Don't plant currants or any other
fruis along the fence. Set them out
in the open at least FIVE feet from

respond to care than the currant
Clean cultivation and a liberal use of

suckers below the surface of the

All Around the Garden In
the Gladstone Springtime

PGt the garden walk where a walk
is needed. Convenience should be
the first thing considered. 1t need
not be straight, but if it be curved,
let the curve not involve too much of
a detOur. 1t is always well to avoid
if possible having the walk bisect a
lawn, as that makes two lawns where
there was bu tone, and the larger
greensward can be made to look the
more park-like and natural is the land
scapc Avoid taking the walks cir
eultousiy aroun he borders unless
they are laid simply to permit of
ramble to inspect the grounds. All
walks which are designed for serious
use should be direct and convenient.
Some soils which contain much
loan and sand win pack with tramp
ing and will make good walks with
out further preparation. But usually
1t is necessary to lay some material
on the soil. Gravel. einders, and
the like may be better than the soil,
but in some cases they are worse,
since the surface is loose and unpleas-
ant to walk upon. In walks which
are on decided slopes and down which
the water is likely to run any loose
material is Objectionable, since it
slides to the low places.
All things considered the best
thing for a walk VIII. Oh Is intended
to be permanent is cement. A cement
walk will last indefinitely and while
there are difficulties ia laying it,
they are easily overcome. There
should be at least a foot or two of
loose material, as brickbats, cinders
or the like, below the cement cover.
If the place is low and likely to hold
water there should be even more
drainage. Pound the material down
or let it stand until it becomes well
settled. Then lay the cement in two
courses. The first course may be
three or four inches thick and made
Iof we'll mixed mortar composed of
three parts Portland cement, one part
water lime, and two to three times as
much sharp sand such as Portland.
When this has partly hardened, while
it is still moist before it is set,
put on finishing layer of one inch.

Of Colorado and the Pinkerton detec-
tive agency, all seeking to destroy the
Western Federation of Miners.
The mysterious registered letter
sent from Denver to San Francisco

five $40 bills sent to him by George

who said he formerly worked for Pet
tibone. Wolff said he sent Orchard

in much different light than when

Gay America Has No Base In Pacific
for Bla Fleet. a.. ~

Toxic. July 1.-The report from
Washington attributing the proposed
sending of sixteen battleships to the
Pacific coast to Admiral Dewey's pri-
yate plan is generally disbelieved
here by those whose knowledge and
experience entities their opinion to
some attention. The United States is
not known to possess naval bases in
the Pacific adequate for such purpose
and the impression prevails that the
sending Of SO large squadron whore
sufficient rendezvous does not exist
would simply mean that the vessels
would be an easy prey to torpedo
boats and destroyers. Should sixteen
battleships be SO employed as to dis
prove this impression a record break
ing naval feat will have to be accom-
Dlished.
