seems that the stove pipe. where it
goes through the wooden wall, had
become overheated and ignited the

pasted on cheese cloth and this made
the fire spread very rapidly.

department was ON the scene with
two lines Of hose. One line was
taken up stairs, but owing to the
dense smoke issuing from the build
ing. the firemen were repulsed. Tho
other line was taken up a ladder
and put through a window where IT
did very effective work. The build
ing is one of the first erected I'm

being plastered. The fire got in be-
tween these board walls and ran
through the cracks with frightful RAJ
pidity and made 1t hard to get wa-

was extinguished and the greatest
damage was caused by the excess

used though the firemen were as
careful as possible and did not use
any more than they could help.
That the whole block, which is
composed of wooden buildings, was

START CAMPAIGN
FOR IMPROVEMENT
Public School Grounds in
New Mexico to Be Beau
tilted.

Las Cruces, n. NJ. May The New
Mexico Agricultural college has started
a campaign to encourage the beautify-
ing of the public school grounds in
New Mexico and the southwest
Professor Fabian Garcia, head of the
horticultural department Of the college.
has interested himself in this move
ment and is doing all that is possible
to make it generally accepted. He
states that for school grounds, the na-
tural style of planting for plants and
trees should be adopted, as it is the
simplest ard the best. The planting
should be irregular and natural, hiding
from view the diSagreeable features Of
the grounds. Plant on the sides and in
the back or in the direction Of the
prevailing winds if 1t can be done with
out obstructing the view of the place.
Group the paintings as much as posi-
BILE, he says, but If the grounds are too
small to permit of maSsing, then plant
single specimens The trees and larg-
er shrubs to be used in the main plant
ings should be set out for their foliage
effect, as well as for their usefulness.
Flowers are the natural trimmings to
the larger paintings. but are not recon-
mended for school grounds
Since all school ground. planting in
this section must be done under irri-
cation and frequently with a limited
amount of irrigation, it is advisable
to select the hardest plants possible
There are two classes of trees. as far
as their adaptability is concerned; the
long and the short lived kinds. The
latter are generally the fastest grow
ers. but they require a great deal more
water and attention. The poplar. the
cottonwood, the sycamore and the ca
talpa are some of these kinds which
are the most used in this section of
the country. The locust, elm, ash and
mulberry are some of the most popular
long lived trees. but they are very
slow in their growth. In the planting
of school grounds different kinds Of
trees should be used; the fast growers
for quick effect and the slow growers
for permanent use. Hardy evergreens,
