~AEROPLANE IN WAR.

More than two years ago military
experts seemed to agree that the aero
planes use in war would be confined
principally to scouting and messenger
service. AS a weapon of ~offense, it
was declared, the aeroplane could not
be employed with success. Since that
time the ~aeroplane has been used in
two wars. 1t was employed by the
Italians against the Turks and their
allies in North Africa and was used
more extensively in the Balkan war.
On several OCCASIONS the ]aeroplane
also has been employed in minor am
paigns incident to the revolution in
Mexico. In none of these operations
has experience demonstrated that
army experts were far wrong in re-
war. In several instances, particular
ly in the Balkan campaigns. ~aviators
proved of value in helping to locate
the position of opposing troops. In at
least n instance an %aeroplane was
used similarly to good purpose by the
Italian troops in Tripoli.
The fact that d bomb was landed
from an aerOplane on the deck of the
cruiser South Dakota makes interest
ing newspaper talk, but it proves
nothing. At least, it does not prove
that in war such a feat would be pos
sible. Dropping bags of sand upon
vessels or fortified places that do not
hght back is quite different from at
tempting offensive operations in time
o. war. The art of defense, ever
against these marvellous heavier-than-
air flying machines, seems to keep pace
with the advance in methods of attack.

TO DARKEN HAIR
APPLY SAGE TEA
A FEW APPLICATIONS OF SAGE
TEA AND SULPHUR BRING

Common garden sage prewed into a
heavy tea with sulphur and alcohol
added, will turn gray, streaked and
faded hair beautifully dark and luxuri-
ant, remove every bit of dandruff, stop
scalp itching and falling hair. Just a
few applications will prove a revela-
ton if your hair is fading, gray or
dry, scraggly n thin. Mixing the
Sage Tea and Sulphur recipe at home,
though, is troublesome. An easier way
is to get the re~ady-to-use tonic, cost
ing about so cents a large bottle at
drug stores, known as "Wyeth's Sage
and Sulphur Hair Remedy" thus
avoiding a lot Of muss.
While wispy, gra faded hair is not
sinful, we all desire to retain our
youthful appearance and attractive
ness. By darkening your hair with
Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur, no one
can tell, because it does it so natural
ly, SO evenly. You just dampen a
sponge or soft brush with it and draw
this through your hair, taking one
small strand at a time; by morning
all gray hairs has disappeared, and,
after another application or two, your
hair becomes beautifully dark, glossy,
soft and luXuriant.-Advt.

Dwarf Tomatoes.

Tomatoes are one of, If not the
most, popular summer vegetables.
This worldwide favorite is of com
paratively recent use as an edible. 1t
was originally cultivated for its deco
rative features only, the fruit being
called Love Apples" and people con-
sidering them to be poisonous. This
singular error was probably due to
the fact that tomatoes belong to the
"Nightshade" family, several of whose
members are deadly poison to human
beings.
The popularity of tomatoes is due
largely to the great variety Of ways in
which they can be prepared for the
table. No other vegetable can be eat
en- raw or cooked in such variety OF
forms. No other vegetable has wider
range of growth, is easier to grow,
or produces more from the land.
Tomatoes were originally divided
into the tree and bush classes, after
their manner of growth. About so
years ago a French market gardener
noticed a sturdy low-growing tomato
bush in a field Of ordinary vines. We
say bush advisedly, because it had a
short, strong stalk and stood right up,
holding its branches and fruit off the
ground
From his original plant sport" has
been developed q great variety OF
dwarf tomatoes. This peculiar occur
renee has never re-occurred, and II

laYinu Out Flower Beds.


Why do people plant flowers in
beds? Everyone does it, and there is
hardly one in a hundred that knows
why they plant them in beds instead
of singly and scattered or some other
way. They do it because everybody
else does it.
Planting flowers is a good deal like
growing whislIers in some ways. Right
after the Civil war every man grew
a full beard because so many Of the
returning heroes had boards through
necessity that they made whiskers
fashionable.
That's why we plant flowers in beds.
does. But fortunately there are mighty
good underlying reasons for so doing,
whether we understand them or not.
IN the first place. the herbaceous or
soft stemmed plants usually look bet
ter in masses, lines or other groups. A
large or continuous mass of color
makes a strong impression upon the OBJ
server where a few scattered blooms
would be ignored. A single soldier is
unnoticed but the marching of reg
iment thrills the very soul. So 1t is
with flowers, and this cumulative eff
feet is the biggest reason for massing
them together.
Perhaps the only other immediate al
tentative would be to scatter them
about over the lawn as they occur in
nature-a group of blue here, a single
pink there, etc. This is all very we'll
for the yard that is kept in a wild
state, but it will never do for the fin
ished city or suburban lot. 1t makes
a fair, smooth lawn impossible and
the combination of natural flower ar
rangements and polished gardening &C
cessorieS spoils the effect of each one
AS far as possible, the beds should
be kept at the outer edges of the lawn
to avoid cutting it up and making it
look small. The old-fashioned, formal
beds-round, square, star-shaped, dia-
mond or crescent-are not in good
taste now, and the lines Of the beds
should be irregular, although clearly
defined. This applies to every walk
borders, to a lesser degree, although
we personally like straight lined bed
near a straight lined walk.
If it is necessary to place small beds
out in the lawn, the round or oval bed
is probably the best in form and it
should contain low flowers, SO as not
to hide the landscape back Of it.
Beds should be dug deep, thorough
ly fortified and pulverized, and the
edges cut clean and smooth with an
edging tool. The earth should be gen
tly crowned from the edges to the CEN
ter, to provide drainage. Do not plant
the flowers so close to the grass as to
interfere with clipping the grass at
the edge of the lawn about the bed.

