County Treasurer culverwelI received
a check from Clark county this week
for the sum of s5.5O7o5 and sent Lin
coin county's check to the treasurer of
ClarE county for s4,44O.70.
Thus the differences which have ex-
istei between the counties since coun-
tv DIVISION little over four years ago,
have beenSamicably adjusted.
The Clark county officials have also
slgnified their willingness to join with
Lincoln county in bringing suit against
the state, to recover the monies sent
to the state treasurer enormously sew
eral years ago and which the state has
refused to refund to the county, al
though there is a law on the statute
books authorizing the refund.

After periodical pilgrimages ex-
tending over Is years to the cemetery
at Beeaton, j. Daniels OF Nottingham
was informed by the local urban coun-
Gil, under whose control it is, that
during all this time he has been
visiting and placing flowers on the
wrong grave. The blunder, they said,
was due to former sexton getting
the numbers of the graves mixed In
entering them in his book London

Conditions Found
In Hawaiian Islands

der the impression that the Hawaiians
were anxious TO be annexed. but the
contrary is true They feel to this day
that they were robbed of their king
dom ana that Queen Lii was robbed
of all her crown lands. The crown land
as she claimed. really took all the
best land in the islands. The Ameri-
cans of the Islands wanted annexation
and since they really owned thd wealth
of the islands, succeeded in getting
the bill passed. The territory, howev-
cr. pays Queen lii $4,000 per year
while she lives.

FRONT YARD PLANNING.
When Space Is Small Great Care Must
Be Used.

When Space Is Small Great Care Must
Be Used.
On a lot Of fifty feet the house is
usually within twenty feet Of the side
walk. Small grounds like this should
never have shrubs dotted over them or
be cut up with beds, as this makes the
front yard look cluttered.
All planting. unless it be Of trees,
should be close to the house in a way
to the underpinning as much as
possible or on the line between lots.
Shrubs in the background, with hardy
~herbaceous plants, bedding plants and
ANNALS in front, are most desirable.
If you use more than one color, avoid
those that clash, such as several
shades of red. Use enough white to
bring out the mixture.
The massing of several plants of one
color is most effective. If you use yell
low have the plants dwarf and in the
front. If blue enters into your plant
ing that should be at the farthest point
Avoid straight lines as far as possible.
Graceful curves give much more natu-
raj effect and a better perspective.

STREET TREE PRu.uNG.
A Few Hints For This Important Part
of Maintenance Work.

The work Of pruning should be be-
gun at the top of the tree and com
pleted at the bottom. In this way the
desired form can be better secured,
and there is less danger Of accident.
The men employed should be careful
not to do more damage by breaking
and bruising thar they do good by
pruning. A rope properly adjusted
about the waist and fastened to a
stout limb above the workman is an
excellent means of sustaining the prin-
cipal weight Of the body while moving
about through the tree. The form and
direction of the cut when removing
branches depend upon the position of
the branch on the tree and upon
whether it is to be simply shortened
or entirely removed.
Erect branches are shortened by cut
ting them at an angle, thus preventing
the undue entrance Of water, while
side branches are cut perpendicularly
for the same reason.

A Shade Tree Census.

The shade tree committee of the city
of Philadelphia has submitted a report
to the Paramount park commission
compiled from 1902 cards, giving a
censu Of trees IN about 1000 miles Of
sidewalk and describing 116,161 speci-
mems. OF these $4,000 are standing
unprotected by any guards and are liza
BILE to be injured, while thousands of
others are strangled by guards that
they have outgrown. Many trees have
died owing to improper planting and
lack of care. An appropriation of $780,
900 is asked for, or about 40 cents per
existing tree. The cost Of pruning and
cleaning has averaged 90 cents and
spraying 20 cents. Country Gentle
