HEDGES FOR THE GARDEN
They Protect the Yard, Mark 6oun-
daries, Hide Ugly Spots and Serve
Many Useful Purposes.


Hedges, If you have place for them,
serve at once the uses Of utility and
beauty. They protect your yard. help
you out in many ways, such as mark
ing boundaries, hiding ugly sights or
guarding beds of tender things from
blustery winds, and they add to the
appearance OF your garden In older
times there is reason to believe that
the protective feature of hedges COM
mended them chiefly to landowners,
keeping out cattle, and even men
There are a great many hedges in the
country which were planted and
trained with that purpose.

where you could use hedge. II can

Cape Girardeau has announced that

natural beauty. and the union of two
slopes, one from the north and one
from the south, form a picturesque
water front.
But Cape Girardeau isn't satisfied
with natural beauty alone. 1t is go

WARNING TO AMERICAN LIFE
Seen in Congestion, ugIIness and Dis
comforts of the Average Eng
lish City

If the English city presents in it's
congestion, it's ugliness, it's discom-
forts, horrible warning to Ameri-
can life, experiments like that at
Hampstead present hope and an in
spiration and a way of avoiding the
urban evils which followed in England
the mad deluge of the industrial revo-
luton. For the chief value of build
ing beauty into the collective life
of city is that thus the ideas and
principles which animate that beauty
are given the most effective and dra-
matte form. Every one can feel the
charm of open spaces, of effective Wis
tas and the harmonious grouping of
buildings; a village like Hampstead
attracts immediate and widespread at
tention, and becomes the leaven which
leavens a broad lump. Though it is
the external form and not the inner
spirit and motive which are being
copied. already in the countryside
about the village are to be seen the
inspiration of the model; new build
ing estates are being developed in the
frankest imitation of the Hampstead
principles, while pioneer rows Of un
regenerated brick villas stand tenant
less, unable to compete with the new
idea. And if village composed on
these principles can permeate it's own
vicinity so quickly and SO complete
ly, it almost guarantees itself as q
model and inspiration for the build
ers OF the cities which men of the
twentieth century will find fit to live
in.-Randolph S. Bourne, in the At
lantic

"a
Decadence OF VILLAGES.

The typical American village, from
New York to New Mexico, IL often
wanting In civic spirit. That fact I'm
writ large upon it's face. It has one
focus OF interest In the school and
half q dozen in the churches and
lodges. But IL lacks the solidarity
that would manifest itself in genu-
inc village pride. A population small
enough to be really a unit and perma-
nent enough to strike its roots deep
yet does not organize itself This n
not true of the towns of New Eng
land, which so years ago looked after
their lyceums, their commons. shade
trees and white palings. But the
dreariness of most western, Atlantic
and southern villages testifies to the
rule: they bear an unkempt aspect
which, as William Allen White wrote,
requires the touch Of twilight to give
ii kindness.
The change must follow upon the
birth of a new social spirit in the VIII
lage itself Wherever in the future
we have a beautiful center we may
be sure a set of social minded peo-
pie has been created.

COUNTRY TOWNS ARE NEEDED
IL IL of Mutual Benefit for Farmers
and Tradesmen to Stimulate
Home Trade.

The local merchant Is not only a
necessity, but benefit to his commu-
nifty IL there were no country towns
and no country merchants the whole
fabric of our system of trade in the
agricultural states would be changed.
1t would be inconvenient for farmers
to send to distant points for every
thing needed and would, on the other
hand, be impossible for them to do
efficient long-range marketing of their
produce.
Town property and adjoining farm
lands are increased in value through
the prosperous extension of town trade
and the building up of towns in CEN
tiers Of thriving sections. 1t is there
fore of joint benefit for farmers and
tradesmen to work together for the
stimulation of home trade.
Farmers cannot be expected TO pat
ronize home trade from motives of
sentiment only. If they can get better
service, including, personal inspection
of the goods before buying and the
guarantee to replace them or correct
imperfections, they will find it more
satisfactory than the alleged advan-
tage of buying of the catalogue houses.

Earliest Record of EcIinse.

The earliest record of an eclipse
was that Of the Sun. observed by the
Chinese, B. Q. 2158. The first record
of an eclipse approaching any definite
ness of account was the Nineveh
eclipse B. C. 1853. The most notable
eclipse recorded in history was that
of the sun at the time of the battle
between the Lydians and Modes, May
%, B. G. 5S5. The battle was sus-
pended and peace was made through
the good Offices of Thales. The most
important eclipse, however, IN the his
tory of mankind occurred in A. D.
$40, and which caused. the death Of
Emperor Louis. The three sons
promptly engaged in war among
themselves. The war lasted three
years and ended with the treaty OF
Verdun, whereby France, Italy and
Germany were carved out of Charlie

LIGHTING OF OUR STREETS

Municipal engineers who find them
selves confronted with the renewal
of city lighting contracts are just now
in somewhat of Quandary. A rapid
and extensive change Is going on with
respect to illuminants, and it brings
with it the possibility OF extremely
radical changes In street lighting. For
the first time there is now available

practical character in units Of mod

in the last few years Is an excellent
small unit, but not for moment COM

Artificial six.

Much artificial silk is made from
cotton or pine wood pulp completely
dissolved. This forms slightly viscid
fluid which is pressed through fine
holes. The strands coming from these
holes, after being solidified and, pur-
fed, have an appearance very similar
to genuine silk, but they are solid in
stead of hollow, about one-eighth as
strong as real silk and very much
weaker when wet. There are several
different kinds made by different proc
esses, but none of them are as strong
or as durable as genuine silk and none
will endure heat and moisture as well
as real silk. Most of them would be
ruined by moistening them and at
tempting to press them with a hot
iron.
