PLANTING SCHOOL GROUND
RESULTS ACCOMPLISHED LARGELY BY
CHILDREN N BEAUTlF1lNG SCilOOL
YARDS AT ROCHESTER,, n. Y.

Less than two years ago, says Susan Huntins-
ton Hooker in Country Life in America. de-
scribing the work of school beautifying in Roch-
ester n. V we began in a tentative way the
work of beautifying the school yards. We had
definite plan as to ways and means, but
decided to begin with four schools. We solicit
ed trees and shrubs from the nurserynen ana
in all met with generous response. our
park Superintendent gave his services in plan
ming and supervising the planting, and con-
tributed many plants from the park grounds
The Art Club of the Women's Union offered
prizes for the yard showing the greatest i'm
provement in the fall pictures to be taken be-
fore and after We had large contribution
of seeds from a leading firm and prizes were
offered for flower show to be given in August
Some seeds were planted in the school yards.
but most of them were taken by the children
to their homes.
OF the four schools selected one was located
in large factory district. absolutely barren in
the outlook and surroundings. Vines were
planted on the building the fence covered with
sumacs and shrubbery. In the front yard morn
ing glores and Towering shrubs made a very
attractive corner. The other corner. being ap-
propriated by the public as a short cut to the
next street, has been reclaimed by seeding the
ground and by protecting the grass with an
iron pipe fence that will be covered with vines.
Another school in the suburbs had been built
upon an old city dumping ground. Nothing
could be more discouraging than its conditions
The principal has the instincts OF the pioneer
and the qualities Of a general. Under her lead
ership the children tackled the soil with such
weapons as they could muster, begged manure
from the surrounding stables. and every child
was instructed to bring sods in season and out
of season whenever and wherever they could
get them legitimately. The entire yard was
covered in this way; trees and shrubs were do
mated and planted; the north side was a

beautiful bed of ferns brought from the WOODS
by the eager children. The whole character or
the place was changed. When a stranger VS.
tied the school one Sunday afternoon in sum-
mer, children appeared spontaneously every
adjoining fencepost became watch tower, and
the argus eyes of community were on the alert
to see that 10 depreciation was committed. rms
school took the first prize.

side and doubtless Mr.. Morgan decided the en-
tire Louisville and Nashville matter; hut the IN
formation on which he acted had to be submit
ted to him by some one, and his instructions
carried out In return. The way in which the
entire matter was settled has left no doubt as
to Mr. Morgans judgment in going where he
did for partner.

TIE ORDINANCE FIXED
City councIl Takes Action-SaIvatio
Army Speech-Makers and the like
Must Keep oJet-Army Leader
Cox Again Arrested.

Detroit, Mich, April 2.-For some
time officials and the courts of this
city have had under discussion the le-
gality of an ordinance, known as the
Koch Campus ordinance, prohibiting
any speech-making. gatherings of any
kind, parades, blowing of horns, beat
ing of drums or exposing of merchan-
disc within certain limits Of the bust.
ness portion of the city-including
principally the campus directly in
front of the city hall and certain por-
tons of adjoining streets.
This in the main has hit the Saliva
ton Army pretty hard, and, under the
leadership of Major Blanche Cox, they
have continued to violate the ordi-
nance, maintaining its illegality.
The strenuous major has within the
past six weeks been arrested a mum.
Der of times, and is now in the hands
Of the law on the same charges, hav-
ing addressed a public meeting on
Cadillac square on Easter Sunday.
But by action of the city council,
at a meeting Tuesday night the mat
ter has probably been settled once for
all. The ordinance as adopted by the
council last night absolutely forbids
speech-making on the campus, on
Woodward avenue from Grand Circus
park to Jefferson avenue, on Monroe
avenue as far east as Farmer street,
on Cadillac square as far east as Bates
street, and on Fort street and Mich-
gan avenue as far west as Griswold
street. For meetings outside of these
limits and within the half-mile circle
the mayor can issue permits on the
recommendation of the superintendent
Of police. The ordinance prohibits. in
addition to speech-making, the blow.
ing of horns, beating of drums and eX-
posing of merchandise for sale, but
by an amendment introduced by Aid.
Beamer and adopted, it is allowable
for a moving procession to pass
through the forbidden district.
Sentiment has always been much di-
vided among the citizens of Detroit
regarding this ordinance.

with female weakness for about four years

Mr.. J. w. McGregor, of 62d Street and
Princeton Ave, Chicago, Ills. oYou
advised her to take Dr. Pierce's Favorite
Prescription which she did faithfully for
nine months, and now we must acknowl-
edge to you that she is a ueY GOoHan.
We cannot thank you enough"
YOU CAN BE CURED
by oFavorite Prescription if your dis
ease is durable by medicine; and the
facts show that only two women in every
hundred who have given vFavorite Pre-
scription fair and faithful trial have
failed of complete cure. Women who
have suffered for years and have had the
advantages of the most skillful medical
treatment, have at last tried oFavorite
Prescription " and been cured Women
who had been pronounced incurable, and
given up to lifelong suffering, have been
perfectly and permantly cured by the
use OF DIR. Pierce's Favorite Prescription.
Sick and ailing women are invited to
consult DIR. Pierce, by letter, free. All
correspondence is held in sacred secrecy
and the written condolences of women
are guarded by the same strict profess
sional privacy observed by DIR. Pierce in

Accept no substitute for cFavorite
Prescription" though the dealer says that
it is "just as good" If he told the whole
truth he'd say the substitute was better
not better for You but better for him,
because of the little more profit paid by
the sale OF less meritorious medicines.

her, she didn't realize her own weari-
ness. But once at home, exhaustion over
came her. If woman were thoroughly
robust, without ache or pain, she could
not keep this work up without under
mining her health. What shall be said
then of those women, who are not strong,
who suffer from headache, backache,
bearing-down pains, and other conse-
quences of a diseased condition of the
womanly organism? And these women
are in the great majority. There are
few women who are free from diseases
peculiar to their sex.
BURNING THE CANDLE AT BOTH ENDS.
That expressive saying not only sug-
gests the most rapid form of waste but
also the most foolish. When a woman
overtaxes her strength in any cause,
whether in the enjoyment of social
pleasures, or in the service of church or
charity, she is rapidly Fastening to the
end of her public activity.
The proof of this is found right at
home. Young matrons who are not
dancing any more, church workers who
are no more active these have not step
ped aside because of loss of interest but
because of lack of strength.
There is not weak woman who would
not like to be made strong again. There
is not sick woman who would not like
to be made we'll. And there is not the
least reason, in ninety eight cases out of
every hundred, why women should con-

GENERAL CROP REPORT.
U. S. Weather Bureau Issues a Sum.
mary for March.

Washington, April 1.-THE weather
bureau has issued the following gen.
eral summary Of the crop conditions
for March:
The weather conditions of March
were generally favorable for farming
operations in the states of the Mis-.
souri,, upper Mississippi and Ohio val
legs, and on the Atlantic coast north
of North Carolina. The month was
also favorable in Florida, Texas and
Oklahoma, but over the greater part
of the central and east gulf states it
was unfavorable, largely on account
Of excessive rains. Throughout the
central and east gulf states farm work
is from two to three weeks late, and in
many sections land has been badly
washed. On the Pacific coast the
month was cool and the season is gen.
orally backward.
Some spring wheat was sown over
the southern portion of the spring
wheat region at the close of the
month.
Dat seeding is well advanced in the
states OF the Missouri valley and is
progressing in the Ohio valley and
middle Atlantic states Fall sown oats
in the southern states have been win
ter killed to a great extent.
The general outlook for fruit. ex.
cepting peaches, is encouraging.
