Cut the Weeds and Grass.

Whether you are renter or an own CT, you should not permit grass and weeds to take" the sidewalk. Flies and mosquitoes bred in the tangled grass of home owner are just as an- moving and poisonous as those that are brought to life on the rented premises And the blow to civic beauty is as se- we're in the one instance as in the oth- health and civic beauty, which is to say, don't let weeds and grass encum- Der the sidewalk of the place that you call home.-Corsicana Sun.

Making the Town Worth Living In.

The following, from the pen of Judge Nelson Case of Oswego. applies to any Kansas town: Taxes paid for good roads, for libraries and schools, for any improvement which adds to the comfort, the enlightenment the happiness of people, are among the most valuable investments person can make, even though he cannot see that he has any direct interest in them. The most prosperous cities are those whose inhabitants have the most advantages for education, religious culture, recreation and such amuse- ments and diversions as are elevating in their tendencies. and are free from demoralizing influences. Kansas City is a fine example of this spirit and policy. 1t is what her citizens have done to make the city beautiful and desirable place in which to live, fully as much as her direct efforts to secure trade. that has given her the prestige she enjoys"-Kansas City Star.

Maturing the Soil.

In garden making the first essential is a heavy layer of barnyard manure placed on the surface and then turned under as deeply as 1t is possible to get it. If lot has to be filled three or four feet in depth, it should first be covered with two feet of barnyard manure. on top of which should be placed two feet of good soil. When all has been settled by the rains of one winter we will have garden .'as is garden. This illustration is used merely to show where manure should be placed if it be possible to get it there. A garden so filled in would grow roses and other towering shrubs that would prove little short of mar velous

FLOWERS IN CONCRETE WALLS
Monotony of Driveway Relieved by Device of Designer Who Gave

In designing residence driveway which was to be cut through a ter race, a builder avoided the menotony of having two long concrete retain ing walls hanking either side by breaking them at intervals with semi circular inches in which plants could
 be placed These spaces were made so that they broke what otherwise would have been the straight line of the two copings. Each was made about feet in depth and feet wide and given the same finish as the ex- terior walls Concrete jardinieres were made for the plants which were set in the spaces.-Popular Mechanics.

GARDENS IN LARGE CITIES
No Reason Why Certain Difficulties Shrould Not Easily Be Overcome,
 With Proper Thought.

There are few things that must be provided if Omaha Is to become famous for it's gardens, and it Is to be hoped that the agricultural expert who is coming here will attend to them, says the Omaha World-Heraid. There would be many more gardens If there were some central agency established where men too busy to at tend to all the work could call by telephone and get reliable man when one is needed The charity organiZa- tions have bsen relied upon, but the men who seek work through them are often inefficient and unreliable. One business man said T have quite large bit of ground in my back yard that l would like to put in a garden, but l cannot take a day of to spade it up and prepare the ground for the seed. I would be glad to plant the seed and care for the ground after ward Last year i tried getting man and after much worry got one. He was unreliable and the work that he did was hardly worth the time look
 
 cluded to seed it down and avoid that sort of worry"
 The plan for children Is good and should be boosted by every one, but a large number of gardens would be planted where there are no children if there were a place where the right kind of help could be secured. Lawns would be kept in better condition If man could be called by telephone when a mower was out of order or needed sharpening and when bulbs and shrubbery were to be planted.
 Omaha gardens and beautiful lawns would add very much to the city in the satisfaction of citizens and visitors and to the value of property. It mSht be good policy for some of the civic organizations to undertake to supply this want by establishing such cen tral agency. There Is no doubt that 1t would be a paying enterprise.

Patriotism Makes Her Wealthy.

The other day an old woman came into a bank in Prague and handed to the clerk an antique savings book, which showed a credit of $4S. She asked whether this would serve for the war loan, since she had no other money. She explained that this book was left by will to her mother, who, dying, gave it to her.
 Anyhow" she added timidly. "I would like so much to help a little bit
 The clerk took the book and disap. peared After while he came back and with him his superiors. including even the president of the bank And then they broke 1t gently to her that the book dated since 1886 and that therefore the $4S amounted now, with compound interest, to about $500.
 Without her patriotism she would never have known how rich she was.
