water before potting plants, so as to

moisture from the soil and dry out the

ted plants with covers or set them in
side Of second pot to keep plants
from drying out. The roots near the
sides of the pot are easily dried in
sun or draft. Covers or double pots
shade them. Covers can be made Of
rice mating and various other ma
terial, or pot covers can be purchased
ready made. Plant rooted cuttings in
two and two and half inch pots and
repot into larger sizes as the pots I'LL

never be put into large pots, but ad-
vanced as they gain size and strength.

How to Hama TabIecIoths.

Tablecloths If hung properly are
much easier to iron than If they are
hung carelessly. The proper way to
hang tablecloths is to fold the hem
ends together and hang them on the
line with pins close together. When
the cloth is taken from the line 1t
should be folded carefully, so that it
will not have any Of those great long
creases that it Is sure to have If
thrown carelessly into the basket. If
these simple precautions are taken the
tablecloth will iron easier and will
look much better.

How to Give Ferns Steam Baths.

Ferns may be kept fresh by giving
them a steaming Of three hours. Once
every week or so they should be put
into the bathroom, shutting all win
dows and doors of the room to keep
in the steam. The bathtub should then
be filed with hot water. 1t will give
out q good steam. The room should
not be cooled suddenly after this Is
done. BY treating the ferns to this
bath 1t is not necessary to wash and
spray the leaves, which do not give
so satisfactory a result.

encd so by the authorities that peace
and order reigned after that. Making
an example of the worst offenders
thoroughly cowed the others.
A young man from town was pre-
pairing to dig hole right in front Of
country lawn to erect signboard
when the mistress Of the house OBJ
jected. The young fellow was dis
posed to be smart. but when he dis
covered that she would telephone for
the authorities he moved on In hurry.
Half the big. dishguring signs that be-
deck the forests and fields are there
simply because the ladies Of the COM
munity have never objected to them.
Until the women Of the country rise
up in arms Mt the array Of monstrosi-
ties decorating every field and many
of the farm buildings the men will
continue to give the privilege for
few dollars.
The fine open lawns that are getting
to be so common In many communities
have worked havoc with the rights" Of
the farmer who was determined to al
low his stock to roam at their own
sweet wills. One such individual NOV
ed into q progressive neighborhood. and
his pigs began destroying the flower
beds of neighbor who had no fence
about his lawn. The husband warned
his wife not to make trouble with a
neighbor, but the owner Of the flower
beds politely requested him to shut up
his pigs. He disregarded the request,
only to find his missing pigs In the
pound" a few days later, and he took
the hint.
The old fashion Of driving out from
town with load of garbage after night
and depositing 1t along some country
road has fallen into decay since num-
Der Of offenders were arrested and
fined. Whenever country man or
woman sees any one infringing on the
rights Of country people the plain duty
is to complain at once. Too long coun-
try people have tamely submitted to
injustice, and it is time some one was
waking up on the subject.
Driving campers off public highways,
cleaning up cemeteries and school
yards, seeing that streams are not
made foul and disease bearing as they
flow along, teaching the children the
value Of all public property, helping
the boys and girls to understand that
1t Is a crime to injure trees and all
other work that tends to uplift the
community are peculiarly women's
work. Civic improvement means i'm
provement everywhere and better
class Of future citizens. There are
laws enough on the statute books to
cover all cases if they are only en-
forced. and if they are not enforced
the first thing to do is to GUST the in
competent officials and elect men who
will do their duty. While women can
not vote, they are the power behind

INJURY TO ANKLES.
How to Treat . Sprain by Simple
Methods and Avoid Trouble.

How to Treat . Sprain by Simple
Methods and Avoid Trouble.
If possible, as soon as an ankle Is
sprained put 1t under water us hot as
can be endured, alternating with cold
water. The easiest way to manage this
Is in the tub under the hot and cold
water spigot.
This treatment often allays the SWELL
ing and stops further trouble. 1t is
we'll to summon the doctor at once in
case Of bad sprain. If he is long in
arriving, bandage with antiseptic band
ages or with adhesive plaster. For the
former wrap it around the ankle and
the middle Of the foot alternately in
the form Of an eight. Cut the adhesive
plaster in short strips and interlace
them from side to side of the sprain,
pulling tightly to hold the injured parts
in place.
Making a shoe Of medicated clay fire.
quently reduces the inflammation. This
should be renewed as fast as 1t dries
up.
Rest the foot In horizontal posi-
ton, or, better yet, have it higher than
the hips. When the ligaments are torn
and the ankle must be rested on a pill
low, much Of the strain will be relieved
by keeping the foot beyond the edge
Of the pillow, which is doubled up I'M
der the ankle.
When sprain Is bad, necessitating
inaction for long time, the circula-
ton should be kept up by massaging
frequently from the knees to the an
kle, more particularly the calf of the
leg. The massage movements should
be upward. If this is kept up many
times day from the time of the acct
dent, there will be no pain in walking,
even after weeks Of disused muscles.
There Is apt to be weakness for
months after hard sprain. To avoid
further trouble one should wear a sup
port of some kind. This may be a
woven stocking made of rubber or silk
or leather anklet that laces up the
front and slips over the heel.
