KEEP LAWN WELL ROLLED

To make a good lawn the soil re-
quires frequent rolling. In the first
place a good lawn cannot be produced
in one, two or three years, that is, a
perfect lawn, without depression and
with a soil surface as smooth as a
floor.
A lawn roller can be made, without
much expense, from cement, using
gas pipe for the axle and frame. The
form for setting the cement may be
of wood, using very narrow Stats or
galvanized iron. In case the latter is
used. the form may be left on the
roller, and If it is kept dry and pro-
tected from the weather, it will last a
long time.
A handy size for a lawn roller is
one about 20 inches long by IA inches
in diameter. If one has the proper
tools, which consist of a wise and a
thread-cutting tool, a roller can be
made in short time, and at very
little expense.

HOTBED FOR EARLY FLOWERS

A hotbed enables one to gain a
month on the season. They are made
and handled like coldframe, but are
built in a three-foot-deep excavation
which is filed to the level of the earth
with fresh stable manure, which for
few days has been fermented and
forked and fermented again 1t must
be trodden down and, when the soil is
at 80 degrees temperature, covered

the temperature of the air in the bed
may be 70 to so and at other times 55
to so degrees. A hotbed extends the

agitators furnished with power outfits
are usually one Of two types, Of which
the propeller type is, by all odds the
more desirable. II consists Of an iron

keeping the contents of the tank thor

throughout. With some outfits it is
operated by hand by means of an up
right lever; with others, by means of
q piston rod attached to the pump or
geared to the engine and working
through a stuffing box In the end of
the tank. This agitator answers fair

For large tank pumps operated by
hand the propeller agitator may be
conveniently operated by means of a
shaft fitted with a sprocket-wheel and
crank attached to the top Of the tank
and running parallel with the agitator
shaft. There is one serious objection
to the use of agitators operated by
hand and that is the impossibility Of
getting men to appreciate the neces-
sity Of constant and vigorous agita-
ton.

HINTS ABOUT FLOWERS

We usually think of pruning only
when plant is asleep. 1t is true, that
the easiest pruning should be done
then, but there is much that we can
do during the summer to keep plant
in good condition.
The lilac is usually the best pruned
shrub we have, for the simple reason
that we are apt to pick every bloom
The plant cannot of course then make
any seeds and the strength is thrown
into new wood where it belongs.
Rose bushes should be treated the
same way A second bloom can be
produced on wistaria, by following this
rule and cutting head of each runner

side Of the stake, about four inches
from 1t, and train same to stake as it
grows, tying with binder twine or
cloth strings. which are preferable.
Many times when the vines are very

from the top. but clip one on, allow
ing only one to grow to . height OF
five feet, then clip the tops and keep
them clipped, which win hasten the
ripening, and convert nh the strength
of the vine into fruit.
When the plants are eight or ten
inches high, little runners or shoots
win appear in the forks. Here, writes
@. p. Bowsley In Farm and Home, is
where the whole secret Hes. These
runners sap the main vines and turn
all the strength intO vines instead of
tomatoes. When they appear pinch

to grow. The fruit buds or blossoms

CARE OF THE FERNS
ey i. M. BENNINGTON.

The ordinary way to propagate this
class Of plants is by dividing the
plants. by the creeping rhizomes. by
the little bulblets that form on the
fronds and by the seeds or spores that
appear on the under side of the
leaves.
The enterprising fern lover will find
1t most interesting to propagate by
spores and perchance produce a really
valuable addition to these beautiful
and graceful plants.
