MUST RESTRAIN HIS GRIEF
Everybody Except the Clergyman Is
Privileged to Weep During
Wedding Ceremonies.

A regularity of bridegrooms was
pointed out by the curate, who asked
automatically for a medical certifi-
cate showing that he had a cold in the
head.
But that is self-evident," said the
doctor. You don't need a doctors
word for that. You are all choked up
and your eyes are watery."
1T is those very symptoms that
make certificate necessary to placate
the bridegroom" said the curate.
Without that, he will think l am cry
ing, and will take my tears as a per
sonal insult. Copious weeping is the
privilege of everybody at a wedding
except the parson.
bridesmaids may sniffle, mothers
sob, and bride and bridegroom falter,
but the man who ties the knot must
remain dry-eyed and clear-voiced.
Emotion on his part is construed as
grief over the brides bad bargain,
and the best-natured bridegroom on
earth resents it."

First Floor Plan.

are four inches square, reinforced
with twisted steel rods. On top of
this concrete and terra-cotta floor, a
one-inch coat of cinder concrete is
laid on these strips, being nailed down
securely. For the ceiling finish, the
wall plaster is applied directly to the
underside of the concrete beams and
the tiles. This makes a floor that is
thoroughly fireproof, very warm, and
not excessively heavy.
The roof of this house may be con-
structed in a number of ways; yet it
should be made fireproof, since the
roof is really the most vulnerable part
Of the house. Green slate would be
very appropriate, and would make a
beautiful contrast with the cement
walls. The roof in this design is
rather prominent, and, all things con-
sidered, slate would probably be the
most satisfactory.
One Of the newer forms of roof CON
struction that might be used, consists
of corrugated steel sheets resting on
a light steel framework. The CORFU
cations are deep enough to prevent
any bending Of the sheets between
supports. Waterproofed cement plas-
ter Is spread over the sheets in a
coat about one inch thick. completely

Successful gardening depends on
early production. Cold-frame plants
are more certain to live than hot-bed
plants, and give large per cent of
good stuff than do the more tender
hot-bed plants.
In constructing such we use two
frames instead of one The larger
frame is 4h feet by TX feet and l
foot deep. The inner one is one foot
smaller each way and only eight in
ches deep.
The space around the inner frame,
six inches wide, is filled with dry saw
dust well packed down.
The covering for the inner frame is
a glass-covered sash made to fit quite
close to the frame to exclude air.
The outer frame is covered with an
oiled convassed frame so as to be
waterproof.
A strip Of carpet, or other good ma
terial, is kept over the inner sash in
severe weather.
We prefer shallow frames a Keep
the plants from growing spindling.
We choose a location free from cold
winds and where a good exposure to
the sun can be had. If it is a little
rolling so mucn the better.

What Indian Summer Ia

Indian summer is a name used to
describe a short season Of pleasant
weather in the Central and Atlantic
coast states. 1t usually comes either
in October or November There is no
definite time for Indian summer, but
as rule it comes after the first severe
frost or series Of frosts and storms.
1t is the season that is welcome be-
cause it comes after everyone has set
tied down to expect real winter, and
Indian summer always holds winter off
for a few more weeks. The season is
characterized by almost cloudless
skies, calm or light airs, hazy at
mosphere and mild temperature in the
daytime, but rather cool at night.

northeastern states. This is because
the fruit demands a cool climate and
loose, moist soil with an abundance
of humus. In a wild state both the
red and black varieties are found at
their best on newly cleared timber
lands of the eastern and central
states. Land from which timber has
been removed in the east is nearly
always first occupied by the raspber-
ry brambles. After the surface hui
mus becomes more or less exhausted
these bushes disappear.
The great drawback to raspberry
growing either in a wild or cultivated
state is the droughts that are apt to
occur at time of ripening
Propagation of the raspberry varies
according to which species it belongs.
The red raspberries are propagated
from the suckers which come up
from the parent root. AS a rule most
of the red varieties throw up enough
suckers to insure plenty Of young
plants. For this reason careful cul-
tivation has to be resorte$ to in or
der to avoid injuring the roo system
of the old plant. For when it is in
jured it acts only as a stimulant to
throw more shoots and often requires
a severe pruning to keep them down.
The old plant can be separated by
division thus obtaining extra plants
for planting purposes, but as a rule
this is not as good a plan as to use
the young shoots with the roots at
tached
The black raspberry is propagated
by the tip layerage. This is done by
covering the tips along the latter
part of July or the first of August
They take root at this point and gen.
orally establish themselves we'll
enough so that the next spring they
can be separated from the parent
stock by cutting the cane off near the
ground.
The purple cane varieties vary
somewhat in their mode of propaga-
tion according to the variety. The
most of them however resemble the
black-cap in this respect and are
prOpagated by tip layerage.

Q3y r. S. HERRICK and +. r. BEN
NETT. Colorado Agricultural College,
The raspberry is one of the best
known small fruits. In its wild state
1t has been used as food since the
beginning of history. This fruit be-
longs to the family of brambles of
which there are many hundred spe-
cies. The raspberries of commerce
are mostly included in three species,
These three species are divided be-
tween two quite distinct types, the
reds and blacks.
The European red raspberry, Rubus
ldaeus, is little grown in this country.
The fruit is similar to the American
red raspberry in appearance, of bet
ter quality, but the plants are less
hardy The early attempts at red
raspberry culture in this country were
largely confined to the development
of this species but these have never
succeeded because the species is not
adapted to our climatic conditions.
The American red raspberry, Rubus
strigosus, is Of comparatively recent
domestication. In the wild state it is
found more or less over the northern
and eastern United States. One va
riety of this species is native in the
higher attitudes of the Rocky noun
tains. This wild raspberry of the
mountains is far superior in quality to
the domesticated berry or to the wild
berry of the east. Up to the present
time, however, nothing has been done
TO improve or acclimate the berry to
cultivated conditions.
The black raspberry, Rubus occi-
dentalis, is also native to the north
ern and eastern United States. The
black raspberry of commerce is prac-
tically the same as the wild berries
OF the fields. This species is com
mercially the most important of the
raspberries.
Another species, Rubus neglectus, is
a hybrid of the American red and
black raspberry. This species is rel
atively unimportant. 1t is represent
ed by what is known as the purple
cane berries.
The raspberry has reached its great
est commercial importance in the
