Attention to Root Growth

By assisting the young plants so properly establish their root systems. With a shovel, blow CT sweep IuA a moderately deep furrow on each side of the corn or cotton row Whe,, the plants are 10 or 12 inches ta.' Leave these furrows open for 10 or 12 days, if conditions permit This will cause the lateral rcots of the plants to strike deeply into the soi in order to pass beneath the open furrows. The roots are thus put ont of the way of future cultivations, ana the scorching heat and drying wind , of the drouthy period The fiTs cultivation and the later cnes mu [ be very shallow but just at this t:me we must have some reasonable deep cultivation.
 Clean Cultivation

TO keep down weeds and grass some thing more than light, shallow culti- yation may be required fer while. If you find t necessary, do not hesi- tate to use the shovel and sweeps, or even the turning ploy. The time fo" shallow cultivation will arrive later

so WISE ONES DECLARE

Want less than you have, and YOU will
always lave more than you want.
The discovery Of what is true. and the
practise of what is good. are the two
most important objects of life.
The strongest plume In wisdom's opin-
Ion Is the memory of past folly.
The first ingredient In conversation is
truth, the next good sense, the third
good humor and the fourth wit.
Doing, not dreaming, y the secret of
success. Thinking out plans will not

A LINGERIE HANDBAG

Many are the charming designs for
handbags which the girl or woman
who is planning her lingerie frocks
may fashion with small trouble and
expense at home. One model which
is excellent for a launderable bag of
white pique, linen or crash, as we'll as
for printed cretonnes n cottons of
alluring coloring. is made by doubling
an NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. strip of the
chosen material, cutting the lower
one-third of the length into a sharp
'.V' and sloping the sides of the re-
naming two-thirds 50 that the upper
end will measure three inches across
each side. nus forming an opening
sufficiently large to admit a hand OF
average size. The edges of one or
gboth sides of this bag may then be
bordered with hand embroidery, ap-
piled cut work Or soutache braidins.
and then buttonholed together and
trimmed with cotton fringe, and at
the ends of the top opening may be
attached a handle of cable %'cording
concealed by crochet cabochons.

There is a pleasing LONELINESS
about a chintz room which gives 1t a
subtle attraction. Most women at
this time of year are attacked with a
laudable desire to redress their rooms
SO that the time of summer and the
singing. birds is suggested and win
ter's sunless cold forgotten.
The most obvious way to achieve
the redressing is to choose a suitable
chintz and to order loose covers for
all the chairs and sofas, ottomans n
cushions in the room. The favorite
colorings this season give a range OIL
tulip shades, purple. rose-red, a deep
buff, or scarlet. These have sometimes
a black ground, as in the days OF
Louis Philippe, huge, soft cushions,
square or round in shape, are of down
covered with silk and have no pen

Poem by Thomas Moore

Dear Miss Doom:
Can you publish the poem OF which TINS
quotation Is a part:
.sYou may break, you may snatter inc
vase, IL you will,
D.. tho scent of the roses will hang
round 1t still"
Thanking you very much, l am CRATE
fully yours,
The lines o refer to are found in
the following poem. by nomas
Moore:
ia revell.-but whenever you welcome the
hour
That awakens the night-song of mirth in
your bower,
Then think of the friend who once wei
coined 1t, too,
And forgot his own griefs, to be happy
with you.
His griefs may r~eturn-not a nope may
remain
OF the few that have frightened his
pathway of pain
Rut he meier can forget the short vision
that threw
It's enchantment around MIN Wniio hnsoi
ing with you!
And still on that evening when pleasure
fills up
To the highest top sparkle each heart and
each cup.
| Wbere'er my path lies, be 1t gloomy or
bright,
My soul, happy friends! will be with you
that night:
Shall Join in your revels, your sports and
your wiles,
And return to me-, beaming all "'ar with
your smiles!
Too blest II 1t tell me that, mid the gay
cheer,
| Some kin voice has murmured, II wish
he were here!"
Let fate do her worst, there are relics
of Joy,
Bright dreams Of the past, which she
cannot destroy;
Which come, In the nighttime Of sorrow
and care,
And bring back the features which you
used to wear.
Long, long be my heart with such memo
ries flled!
Like the vase in which roses have once
been distilled
You may break, you may ruin the vase,
If you will,
But the scent of the, roses will hang
round 1t still.

FIREPLACE in SUMMER

The fireplace In summer Is always
somewhat of a worry to the house,
wife. This, however, by a little
trouble, can be converted into a really
artistic spot. A Japanese pot of a
quaint design filled with branches of
copper beach is very beautiful, or the
fireplace can be. made into a minia-
ture rockery. Fresh green ferns ar
ranged In tiers, with shells OIL pebbles
to-hide the pots, are all that is need
ed, and it is surprising the cool, re-
freshing look these give to a room
in summer IL kept free from dust and
in a healthy condition.
