VALUE OF LEAF MOLD
Especially important Ingredient
for the Soil
Quality Of Fertilizer Secured Depends
Very Materially on Sort Of Leaves
Composing Il and Manner
Of Preparation.
CRy 81. b aILRERrl

This term is applied 10 leaves when
they are so thoroughly decayed as 70
readily separate small particles
Leaf molds IL a valuable manure
in many instances. especially on
heavy soils, and one r the most i'm
portant ingredients for the soil used
in the successful cultivation OF the
majority OF plants
It may be used freely. particularly
with the tender seedlings and cuttings
.of sole wooded subjects. provided IL
be of good quality and free from in
furious growth.
The production of roots in young
plants of this description Is induced
and accelerated with NOR certainty
by planting In this material than by
the use OF any other.
The quality of leaf raid depends
very materially upon the sort OF
leaves composing it and in the man
ner of preparation adopted
1t is found from experience that the
best leaves are those collected from
wood or other place whe.r the prin-
cipal trees are beech and oak, and
where their leaves fall over a large
surface each year. and naturally de-
cay slowly. until those beneath the
surface become changed into a light
mold.
Leaf mold of good quality may be
used to the extent of about one-third
in composts of azaleas, greenhouse
| rhododendrons. and many of the fine
rooted. rd-wooded plants of this de
scription.
1t may also with advantage be In
corporated along with peat in the
preparation OF the beds for nearly al
plants of the health family which are
grown out of doors.
Further, nothing is better suited fol
improving fiower,beds, or for addinl
to soil OF any description, for plac
ing around trees shrubs or plants
whose roots 1t Is desired TO encour
age.

Ny country / must serve thee well
To pay the debt ! owe to thee;
Thou givest me a place to dwell.
A place where l may hear and see
The matchless wonderwork OF spring,
Where I may view the April skies
And hear the deep-drawn, eager sigha,
The hopeful ardent. whispering
OF lovers wandering where May
Hath strewn her blooms along the way.
My country! must hold thee dear
For all the pleasures that l claim
For lack of bondage, for the fear
To do thee wrong or bring thee shamei
For freedom, for unsullied birth,
For sweet possession OF the right
To set my goal on any height
That ever has been won by Worth:
For those whose gladness gives me
glee-
Ny thanks, my love, my loyalty.

Bismarck, N. d., Feb. members
of the legislative committee Of the
North Dakota Hotel Mems association
are here and expect to spend several
days in the interest of uniform
hotel legislation that has been pro-
posed by the Northwestern Hotel
Mems association, comprising tho
states Of North and South Dakota
Minnesota, Iowa, and Nebraska. ]. D.
Bacon Of Grand Forks is a member
of the committee.
One of the measures in which the
hotel men are particularly interested
relates to the handling of deadbeats
and hotel crooks. A recent occurrence
bearing on that feature arose in
Minneapolis where distinguished ap-
pearing millionaire" spent some time
at a hotel, occupying the best suite.
and then departed without paying his
bill. It is with the idea Of securing
protection against this class of crooks
that the hotel men have united.
Other members in which they are
interested would provide uniform ser.
vice, and would increase the standards
OF requirements in many Of the hotels,
giving the patrons 1stter satisfaction.

low that it is question whether there
will be money enough to pay the
members and clerks at the end of the

talk of disposing of the appropriation
bills and adjourning about the end of
the fortieth day. The depleted finan-
