the plants are eight inches high. a light cane or stake should be inserted by each one, and the plant tied to 1t with raffia or soft twine. This tying should be repeated whenever the plants begin to drop over. If only e single large flower Is wanted, all side shoots should be removed as fast as they ap- pear, so that all the growth of the plant will be concentrated in the sim gle stem. If smaller flowers are de- sired, two or three blooming shoots may be allowed to grow.
 No definite rule can be given as to feeding. So much depends on what was incorporated in the soil. The ex- perienced grower can tell by observa- ton. when and how much to give. To the inexperienced grower we say 'Go slowly and watch the results" There is danger in overlooking as some va- refuse to bloom.
 Liquid manure can be made by put ting one shoveifuI of fresh manure in a half barrel of water. After the plants are we'll established, water with this once a week. and after buds begin to show. twice or three times week. When the flowers begin to show color withhold all stimulants, as there is q danger of burning the petals.
 Plants in boxes may be fed this way, or an inch of manure may be put on each and It will gradually wash in. For outdoor plants heavy coat or manure is best.
 Disbudding--As they are early or late varieties. buds will show from Au- gust Is to October 10. When the buds appear take off all but one to each plant or stem. The object in removing the weak and small buds Is to concen- trate the whole energy of the plant in one bloom and thereby increase its size. The thumb and forefnger are the best tools to remove the buds, and morning and evening when the flowers are brittle are the best times.
 Enemies--Green and black Aphis are the most destructive insects on chry- santhemums. Tobacco dust scattered over the plants when they are wet with dew or recently sprinkied, is the most effective remedy.

Does Not Regard Southern Pacific Liti-
 gatfOn Seriously.
 New York, March 30-@E. H. Harri- man, in speaking of the Southern Pa cific dividend suit filed in Chicago. Is quoted as saying;
 T do not regard it as of any signi- ficance whatever"
 Alex. Miller, Secretary of the Union and Southern Pacific lines, said:
 While we have not received the pa- pers in this case, we understood hold CTS fthe second mortgage bonds of the Galveston. Harrisburg & San Anto- nio Railway Company of Texas, which is controlled by the Southern Pacific Company, intended to begin proceed
 Holders of the greater amount of these bonds are members or heirs of the group that used to control the Pacific Improvement Company, which built many of the Southern Pacific line. For years, when they were in control of the San Antonio line they paid no interest on the bonds. Now that the Southern Pacific is in pos session of the property. they desire to have the interest paid on these sums, which are in the nature of income bonds.
 "our counsel advised us we need moi feel any apprehension over the out come of the case. The Southern Pa i. cific has made large advancements to the Galveston. Harrisburg X San An- tonic road for Improvements, better nents and extensions. and until these advances are repaid, the company will be in no position to make interest pay ments of the second mortgage bonds"
 Tn view of the fact that the semi-an- nual dividend payment of 3 1-2 per cent is due on Monday on the common stock of the Southern Pacific. Mir. Mill Ter was asked whether there was any Likelihood, of the payment being held
 .No," he replied, 'this proceeding will not affect tpe April dividend as the courts have decided the hearing on the matter will not be held until May"
 The bonds in question are owned by several of the wealthfest estates in the country. General Thomas H. Hub bard and the Croclxer Estate Company, bonds. The Southern Pacific owns $1,- 000,0 900. The rest of the $6,364,000 is owned by the Huntington estate H. E. Huntington and Stanford University!
 General Hubbard said he regretted the suit had been announced just at this time.
 T expected the papers would have been filed at least three weeks ago."
 Tt is unfortunate that the suit was begun at his time. I hope no impression will go abroad that this proceeding Is aimed at MT. Hartman. I have been in negotiation with the Southern Pa- cifc management for the past two years in an endeavor to persuade them to pay interest on our bonds. Our position may be summed up in these few words We believe the present management of the Southern Pacific, while apparently willing to pay dividenrs on It's stock issues, refuses to pay it's just debts in Withholding interest on its bonds.

