PLANTING Shrubs.

Spring is the favorite season for
shrub planting. Not that most shrubs
cannot be transplanted at almost any
season of the year, but we all feel
more interested in outdoor things
when the robins first come back.
Shrubbery about the house is a con-
slant JOY to all who behold it. Break
ing up harsh lines and joining to-
gether the more antagonistic features,
it gives a finish and an air of per-
manency to any place.
In choosing varieties for special
uses, particular attention should be
given to the form, color and charac-
ter of blossoms, and foliage, together
with blooming period and general ap-
pearance of the shrub. Tall, struggling
shrubs, like some of the lilacs and
azaleas, give better effects when
placed at a distance, and either mass
ed or planted against buildings, fences,
etc. More symmetrical shrubs and
the smaller varieties can be planted
singly or grouped in beds in the fore
ground.
For planting about porches, moth
ing is more handsome or more grace
full than bridal wreath. 1t can well
be supplanted with several other
shrubs which bloom at different times.

with any of the larger symmetrical
shrubs.

others are frequently used for lower
and less compact hedges, road bor-

Where it is desired to conceal
buildings, nothing is better than lilacs,

Raising RaSpberrieS.

There is no fruit more desirable OF

A raspberry patch will bear some
fruit the second year and it will carry
a heavy crop thereafter, for as much
as ten years.

When the bushes are properly
pruned and fertilized, it will not be
necessary to support them, but there
are many advantages in tying the
canes up to wire supports.
Be careful in the pruning. After
the first year cut all Of the old canes
out as soon as they have fruited. AT
the same time cut out surplus and
feeble canes. In the early spring cut
out all canes which have been winter
killed and trim all remaining stalks
about a third.

OYSTER MEAT A-PLENTY.
Must be Put in Cans Department Of
Agriculture Makes First Move in
Establishing Food Standards

What apparently is a preliminary
move in the establishment of food
standards is an order of the Depart
ment of Agriculture to oyster packers
from Louisiana to Maryland.
1t is to the effect that each can of
canned oysters must contain certain
proportion of oyster meat in addition
to the oy ster liquor. At a hearing
of the oyster men held last October it
was decided what amount of oyster
meat should 20 into each class of can.
Trials made by the bureau of chem
istry show that the weight of solid
meat has been running from 10 to Is
per cent under this standard. There
is as yet no law governing food
standards and manufacturers who
want can save in the aggregate a
large amount of money by filling
cans with water instead of the canned
goods they are supposed to contain.
The amount of solid matter in a
can is determined by emptying the
conte nts on wire screen of certain
mesh aud weighing the solids after
it has drained a given time. In this
way oysters and canned vegetables
can easily be checked If the can
ners do not come into camp and fur
nish the amount of solids in a can
that they have verbally agre ed to
put in, then an effort will be made
to have food standard established
by law.

ACT EXTRAORDINARY.
Equinine Wonders at the Colonial
Tonight.

Manager Irons has, at great ex-
pense, secured Bristol's Pony Circus
for his patrons entertainment. The
best is none too good for the patrons
of the Colonial &c this act is one of
the biggest as well as the most ex-
peusive pony acts on the road today.
In addition to this wonderful act,
there will be another vaudeville offer
ing and four splendid photoplays, max
ing il one Of the biggest programs
YOU have ever had the pleasure of
seeing in Annapolis at the low price
of admission. The manage ment takes
quite a chance in bringing in such
an expensive act, yet it is the firm
belief that there are enough Colonial
posters TO justify it.
The patrons may rest assured that
if they will give their support the big
programs will be forthcoming, and
mighty big ones, too. Professor
Bristol carries the largest aad best
trained pony circus in vaudeville and
YOU will think il is a real circus that
has broken loose when yod see the
beauties on the street on their way
from the livery barn to play house.
There are twelve ponies, trick
mule and an educated horse, troupe
of equine actors that would cost
thousands to buy. These little fellows
like their work and are impatient to
appear before the footlights just like
any actor and how they do perform
when it comes their turn. In one
town one of them united himself in
some mysterious manner and trotted
out on the stage and started to do
Stunts while another act was
VIC rking. He que cred the other act
before the stage hands could get him
off, but he made big hit with the
audience and seemed TO appreciate
the fact.
Since that time one of Bristol's
men always watch him until time for
the pony act to go on. The trick
mule gets lot of fun out OF her rock
ING chair stunt. She actually sits in
rocking chair and rocks away for
dear lie. The contortion horse will
prove an innovati IN. The other act

CARLYLE BLACKWELL.
In a Spectacular TwO-Reel Drama at
the Palace Tonight.