Great Value Of Aluminium.

The conductivity of aluminium is
about so per cent. of that Of annealed
copper. Accordingly, an aluminium
conductor must be considerably larger
In cross sectional area than copper

wire is always coated with thin oxide
which serves as an insulator. This
insulation Is enough, according to
some European manufacturers, to per-
nit of using bare aluminium wire In
the coils of magnets. AS the oxide
film is of inappreciable thickness. a
coil of the wire thus constructed
would be no bulkier, If as bulky, as a
coil wound with insulated copper
wire. H. F. Stratton, writing on this
subject in the Electrical World, states
that he has been unable to secure suf-
f1cient insulation when depending
upon the aluminium oxide film as it
naturally occurs In the commercial
product In order to increase this OK
ide, some European manufacturers

POISONOUS TREE Is DREADED
BY AFRICAN NATIVES.
Its Sap Deadly to Humanity, and Peo'
pie of the Country Take Precau-
tions When They Seek Shell
ter Beneath IL.

Everywhere the manchineel bears
the reputation of being a most dam
gerous tree, in the shade whereof it
is never safe to rest. This evil repu-
tation has it's origin in the poisonous
qualities of the sap and fruit of q
tree of this kind found in Africa-the
arborescent euphorbia. This tree has
a magnificent but most peculiar APP
pearance, and the thickness of its TO-
liage, which wholly excludes the sun,
seems to invite the traveller to rest
beneath it's branches. The negroes
have way of taking advantage OF
the delightfully."- cool shade, and at the
same time avoiding the danger from
the poisonous droppings Of the tree.
They erect a matched roof below the
lowest branches, and then repose in
peace and security.
Tremaux, the French explorer, has
perhaps given the best account OF
these aborescent euphorbias. While
taking a view of Cacane, he asked
one of his negroes who stood near
him to seat himself under a great
euphorbia that stood in the fore
ground. At first the native hesitated:

times in apprehension toward the
branches of the tree.
The Frenchman was about to climb
upon a rock to break off a branch,
but the negro seeing him approach

deadly tree, gesticulating wildly and
giving utterance to terms the foreign
er could not understand. The mans
gestures, however, and few Arabic
words uttered by one of the bystand'
ers, do you mean to die?" made the
explorer understand that in touching
the tree he was running a serious
risk
But the thing was done, and the

flowed forth, in much greater quantity
than he could have imagined from
what he knew of these plants in other
countries, covering his clothes and
The features and gestures of the
negroes expressed their fear. They
made the traveller understand that il
the white juice touched one of the
numerous wounds which he at that
time had on his body he would die,

the African tribes poison their weap-

Rich Land Owned by Indians.

Land which was absolutely forced
on the Snake Indians in the Creek
country, Oklahoma, is proving the
source of inestimable riches, owing to
the discoveries in that section by oil
prospectors. So far not a dry hole
has been found in this marvellous field,
and on the land OF the Snakes are
scores OF rigs engaged in drilling.
About nine years ago the government
decided to allot arbitrarily to the
Snakes. All the good land was gone.
and they gave them allotments in
section OF the Creek nation where the
land was considered worthless. The
federal government set aside 100 acres
for each Snake, the land being classi-
fed at 81 an acre. Since oil was struck
the rights OF the Indians have been
carefully guarded by the department
or the interior.

this humble gardener had not pre-,

ness, so far as the large grower is
concerned. We have long been famil-
lar with tomatoes which are dwarf as
to the size of the fruit and they need
not be considered seriously.
The new dwarf has full-sized fruit
Of the very best quality, and while
each plant bears fewer tomatoes, the
dwarf will produce a great many
more tomatoes from given area
than will the larger bushes, because
1t spreads less and may be planted
closer together. Where the large
varieties will go about 1900 to the
acre, planted four feet apart, and will
yield about $50 bushels of good fruit,
the Giant Dwarf may be planted 215
by 31a feet apart, nearly 5000 plants
to the acre, and has frequently yield
ed 600 bushels.
Even if this were to be overlooked
entirely, the fact that the dwarf to-
mato plant does not have to be tied
or staked up, makes it much better
for both the small garden and the
market garden. The fruit is naturally
kept off the ground and ripens with
out rotting in the attempt. Handle
them just as you have handled the
large varieties and plant them closer
together and forget about the stakes.
The Giant Dwarf is the most COM
mon dwarf variety in this country
and we advise you to try few plants
this year or next. Thorough cultiva-
ton is necessary, as with any other
tomato, and you must break up the
surface after every rain. Another ex-
cellent forcing plan is to sink a bot
tomless tin can in the ground by each
plant and pour liquid fertilizer, or
even plain water, into it twice weekly.
