PLANTING OUT ROSES.
some Points for the Housewife TO
Observe When Setting out
Her Plants.

In the cultivation of roses much de-
pends ON the start. In the first place
procure the best plants possible for
planting, not necessarily the largest,
the Oldest or the finest sorts at highest
prices, but endcavor to obtain such
plants as Hre stoclSy, well rooted, natur-
ally strong growers, and such as by ma
ture are apt to be free from disease.
A good rule, however, would
be TO plant as soon as all dan
ger Of frost is over and the ground
is warm. Nothing is gained by
putting out plants while the ground
IS cold and there is likelihood of frost
or very cold nights. Field-gTown roses
must necessarily be planted out earlier
than pot-grown stock, as they do best
when planted in dormant condition.
They also may require some pruning,
if not already pruned when sent out
by the nurseryman or florist. First,
spade up the soil TO depth of is inches,
or as the gardener would say, two
spades deep" which depth may seem
to the novice 10 be rather unnecessary
but It is quito essential that the roots
have plenty OF room in which TO work
Second, remove from the bed one-third
Of the soil and replace It with the same
bulk OF well-rotted manure (well-rotted
cow manure Is unexcelled for this pur-
pose), ia which has been Incorporated
some finely chopped sod. Spade this
compost thoroughly into the sod in the
bed, and with tho back of the spade
mash all clods or Jumps. BoNr in mind
that this spadlng and working Of tho
soil must only be done when the soil
Is In good condition as regards moist
ure, for II the soil is worked when pasty
or too wet, the chances are that it Will
be ruined for tho whole season, until
the action of frost and winter weather
imparts 10 IL again its natural friable-
ness.
In setting out the roses in tho bed
do not forget the allimportant flrmlng
of the soil about tho base Of the plants.
This should be done by trodding the
soil well with the feet, Immediately
about the base of each plant, but not
over oil the surface Of the bed.-Wom.

Taking Air without Going out.

Elderly people and others who may
be temporarily house-bound and pre-
vented from enjoying a regular daily
stroll outdoors can devise fair substi-
tute as follows: Bundle up as IL for
the usual constitutional, select large
sunny room, preferably at the top Of
the house, open wide the windows, shut
of the heat and move around briskly,
going to the window and inhaling the
fresh air deeply through the nostrils.
We have often called attention TO the
fact that house air, with its many inn
purities, overheated condition and gem
eral lifelessness, is one Of the principal
predisposing causes to- colds and ca
tarrhal affections. Where n patient or
invalid is confined 20 bed, if the shOul-
ders are kept we'll covered and the
head lightly protected, the windows
may be opened and the room flushed
with fresh air without any special risk,
provided the current docs not strike
them too directly. The danger from
want of proper ventilation is decidedly
greater.
Deep inhalations of air at the open
window, taken gently through the nose,
impart an enlivening gandtonic cinhuence
TO the whole nervous system, which can
soon be demonstrated by u personal
experiment.-Health Magazine.

COTTON DRESSES.
A Good supply OF Them should he
Made I'D Early in the

Make a. good supply of plain cotton
dresses and aprons early in the season,
before it is time 10 prepare more elab-
crate gowns. Skirts and all summer
underwear should be certainly out of
The way before May. There is nothing
gained and a great deal lost in putting
of this plain sewing until late. If this
work Is done early in the spring it will
not be half so hard 10 do as It Is IL II
is left until the warm days Of late
spring or carly summer. II saves time,
when several persons are working to-
gether, TO adopt the method Of shops
and each one take one part of the work.
The cutter should cut, tho Ghemmer hem,
and the sttccher use tho machine. 1t
saves time, even when ono person is
working, TO cut out n number of gar
ments of tho same kind at once and do
first all the work OF one kind on them;
then all tho work of another until
the work on all is done. There Is always
time lost in changing worl-in get
ting ones hand in again." A woman
who is sewing every day soon finds that
her hands lose their cunning IL she
drops her work for any length Of time,
and IL takes some time before she can
do it as well as before. Tho moral.
therefore. is play when you play, rest
when the rest time comes, but work
steadily at any task you have to do
when you do work, IL you would do
your work with the least labor. II is
the dropping Of work and picking IL up
again that wears on the strength more
