The next step, if the buildings are
likely to remain as they are for some
time, is to provide for proper amount
of tree shade. Always retain any large,
healthy trees you may have which are
not actually in your way. 1t is better
policy to curve the walk several feet
in order TO pass q tree than to cut
down the tree in order to have walk
just where you want it. In setting

sidered: First, viii the. tree, when it
reaches maturity. unduly shade or
darken any portion of the house? And
second, will il al maturity shut off any
attractive view from the house, Trees
and gross growing shrubs should al
ways be considered at maturitg. A
tree may be only ten feet high when
set. but if its mature growth will reach
twenty-five or more feet. the effect at
maturity on its surroundings must be
considered at the time of planting.
Do not dot trees and shrubs over the
space like checkers on a, board. Always
allow any abundance of room for a
wide and free expanse of lawn. In the
best class OF landscape work on a large
or small scale. straight lines are AS a
rule. avoided. Sharp corners or curves
are softened or modified by a grouping

of trees and shrubs suited to your soil
and climate, and with trees. see TO it
that the greater number are of up

Kilmarnock willow. Do not. as a rule.
on small grounds, have more than one
tree with red or white foliage. One
purple-leaf beech or one cut-leaf birch
would be sufficient contrast TO eight or
ten of the green-leaf types
In the matter of color, the flowers of
summer will supply this; or if these are
for any reason limited. the variety of
color may be obtained by the use of
low growing shrubs with a variety of
color in both foliage and flower.
AS we have suggested in regard to
Towering plants. the arrangement of
trees and shrubs should be such that
the tallest at ell times form the back

Permanent Planting.

There are few places so well calcu-
lated to be made permanently attract
i've as our country homes; ard so far
as the grounds go, this may be done at
small expense.
Usually, the space around country
houses is a liberal one, and the ex-
ercise of a. moderate amount OF skill
may result in a most attractive home.
Country people are not devoid of taste,
nor vet can they plead, with all their
work. lack of time. for there are
months when the farm work is not
pressing. which may be devoted to ar
ranging the home grounds. First OF
all is the necessary grading. By this
we mean an evenness Of slope. If there
are decided bumps and holes. the first
must be cut down and the latter nlieo
nm: but an even grade does not of ne
cessity mean a leveling of the grounds
ANY natural slopes which are easy and
gradual, should by all means be left

In small Kansas paper the other
day the column headed Local Notes
led off with this laconic announce
ment:, The cyclone season is near at
hand. Several are expected the present
month
April and May are the months for
the cyclone in the central valleys of
the country. The records of recent
years show that at about the first Of
May the cyclone season is at its height
although the frightful storm which
worked such havoc in and around St.
Louis last year did not occur until a
month later. Already there have been
two small storms of the cyclone order.
but the damage worked by these was
comparatively light.
Scientists have struggled with the
cyclone problem for many years, but
much of the mystery surrounding its
origin is unexplained: also the rea-
sons of the prodigious power it exerts
upon objects in its path. They agree,
however, on one thing, and that is the
name. Cyclone, they say, is a mis-
homer, the correct designation being
tornado, but the people who have ac-
tually wrestled with the monster and
have seen it tossing their residences
about in mldalr call il a cyclone and
cyclone it will be. Scientifically the
cyclone IS the storm that sweeps over
the South Atlantic ocean, with a di-
ameter of from 100 to LOCO miles.
The tornado travels in much smaller
form, but in its reduced dimensions il
has all the concentrated energy of the
ocean storm The diameter of the
tornado is seldom more than 100 yards
and frequently much less than that
1t has been known to travel straight
along a country road for more than q
mile, wrecking everything in its path
but not injuring the fences on either
side. The diameter of this tornado
could not have been more than so or
80 feet. but its power was almost be-
yond belief.
But the curious freaks worked by
the cyclone of the Kansas variety com
mand more attention than its tremen-
dous force. The latter was proven
last year in the St. Louis disaster
when great stone buildings were de-
molished, locomotives tossed about and
heavy steelwork twisted into weird
shapes. But about the vagaries of the
cyclone On one occasion the roof of
an eight-roOm house was lifted bodily,
carried 200 yards, half way into a
grove, where il seemed impossible that
it could have passed between the trees,
and left lying fiat, but upside down, in

house is carried away and converted
into kindling wood. while the rest of
the edifice is quite uninjured.
In one instance, in Iowa, half
double house was shattered to bits,
while the other half and the hall were
quite untouched, even the carpet on
the hall floor remaining unsoiled, and
the paper on the wall showed neither
spot nor scratch.
In another, the porch of a Kansas
house was cut away as neatly as
though with an ak, a queer contrast
being seen in d third case. where the
house was destroyed and the porch
left standing intact.
In Nebraska. the second story of an
eight-room house was taken off and
the first was left. so little shock being

as they were later. when the market

made an acre worth $40, while the
MANFRED part brought at the rate of

coat the roots when dipped in it. The
COW manure retains the moisture a
long time and furnishes food for the

2. Set the plants deep Most plants
grown in hotbeds are crowded, so that
the stems are long and tender. and
cannot bear either the hot sun or cold
wind, and the earth must be drawn up
TO them so as TO protect all but the
green leaves. Neglect of this causes
the death of thousands of plants.
3. The earth must be well firmed
about the roots. The test is made by
taking g single leaf with the thumb
and finger and pulling. If the plant
comes I'D it is improperly set, but if
the leaf breaks the plant is set firm
enough.
1 believe in an early garden. and am
willing TO take some risk of frost; and
in case it threatens, it does not take
long TO protect few rows in the
garden. There are several ways TO do
this, and even when the mercury is so

degrees by shutdown. and the wind is

usually set four feet apart, can each

pinned together and inverted over each
plant. Beans and corn can be covered
with sheets of newspaper. A single leaf

cover with light chaff, which contains
no seed, and we usually keep on hand
a supply of corn chaff from the shelter,
and find it the best material for pro-
tecting tender plants we have ever
seen. as it is very light.
In fighting insects of all kinds. be
vigilant and do not allow them TO get
the start of you. The worst pest we
have is the striped bug that eats the
melons and cucumbers, and no poison

they can be covered, and the bugs can

Some Points in Gardening.

1 wish to call attention to a few
points in gardening which I have found
TO be of special Importance;
The value of manure in maturing
crops early. While every one knows
that larger crops can be grown on rich
land, many have never observed that

market gardeners learn that a few

ence enough to enable the grower TO
catch the high price, and this is to
some extent true of most products.

The scene on board the United States warship Sea Serpent was highly realis- tic, and the audience attested their ap- preciation in demonstrative manner. The performers were called before the curtain twice during the evening, and applause was frequent. There is every indication that Montezuma of Mexico" will draw crowded houses during it's three nights engagement.
 The entire cast was good. Mr. Slater, Miss Louise Richards and MT. H. l.. Warehouse are deserving of special mention. The piece is a melodrama that appeals to the spectator, and is deserving of large houses at the re- maining performances.
