Beautify the Farm Home.

Every farm home should have
lawn regardless Of the size of the
farm and of the dwelling. There g
no more enjoyable place to live than
in a comfortable farm home, which
is snugly surrounded by a beautiful
lawn and shade trees. A pretty lawn
and shade trees are necessary luxu-
ries within the reach of every farm
er. The cost for trees, plants and
grass seed is comparatively nothing,
while the benefits and pleasure to be
derived are considerable. If farm
homes and farm life were more at
tractive and pleasant, there would be
less trouble encountered about keep
ing the children on the farm More
over, pleasant surroundings have an
uplifting effect upon character, es-
pecially those of immature persons.
A farm house may appear small and
uninviting in a treeless yard, but If
1t were to be surrounded by q lawn,
few ornamental or fruit trees, there
would be a decided change for the
better and the same place would be
IL
And 1t only takes few trees and
some grass to make the change.
Those who already have lawns and,
perchance some shade trees, should
endeavor to make the lawn still more
beautiful. Provide better trees and
more of them If there is plenty of
room. Replace those old cottonwood
and soft manila traac ,.,itb hattar o.,d
more beautiful ones. There is moth
ing better for both landscape effect
and windbreak purposes than hardy
varieties of evergreen spruce, pine
and FIR Many farm has a tidy and
comfortable appearance because such
trees are set wide apart in the lawn
and associated with arbor vitae
hedges that are properly trimmed
and cared for. Fine towering and
foliage shrubs are cheap and plenti-
full these days and should have
place around every farm home. But
1t is by no means necessary or de-
sirable to crowd the lawn with trees
and shubbery; indeed one of the first
principles OF correct landscape gar
dening is to reserve a wide expanse
of lawn, placing the shrubbery main
ly In masses in corners.
After trees have been set out in
the lawn, the matter should not stop
there. The highways would look
much better If the owners of the
farms would set out some good trees
along the roadside. OF course they
should not be set so close together
that they would shade and sap the
fields too much for the good of the
crops. But row of hard maple, elm
or black walnut trees, set at regular
Intervals, is a valuable addition to
every farm. And besides improve

utilized sometimes for wire string

market price compared with other
crops and the labor required for their
cultivation. IL is a great mistake to
look only to the immediate cash re-
turns regardless of the condition OF
the land after the crop mas been har-
vested, for there is great difference
in the comparative values of crops
that exhaust the fertility OF the soil
and those which do not exhaust. but.
on the contrary, add fertilizing ele-
ments thereto. All leguminous PLANTS
do this and therefore they should be
planted in rotation for the benefit of
crops that are to follow them.
The sofa bean, which is not well
known in this country being from
Japan, contains more protein and fat
than the cow pea. One of the adyan-
tages with both crops is that the
vines are highly relished by cattle
and where crops are grown and hogs
turned in to do the harvesting, the
results have been very satisfactory
and the land improved. Those who
have grown the sofa bean commend it
highly. 1t has but few beans in a
pod, while the COW pea (Which is
really a BEAM has half a dozen, but
the sofa bean has many more pods
than the COW pea. The sofa bean
grows from two to four feet high
and ripens about the first of October,
but il the vines are preferred for hay
they may be cut down about the lat
ter part of August. AS much as forty
bushels of seed per acre have been
grown on good land, under favorable
conditions. There are several varie-
ties, the dwarf kinds being mostly
preferred. The sofa bean is quite
hardy and can stand a slight touch
of frost, but the COW pea thrives only
under climatic conditions favorable
for garden beans.
1t is better to procure seed of the
sofa bean grown in the North, il
possible, as the seed from very far

that clover has a big value as fer

science, like holy Adam. 1t would be
as II my watch were always to agree
