IMPORTANCE OF PURE WATER
Problem Is One of Most Difficult That
Many Poultry Raisers Have to
Contend With.

One of the prob ems of the poultry
yard is how to supply water to the
fowls in cold weather at such a tenn
rerature that they will not be chilled
through when they drink. Hot water
is not good for the hen, and she dis
likes it, as does q man, when it is
merely warm.
Plenty of pure fresh water is a ne
cessity of the laying hen. and she
wants it just cool enough to quench
her thirst People who are on the
lookout for eggs will see to it that
water is supplied often, and, if posi-
BILE in vessels that will not freeze over
or become foul.
A vessel with an outer jacket some
thing like a fireless cooker. taken in
to the house at night. and wa med

BEWARE THE TREE BUTCHER
Indianapolis, Speaking from Expert
ence, Sounds Warning That 10
Well Worth Heeding.

The influence of the tree trimmer In
increasing the susceptibility of tree
to insect attack is often OF more i'm.
portance than would appear at first
glance. Many trees are so weakened
by wanton butchery that they become
an easy prey to the various borers
that seldom attack vigorous trees.
While this vandalistic form of injury
is preventable it is surprising how
many people continue to allow the
tree butchers to ruin fine shade trees.
The tree butcher goes on P. T. Bar
NUNS old assumption that there is
sucker born every minute" The
truth of this was well shown In In.
dianapolis last year when soma
itinerant tree doctor" went about
painting the trunks of shade trees
with dope" containing tar. Ac.
cording to the selfstyled expert, the
preparation was absorbed through the
bark and then disseminated to ali
parts of the tree, killing any bugs"
that might be present. When theirs
was no evidence of any insect injury
the tree doctors would suggest the
use of the tar paint to "open up the
pores of the bark and make the tree
healthy" 1t seems almost too alb
surd to believe that intelligent citi-
zens would be caught by such fax.
er, but even after series of news.
paper warnings he succeeded in paint
ing hundreds of trees throughout the
city. The deplorable thing about 1t
all is that practically every tree that
was painted died-and there appears
to be no law to cover the case.-In'

Residential Sections.

When the owner of tract Of land
conceives the idea of creating a resi-
dence park, the first advice sought Is
that of a real estate expert in this
class of work assisted by skilled
landscape engineers. Such men know
how to make the tract more beauti.
full. They know the value of curves:
they understand how to obtain eff.
fects that are pleasing and restful.
And so the streets are curved, the
lots cut large and laid out to give
the best exposure and views; all
wires are laid in underground con-
duits, thus avoiding unsightly poles
and overhead wires. The streets are
parked and terraced and set to grass
and sritable shrubs and flowers
When all this is done, the land is
offered for sale subject to building
restrictions. These restrictions are a
complete guarantee of security They
safeguard the entire investment.
They reserve the entire residence
park exclusively for homes.

CITY GARDEN IDEA IS GOOD
Baltimore, Seeing Success MInneapo-
lis Made, VIII Follow In Sister
City's Footsteps.

1t was recently mentioned as being
part of the plans which the Women's
Civic League of Baltimore has In con-
temptation that vacant lot farming is
to be encouraged. In almost every
city where this scheme of helpfulness
has been utilized the urban waste
places have been tried the results have
been satisfactory far beyond the ini-
tial hopes of those who have been in
strumental in putting the scheme into
operation. Minneapolis last year In.
troduced the vacant lot garden scheme
with dazzling success. 1t not only
supplied many needy families with a
food supply, but it compelled low.
ering of the enormously high prices
demanded for vegetables by the re.
tailers.
Minneapolis has just about half the
population of Baltimore, and occupies
nearly double the ground space. It Is
quite apparent, therefore, that there
are more vacant lots scattered about
In Minneapolis than in Baltimore. But.
all the same, there Is a considerable
uAnOuAC VI lulS 1duu, IN DullQ1ng-IOI
sizes, distributed over Baltimore. In
the suburban sections particularly
there are many lots upon which build.
ing improvements are not in immedi.
ate contemplation In Minneapolis
and other cities many such idle lots
have willingly been loaned to the city
garden organizations.
These lots are given out In limited
assignments to families that will un.
dertake to farm them. BY judicious
management considerable food sup.
ply can be grown on small piece of
land. For instance, on strip of land
ten feet wide and twenty -one feet long
twenty-one tomato plants may be prop
erly planted A single tomato plant
sometimes yields, during a season,
bushel of tomatoes, and SO bit of
land ten by twenty feet may yield over
twenty bushels of this fruit. There
are other vegetables that give returns
in like proportions. The city garden
scheme is one which helps people to
help themselves.

Smooth Gentlemen

There are a lot of smooth
gentlemen in this country who
smilingly inform us thata sucker
is born every minute, that few
die, and none ever stop sucking
These So-called "suckers" hey
tell us they have their savings
| deposited in Savings Banks, aud
are content to receive a meager
plttance of 5 per cent. The thing
to do. according to their theory.
is to show them how to make
their money earn 5 per cent a
week or a minute (the amount
being limited only by the imagi-
nation of fthe promoter) and then
you get the sucker on the string
Our theory is that the man who
has his money in> e. .tel in a bank
as safe as this one better leave 1t
there because while the rate of
interest is but 5 cent, the rate Of
security is 100 per cent and the
latter feature is by no means to
be ignored in deciding where to
place your money. Don't think
that some CRATER who never
saw you has more interest in
you than your home banker.
The former is after your money
only. Look out for him. Come to
us and get the facts regarding
any scheme which may be pre-
sented to you
