THE SENTIMENT OF GARDENS

II UBLIC gardens, like public parks,
may be beautiful and useful, but
they are ever public gardens; it
is the private gardens, the green places
dedicated to thought and affection,
which alone are lovable and which
make home possible even amid the
crowded streets.
A home garden may be a tiny plot
of ground fenced in by hedge or it
may be a stately garden walled in by
great terraces, but it must be ours
alone to wander in, to cherish and to
love. Thoreau, Wordsworth, Bryant or
any of our great writer's of flowers and
trees did not find pleasure in public
gardens, no matter how grand they
might be. 1t was the small garden or
the single flower which appealed to
them. Disraeli, whose love for flowers
surprised those who only recognized
the brilliant intellect of the man, loved
the sweet smelling, what we now know
as the old-fashioned kind of flowers.
Herrick cherished the homely, kindly,
hardy things of which we hear little
these days. In fact, the poets of Eng
land wrote much of the musk plants,
the sweet smelling thyme, the Glove
pinks, the lavender, the moss rose and
the mignonette.
1t was in these Old-1aSnloned garueIS
that Shakespeare, Wordsworth ana
Ben Jonson gathered their posies.
A love of flowers shows a delicacy of
sentiment for other things. 1t would
be difficult for one to love rose and
not the lark.
Children should never be allowed to
pick flowers, even in the fields, merely
to throw away. They should be taught
early a reverence for the beauty of the
flower ard to care for them tenderly.
1t gives a valuable moral lesson and
leads to a taste and feeling which will
give many glad hours later. Children
all take a delight in gardening; make
this an intelligent delight.

| q

and inside The taking out of the top
allows more strength to concentrate
in the lower sides and they become
rich and strong to the ground, so that
they not only produce more fruit, but
afford their crop more protection by
dense side foliage. Thus an increase
in both quantity and quality of fruit is
effected. But this is still further aug
mented by the crop grown inside.
This inside crop is as we'll very su-
perior fruit for packing as it is pro-
tected from the wind, and as well there
is always a sufficient thin foliage swim
ming over the inside rim of the cup
to protect from sunburn. In such
pruning only the saw is required, and
care must be exercised to cut all limbs
fully back to the eye. and no limbs
should be nipped or cut on any part
of its length or between buds, as in
such case it will either die back or
sprout like a broom. This method or
pruning is not expensive, and can be
done very quickly by anyone who can
handle a saw properly 1t cannot be
done periodically every few years, put
each year the trees should be gone
over. The first year it will be found
that but one, two or three limbs can
be profitably and safely removed.
The next year another limb or two
can be removed, until the proper inside
shape and healthy fruiting wood IS
produced. The increase both in guam
tity and quality of the crop Will more
than offset the seeming loss of crop
suggested by removing the central
limbs reaching up into the top.

REASON FOR SECRET PRAYER

The late Bishop Hare, of South Da-
kota. often in his sermons brought out
a point with an apt story, says the
Louisville Times.
',rhese religious and unscrupulous
financiers.". he said in winter dis
course in Deadwood, remind me of a
little philadelphia girl l know.
This little girl insisted, at bedtime
on saying her prayers by herself. she
was allowed to do so. Later her mother
asked her why she had demanded this
right of private prayer For long
time the little girl refused to answer,
but finally, after much coaxing, she
said:
"I 'jes' wanted to give tanks for
bein' lowed to steal some Christmas
fruit cake'''

TELESCOPES TURNED
ON SKY WANDERER
Heavenly Body Is Approaching the
Earth at the Rate of Two
Million Miles Each
Day

