THE FANS.

They talk about the pitcher being wild
They roast the umpire every single
gamo.
They call the shortstop Butternngers,
And go TO every contest Just the same.
They say the batsman couldn't hit bal
looms.
They call the man that's running bases
lame,
They think the catcher's judgment some
thing fierce
And go TO every contest just the same.
They say the man at first Is but a muff,
The way they boot IL folders is a
shame
They cannot knock mlsplay half
enough
But go to every contest Just the same,
They shout, they STAMP. thoy howl with
glee
They beat the air In ecstasy!
They give each player glad acclaim!
The good Old home team won the game.

TO RID THE LAWNS OF WEEDS.


Several homc-owncrs have asked how
lawns can be kept free from weeds. The
only entirely satisfactory way is by pull
ing up or cutting OF the weeds as they APP
pear. There are liquid applications adj
vertjsed for destroying weeds but t
stands to reason that anything powerful
enough to affect a weed must he equally
harmful 70 the grass. The only way in
which such an application could be used
safely and effectively is by applying Il
to each weed, and this involves about as
much labor a S digging or pulling II up.
Pull a weed, or cut off It's top below the
crown, and that's the end of 1t; therefore
| advise this method as the most salts
factory one for Riding a lawn of these
pests.
But Of course such method cannot be
applied to large lawn, or one would be
spending nearly all his time lighting
weeds. Much can be done to lessen the
chances of injury from these intruders
by so feeding the swnrd that 1t will &c,
and keep the start of them. Encourage
1t TO stool out so thickly that ordinary
weeds will not be able TO establish them
selves among Il, or viii be chokcd to
death by It's luxuriant development, AS
was said In the article of last month
Where lawn making was treated, great
care ought to he taken to procure only
perfectly clean seed. But, with all pos
slbe precautions against them. weeds will
como In. and such aggressive and per
slstent ones as thistes, dandelons and

cutting, or so feeding the grass that its

The comparisons of great wealth and the

the honor involved will exist in the new

Americans, too, as in the matter OF social
affairs the rich who have good taste will
not make an undue display Of their money
where their official equals might be placed
at a disadvantage. Still the absence OF
money need not necessarily place the right
people in an embarrassing position, FOR
