For Beautiful Chinatown.

The idea of the city beautiful Is
gaining ground. Even Chinese resi-
dents of America are taking it up
The Chinese chamber of commerce IN
Angeles has adopted a plan for
a Beautiful Chinatown IN
that city. 1t includes projects Tor a
large number of buildings of the ORR
entail type, with p%agodas, a tea gar
den and other things. This sounds
like a permanent Midway of the chi
nese type. OF course, business con-
siderations are at the back of the
enterprise; the projectors think tina
the Chinese residents will thus win
more attention from Americans. But
~ this Los Angeles movement helps
70 end the Chinatown eyesores that
exist in many places, it is a movement
toward the good. 1t is interesting TO
note that many Chinese ~progresslves
urge steps in an opposite direction;
thew would have Cinnamon in Amer
lea adopt American customs in the
matter of buildings, clothing. etc. II
this progressive idea carries the day,
the distinctive Asiatic features OF
Chinatowns would disappear.

IS Helps
THE JAPANESE STYLE
Many Prefer This Form Of Landscape
Art in Making Plans for
Their Gardens.

Many admirers of Japanese art have
treated their backwards in the Japa
nese style, which lends itself admir-
ably to small places. 1t Is a style
which requires considerable taste and
artistic ability to handle properly. II
not we'll done, it becomes grotesque
and ridiculous. One very successful
example of this style is the garden
of Mrs. Lillian Burkhardt Goldsmith,
the we'll known actress and
reader. The messy hills, the water
fall. paths and tiny stream were all
laid out and very largely made by
her skilful hands. One of the lovellest
things in the garden is the wistarla
arbor, in spring a mass of pendent
lavender chains.
Instead of laying the emphasis on
the garden plan, n may use the PACK
yard as a place to collect rare ana
g unusual plants. Better still, n may
make a collection of all the species
and varieties of n family or may
raise trees and shrubs from seed.
One Berkeley professor Is making a
collection of iris and is now looking
forward to the blooming periods or 10
new varieties recently imported from
Palentine. Watching these come into
bloom will not only give pleasure 10
the family, but to many friends ana
neighbors.
Growing lilies, %tises, dahlias and
gladiolus from seed are very fasclnat-
ing. They vary so from seed that any
one is likely to get some new ana
beautiful varieties. There is great
pleasure in watching the blooming OF
each new seeding.
The forms of back yards are endless
as the people themselves, for each
back yard should express the 1ndlvlo-
uality of the owner, and should be Ia
keeping with the house and the sur
roundings.
A simple cottage will have a simple
yard gay and sweet with homellke
lowers. The stately colonial house
will have the formal garden with sun
dial. pool and rose garden. The lines
of the house will dominate the gar
den and both will form that harmoni
GUS whole which we delight to cal
home.-Boston Globe.

Say Farmers Selling
Too Many Cattle.

Jackson Miss, Feb. 5 That
the stockmen of Mississippi have
been killing the goose destined
TO lay the golden egg is the as
sertion by those familiar with
the status of the cattle industry
in this state.
For the past three months there
has been an unprecedented de-
mand for Mississippi cattle on
the St. Louis market, buyers OF
commission firms have secured
the state in search of desirable
herds, and instead of Mississippi
having the live stock industry
we'll launched, the supply OF cat
tie for pasture during the ap-
preaching spring and summer
is smaller than for many years.
High prices have been paid at
St. Louis, even for poor cattle,
and this has induced many FAR
mers to sell off their herds almost
without reservation. Especially
does this apply to the ordinary
grades of cattle. Breeders OF
pure-blooded stock have shown
more discretion and business
judgement, but, unfortunately
the class of farmers who raise
Herefords and Durhams is not
large.
The heavy sales of the past
few months, and consequent
lack of interest among farmers,
has had a depressing effect on
the campaign for the eradication
of the cattle tick, and the Live
Stock Sanitary Board realizes
that it is going to be a difficult
task to hold some of the counties
in line.
The supply of beef cattle In
Mississippi is so short that the
butchers are encountering mucf
trouble in getting native cattle
for slaughter, and some of the
meat dealers in larger towns are
having cattle shipped in from
Texas for slaughtering purposes

Increased Acreage Advocated.

The very good price at which
the last cotton crop has sold has
greatly encouraged the farmers
of the South. They have seen
the two largest crops in the his
tory of the cotton industry grown
in succession and bringing prices
that would have been considered
high even when the crop was
barely half what it is now. They
have also noted that the world
has absorbed those two big crops
and shows signs of wanting even
greater supplies for the future.
There is, therefore, every lncen-
tive for increasing acreage dur
ing the current year, and from
all accounts farmers all over the
South are buying live stock, farm
implements and fertilizers on a
scale that indicates more plainly
than mere reports of intended
increases in acreage that a big
crop is to be planned for.
While there is every reason
WHY farmers should increase
4hair cotton acreage, they should
be warned against the danger of
returning to the old system of a
single crop. Crop Investigation
is as essential to prosperity now
as it was during the compare
lively lean years some time
back. The Southern agricultu-
raj interest can never enjoy full
independence and reap the full
profits arising from the sale OF
the cotton crop until practically
all the supplies consumed on the
farm are produced at home.
There is every promise that In
those states where the boil weevll
has wrought so much, damage in
recent years the pest is rapidly
disappearing. 1t is therefore
likely that Louisiana and Mississ'
ippi will plant more cotton dur
ing the present year than they
have for several years past
This state has been one OF the
worst sufferers from the boil
weevil, it's former crop having
been cut nearly two-thirds. Al
though our farmers have learn
ed to devote their energy in 9th
er directions they nevertheless
realize that cotton is the ideal
crop for the rich lands of Loulsl.
ana. hence as soon as they fee
that the weevil can be circum.
vented or got rid of they vii
return to their old industry
The South can grow cotton IN
greater quantities and more
cheaply than any other section
in the world. 1t would therefore
be unwise policy to purposeiy re
strict acreage and permit other
countries to profit by the high
prices that might temporarily
result. Our farmers should sup
ply the world with practically
ali the cotton that it can con
sumo and not endeavor to artlfi
cially limit the supply for a small
additional profit IN. 0. Plea

Beautifyina the Home.

All decorative planting of home
grounds should have for it's first and
highest aim the identifying of the
home, for the enjoyment of the home
people. How it will look to outsiders
is never to be lost sight of, but the
first consideration should be, must be,
how it will look from within. 1t must
be a home picture for home-folk. This
same law of construction should rule
within and without.
