PROPER CARE. OF THE LAWN
Grass Plat Must Never se Neglected
If Home Is to Have Proper
Appearance.

One of the most important duties
on the home place during the summer
is the care of the lawn. There is
nothing about a place that makes so
much for general attractiveness as a
well cared for lawn.
Many people make the mistake of
keeping the lawn cut too close. In
that case the grass roots are exposed
to hot sun and drying winds during
the summer. Cut the lawn frequently,
but do not set the machine too close.
To keep the lawn looking clean at all
times have grass-catcher attachment
on the mower. A careful watch for
weeds on the lawn should be kept.
Cut them out well below the surface
with an old knife as soon as they are
large enough to be seen.
A roller on the lawn is advisable,
but it should be used with care.
Lawns that have been rolled for a long
time are likely to become over-rolled;
there is surface cohesion or close
packing Of the top soil, which prevents
the admission of all. and healthy root
development. The remedy is the use
of the spiked tampsr. A homemade
one may be made by taking piece Of
two-inch plank, some 12x12-inch tim
Der and inserting four-inch spikes an
inch and a half or two inches apart.
Bore holes little smaller than the
spikes before driving them in, to pre-
vent splitting the wood. Perforate
the whole surface thoroughly with
this, give a top dressing, lightly rake
1t In and water the whole thoroughly
late In the afternoon.

HAVE TOP SASH SCREENED
May Be Considered Small Matter, But
10 Always Advlsable-Advlce for
:, Prospective Builder.

Don't forget that you may at some
time want to open the top sash of the
window, and that flies and mosquitoes
are not particular as to through which
sash they enter; therefore have the
screen run from top to bottom Of the
window; to do this, side springs will
be necessary In the screen frames, but
they will cost little more than screen
which can be used only from the bot
tom sash and which is little better
than no screen at all.
Don't forget that there viii never be
O better time to build than the pres
ent; materials of all kinds are cheap
er than they have been for several
years, and as soon as the European
war is over there Is sure to be a sharp
advance in prices.
Don't say you can't build now be-
cause you have not enough money; If
you have a little, the cooperative
banks and building associations will
loan you the balance needed upon
terms under which you can pay for the
house in monthly installments which
would be no more than you would or
dinarily be paying for rent.-Ex-

The CITY Beautiful.

A one-time mayor of New York,
George B. Mcclellan, said: 'In a
self-governing community. the ul-
innate object of the government is the
happiness of the governed. Something
more is needed to make the happy
city than health and. 1ealth and wis
dom. The city healthy, the city
wealthy, and the city wise, may excite
satisfaction, complaisance and pride,
but it Is the city beautiful that COM
pels and retains the love Of people. +"
When last the tree men Of the South
met at Riverside, In the music room
of the famous Glenwood Mission inn,
an Illuminated sign stretched across
the stage, which read: Make your
city beautiful and you will learn to
love it."

us the bursting shells looked like five
little cotton balls Since this war be-
gan schrapnel. when 1t bursts, has in
variably been compared to balls of cot
ton. and as that is exactly what it
looks like. it is again so described.
The balls of cotton did not seem to rise
from the earth, but to pop suddenly out
of the sky.
A moment later FIVE more cotton balls
popped out of the Sky. They were much
nearer the aeroplane. Others followed,
leaping after it like the spray of sue
ceedirg waves. But the aeroplane
steadily and swiftly conveyed itself
out of range and out of sight.
Scene at the Front.
To say where the trenches began
and where they ended is difficult. We
were passing through land that had
been retrieved from the enemy. 1t has
been fought for inch by inch, foot by
foot. To win it back thousands of
lives had been thrown like dice upon
table. There were vast stretches of
mud of fields once cultivated. but now

coal pits. They were inhabited by
race of French unknown to the boule-
vards-mep, bearded. deeply tanned
and caked with clay. Their uniforms
were like those of foot ball players on
rainy day at the end of the second
half. We were entering what had
been the village of Ablain. and before
US rose the famous heights of Mont de

ed feat as incredible as scaling our
palisades or the sheer cliff of Gi-
braltar. But they had been scaled and
the side toward us was crawling with
French soldiers, climbing to the
trenches. descending from the trenches,
carrying to the trenches food, ammuni-
ton and fuel for the fires.
Roads Are Made Swamps.
A cold rain was falling and had
turned the streets of. .Abiain and all
the roads to 1t into swamps. In these
were islands of bricks, and lakes of
water of the solidity and color of
melted chocolate. Whatever you
touched clung to you. 1t was Jand

wind whipped the rain against your
face and chilled you to the bone. All
you saw depressed and chilled your

They moved in streets of clay two
feet across. They were as far re-

they have known it as though they
had been cast adrift upon an island of
liquid mud. Wherever they looked
was desolation. ruins and. broken

In other wars the front was some
thing almost human. 1t advanced or
wavered and withdrew at a single
bugle call. 1t was electrified in no
fixed place, but. like wave. 1t en-

horses and cheering men overwhelmed
a valley. In comparison to this trench
work did not suggest war. Rather it
reminded you Of 4 mining camp dur

bursting on Mont de Lorette might
have come from miners blasting rock.
View of the Trenches.
What we saw of these cave dwellers
was only few feet of moat that for
800 miles is thrown across France
like a miniature canal. Where we
stood we could see of the 300 miles
only mud walls, SO close that we
brushed one with ca ch elbow. BY look
ing up we could see the black lead of
the sky. Ahead of us the trench twist
