while the sun never did shine except
in daytime when you could get along
very well without it.
The reason I made such a fatal
mistake about the Irish potatoes was
that some one told me the best time
to plant for extra early potatoes, was
in December. I'm always expert
menting, and I planted potatoes
and tied up Christmas presents in
tissue paper and red ribbon simul-
taneously, and my intellect reeled
under the com bnation. I forgot all
about the moon, with the results al
ready noted. SO I am still in the
dark as to whether December is a good
time to plant early potatoes or not. /
don't much think it is. for we plant
ed peas, too. and never laid eyes on
them again. / wish some one who
has tried it would let me know what
happened.
.'Of course, beans are planted on
Good Friday whether or no. but that's
only the exception that proves the
rule.
DO set out some mint and try
fayorng your iced tea with it during
the long July and August days when
it's too hot to eat. You pat two or
three sprigs in the tea when it's hot
just enough to give it an odd taste
and then when you pour il out in

The men always look disappointed
when they first taste it, but that makes
no difference. This is a world of dis
appointments anyway, and one more
won't matter. To be sure, its the last
straw that breaks the Gamers back,
but then I've always thought that the
cameTs back was so hideously ugly
with it's bumps that maybe breaking
it would be an Improvement. SO try
the mint.
i've never had flowers in the gar
den, but another year / intend to
plant a row of hollyhOcks all around

them marigolds and bachelor buttons.

they are in bloom. and then they are

Mrs. J. Lindsay Patterson, of Win
Ston-Salem, has written a rhapsody,
sort of prOSe-pOem, over her beautiful
garden at Bramlette Place for the
Progressive Farmer, of Raleigh, n. {.
She writes as follows:
Il love my garden. 1t is a great
big, grandmother one, with room for
everything, and pretty much every
thing grows in it. / spend all my
mornings down there. and while it is
ruinous to clothes, if there is any oc-
cupation that is so fascinating as
watching things grow and eating them
after they are grown, so far I've failed
to find it.
First and foremost in my affection
is the strawberry patch; four rows for
me and one for the mocking birds, and
while they seem to think it's the other
way round, still I've gathered two
gallons daily for a month, and as this
is written am not without them yet.
People who question II life is worth
living surely are not the vainglorious
owners Of a strawberry patch. where
all varieties, from the very earliest,
through the medium and down to the
latest are planted and gloated over
and eaten and Dragged about.

on a vine-covered porch and we eat

a sore subject. / set out two cherry
trees for myself and a service tree for
the birds and the greedy things ate
the cherries themselves and left the

thanks to them for their gift.
I'VE shan't have any Irish potatoes
this year because they were planted
the wrong time of the moon. Now
I know that the scientific gentlemen
who run this paper don't believe in
the moon. but I do. and they are
wrong. SO please understand when
l speak of successful farming. it is
because it is strictly ac-
cOrding to the moon.

Must Keep the Roads Dry.

The most important thing in the
building of roads is to prevent or less
en- the ravages of water; yet no fea-
ture of the work is SO neglected as
this. Many local road supervisors
seem to give no consideration to the
question of the drainage, and the re-
suit is regular mud blockade during
several weeks months of the year.
There are few simple rules the
following of which would go far to-
ward bettering the roads of the coun-
try.
The road should be SO located and
constructed as to avoid steep grades,
down which the water ruSheS during
heavy rains, tearing up and Washing
away the road material.
The foundation of the road should
be thoroughly drained by open side
bitches, which Will carry off the wa
ter, and where necessary tile drains
should be laid in the foundation it
self Teh surface of the road should
be hard and smooth and have suffi-
cient slope toward the sides to shed
the surface water. Ruts and holes on
the surface Of the finished roads
should be filled as fast as made.

THE PUBLIC
Be DAMNED

Within the past twelve months over
fifteen thousand dollars has been ex.
pended in the building of handsome
residences and otherwise improving
residential property. all within one
block of the proposed location of the
Oklahoma Central depot at Tenth and
chickasha. This part of the city. west
hill, has always been considered
among the choicest Of residence loca-
tions. With the advent of rail
road and the necessarily accompanying
noise smoke, dirt, and danger, property
in that vicinity will naturally be re-
duced fifty per cent in value.
Beginning at the corner OF Tenth
and Chickasha avenue. going west on
the south side of the street, DR.. VIII
liams owns block Of handsome resi-
dence lots. with the exception Of fifty
feet. These lots are among the choic-
est in the city. They would be practic-
ally ruined for residence purposes.
Across Tenth street, east, J. O. Neal
owns handsome lot. upon which he
contemplated erecting a modern home

Some OF the handsomest residences
In Chickasha are located on the hill
from Tenth street to the city limits.
This property will all be damaged irs

this point
The Express Is not now. and never
was opposed to any railroad PROPOSE
tion. but Nhen a railroad by virtue OF
its right Of way contemplates not only
running valuable school property and
entering choice residence district,
the time has come to enter an emphat-
~ HtVtNot.
There is no necessity for any rail-
road ever coming as far south as
Choctaw avenue. and public sentiment
Is such that If Il can be Iegalif stopped,
It will be done.
Is Chickasha to experience prac-
tical application Of that time-honored
railroad maxim: The Public be
Damned?" The Oklahoma Central
can easily secure dozen locations
vastly cheaper and much more prac-
tlcal for the location Of depot. The
hook-worm curve their blue prints
show is not only impractical but would
cost an enormous sum Of money
money that the Santa Fe or Katy
will think twice before spending.