SAN JOSE, Jan. 16.-All telescopes
are now turned in the direction of
Halley's comet, which is approaching
the earth at the rate of 100000 miles
a day. While this most wonderful
of all comets, which crosses the path
of the earth once in about every sew
enty years, canpot yet be seen by the
naked eye. it has been photographed
at the Lick observatory several times
within the last three months, and may
now be picked up with small tele-
scopes.
Two or possibly three months may
elapse before ii can be seen without
the aid of a telescope, but in time il
will blaze forth with wonderful bril-
liancy. 1t is now passing from the
constellation Of Aries into Pisces, and
at the end of the month will set about
p. m. Halleys comet has been one
of the important phenomena in the
history of astronomy.
Chinese and European astronomers
record appearances of the comet in
1873, 1456, 1881 and 1907, but it was not
until the son of a London soapmaker,
Edmund HALEY, in 1852, associated
these appearances that the science of
identifying comets was established
The comet moves in a great ellipse,
stretching out beyond the orbit of
Neptune.
OF all the comets with periods less
than eighty years Halley's is the only
one which moves with a retrograde
motion-that is, in the direction op-
posite to the motions of all the planets
about the sun.

BARS AGAINST COMMERCE IN
CHEN TAO REMOVED
Matter of Tariffs to Be Collected on
Korean Manchurian Border
Soon Will Come Up for
Settlement

PEKING, Jan. 16.-China has opened
Hun Chun and Lun Chin Chun in
CHEN Tao, Manchuria, to international
trade, Notwithstanding an agreement
has not been reached, with Japan re-
garding the matter of-tariffs to be col
lected on the Korean -Manchurian Aor-
der
The questions of tariffs will come up
for settlement soon.
Hun Chun and Lun Chin Chun are
two of the treaty ports provided for
in the agreement between Japan and
China, signed at Paking September 4,
and designed to settle the Chien Tao
boundary dispute between the two
countries.
A diSa greement arose recently over
the subject,of Korean immigration into
Chen Tao. This and the question of
the tariffs delayed the promised open
ing, which was expected January l.
The Importance of the opening of
Hun Chun to foreign commerce is ap-
parent when it is understood the town
is nine miles northeast of the Korean
boundary, 35 miles above the mouth
of the Tumon river and less than 100
miles from VladiVostok.

LACK OF DEMAND FOR
STOCKS DULLS TRADE
PAYMENTS ON NEW CAPITAL
ISSUES GRIP MONEY
Large Sums Used in Enterprises Not
Listed in Market Play lmpor-
tant Part in Speculative
Transactions

NEW YORK, Jan. 16.-Pressure to
liquidate speculative holdings which
carried prices downward in last weeks 5
stock market was accounted for by un-
favorable news. The selling was pushed
on good news as well, indicating the
conviction of holders that the level of
prices already had anticipated the ad-
vantages derived from those happen
ings.
A general movement assigned for the
liquidation was the disappointment
that a general public demand for stocks
had not developed with the distribution
of profits to supply funds available for
investment.
The money stringency abated ma
terially in New York, and there was a
worldwide relaxation on money rates
and a substantial recuperation in condl-
tions of the great central reserve banks
abroad. The pressure to sell stocks
diminished as this relaxation pro-
! gressed. but no aggressive demand
1 awakened. The necessity of preparing
for other demands for money in pros
pect was the supposed cause of this abb
stention from strengthening the securi-
ties market on the part of large specu-
lative operators.
BeIated Payments Cause Squeeze
In New York large payments soon
must be made of subscriptions to new
capital issues. Belated preparations by
syndiCates for making these payments
played an important part in the squeeze
in the money market with which the
year opened. 1t is evident also large
sums are being embarked in enter
prises that have no representation in
listed securities. Light. traction and
telephone mergers and great irrigation
projects are among the enterprises Of
this character
Favorable advices continue from most
branches of industry. The substantial
reduction in surplus stocks of refined
copper for December made a good inn
preston in that trade.
Much of the stock liquidation of the
early part of the week was believed to
be due to adjustments of accounts
necessitated by ock Island disciplinary
measures.
Deeper causes underlying the re-
action were, nevertheless, generally
recognized. The question of relation
between the national government and
corporations was kept in a prominent
place by the Introduction of bills in
congress embodying President Taft
recommendations and by conferences
by Union Pacific and government Of
ficials, looking toward settlements of
the suits to dissolve the Hartman
merger