cleanse your blood from all those impure, accumulated in it during the winter.
 Do this by taking Hoods Sarsaparilla, and begin now.
 You will feel better, look better, eat and sleep better, do your work more easily and satisfactorily, and be in good condition to resist prevalent diseases and to withstand the hot waves of summer which have such depressing and prostrating effect on the weak, debilitated and rundown.
 The secret of the unequaled success of Hoods Sarsaparilla as remedy for Spring Humors is the fact, proven an- nually by thousands of grateful people, that it thoroughly cleanses the blood, gives strength and tone to every organ and builds up the whole system.
 26 Years Experience Never Falls

Boxes aT bncI~ets that hold about half dozen nianfa each are the most convenient. Chrysanthemums want all the light thev can get, and blooms with the hn- est texture are grown under glass without shade. Plants in boxes can be placed where they get the full beneht of the sun, and. if glass is not avail able. a covering of cheesecloth or other thin material can be used to Keep on the hottest rays of the sun, at the same time admitting plenty light and air. This shading should be given only af- ter the blooms begin to show color. and is necessary to prevent bleaching of the blooms. One great advantage of box culture Is the convenience in protecting them or in moving them in case of early frost.

All blood troubles are not acquired. Through the blood disease germs are trans mitted from one generation to another. Par ents hand down tainted circulation to their children, and we see its effects manifested in various ways. The skin has waxy, pallid appearance, the eyes are often weak, glands of the neck enlarged, and, as the taint has been in the blood since birth, the entire health is usually affected, and the system weakened from want of nourishing, health-giving blood.

But these are exceptions. As rule they give us only fragrance and beauty and brightness. and they give without money and without price. And what do we give them in return2 Persecu- ton, destruction. extinction. There Is hardly a wild flower conspicuous enough in any way to attract the no. tice of the spoiier, to be found any- where near the city. It Is deplorable to contemplate the reckless waste and destruction that has barred our subur- ban parks of their chief attraction; and that. too. by people who are only thoughtless. and have no intention of doing any damage. Your mothers, am afraid. won't thank me for saying so. but you had better go into the gar den at home and tear every blossom from the handsomest rose bush there. than break and destroy the wild How CTS as recklessly as some of us do.
 The greater part of our garden plants are not propagated by the slow process of seeding. and the roses, es- peciaily, will do all the better If no flower is allowed to remain after 1t is full blown, as in this way the stock will be relieved of the support of It's useless members, and can devote It's entire energies to the production of new buds. And even at the worst, if a fine specimen should happen to be destroyed, another will be planted in it's place; but when these fair dwellers in the woods and fields are ruined, there is no hand to replace them.
 Tt is a mistake to imagine that we show our love for the flowers by re- lentlessly decapitating every one we see. Would you think of showing your love for a little baby brother or sister by cutting off It's head? Yet this is precisely what too many of us who call ourselves flower lovers. do to every pretty blossom we see. We snip or its head, and the pretty thing is gone for ever. The true lover of flowers would rather see them in their native haunts than anywhere else. He never breaks off a whole bough when a little sprig would serve his purpose, and always leaves more than he takes l feel like a vandaI myself when think of the destruction I have wrought in gath erfng the great quantity of specimens collected for showing you, but my ex, cuse must be that am not an habitual sinner in this respect and if these whose sweet lives could speak, am sure they would forgive the sacrifice for the motive that prompted 1t.
 'sBy making you better acquainted with them, have hoped to enlist your sympathies and awaken your interest in the preservation Public sentiment has already been educated up to the point of recognizing the rights of our song birds; let us real flower lovers now unite and see if we cannot edu- cate it into recognizing the rights of posterity in the rich inherit ance of flowers and shrubs bestowed upon our land by bountiful nature.

Deafness Cannot be Cured

the diseased portion of the ear. There is only
one way to cure deafness, and that is by con-
stitutional remedies. Deafness is caused by

lntiamed you have rumbling sound or i'm

Deafness is the result, and unless the infiam-
nation can be taken out and this tube re-
stored to its formal condition. hearing will
be destroyed forever; nine cases out OF ten
are caused by Catarrh, which is nothing but
