shown at b, will often do very well,
at least are much better than no pro-
lection at all, but will not prevent in
Jury from rabbits and mice, as the
mound is quite liable to do. Young
trees with little root, when left exposed
TO the sweeping winds without support,
usually are swayed back and forth un-
iii funnel-shaped cavity is formed
around the base, as may be seen at c,
endangering the life of the tree from
the driving out of the already scant
root supply. or perhaps by being en-
tirely blown over, as seen at d. Young
e,ergreens, with their comparatively
heavy tops, are particularly subject TO
disbursement or partial uprooting by
the winters winds, and may be held In
position by stout Strings laSteheu W
the stem and TO small stakes driveninto
the ground few feet from the base OF
| the tree. as shown at G. Small compact
evergreens are liable 10 be broken down
by heavy snowfall, and the most nat
ural protection perhaps is the one sug.
gestcd at {, consisting of n sort OF root
made of two pieces of board. Tender
shrubs may be treated In variety OF
ways. At q we have shrub protected
by an inverted barrel. To make n sure
thing still surer. the other head might
be taken out also, the barrel filled with
dry leaves and again covered. AZ !
we see the shrub wrapped In canvas
or muslin; at protected by straw ol
straw mating. A simple way of GOV
ering small. tender shrubbery Is b,
means of sods, as illustrated at j; bu
ordinary soil. as at A. will do about a
well.-Farm and Home.

bill that shall preserve the best sugges-
tons contained in the private bills.
Illinois is poorer by millions yearly
because of its bad roads. In large sec
tions OF the state hauling is impractl-
cable during at least 60 days OF each
year. and during 90 more much less than
full loads can be hauled. The loss falls
mainly on the farmers, but the towns
men participate in it.
LEGISLATORS will do we'll 10 remember
that new and remarkably well organ
lied force has come into the political
field. and that IL Is force resolute for
good roads. We refer, of course, TO the
wheelmen. There are districts In which
the cycling clubs hold balance OF pow
er, and they will be apt TO make II felt
ngainst those who are not active In
favor OF road improvement Less In
number than the wheelmen, but never
theless a strong and continually IN

hemently ms the cyclers, and they, UNI

for they are purchasers OF horse flesh
and are ready to pay good prices Tor

We arc aware that there are few
rural districts in which the Importance
OF the road question is underestimnted

Is the farmer. Indiana and Ohio now

Every Description.
During the winter months Is the
time to make cuttings OF such trees and
shrubs as IL Is desirable TO increase.
Ounces, currants, gooseberries and
grapes are readily increased by cut
tings. In the case of shade trees will
lows and poplars are easily grown from
cuttings, but the great majority OF
trees need 10 be raised from seeds, lay
ers, or by budding or grating. But
when il comes TO the Towering shrubs
which adorn our lawns. cuttings are
the chief reliance of propagators. The
time to make them Is while vegetation
Is dormant, and IL Is better done at
least month or more before spring
comes. The beautiful Golden Bell,
Weigla. Mock Orange, Spirea, Duetzia
and Athaea among many others are
easily raised in this way.
The best shoots for the purpose are
those OF last years growth. The ex-
act length is not particular, so that two
or three joints are included in each
one. About nine inches is good length
for most sorts. though grapes having
the joints far apart may be foot IN
length. 1t is believed that when the
lower part is cut just below an eye. that
roofing is easily accomplished, so cut
tlngs are usually made in that way. IL
Is not so essential at the upper end
where the cut is made, but as the bud'
push from the joints all wood above the
highest one Is useless. After the cut
tings are made place them in a cellar
buried up in sand or earth, with but the
