"Garden Tools"

Kipling says that a soldier is no
better than his feet, and it is equally
true that gardener is no better than
his tools. Much muscle, time and
perspiration is being wasted at this
very moment because of the use Of i'm
proper tools, or the misuse Of the
proper ones for the purpose. Most Of
this waste of time is due to lack of
information about tools on the part of
the user, and the misinformed pur-
chaser can secure little intelligent
information from the average hard
ware clerk, as most Of them seem to
have been recently promoted from
the ribbon department or the soda
fountain.
1t is much easier to do garden work
with sharp tools. Every stroke Is
clean and true and it goes where it is
sent with half the effort dull tool
requires.

HONOR MEMORY OF FRANKLIN
University Of Pennsylvania VIII Erect
Heroic Statue Of Its Great
Founder.

\ The memory of Benjamin Franklin,
founder in 1740 Of the University Of
Pennsylvania, is to be honored by the
erection of a bronze statue at cost
Of $4,000, on the tenth anniversary Of
the class Of 1904, college, in June.
1914. The statue will be placed in
front of the gymnasium on Thirty-third
street, near Spruce. The statue will
be of heroic proportions, and will rep
resent Franklin as he first appeared
in Philadelphia as a runaway printers
apprentice. 1t has been modelled by
DR.. R. TAFT Mckenzie, professor OF
physical education, who has modelled
several medallions for the university
and figures Of athletes which have at.
tained celebrity for their life-like pos.
lures. The base Of the statue has
been designed by Prof. Henry Cret Of
the architectural school.

HAIR CUT By A SQUIRREL

Of Sleeping Oregon Pho

Ernest ]. Bloom, a photographer
of Hood River. Ore, who has been
passing the last two weeks at the
ranch Of R. e. Scott, secretary of the
Commercial club. returned home with
portion of his hair gone.
Mr.. Bloom had been working in the
garden and making a lawn on the
ranch. He was taking a nap after
lunch when squirrel that had been
making its home in the house last
winter, evidently thinking his long
black locks would make an excellent
lining for nest, trimmed OF por-
ton of the hair while he slept.
"The rodents teeth must have been
sharp" says the photographer. "for I
could scarcely feel him at work there

moved in my sleep and in his excite

hairs out instead of cutting them.

purpose, and clinching the projecting
ends. In fastening these sticks be
careful to set sticks B at right angles

After fastening these sticks togeth-

to that shown in Fig. 2, lay them aside

this a lightweight muslin or tough pa

it coat of varnish to fill up the

Then measure the proper length for
the diagonal braces G Gig. 81. These
sticks should be notched at their ends
to fit over the sticks A, as shown in
Fig. 4, and they should be trifle long
so they will be slightly bow-shaped
when put in place. In this way the
frames will keep the cloth or paper
bands stretched tight. The notched
ends of the diagonals should be lash.
ed with thread to keep them from
splitting. Lashings Of thread around
the frame sticks A, as shown in Figs.
2 and 4, will keep the ends of the
braces from slipping away from the
uprights B, which is the proper posi-.
ton for them. Bind the braces to-.

thread, as shown in Fig. 1. The
cloth or paper bands should be fas.

of the bands. This can be done to
best advantage with the diagonal
braces removed.

the bride is to slip the loop end
through a fancy-work ring, loop 1t

to sticks A of the. framework. The
vertical distance between the ring and
the kite should be about feet. Three

kite bride are used, but the two-point
method Is generally considered the
most satisfactory, and is most com

A Cold Frame for Fall.

1t is really remarkable what results
can be had in the garden long after
the frost comes, by the use Of prop
erly built cold frame. The most satis-
factory frame we have used Is made in
sections. three by six feet-the num-
ber of sections to be used depending
on how much space you want to de-
vote to late plants.
The cold frame is nothing more
than four boards nailed together to
make the sides, and it should slope
slightly toward the south. This is
then covered with. sash, made of light
wood, covered with cloth. Water
proof material may be gotten for this
latter from most of the large seed
stores, and is preferable on account
Of its durability.
Success with cold frames in the fall
depends on getting your plant we'll
started before the frosts come. A
good plan is to build your frame work.
and good size would be six by twelve
feet. This would require four cloth
frames to cover it, and the total ex-
pense should not exceed five dollars
for materials. Inside this inclosure
can be planted any late summer vege-
tables that you want to raise. If the
sun is particularly hot, put the cover
frames on during the middle Of the
day, but otherwise just give the plants
the same attention you would If
planted in the spring.
When danger of frost Is at hand,
put the cover frames on every night,
taking them off in the morning, but
when the weather gets still colder.
leave these cover frames on all the
time. You will be surprised at the
excellent crop Of late vegetables you
will have when all your neighbors'
gardens are desolate.
If you want to have vegetables all
through the winter. you must replace
the cloth frames with glass about No
vember 1. and by this means some of
the harder plants, like radishes, beets,
string beans and onions, can be had
practically all winter. though it will
probably be we'll for winter use to
bank your frame all around with fresh
horse manure, which would turn your
cold frame into hot frame.
Among the flowers, violets, pansies,
English daisies and primroses all will
grow we'll during the winter in a cold
frame covered with glass.

