THE FLOWER BED.

AS a general rule flower beds are too
large for the number of plants placed
in them, and the result is that they
present a mass of bare ground until
two or three weeks before frost A
small bed, close and perfect, is much
prettier than a large one which reveals
not only a large expanse of bare
ground, but the naked stems and de-
fective leaves at the base Of the plants.
Much can be done toward thickening
up a bed by judicious pinching back.
This is especially true of coleus and
geraniums. By pinching back, how
ever, is not meant the taking off Of
huge slips or ends of branches. Sim
ply pinch out the minute leaves and
centre Of each shoot and the plant
will at once throw out branches from
the lower axis, and these shoots can
again be pinched until the plant has
acquired the requisite breadth If
growth is not vigorous some fine ma
nure should be worked in, or the bed
watered with liquid manure. Ere
Quent stirring Of the soil is just as
beneficial for flowers as for vegetables.

LAWN TREATMENT.

A mistake is often made by setting
the lawn-mower to cut too short, and
there is not enough of leaf-growth left
to give strength to the roots Of the
grass. A more natural condition is
given by cutting a little higher, and
the lawn is made more like velvet
while there would be less danger of
the earth below being dried or burnt
by exposure to the sun. Owners and
gardeners are sometimes puzzled to
know what to DO under the shade Of
trees, where grass will not grow freely.
The best remedy is a free seeding with
Kentucky blue grass which will en-.
dure shade much better than some
other lawn grasses. Another mode Of
treatment is to cover the ground
around the trees, and beneath their
shade, with some hardy evergreen
running plant as the periwinkle or
ivy, OF it is well to keep the lawn and
shade trees in separate allotments.

PRUNING FRUIT TREES.

The best time to brune fruit trees
is just before the sap begins to flow
from February to April-accordlng
to the latitude. The wounds viii then
heal over rapidly, without leaving dead
wood or sears. The next best time is
from the middle to the last Of June,
when the sap flows afresh and the
trees commence a second growth, but
heavy pruning should never be prac-
ticed in June Much pruning may be
saved by pinching and rubbing off
superfuous spots during the growing
season.

10 the utter surprise Of all Clarks.
burgers who read ii, the following ap.

Word from Clarksburg says that

epidemic and that the board of health is
busy trying to check the disease"

man of the board of health pronounces
it absolutely false, and says there is not
a single case of scarlet fever in the city.
so far as he is able to learn. DR.. Nelson
Peek, the city health officer, also says to
his knowledge there is not single case
here.
1t is evident that grapevine news OF
this sort was sent out by some one who
is sore on the city and has an axe to
grind and that the Times has been i'm.
posed on, as it is not the Telegram's
opinion that a paper of the character OF

people OF a neighboring city, and, in jus.
tice to Clarksbrg, the Telegram trusts
that the Times will hasten to correct the
statement and he careful hereafter in
