This stampede has now reached such

right place.
Do not put one of the large growing
types where there is barely room for a
small one; do not put a tall-growing
sort where a low-growing would look
better, and do not put a climber
against wall where the sun will beat
on 1t for hours at time.
Roses are more easily cared for
when grown in rows or beds than as
single specimens scattered here and
there over the place, and make a much
dner showing when In bloom Roses

time and do not make an attractive
showing except during the blooming
season. For this reason a side loca.

Spade the soil very deeply and mix
well rotted manure with it, using about
one-third manure. If the soil is very
heavy and sticky, mix liberal amount
OF sand with it, and if the available
spot for the bed happens to be where
water stands during the winter dig the
soil out to depth of two feet or more
and put down a siX-inch layer of
stones, broken crockery or bones to
serve as drainage material.
Mulch the rose buds early with old
manure, chip-dirt or lawn clippings.
Cut out dead branches and dead OF
diseased tips to where the wood is
healthy. Ever-blooming sorts bloom
on the new wood, while almost every
other variety produces its blossoms on
the short lateral shoots that start out
from the side of the old branches.

IN MEMORY OF ROBT. G. MAN
MING.

On Sunday afternoon. August -,
1906, at 3 80 o'clock, death entered the
quiet and peaceful home OF MIR. Mack
Manning and robbed him OF an only
son, Robert Gilbert.
Mamie, as he was affectionately
called, was a most dutitul and aztec
tiouate son, a kind and loving brother,
and friend to all, and 1t was hard In
deed to see him cut down In the full
bloom and strength OF young man
hood.
Mamie was living at the time OF his
death with Mr.. L. ]. Baker, OF Palny-
"a, where he managed large farm,
He was taken sick some four weeks
ago with typhoid fever and was brought
to bis fathers about one mile from
town where all was done for him that
q kind mother and a loving sister
could do.
He was born on January 18th, 1870
and was therefore thirty-one years
seven months and seven days old but
God In His wise providence knew best
so He called him home, where we hope
to meet by and by.
He leaves a father and mother, two
loving sisters, Mrs. Susie Thomas ane
Miss Eva Manning, and host OF rela
tiyes and friends to mourn their loss.
Lord, thou has conquered death W.
know,
Bes:ow to life again, said,
This one who died while ago,
He smiled, HE is not dead ~
Dear Lord, how shall we know that the
Still walk unseen with us and Thee
Nor sleep nor wander tar away?
He smiled, "Abide in Me !"
A FRIEND.

ss a neigbbor and friend to the
poor, he will be greatly missed
and there will be many in the years 70
come who will call his name blessed.
In word, the death ct Wilson Carey
Whitaker brings great loss to Ha!iiaz
county in every sphere III which he
lived and labored, and it makes va
cancy which none Can fill. His lies
influence is his monument, high and
shining; bis spirit WIS true and his
works we're great.
Sympathy tor the bereaved and
stricken loved ones !; pity tor the people
who have lost such friend and leader
in good works; and blessings on the
memory OF the good and noble Chris,
tian man that he was, whose tolls and
cares are over, and who, in the beautl-
full, blessed Beyond, has entered upon
that glorious inheritance OF rest that
shall fade not away forever.
