WILL HASTEN ACTION
ON THE INCOME TAX
Senate Adopts a Resolution
Requesting Legislatures
To Pass on amendment.

The Senate today took a step which
Senator Brown. of Nebraska believes
viii be of cons lderabIe Importance in
Fastening action by the State Legis-
latures on the proposed income tax
amendment tn the Constitution.
A resolution by Senator Brown WAS
adopted requesting the President to
transmit TO the governors Of tbs diff
ferent States copies Of the proposed
amendment, to the epd that the States
may act upon Il, and requesting the
governors to adEise the Secretary Of
State as TO what action is taken
There was a -ort debate. Brown
pointed out that there was nothing un-
usual In his resolution and that similar
action had been taken several times be-
fore when amendment to the Constitu-
tiOn were proposed Senator Sutherland
OF Utah objected. He said the fact
Congress had done unnecessary things
in the past did not justify It to his
mind, Senator Beveridge defended the
resolution. Senator Depew suggested
an amendment, which he later with
drew. 1t provided that If the Secretary
of state had already notified the gov
ernOrs IL should not be necessary for
the President to take action.

BUSINESS DISTRICT
WILL Be ENLARGED
Commissioners Want Resi-
dence ThoroughfareS
Changed.

Recognizing that provision must be
made for the encroachments OF business
enterprises In the neighborhood OF the
new Union Station and the substation
al Seventh and 3 streets southwest, the
Commissioners today called upon the
Corporation Counsel for an opinion as
to whether the following thoroughfaYes
can be treated as business streets in the
construction of the regulations relating
to the erection of buildings:
Massachusetts avenue, from New Jer-
sey avenue to Second street northeast;
California street, from the plaza to
Second street northeast; E street, from
New Jersey avenue northwest to Second
street northeast; r street. from New
Jersey avenue northwest TO the plaza;

street; First street northeast from the
plaza TO G street; Eleventh street south
west, from + street to Water street: +
street southwest. from Eleventh street
to Twelfth street; F street southwest,
from Eleventh street to Twelfth street.
Although the law declares that a
thOrOughfaTe cannot be treated as a
business street unless 90 per cent OF the
property is improved for business puT-
poses il is the belief OF the Commits
sioners that It would be we'll TO modify
the regulations in the present instance.

CHURCH PROTESTS
To COMMISSIONERS
ST. Martins Congregation
Is Opposed to Plow Pit
Being Removed.

Protest against the removal of the
pillow pit at North Capitol and T streets
to q point opposite the St. Martin
Church property, was presented to the
Commissioners today in the form Of a
resolution adopted at meeting of the
pensioners in st. Martins Hall last
night.
The resolution sets forth that it is
the unanimous opinion of the members
of St. Martins congregation that the
placing Of the pit at any point in front
of the church property would render
the property useless for church pur-
poses and would. in fact, amount to
confscation Of said property
Steps were taken recently by Commits
sioner West to transfer the pillow pit
to a point farther north on North
Capitol street The Commissioners will
give hearing on the subject the latter
part Of the week, invitations to attend
which win be extended the Pensioners
of st. Martins, the residents of the
neighborhood and the officials of the
City and Suburban Railway Company.

inch thick, make mark three-quarters
of an inch from the bottom. Place
this beside wide board of same thick
ness on your workbench, and after
setting your compass at seven inches
draw a quarter circle from one of the
3-quarter-inch marks to the other;
this will describe just one-fourth of a
circle IA inches in diameter. The
board is cut along the circular mark
just drawn.
Now on the bottom edge make a
mark at each end of this board just
three-quarters of an inch from the end
along the bottom edge; draw a line
from this mark 40 the end of the cir
cular cut just made and saw off this
little three-correred piece, which
liters the board at an angle of 50 de.
grees, and so allows the four segments
of circle to fit together to form the
completed circle Use the board you
have just cut as pattern and cut Is
more exactly like it.
Now take oneinch strips which are
seven, eight or ten feet long. whatever
length you desire to culvert and nail
to these circular pieces as shown II
Fig l. Place one of each of the quar-
ter segments of circle at each end and
two at equal distance apart in center
and when you have nailed the strips
as illustrated one-fourth of it is fin
ished Two of these sections are
joined together with strap hinges, as
shown in Fig. 1, hinge being placed
in each of the four corners where the
sections are joined together, and which
allows them to fold down together.
Now for the folding brace to hold
the sections upright while making
culvert, use eight pieces of board one
inch square and five inches long; al
one end of each one cut a long
slanting inter, as illustrated in Fig
/, to allow them to fold nearly to
gether Join two of each together

Here is another recipe. Take as
many apples by measure as barber
res, remove bad places. then quarter.
Do not pare or core. Add berries with
water enough to cover, boil until the
apples are soft, then strain. To cup
of juice use cup of sugar, put juice
on to boil about 20 minutes. In the
meantime put sugar in the oven to
heat Stir often so as to not burn. Put
all together and boil until it comes to
"a jelly. Sometimes II takes only five
minutes. Make it on a clear day.

in Fig. 1; the two hinges at ends of
completed braces are fastened to sec
lions, as illustrated, and hold them up
right or allow them to fold down as re
Quired.
The core is now complete and will
mold an opening in culvert s inches

er opening is desired you can simply
change measurements in cutting the
material to make the size desired

with edges together, and the concrete
mixture filled Ira around them and on
top to the depth of three, four or six
inches, according to the pressure that
is to be placed on the culvert. For
ordinary usage four-inch depth on
top Is sufficient
When finished the concrete is al
lowed to set or harden for several
days, when the side boards are re
moved and the braces on center forms
or core pushed back, folding the
forms together, so that they can be
easily removed, as Illustrated in Fig. 2

the conservatory, the smaller being
fancy stand or similar receptacle.
This is somewhat drastic treatment,
but if the plants are carefully staked
with light stick or bamboo cane and
tied up with raffia for week or two
they will speedily recover if kept from
bright sunlight, the tying up of the
leaves being necessary to prevent
their weight levering the roots out of
position. The final proceeding is to
give the contents of the pots several
copious waterings, in order to wash
the soil we'll round the roots, but be
sure the water gets away.
Sometimes it will be found that old
plants make no progress. This is
usually due to the fact that fresh soil
entirely is required, the old having
become sour from overwhelming or
other causes. immense the whole Of
the pot and contents in a pail of water
for one hour, remove the pot, washing
away the old soil altogether. then re-
pot with new pot and soil. AS 10
watering, the aspidistra requires to be
freely watered in summer and spar
ingly in winter. 1t is preferred by
some, instead of giving several water
ings, to stand the plant in pail of
water for some little time. allowing
the pot to be wholly covered, thus af-
fording a lasting drink. and this meth
Cd is all very well when the watering
of a plant is understood. 1t is com
mon practice to place the pots in
fancy vases or jardinieres; this is
detrimental to any plant. as it hinders
the air getting to the pot, which is
porous If, however, this course is
adopted the outer vessel should be con
siderably larger than that containing
the plant itself, to allow a certain
amount of air to circulate between the
two also it should not be forgotten
that water must not accumulate at The
bottom of the vase, as this rapidly be
comes stagnant and sour. and is yer,
injurious to the plant.

FARM GlEANINGS.

Instead of raising weeds in the gar
den grow some late crops. After the
early vegetables are out of the way
raise something else that will mature
late in the fall.
Use the split-log drag on the earth
roads. 1t has proven to be successful
and if there is any one thing needed
in the country it is better roads.
Whether It's better to feed or to sell
is the question agitating the corn rails
ers.
Cement pits filled daily with fresl
water makes a good clean wallow fol-

weather is warm.
