posed to Lord KitChner. following the

PAisks ~ CITY BACKYARDS
Beautifying the Ugly spots in the
community.

II has already been cOnvinclnglv
demonstrated, here in Baltimore. that
the scheme Of tearing down division
fences between city home backwards
and developing the unobstructed
stretch of space thus provided as n
continuous flower garden or a erased
lawn Is no chlmerical or impractical
dream. IT has been demonstrated
. because IL has been done on several
back stretches and partially accom-
-plished in hundreds OF instances. Nv
partially accomplished we mean those
instances where two or three or four
adjoining hOuseholders have. thrown
their backyards into a common and
developed the enlarged spaces into
flower gardens This backward mark
idea. developed 10 the limit Of poten-
TALLY would men the tearing down
Of all fences on both sides Of the mid
way alley and beautifying an the yards
upon some harmonious scheme Of or
namental gardening.
There are comparatively few block
csnters in which this complete
scheme Of ornamentation can he real
lied, for the reason that many own
ers wish TO build y garage stable
or some other kind Of outbuilding in
the backward and fronting along the
alley. While the placing of rear
buildings in one or more Of the back
yards OF block interfetes with the
complete realization Of the backward
parking scheme. It need not prevent
tt. partial carrying out of the plan
And as to bct buildings. their ugli-
ness and inharmony can be greatly
modified by planting climbing roses
or other climbing vines along their
sides and rear ends There is nothing
so .utilitarian-not even q stable
that every thought of Identification
should be abandoned in connection
with it.-BaltimOre American.
