LITTLE LAND NEEDED.
Gardeners Make q Mistake When
They Try to Cultivate Too
Large . Tract.

Persons engaged in various indus
trial occupations often grow tired of
them. and long to be gardeners and
fruit growers in the country. One of
the commonest mistakes is in regard
to the quantity of land required.
What they have in their minds prob
ably nine times out of ten, is buying
a farm" But large amount of land
is not needed by the amateur horti-
culturist. In general farming, when
land is to be devoted not only to till
age, but to meadows, pasture and
woodland, it is different Yet the ma
jority of farmers have more land than
they can possibly manage to the best
advantage. Leaving out of the ques-
tion commercial gardening and or
charding on big scale by capitalists
who use machinery and large force
of hired help, the best results from the
kitchen and fruit garden are obtained
from small areas intensively culti-
vated. Your pair of hands must be de-
pended upon mainly to do the work;
the garden may often be expanded be-
yond the proper limit.
It is easy for a gardener to plant
much more in the spring than he can
possibly well care for during the sum-
mer. Amateurs are often tempted to
plant too much. It is not true that if
small garden, carefully cultivated,
pays we'll, one several times its size,
indifferently cared for, will be pro-
portionately profitable. Small fruit
are very exacting, and one person can
care only for limited areas as they
should be cared for. There is moth
ing in their restrictions and limita-
tions deterrent to any one desirous of
engaging in horticultural pursuits. A
small amount of land can be obtained
In the country for a small outlay. One
can cultivate just such an area as his
physical strength permits, making
every inch of it equal to the finest gar
den, with profit and satisfaction.-S.

except for a small decayed strip of
bark on one side. 1t was from this
spot, about four feet from the ground,
that the fungus grew. At the time of
the taking of the picture the mush-
room was not yet "a hours old.
After the photograph was made the
fungus was cut from the tree and
taken to an authority on such sub
jects, who was asked to state wheth-
er it was a poisonous variety or not.
After brief inspection he diagnosed
the specimen as Valvaria Bombycina,
an edible variety that is considered by
naturalists to be one of the most beau
tlfu1 mushrooms known. The speci-
men was given the authority" and
he had his wife cook it. When he was
seen the next morning he was enjoying
the best of health, and wished to know
where the tree was located that grew
such paltaable fruit.-Indianapo

PUTTING CLOTHES AWAY.
Women who Know How Can Make +,
Smart Appearance.

| The woman who knows how to put
away her belongings is not only neat.
but economical and generally smart In
appearance. When she comes in from
a walk she never hangs up her coat by
the loop inside the collar; if she puts
it away in the closet, she uses coat
hanger-if she leaves it around the
room. knowing she may need it soon,
that will keep it In shape The skirts
of her gowns never have stringy look
because they are always hooked and
then hung by two loops. For a tailor
made skirt she uses small coat hang
er with the ends bent down a little;
this keeps the skirt in excellent shape
and causes it to hang in even folds.
The strings of her underskirts are tied
and the garment is hung by the loops.
thus never showing hump where it
has rested on the hook. For the same
reason her shirtwaists are always hung
by the armholes. unless they have
hanging loops. Handsome waists
have both sleeves and stuffed with tis-
sue paper, and are then laid In drawers
of boxes.
Shoes are easily kept in shape by
slipping pair of trees into them as
soon as they are removed from the feet !,
if trees are not available, newspaper
will do, if it is stuffed in tight. 1t is
well to roll each veil on a stiff piece of
paper; a single fold will often spoil the
set of a veil and sometimes even mar
the expression of the face. Gloves
should always be removed by turning
them wrong side out; they should then
be turned back again, blown into
shape and each finger smoothed out.
Ties, especially four-in hand or golf
ties, should be hung to avoid creasing.
Hats, of course, should be kept out
of the dust and placed so that the
trimming will not be disarranged. This
disposition depends 80 much on the hat
and the available space that each wo-
man must use her own ingenuity. How
ever, it is safe to say that no hat should
be laid fiat down on shelf. Furs, also,
should be protected from dust, and
muff should always be stood on end

The Parents Part.

The Richmond News of recent dat
produces in it's editorial columns an ex
tract from an article by Maj. ThOs, A
Blackford. we'll known in this city
and son of DIR. Benjamin Blackford
Supt. of the Western State Hospital
The article is headed 1.-The Boy anG
His SCHOOL, and has attracted much
attention. The News says:
Major Blackford discusses with un
usual frankness and accuracy the pro
blem which perplexes so many par
ents-how to make the boys study and
behave themselves in their schools
He speaks evidently from extensive ex-
perience and close observation. His
conclusion is that the parents fail in
doing their part. He says:
The school is powerless when it is
not sustained by the parent. 1t must
not be only sustained, but it must
have the sympathy of the parent. The
same decorum should be observed by
the parent to the boy criticising his
school, as that observed by one parent
should the boy dare to criticise the Ot'
her, for such is the schools relation.
The disrespectful boy at home is in
variably the one who is disrespectful
at school. Take an interest in the
boys school, visit it, consult with the
principal. get his ideas, give him
yours. You are both working for the
same result, and be is as much i'll
terested in making a success of your
boy as you are to have him. He will
relish working with you, not against
you. Sustain him on'all occasions.
Do not expect him to do more than
you can do, but by uniting with him
both will accomplish what neither
can alone, and instead of a disgusted,
unhappy, discontented baby you will
have man.
This is entirely correct. Perhaps it
is not going too far to say that the
average parents sending child to
school undertakes to put the RESPONSE
bility for not only the child's educa-
tlon, but its morals on the teacher,
and then enters into a kind of tacit
conspiracy to belittle and '-nderm1ne
the teachers influence by permitting
criticism of the m methOds employed
and by siding with the child when
there are clashes between the wills of
instructor and pupil. tits impossible,
as Major Blackford says, for teacher
to get the best results or any satlsfact-
ory results without the cordial CO.
operation and support Of parents. A
boy who finds that bis side of the stor y
is accepted at home, that his com
plants are listened to and his grie-
vances magnified and that be receives
sympathy and petting where really he
deserves punishment inevitably be-
comes careless, disobedient and sui
len scholar.
The part of the parent is to uphold
the teachers authority, to show live
interest in the child's study and pro-
gress, to give all the home influence
in the direction of stimulating study
and promoting obedience and discip-
line. No teacher can control a boys
mind or conduct against the trend of
home surroundings. The teacher can
do half, but not more than half. The
parents must do the other half and ia
case of failure to do it must accept the
and the disastrous.
many times heart-breaking, results.
