LAWN MUST HAVE sHRUBBERY
Selection Is Wide One, But Some
Sort There Must Be to Produce
Desired Good Effect.

Well placed shubbery is to the
home lawn as leaves are to tree.

determine the kind Of shrubbery to
be planted, and where. The common
est kinds are: Snowfall. bush honey

plant shrubs gathered in the woods.
plant the best that can be had from
the local nursery. This applies to any
plant
Shrubs should be planted iE either
spring or fall. preferably in spring,
when there is no growth The soil
should be medium, rich, well drained,
relatively deep and well prepared be-
fore planting the perennials. They
should be planted just deep enough to
cover the roots. which must be in con-
tact with the soil particles. Tramp
the ground down solidly around the
plant Do not plant when the soil is
sticky.
The amount of pEuning on shrub
berry is small, for the best effect is
obtained when it is allowed to take its
natural growth. All dead and dying
parts should be cut out. The larger
kinds Of plants may be pruned to get
symmetry. And superfuous suckers
should be eliminated.
To maintain a healthy shrub some
form OF soil enrichers must be put
around the plant each fall and spring
If the plant is a tender one the stalk
may be wrapped in heavy paper or
straw to keep it from freezing. UNI

Washington, D. c., Sept. 3.-Prog-

the outcome Of the election in Maine
next Monday. The fight which is be-
ing waged In the old Blaine Dingley
district, is one OF the hottest in
political history. Practically every
body admits that the bull moose can
didate will run second II he doesn't
run first. The republican and demo-
cratic generals are counting on every
thing to win, but chiefly the weather.
Three Of the counties lie along the
coast and most all of the voters in
them are fishermen. AS rule these
fishermen are democrats, but whether
free fish will affect their views or not
remains to be seen II it Is q clear
day or q day even reasonably good
for hauls, very few of them will re-
main on shore, even to vote. Right
now the democrats don't know which
they want-clear or foul weather. But
they do want the votes.
