CLANS to be Protected,

The clam question is engaging the at
tention of coast towns quite seriously
and they are to take advantage of the
laws passed at Augusta regarding clam
protection. At Jonesboro the matter
came up for consideration and the vote
taken was that no person should dig
CLAIMS on any of the flats in the town
without securing the written consent
of the owner Of the abbutting land.
Owing to the fact that the great
quantity of CLAIMS that during the last
few years have been dug for the
factories have greatly lessened the
supply the people feel that the time has
come when some measures must be
adopted for the protection Of the clam,
or but a few years will be necessary to
exhaust the supply. At Rogue Bluffs
the matter was called up at the town
meeting, so that in the future those
who go to that place for the purpose of
digging clans must first secure a per-
init from the municipal officers

THE FLOWER GARDEN.
A Few Timely Suggestions for the Plant
ing Season.

A Few Timely Suggestions for the Plant
ing Season.
Early plants of Marigold flower in
pots before replanting and never stop
until frost.
Mornings glory is the best vine for
the trellis. Soak the seed in warm
water before planting. 1t self sows.
The first frost kills it.
Ordinary Petunia flowers profusely
all summer, thrives anywhere and self
soWs.
Annual Phlox is the best dwarf
plant for general purposes. 1t self
sows. 1t is good pot plant.
The Japanese and Chinese pinks are
snowy flowers, three inches across with
a curious mixture of colors. They will
stand cold weather but not wet.
The California Poppy is the most
brilliant red annual. Do not trans
plant.
Sunhowers are the tallest growing
ANNALS. The seeds are good for chick
en- feed.
Sow Sweet Peas early and cut the
flowers promptly if you want flowers
through the whole season.
Sweet William, the ''Cluster- flower
ed pink, is very fragrant. Remember
it likes moist rich soil.
Zinnia is. gorgeous and always in
flower. It is well to get selected
strains for pure colOrs.-The Garden

Outdoor Advertisements.

Whoever glanced through the public laws
enacted by the Legislature this winter
probably noticed that in Chapter 80 fine
of from IS to $25 and costs was imposed
upon anybody who should advertise his
business on rocks or fences by the roadside
without the written consent of the city or
town whose thoroughfare it was, or upon
privately owned land without the written
consent of the owner.
That law is the result of the work of the
Fortnightly Club of Bath and is designed
to check the DETACHMENT of the landscape by
glazing advertisements. The movement
originated with the energetic Bath organiza-
ton, which proposed it to the Women's Fed
Grafton which in turn took up the work
with such excellent effect that the men,
bers of the legislative committee in charge
of the bill declared that they never were so
nearly buried under an avalanche of petit
tiOns.
Now it behooves the owners of signs in
the country landscape to make sure that
they have right to keep them there.-Port-
land Express.

While no woman is entirely free from
periodical suffering, it does not seem to
be the plan of nature that women

set right or it will lead to serious de-
rangement of the whole female organ
