In a decision delivered not long age
the supreme court of Illinois upholds
the principle underlying Chicago's pres.
ent billboard ordinance. Not only is
the measure declared valid, but the
reasoning of the court indicates that
even a stronger ordinance dealing with
the billboard would be sustained.
AS the contest over this nuisance Is
going to the supreme court Of the Unit
ed States, where the frontage consent
feature of the existing ordinance mayl
be the special object of attack, oppo-
nents Of billboards are seeking to i'm
prove the measure. Instead of provid-
ing, as does the ordinance as it stands,
that billboards may be permitted inl
certain conditions only with the ap-
prevail of the majority of the property
holders in the Leighborhood, the city
council is nov asked to prohibit abso
lutely b!llboa.ds within $50 feet Of anyl
hospital, church or school, in blocks
in which one-half or more of the build
ings are used exclusively for residence
purposes and in vacant blocks adjoin-

Beautiful Elau Flower

a sword for its leaf and a lily for its

flower born in the purple, to Joy and
pleasance." 1t blooms in the wet,
rich marsh and meadow, from May to
July, and finds its home from New
foundlahd and Manitoba to Florida

look to the insect world entirely for
its propagation, particularly to the
bees as its pollen carriers So it puts

POULTRY
.F.NE7S
WHITE WYANDOTTES IN FAVOR
One of the Most Important Things fer
Beginner Is Selection of Breed
Seven Good Characteristics.
(By JOHN c. LYsTER1

NBN JOttN Z. L1STER.)
When a beginner starts a poultry
plant, large or small, one of the most
important things for him to consider
is the breed he wants.
If after eggs only it would be pol
icy for him to select one of the Med
iterrane2n breeds, such as the Leg
horn. Ii he desires to market ma
ture birds he should keep meat breed
like the Cornish or the B-ahma. Ii
a general purpose fowl is his aim he
must select the White Wyandotte for
the following reasons:
First. AS layers this breed has
proved its superiority to all others, as
shown in three recent laying compe-
titions, When the Grand average for
White Wyandottes was 1870 eggs il
one ye2r-a far better record than
that of the Leghorrs or the Reds.
Second. White WyGndOtte eggs are
large ard brown, an advantage that is
of great Importance in the markets
of my vicinity.
Third. The chicks are hardy and
grow to broiler size quicker than any

FOLLOWING THE CLEANUP.
New Orleans Sends Printed Reminders
to Its Citizens.

New Orleans Sends Printed Reminders
to Its Citizens.
Keeping the city in order from day
to day, after the annual cleanup, is a
problem which requires some ingenui-
ty. To ward off a relapse into care
lessness on the part of its spring clean
ed citizens the department of public
property of New Orleans has recently
issued set of small folders called the
"City Beautiful Series" which it is ex-
peCted will be effective in producing
results. These are printed in style
to make them attractive and interest
ing and are unique as to contents. In
each case as a practical part of the
argument it is stated that the depart
ment is determined to put an end to
the throwing Of papers and rubbish
upon the streets and that stringent
measures will be adopted to punish all
violatOrS of the city ordinances upon
this subject.
These warnings are distributed by the
citizens committee, which consists of
representatives of the board of trade,
New Orleans Association of Commerce
and other commercial organizations.
Each ward in the city also has rep
resentative on the committee, and the
WOmen's club has rendered valuable
assistance in circulating the folders.
1t is interesting to note that each Of
the seventeen wards of New Orleans
has a club devoted to the beautifyng
of its surroundings and that repre-
sentative from each precinct reports
progress at the ward meetings.
