Now. in the height of summer. with
the flowers blossoming in profusion and
the tangible results of your toll in
lovely floral offerings at your feet, It
will not come amiss to consider the
garden as II Is and do the many little
things to further emphasize the beauty.
II the hardy plants have outgrown
their first supports, remove the sticks
that have become inadequate and place
sturdy square rods in their place. Very
heavy bushes or trees should be given
an extra support OF twigs OF brush
wood.
Remember the maxim, AS the twig is
bent" and take the tender, flexible
trees In time, so that ample support will
Insure straight limbs. The ready hand
and quick eye of an enthusiastic gar
dener will discover the least leaning of
a young tree and will remedy the de-
feet.
Look Out Tor Weeds.
In the case OF borders there should
be good supervision. The flowers have
a firm hold and are blooming in lovely
profusion. They must not be overrun'
with unseen weeds or struggling ends
Of Towering plants.
Cut and clip the parts of the plant
up all little shoots that are too young
to amount to anything in the month
left Of summer and yet take nourish-
ment from the larger plants. Keep the
borders straight, well cleaned, and fair
ly open and they viii reward you for
your work.
All side shoots OF dahlias, chrysanthe-
NUNS. phlox, &C.. should be removed.
The straight stems with the main foli-
age and buds at the top are the better
propositions IL you would have large,
healthy blooms
Don't forget the proper aeration of
the soil, How many gardeners care
fully water their plants and ignore the
useful hoe. Plants breathe by means
or their leaves and roots. II the soil
Is loosened the air can more readily
reach the roots and double the benefits
received. Indeed. IL hoeing is regu-
larry done during drought. the alb
sence of water will not be keenly felt.
The soil should not become caked; the
proper chemical changes must be al
lowed to take place from aeration. Use
a Dutch hoe and a long fork known
as the border fork" On light sandy
soils mix a little manure in the zoos
ened ground.
1t Is hardly necessary to emphasize
the importance Of removing all seed

In common with a goodly NUMBER o.

The Philadelphia Inquirer, in comment
ing upon the innovation. says that in
these days domestic requirements are
much fewer than formerly. which Is
quite true. But Its understanding OF the
fewer requirements is a bit misleading
and shows the popular lack OF appre-
citation OF what housekeeping really
covers. It says:
ITO know how to cook, or superintend
cooking. to know how TO purchase sup
piles, to know how TO keep the nome

The craze for punch work seems to
be Just as great as ever. This work
is as suitable for clothes as it is for

a blouse, IT is well to run in a few
tucks from the neckline down. and after
fitting the blouse perfectly. these tucks
may be let out.
The finished work will take up this
small allowance of material without
which the yoke would be too tight. One
should use a sail needle, which can be

WOMEN WHO HAVE WRESTED
A COMFORTABLE LYING
FROM OLD MOTHER EARTH

Mary Rankin Cranston. New York
librarian, a few years ago fell victim &c
the country microbe. She was giving
all her mental and physical strength &c
her work, getting in return a good
enough salary, as salaries go, but only
that and nothing more.
She hunted about found a little farm
in New Jersey, made a payment on il
with her savings OF six years-savings
from money earned by extra work. NOT
from her regular salary-and two and
a half years later she quit library
work for good and moved out to her
farm.
She planted potatoes and failed. She
planted rye and failed But In the sec
ond failure she learned a lesson about
raising hay that was worth the failure.
She .nursed the fruit trees already on
the place. and added more, planted some
berry bushes, bought some chickens. and,
for the first time in her life, knew the
real meaning OF the word 'independ-
enceL"

From the beginning the little farm of
fourteen acres has paid living expenses.

Housekeeper. she finds 1t in the hens

is one hanging on the berry bushes or
on the fruit trees; and from the hay

buggy. as the need OF the moment may
be. So far Mrs Cranston has done all
Of the work herself except the blowing,

den, crops, and housekeeping all alone,
and love every bit of it," she declares.

she has received enough from magazine
articles and from lectures to pay for a
new house.
She would not recommend her sort of
farm life for leisure lovers. but in re-
turn for constant work and good man
agement she has found independence.
