Majority Favor Paving.

Commissioner Korns declared that the
residents OF Ninth South street from
State street to Fifth East street were
also In favor OF paving. He contended
that even though the South State street
property owners did object 10 the paving,
there remained a sufficient amount of
frontage in the proposed extension to in
sure It's completion.
Mayor Park and Commissioner Morris
objected and voted against the Korns
amendment on two grounds. First. they
insisted that there was not sufficient
time In which to complete the whole ex-
tension this year. Secondly, they argued
that the whole extension would necessar-
lily have 10 be paved with the same ma
terial. and they desired 70 use tho con-
crete on State street owing to the low
price offeyed.
Commissioner Korns replied that the
extension could be created and the con-
tract let and so drawn that the Fifth
East and State street portions be done
this year and the Ninth South street
section in the spring. In tho matter OF
cost, he contended that the cItys por-
ton In any event. for the laying OF as
phelt paving on State street would not
be great as in case tho city paid the
entire expense OF concrete paving

Amendment Defeated.

After the defeat of the Korns amend
ment Commissioner Morris moved that
tho whole matter OF tho State street paw
ing embraced In the resolution be laid
on tho table for consideration after the
return OF Commissioners II. w. Lawrence
and G. y, Keyser. The motion carried
unanimously.
The city building inspector was in
structed TO notify the Newhouse Realty
company to remove within twenty days
the board fence surrounding the proper
" at the northeast corner OF State sire eft
and Exchange place.
The Empress theater petitioned TO be
allowed 10 erect three electric signs In
front OF Its theater. The petition was
referred TO the committee on public safe

On recommendation OF the legal depart
ment the city will pay William Irvine
500 for damages to his property on Cen
ter street by reason OF a change in the

Former Efforts Fail

Efforts made TO have the abutting
property owners pay their proportionate
share met with defeat, Commissioners
Morris and Mayor Park finally decided
that the city could afford to do the
work at its own expense. or could re-
ccive bids similar 10 the Moran propo-
sition.
Commissioner Korns objected TO this
procedure and insisted that the property
owners should be assessed. He offered

SEVEN YEAR MARRIAGE.

1 base my demand for a seven
year marriage lease on the race
that the human system changes
every seven years. One might %
madly in love during the first
period of married life and wake
up to find that husband or wife
was the complete reverse OF
ones dreams and wholly insult
able. and yet the other would be
doomed either to undergo the ig-
nomy Of a divorce suit or srug-
gle on bending the neck to
yoke more CALLING with each day
that passed.
On the other hand. II a lease
were signed at the time OF mar
riage. with the possibility OF
freedom at the end Of the given
term. should either desire 1t, con-
slider what 1t would mean. A
wife would conclude to keep 81.
lence, to reveal nothing OF do
nestle inharmony with the close
Of her seven year sentence In
sight. Both husband and wife,
with the knowledge that mutual
respect and reliance could only
bring about the perpetuation Of
the bond, would be less careless
Of each others rights and feel
ings. The children would escape
the heritage Of scandal which 40
often attaches to divorced par
ents.-Mrs. II. II. Dey.

Can the strawberry bed take care
II itself during the fall and winter?
Some people would answer this Ques-
don in the affirmative II We can Judge
BY the way their plants are taken care
Of But while the strawberries do
often take care Of themselves in win
ter, they will in nine cases out Of ten
repay the grower for a little extra
care at this time.
Two conditions are quite necessary
for the proper protection Of the bed
during winter. First. the ground
ehould be we'll supplied with moisture
% freezing weather comes on. When
che soil is dry and the winter proves
dry and severe, many plants may die
out before spring. Even in cases
where the plants are not killed out.
right, their vitality may be reduced
90 much as to seriously affect the sea-
sons crop II irrigation water Is avail
able. this requirement Is easily met.
The application need not be extra
heavy and may be applied at any time
after frost and before the ground
freezes. However, If the soil is moist
and some late fall and winter mois-
&nre can be depended upon, it will be
useless to irrigate. II no irrigation
water Is available, the moisture pres
ent may be conserved by late fall cul
tivation. II earlier cultivation has
been neglected and the bed suffers
during the winter, profit by the ex
perience and give the bed better cul
ovation another year.
Second, the ground should be pro
tected from rapid and frequent freez
ing and thawing. The best way to de
this is to give the bed light covering
of straw This mulch need be Onl!
two or three inches thick and shoult
cover the entire surface. This SHOULD
be applied as soon as the ground il
frozen and should not be removed un
til the plants start in the spring. |
left as long as possible it will retart
the blooming Of the plants and ma.
thus carry them safely through thu
spring frost period. The materia
should be as free from weed an,
grain seed as possible. Pea straw i
one of the most satisfactory material
for mulching This mulch will ais
save some moisture and protect tn
bed in this way While strawberre
frequently pass the winter unprotecl
ed, it pays in most cases to give then
some protection.
