DON'T TRY FOR TOO MUCH.
Give Your Vegetables Room Is Good
Gardeners Motto.

Give Your Vegetables Room Is Good
Gardeners Motto.
Do not be afraid to thin out your
plants. They must not be crowded.
Probably more garden stuff has been
ruined for want of being thinned at
the proper time than by any other
cause.
However that may be. one Of the
most puzzling things for the beginner
is to find out whether any particular
vegetable should be thinned or trans
planted, and how far apart the plants
should stand afterward.
He will get some help from the cat
alogues as to the distances. but wheth-
er he should transplant or thin is the
kind of thing that is not in the book.
1t requires a good deal Of nerve to
pull up and destroy the unnecessary
seedline-more nerve than the amateur
possesses. They say that person new
err becomes a good gardener until ne
steels his nerve to this ruthless sacri-
fee.
A vegetable must have plenty OF
room to develop it's best size and flavor,
and one can take no pride in small or
commonplace vegetables. True 1t Is
that "the worst weed in corn is corn. ="

LESSONS FROM FRENcHMEN.'
Some Methods by Which They Grow
Double Our Wheat Weld.

In France wheat farming is ALWAYS
combined with some other branches
Of agriculture, such as sheep raising
or the growing Of beets, and often the
three go together successfully. In
America we are accustomed to think
that in order to raise wheat success.
fully one must plant hundreds Of acres
and devote his entire time to this crou
The statement that it doesn't paw to
raise wheat on the small farms In the
east is often heard, but is without
foundation. The average wheat crop
in the west, on the farms devoted
exclusively to that cereal, Is about
fifteen bushels an acre; in France.
where wheat is grown in rotation with
other crops, the average is about
thirty-five bushels.
The wheat farm that the writer Wis
tied comprises a thousand acres and
is situated on level plateau, from
which on clear days the spires of Paris
may be seen. On the afternoon Of the
writer's visit the men were all busy
planting wheat and gathering beets.
The first signs of life to be seen as the
visitor approached were two focks of
sheep-about 1000 in all-feeding on
beet tops under the care of two shep-
herds with their dogs. Beyond the
sheep and bit nearer the buildings
were the men loading beets into enor-
nous two wheeled carts, each being
drawn by three Percheron stations
driven tandem.
Beyond the harvesters were three
sets Of two furrow plows working,
each drawn by six white oxen.
The plows, which were of the two
furrow reversible type, were built with
a pair of wheels in front to tighten the
draft and with four plows keyed in
pairs to two parallel steel beams,
which were fastened to the axle of the
wheels by a ball and socket joint
Each pair of plows was placed one
over the other so that when one was
in the furrOW the mate was upside
down in the air directly over it. At
the end of the furrow the plowman
by means of a lever turned each beam
half round, throwing the pillow with
moldboard on the right hand side into
the air and bringing the left hand
moldbOard into the furrow. The plow-
men were followed by three teams
of oxen that narrowed the field, and
these were followed by two grain
drills. To a stranger it was a novelty
to see all these operations taking
place at the same time.-Country
Gentleman.

over and sown with grass and all I'm
slightly brush and weeds removed. In
short, wherever possible the road
should run between strips of smooth
green sward. and suitable shade trees
should be planted at intervals so as
to provide pleasing appearance to
the road and shade for the traveller.
SHADE trees are an important factor
in reducing the cost of maintenance Of
macadam roads by reason of the fact
that they prevent the road from dry
ing out and becoming dusty In the Sc
lection Of shade trees care should be
taken to secure only those which are
suited to local conditions. In all cases
it is well to choose tree that is hardy
grows rapidly and has abundant foil
age. A good plan is to plant trees
with tops fifty feet apart, but alter
mating on each side of the road so that
there will be tree every twenty-five
feet. In some portions of Germany
fruit trees are planted extensively
along the roadside. and a cOnsidera BILE
revenue is derived from the sale of
fruit.
There are great variety of condi-
lions existing in the United States. and
it would be impossible to designate
list Of trees which would be adapta BILE
to all the road conditions which might
exist in the United States unless it
were desirable to limit the list to fruit
or nut bearing trees. If this were the
case the fruit bearing trees which
would be best adapted to road condi
lions would be the apple and possibly
the pear in some localities Apples
would cover all that section of eastern
United States north of the Carolinas

NUNS GARB is UPHELD
President Declines to Bar it From
Indian Schools

WESTINGHOUSE Secretary Fishers &C
ton last January in revoking the or
der of ex-Indian Commissioner Valen-
tine, barring religious garb or insignia
from government Indian schools, was
upheld by President Taft in an order
made public.
The decision of the president is that
teachers now employed in Indian
schools may continue to wear the
garb of their religious orders, but the
privilege is denied to any persons
hereafter entering the service
The presidents ruling is the final
step in a controversy that has engag-
ed the interior department with religi-
GUS bodies more than a year. Com
missioner Valentines order would
have prohibited any teachers from
wearing religious garb in the Indian
schools after the end of the last school
year. Catholic priests were affected
by the order.

NATIONS AGREE ON
DIVIDING PERSIA

London.-The practical division of
Persia between Great Britain and Rus
STA appears assured as a result of the
conferences which Serius Sazanoff,
the Russian foreign minister, has had
with their statesmen.
All the newspapers which are in
closest touch with the foreign office,
particularly the Times, looked upon
recently as Sir Edward Grey's mouth
piece, are forecasting this arrange
ment and apparently preparing the
public mind for it. The necessity of
preserving order in the interests of
trade is the principal reason advanc-

Some of the Liberal papers bewail
the disappearance of Persia as the buff
fer state and foresee a great increase
in the British military establishment
when the British-Russian boundary is
drawn across the middle of what is
now Persia.
