CONVERTS STRONG
GARDEN BOOSTER
FORMER OTTUMWAN IS DOING
CONSIDERABLE OF THAT
WORK IN NORTH.

F. E. Conner, formerly Of Ottum-
wa, now of Superior, Wis, who is
visiting at the home of his uncle, DR..
J. G. Holloway, 221 South Ward street,
is a strong advocate for community
gardening and school gardens in par
ticular Mr. Conner is now on a three
weeks trip through this state. Illinois,
Indiana Missouri and Kansas, in the
interests of this work, and while here
has called upon the superintendent of
the public schools, members of the
board and others likely to be inter
ested in the work; in the hope of get
ting something of like nature Start-
ed in Ottumwa.
At Superior, community gardening
on large scale has been inaugurated
under the auspices of the Fourth Ward
Improvement club of which Mr.. Con-
ner is the president. A large plot OF
land in the city, which has, hitherto,
been barren, will be closed by the
club and apportioned among the differ.
ent families living in that vicinity.
The project is the out-cropping OF the
city cleanup campaign in Superior
and the prospects are for city garden
blooming at nearly every corner there:
Plans also include the placing OF
flower boxes at the second story win
dows of the Office buildings.
Mr.. Conner states that the theory
upon which the school gardens are
based, is that, in the study of nature
the child learns the beauties of ma
ture and will probably begin to ap-
preciate the contrast between the free
open air life of the country and the
palmer and more bare life Of the city
Students of horticulture, botany and
general plant life in the higher grades
are also given an opportunity, in this
way, to study his work in a true,
back to nature style.

Courier Secures Serial BIZ
Auth0rof WdNingford Tales

The Courier has secured another
good serial story for its readers and
the first installment of it will be print
ed next week. The story is "A Tale
of Red Roses" and the author is none
other than the popular George Ran
dolph Chester, the creator of j. Rufus
Wallingford and the Wallingford "get
rich quick" stories. IA Tale of Red
Roses" is not Wallingford story but
1t is no wit less interesting for that
reason as the author does not have to
conflne himself to get rich quick
schemes in order to write enthralling
novels. The new serial Is what might
be called love story with all the ro-
nance and interest that go with love
Stories were it not for the fact that
Chester wrote it. Chester makes
love story something better than
love story, because he has just that
individual touch that has made Wal
lingford character that is known
wherever English is spoken.
"A Tale of Red Roses" doesn't
sound very stirring, but the book be-
lies the title for it is full of action
as we'll as romance and is a dandy
story. If you are not subscriber
to The Courier already, better become
one for "A Tale of Red Roses" will
