HOUSEHOLD TOPICS
Preventing Drought.

Preventing Drought
The best preventive Of suffering from
drought lies not in a delicate spraying
with the water pot but in the spade-in
deeply dug garden beds which enable the
plant roots to extend comfortably down
where they can obtain moisture. lind food.
and maintain a supreme indifference to
surface conditions.
Another excellent preventative which
has nothing to do with the watering pot
is ground mulch. This is the practice
of keeping the soil loose and light on
the surface, preventing the too rapid
evaporation of moisture.
Planting Lilies.
Most lilies should be planted IN October.
but there are a few which are positive
in their preference for late July and carly
August. For lilies, the bed should be dug
deeply. two feet at least. Unless the sub
soil is Of gravel put in layer of broken
stone for drainage.
The soil is an important factor. II
should be composed chiefly of leaf mold.
Don't use manure-lilies hate It as rhod-
endrons hate limestone. The two plants
like much the same kind OF soil.
To avoid and chance Of intimate con-
tact with soil they dislike the lily bulbs
are often placed on little cushions OF
sand. Set tho bulbs twevle inches deep,
tipped OF one side. Lilies should be pro-

II is only women with an abund

children's frocks.
Every mother. however wishes her
child to be as daintily and attractive
" clad as her means will allow.
For adorning the little frocks there
arc always tiny tucks and inset lace,
and fancy stitching.
Besides these, excellent results are
often achieved by working in little
motifs Of embroidery and the like
bought separately.
The corners of a delicately en-
broidered handkerchief can be utilized
FOR this purpose.
One mother uses in her daughter 5
wardrobe bits of hand-embroidery
taken from the remains of her old
lingerie blouses.
or course it does not pay TO put old
embroidery on perfectly new frock.
but there are often parts, where there
has been no strain. that are little worn
and almost as good as new.
Fine baby Irish is liked by the de-
signers Of children's clothes. but un-
less it is real Irish, it should not bo
considered.
Much softer and more childish is
valenciennes. and of this a good imi-
tation may be used.
