FLORAL FIGURES.

The mOnStrOSltleS III bedding pants
made to represent flags, calendars, globes
maps. human figures and to spell names
have no place in this or any other style
of gardening. Some time ago the writer
learned that it had been proposed by
some one to place bedding plants on the
slope of the terrace on Frazer Field, so as
to spell "Dclaware College. TO do so
would place the College in the same cat
cgory with Carriers Lite Liver Pills, Be
mans Pepsin Chewing Gum, Burrows
Rustess Screens and other signs which dis
figure the landscape. There could be no
better method devised to advertise to the
world at large lack of good taste.
The same objections apply to the tri-
vial little beds of coleuses, geranums,
., which one sees so often in door
yards and parks. These can no more rep
resent fine art than can the omnipresent
turkey buzzard resemble the naughty
eagle The bad taste displayed in making
such eccentrictes is largely accountable
for the disrepute into which the formal
style of gardening has fallen. Yet many
will say 1t may be that these things
are not art but | like them. TO such
we can only reply AS did Ruskin to the

Formal gardening is transient and as
such it addresses itself to those faculties
which delight in colors of bright hued
bedding plans, and in the beauty Of form
that is found in gcometrical bells and
clipped trees, clements which must hC
changed every year. Formal gardens can
have but few of the pleasant associations
that cluster around the elements Of per-
manent naturalistic garden.
FORMAL GARDENING ABOUT HOMES.
When grounds about homes are small.
fomal gardening in some of its phases is
often more suitable than the naturalistic.
If the latter be attempted where there
is not room for a generous landscape pic
ture there is apt to be lack of char
acter about the grounds and instead of a
picture we have a conglomeration of trees
and showy shrubs that make no artistic
impression whatever For such grounds

There are two well recognized styles or
ln,ndscapc gardening in use at the pre-
e It time. These are the architectural
and the natural. a third style once
much in vogue, but now seldom useh, ~
the Italian. Followers of the first two
Styles have in the past recognized each
other only for the purpose of abuse
However, the fact that there is Il Piar"
for both and that they may often times
he iudciously combined is now rccog-
uizcd by most landscape gardeners.
The architectural style is often termed
formal gardening. Formal gardening is
that style of gardening which agrees with
architectural lines and derives its mater
ias from gcomctric beds of flowers,
straight and precise avenues and walks,
rlipped trees and shrubs, statuary, orn-
amcntaI fountains, stone or cement haIUs-
trades, and ornaments of hrorze work.
In America this style of gardening /"
most largely concerned with the adOrn-
mcnt of small places, such as city squares,
parks about railway stations and public
buildings and city homes. 1t harmon
ICES only with the straight lines of streets,
tail and massive buildings, with the sym
ctrica features of fine architecture and
in general where there is great formality
in all neighboring things
The formal style is in good taste, how
ever, only when the outlines of the park
are simple enough to be agreeable to the
eve, and when the colors are low keyed
and in perfect harmony, and when the
appropriateness of the style is percepti-
bic. In general this style is distinctly
ont of place amid rural surroundings. The
setting must be appropriate or the design,
no matter how beautiful in detail be
comes a monstrosity.

Fire in the Thomas Block

Just before noon last Monday, fire broke out in the upper story of the Thomas building at the'corner of Third and D streets and before it could be conuuered several thousand dollars in damage had resulted. pr. Mathis, deutist, was using gasoline torch, when the dangerous gas exploded, throwing fire in all directions. A small hand extinguisher was quickly brought but before it could be emptied the heat and flames drove everyone from the upper part of the building. Hose com panies No. l, ? and 3 responded to the alarm. Two streams at the front Of the building and the Front street chemical at the rear were effective, and by 12 o'clock the fire was out.
 During the fire Luther Chambers, who was caught between bases, appear ed at one of the windows clad in pair of trousers and look of fastonishment. He succeeded in reaching the street in safety. Luther had delayed. to rescue Mathis dog, which led him mad chase before he captured it and threw it out of a window.
 Doctor Mathis lost his dental tools and equipment and his household goods were seriously damaged. H. E. Chambers furniture was badly scorch- ed, carpets and curtains drenched with water, but the loss be regrets the most was the pictures on the wall, family relics. which money will not replace.
 MT. Smiths Rexall Drug store on the first floor suffered no loss from fire, but considerable from the torrents of water that came down from the ceiling.
 The heaviest loser is Mr. Thomas, owner of the building, in which all of the upper part will have to be retinish- ed. The entire building is encased in iron, and the only damage to the ex- terior was the stain of smoke coming from the windows.

Waxed Juneau Again

The Douglas ball team went over to Juneau again last Sunday afternoon and did it to the Juneau boys to the tune of 13 to 3. Johnson, the new pitcher of U. of W. fame, had the Ju- neau batsmen at his mercy, which he exercised by allowing but three hits. His support was first class, only two errors being charged up.
 Dennis Malloy was again iu the box for Juneau and pitched his usual game, but his support was poor. And all the blame is laid on the shoulders of Den- his, who will henceforth be known only as the "Juueau Goat"
 The game was too much one-sided to be thrilling. Douglas rooters gave hearty applause to Juneau players, whether they deserved it or not. Dolly Gray, the Juneau old guardsman, work ed real hard marking out the side lines and was allowed to play during one in- hing. Dolly never sleeps during a game.
 Douglas has won three of the four games played, and unless Juneau takes a brace she will win the other six.

there. The object of the organization
IS:
First: To work for an effective

plans in operation in Europe, and
also for an asset currency direct

country the farmer, on an average
pays sixty per cent more interest
than the spCculator, ana fifty per
cent more than the business man
while in Germany the farmer pays
the lowest rate of interest.
The second distinct purpose Of
this organization is to furnish a
plan whereby the farmers can mar
ket their products direct to the con-
sumer. the retailer, the mill and the
factory, and plans have been work
ed out through which this market
ing process can and will be accom-
plished.
This organization differs from 9th
er forms of organization in that it
has a state organization, with means
ana methods through which it can
accomplish the purpose
of the association.
This organization is secret non

tion, yet through its information

present. This organization VIII strive