"The Invaders" is an adaptati IN of
John Lloyd's famous novel dealing
with one of the most Sc sensational incl
dents in the history of the West.
"The sRustler War" which was
fought in "The Hole-in-the Wall"
country, Wyoming in 1892, forms the
basis of the play. At that time the
large cattle interests became hostile
toward the homesteaders whom they
held responsible for the many cattle
stealing outrages.
Scores of desperate gun men from
Texas were engaged to drive the
small dealers from the plains and a
series of lawless acts took place. The
dauntless spirit which characterized
the Western settlers enabled The m to
overcome the cowardly attack with
the assistance of the Government
troops. None of the dramatic fea-
lures in the novel has been overlook
ed in making the photoplay adapta-
ton and a powerful heart interest
story is made a part of the vivid
portrayal of western life.
Then one of those absorbing Bio
graph dramas, 1.-The Strong Mans
Burden . Full of tense thrilling sit
uations. John Bunny and Flora Finch
will comp lete the program in Que of
their funniest of comedies, THE
Pickpocket. It's funny, but Mrs.
Mcclure does not think so. She picks
her husbands pocket, in perfectly
legi innate way, it is true, and also
takes his theatre tickets when he is
not there.
Hubby knows where the tickets
are, right enough, but let's on that
he thinks a pickpocket has taken
them when III was on his waylto the
theatre. Leaving orders for the ar
rest of the holder of the stolen tick
cts, Hubby buys some more and has
jolly evening. WHEY spends her
time in the lookup and is thoroughly
repentant by the time hubby happens
along.
Before he gets the police to re-
lease her, he gets back the money
she had taken from him in the after
noon and eAacts a promise that she
will leave the ranks of the suffra-
gettes, of which she has been an en-
thusiastic member.

TEST OF SEA DEVICE.
Intended to Show Position Of Ship al
All Times.

Experts on navigation throughout
the country are watching with interest
the trip of the Oceanic Steamship
Company steamer Sonoma, which
left San Francisco September % for
one of her regular trips to Sydney,
Australia. The SOnoma is equipped
with Capt. X. T. Lawless' latest
model of a ship navigator, which is
undergoing a practical test.
g. e.. Reiniger, a former misdhip-
man of the class of 1913 and known
in Washington, is conducting the test
for Capt. Lawless. and by reason of
preliminary tests he has made feels
certain that he can demonstrate the
value of the instrument.
The invention records at all times
the latitude an longitude of a moving
ship and acts as a check on the officers
calculations due to ignorance of a
ships position.
Just at this time, when all mari
time nations are endeavoring to make
ocean travels safer, Capt Lawless, it
is said has a splendid opportunity to
interest mariners in his project, al
though they may be prejudieed owing
to recent failures of inventions intend
ed for this class of work Yacht
owners of New York and San Francisco
have already made bids for models Of
the instrument.

MAY EXTEND CIVIL SERVICE.
President FaYors Placing Second and
Third Class Postmasters Under
Rules, it is Said.

Confronted by criticism aroused by
the exemption of the income tax
clerkships and the deputy collector
ship of internal revenue from the
operation of the civil service law the
Wilson Administration is preparing
for move which will effectively clar-
it's attitude toward civil service
reform.
Postmaster-General BurlesOn has
decided to favor the covering of all
second and third class postmasters
under the civil service. He is assur-
ed of the support of President Wilson
for this policy.
The question that is engaging the
attention of the Postmaster-General
now is whether the classification CT
these offices can be effected simply
through an executive order by the
President. MIR. Burleson's legal ad.
visers are inclined to the opinion that
action by Congress will be necessary
to accomplish the reform.
Nearly 5000 postmasterships
carrying salaries aggregating Sl3,
600, 0O0, will he snatched from the
hands of political spoilsmen by this
action and landed permanently under
the operation of the merit system.
The classification of these Offices
probably would be the most important
extension of the civil service made
since the law was enacted.
The administration adoption OF
this policy is expected to be declared
either in Postmaster-Genera raj Burle
sons annual report to Congress, to
be transmitted by the President, OF
in the next annual message Of the
President himself.
Before this declaration is made,
the legal point involving the power
of the President to make the change
without authorization from Congress
will be passed OH by the Attorney
General, and decision reached as tc
whether or not the President neec
seek legislation by Congress.
