Our Girls.

To bring up girl in absolute de-
pendence, goor-for-nothing. selfish in
her aims and exacting in her demands.
is a sin against her and against soci-
ETY.. To begin at her birth and econo-
mize and retrench in every department
for the accumulation of money in order
that this monstrous perversion of her
life may be accomplished and main
tained is grotesque and heathenish.
Girls thus trained will fail to attain a
high order Of womanhood. Their aims
will be petty, their ideals low. and
nothing satisfactory can be expected
of them in wifehood or motherhood.
While we carefully guard whatever is
womanly in our daughters, let them be
trained to more fiber and firmness.
Educate them to self-denial. if pecuni-
ary circumstances demand it, and not
to self-indulgence. Accustom them to
be of service in the household. to re-
gard economy as praiseworthy and
even heroic, and to add to their ac-
complishments practical knowledge
of work. and the possession of some
lucrative vocation OF industry by which
they can support themselves. Such
girls, when portionless. will carry to
their husbands dowries in themselves.

KEEPING UP THE LAWN

Kill weeds on the lawn by either
pulling or cutting OF the plant below
the crown.
Don't NOW the lawn too closely
during the heated term; but do not
allow weeds to go to seed.
Deep working. thorough pulveriza-
tion, effective fertilization and q
thorough raking and rolling down to
a smooth level are all necessary to q
smooth, level lawn.
Get your lawn seeds of q reliable
scotsman, and ask for the best and
the freshest. Don't use old seed left
over from last year, but insist on hav-
ing 1t fresh, and of a good mixture.
The best time to seed q lawn is
during the latter part of August or
the early part of September. At that
season, the heat is over and showers
are almost sure to come. and the
young grass will have several months
Of cool, moist weather in which to
grow before winter.

NO WAR TAX ON

Defaming neighbor at the expense

The present war has given some of

The Alberta Government has imposed
q Provincial tax of 10 mills on the as
sessed value of all uncultivated lands.
There are some special applications of
these taxes, but the main provisions
are as above. Those vacant lands
held by non.residents in Western Can
ada form a grave problem. They are
making for poor communities, poor
schools and poor social and economic
conditions generally. BY having them
cultivated the owners as we'll as the
districts in which they are located
will benefit alike. 1t is for this reason
that the Government has recently
asked the cooperation of the non-resi-

some years to come, and the general
splendid character Of Western Canada

Over this put a layer of manure we'll

Water sparingly until growth COM
mences. and then the water can hardly
be supplied too freely.
Always use warm water. The roots
will enjoy it quite hot. but this is
death to the stem. Some place q ring
of tin around the base of the stem,
pressing it down an inch into the
soil. With this projections the hot
water can be freely used.
Bottom heat may also be supplied
by placing the pot on hot brick. By
keeping pair of bricks for this pur-

the buds can be forced more freely.
Give liquid manure once or twice q