of his time sharpening his tools as do
duces nearly twice as much finished
product thereby. The same principle
applies to the use of garden tools.
Keep them sharp and in good working
order.
A fiat, fine file is mighty handy to
have about. With 1t you can sharpen
your hoe. spade, trowel. eulttvator
teeth, grass shears and lawn mower.
The file will make an ideal cutting
edge on these tools and this edge
should have perfectly fiat bevel. at
an angle of about As degrees. Hold
tfr tool firmly and use a little ma
chine oil to help the file cut the steel.
OF course, edged tools, like the
sickle, scythe, and pruning shears.
have to be ground on a grindstone or
emery stone, and then resharpened
from time to time with a milestone.
The bevel Of the edge must be as
acute as possible on this class of
tools
The best tool for spading up soil is
not the spade, but the spading fork.
1t penetrates the soil much easier and
pulverizes it more in turning over.
II the spade is preferred. 1t should
have as fiat a blade as possible. to
prevent clogging
The hoe Is the most useful tool In
the small garden and it should have
a large and heavy blade. The addi-
tional width will do more work with
the same number Of strokes and the
heavy head does more effective work
because Of its added momentum.
A rake Is Of rather small importance
after the seed is once planted, but 1t
is an excellent and practically in
dispensable implement for leveling and
pulverizing the seed bed. Use cast
iron rake Of the narrow type. The
wide ones are too hard to handle.
For the larger garden, a hand cul-
tivator or. wheel hoe is fine and a
great time and muscle saver. With 1t
the entire garden can be hoed easily
in the same length of time one takes
to hoe tenth of it by hand. We pre-
fer the single, high wheeled type,
which runs between the rows, as 1t
will work close enough and pushes
easier. Work it with the cultivator
teeth early in the season to loosen
the soil and force the roots to grow
deeply. changing to the weed cutting.
blades later on. 1t is
real pleasure to cultivate the garden
with one Of these machines and they
cost only couple Of dollars.

A BOX KITE.

OF the more pretentious kites. none
Is more popular than the rectangular
box-kite. 1t approaches nearest to the
form Of the biplane aeroplane of any
kite yet devised. and is one Of the
steadiest Of fliers.
Box-kites can be purchased ready
made in q number Of sizes, but they
are not cheap, and 1T will pay any boy
to take the time necessary to make
one. While their construction requires
considerable more work than the mon
oplane form of kite, 1t is not difficult,
and is SO interesting that no boy can
fail to enjoy it.
The illustrations show a kite Of
scientifically developed proportions.
Pine, spruce and whitewood are the
best materials for making these kites.
though any strong. lightweight wood
OF straight grain may be used If
easier to obtain. The horizontal
sticks and braces must be cut straight
and Of uniform thickness, as in the
making of any kite. II you live near
a lumber yard or planning mill, pos
sibly you can get strips Of Just the
size you require from the waste pile
for the mere asking, or for few
cents get them ripped out of board.
II not, you will find it an easy enough
matter to cut them yourself, with a
sharp rip.saw. Short kite sticks can

MEMORY IMPROVED.
Since Leaving Of Coffee.

Many persons suffer from poor
memory who never suspect coffee has
anything to do with 1t.
The drug-caffeine- coffee, acts
inturiously on the nerves and heart,
causing imperfect circulation, too
much blood in the brain at one time,
too little in another part. This often
causes dullness which makes a good
memory nearly impossible.
Il am nearly seventy years old and
did not know that coffee was the
cause of the stomach and heart trou.

until about four years ago." writes .
Kansas woman.
"A kind neighbor induced me to
quit coffee and try Postum. I had
been suffering severely and was
greatly reduced in flesh. After using
Postum a little while I found myself
improving. My heart beats became
regular and now seldom ever no

better than while I was using coffee.
