What Iowa is Noted For.

Des Moines, March 22.-"Iowa has
many good things that the people of
our state don't know about" remarked
A. D. Mcclure Of Humeston. But one
OF them Is that Wayne county is the
second largest seed producing county
in the world and another is that Hum
eston has q creamery that ranks
with the biggest in the country. Hum.
eston supplies cream as far south as
st. Joseph, as far east as Keokuk and
throughout all of southern Iowa. The
butter manufactured here is sold most
" in New York city and in the New
England states, proving that Iowa COM
petes with New York state in dairy
products. 1t is to be regretted that
the state doesn't provide some means
for disseminating this knowledge
about, Iowa to the world as well as
among our own people.

Destined to Die Natural Death;
Cold Plunge Restores Him.
Tabor, March 22.-Temporarily in
sane, Sam Savage, 76 years old, and
prominent farmer and an early
settler, residing three miles south OF
Tabor, attempted suicide recently.
He went to an old house in the back
OF the yard, sharpened a butcher
knife and cut his throat from ear to
ear Unsuccessful in this mode of self
destruction he next tried to puncture
his 1ugular vein with rusty spike.
He then slid down a pump pipe into
the stock well. The water restored
his reason. He shouted and was res
cued. His wounds were dressed and
his recovery is probable.
He is an old soldier and has worried
much over the federal pension bill.

II the back yard is to be used as a
vegetable garden, it would be well to
separate it from the front yard by a
hedge of some evergreen plants or
trees.
The beauty of house may be en-
HANGED by the planting Of plants and
flowers in window boxes. The win
dow boxes should be filled with the
richest soil and leaf mould, so as to
give both nourishment and preserve
the moisture. The plants generally
used for planting in these boxes are
the following The periwinkle,
wandering Jew, nasturtium, sweet
pea, English ivy or other vines, UNI
brella palms, marguerites, gerani-
ums, petunias, coleus and begonias.
In all the work of decoration and

walks. II the garden is to be less
formal there should be much open
lawn and no flower beds should be in
the center of the lawn because they
minimize the size OF the lawn, and
they detract from the composition of
the whole.
The natural garden requires the
least attention, as almost all plants
used are perennials. They cost the
least to maintain and give a pleasing
winter effect. In such gardens all
unsightly features, such as sheds.
house foundations, porches. garbage
boxes, etc, can be, and should be.

sometimes in city one or two fami-
lies in certain parts of the city will
be the missionaries that will convert
that whole section of the city to the
planting of trees, and the making of
gardens for the Identification of
their homes and the city.
The manner of identifying or lay
Ing out of gardens differs of course,
with the exposure, the size of the
ground, arrangement of buildings,
the soil conditions and a dozen other
things. Yet as a rule the planting
should not be, nor is not, so very
dlihcult as not to be able to make
them harmonic with the general
planting along the street and to give
pleasing effect to the surroundings.
To have yine-covered fences or clip
ped hedges dividing off the city lots
destroys the pleasing effect along the
streets, and looks very unneigh borly
to say the least. With all the front
lawns along the streets opening into
one another, there is procured a
harmonious effect, and the street
takes on the appearance of a boule-
ward.
Very pleasing effects can be gotten
in many sections of the country by
planting castor beans against the
porches or houses with calodiums,
canas, coledS or geraniums in front
of them, but the best results are had
by planting such shrubs as lilacs,
mock orange. high bush cranberries,
altheas, spreas, ninebark and yanhut-
tel against the house or porch corn
ers with lower growing shrubs, such
as Weigelia, Japan ounce, California
priyet, strawberries, Indian currant,
thunbergia, barberries, etc, in front
of the high growing ones, forming a
| bank of foliage rising from the lawn
up against the house. These shrub
berry effects are permanent in charac-
ter and are almost as interesting
when the twigs are covered with
snow as when in bloom.
Backyard gardens may be made
either ornamental or useful, or both,
| by raising vegetables, in a part of it
in such a way as to harmonic with
the rest of the garden. We have
two general types of ornamental gar
dens. The purely naturalistic and
the geometric or formal and artiti-
cial In the formal gardens, such
plants as canas, stocks. balsams. cas-
tor beans, calodiums, salvias, four
o'clocks, alyssum, ETC., may be used
with low growing plants as borders
around individual masses of the high
er growing ones. These can be ar
ranged in squares, circles, stars and
other geometric figures, with heavy
grass lawns between the beds, and
