SEVERE ROOT PRUNING.
Especially Applicable Where
Climate II Dry.

The advocates OF severe root pruning
for trees being transplanted seem to
be increasing In number According
to Luther Burbank this system is espe-
cially advantageous for planting In dry
climates In a recent issue OF the
Rural New Yorker he says: Every
experienced nurseryman trims all the
small side roots of his nursery stock
before planting. This is universal
custom. and in my experiments | have
found that seedlings and very young
trees should always be treated in this
way under all circumstances. young
seeding tree which has had its roots
cut OF TO within few inches OF the
collar. and the top almost wholly re-
moved, will in all cases make q far
better growth than the one planted
with all its roots, even II the top should
be removed or course 1t is necessary
to remove the top In proportion TO the
amount OF roots removed, and. strange
AZ 1t may seem, 1t Is especially neces-
sary to prune the roots short when
tney are W ne pidhteu vi idHu lHd' hdo
little moisture near the surface. For
the trees having many side roots DIVIDE
their forces in starting In all directions,
instead of making a good, substantial
main tap root. which the closely pruned
seeding will always proceed to do.
Though OF universal application, these
facts are especially applicable to dry
climates like California and Texas.

The Day When Everything is Wrong.

Next to the sense of humor. which is the
sureSt and most certainly aVaila BILE means
of escape, mere physical absence has its
advantages. Just to leave your work and
your Worries-you dishes in the sink
your beds unmade your marketing UNI
done. and, if need be your doors UNI
locked-and go forth into the great out
side world, is to run with eager feet to-
wards peace. 1t is good TO go ana see a
friend and talk your trouble over; but it
is better to go cut under the Sky and for
get it. Let the unhurred world of nature
preach to you of steadfast peace and
growth under unceaSing change. Let the
big empty sky replace the cobwebbed cell
ing of your house bound consciousness,
and Hood the darkened places with whole
some sunshine. When YOU go back to
your dishes they will almost wash them
selves, for all the good fairies of out-of-
doors will come home with you and lend
a willing hand to your work
TO be able to do this requires. of course,
some Just perception of the relative i'm
portance of yourself and your bothers-
the sense of perspective, in short. But
perspective, while it reduces near mole
hills to their proper size. also let's us
know the true nature of the mountains
lurking behind The little worries are
really little, but their work in the soul
is not little. Nothing so searches out our
hidden weaknesses as the days when
everything is wrong They are the souls

orv negligence is hailed into view, and the

ALAsKA's WILD FLOWERS.
They Are Described by Woman VINO
Knows Them.

Mrs. Volney II. IIoggatt. native Of
Kentucky is now an enthusiastic Alaskan
and, talking of the country and the 1870
varieties of beautiful wild flowers said
to a representative of the Star:
People who have never visited the ter
ritory of Alaska and are not familiar
with the resources and conditions gener-
ally naturally are a little increduIouS
when we speak of the soil. the botanical
experiments and conditions that exist and
have existed perhaps centuries before this
great empire came under our government
Prom time immemorial since the first
sowing of the seed in this Northland by
the hand of the All-divne Planter. the
wild flower has borne life from the soil
and lifted its graceful head and beautiful
face upturned to the sun and blue sky
with as much vigor and substance as any
dollhouse flower or outdoor plant of Cali
fornia. AS many as 100 varieties of wild
flowers have been found in the district of
Nome. between the 66th and 9Th degrees
north latitude along the coast of Boring
sea. / have spent hours and days among
the hills and lowlands gathering the little
waXen petal flowers-of every tint and
color-so beautiful and dainty In texture
and color that it seemed as YOU studied
them that the sweet breath of heaven had
but merely touched them and left the
bushes of love messages upon their pet
ais.
Il found myself acquiring somewhat of
a persistent fad in searching for these
feather-tinted flowers. that l might find
one to outrival the other IN color. | have

To Darn a Garment.

There are several ways of darning a
rent in garment, as there are several
different kinds of rents. The rent
known as the barn door, a three
cornered cut or tear, is perhaps the
most difficult. Lay under it piece of
the same material, taking a square an
inch larger each way than the tear,
and haste this down on the wrong side
smoothly and firmly; take thread of,
as nearly as possible, the same color
and fineness as the wool of the cloth
and work back and forth across the
rent with the smallest of running
stitches Never try to darn, even in
heavy cloth, with coarse needle, but
always use as fine a one as will carry
the thread you have selected to use.
When all darned, turn on the wrong
side, trim off the superfluous patch,
leaving only a fourth of an inch each
side of the rent and press neatly with
warm iron on the right side, laying
a piece of damp muslin between the
goods and the iron. To mend table
linen, cut away the frayed part so as
to form a circle; haste under a piece,
matching pattern and laying the
threads in the piece so as to run the
same way as those in the article to be
mended, and darn both sides delicately,
SO that the work when finished looks
somewhat like applique work. To
mend flannel, haste on the patch, re-
Numbering the biblical injunction
against putting new cloth into an old
garment, feather stitch it neatly down
on the wrong side, and with a smaller
stitch of the same kind work around
the frayed part of the hole on the right
side, first trimming it neatly with a
sharp scissors.
