MURDER OF GARY PASTOR MAY BARE SPY WAR IN U. s. Secret Service Agents of Warning Nations Swarm
 Little City. REV. KAISER AGENT
 OF SECRET SERVICE Murdered Minister Kept Watch on Shipments from MunitiOn Plants. Suspected of Offering Bribe for
 Destruction of Factory.

Gary. Ind. Sept. 11.-This poly glot steelmaking district where about 11,000 men are turning out war mu- nitions for the allies has been the scene of extensive spying and conn- ter spying activities since the Rev. Edmund A. H. Kayser, an ardent pro- German. was murdered in his parson- age in the suburb of TOlleston.
 Detectives have sWarmed. The To- cal police under Chief Pontus Heintz have been extremely active; several men have come here from the Chica- go bureau; and the federal depart ment of justice has shown an energy which ought to produce results. In addition the German societies of Chi cago, Hammond and Gary have hired supposed experts to ferret out the slayers.
 This is on the surface. But beside these admitted detective activities there are two others, probably the most powerful of all.
 These are the secret agents oi Germany and the contending forces of the allied governments. Of course, Gernanys worldwide spy system was developed first anG most eXten- sively. But since the beginning oi the war the agents of the allies have brought their organization to an eff ciency probably eau ualing the kais- CTS

IF BACK HURTS CLEAN
KIDNEYS WITH SALTS
Drink let's Of Water and Stop Ea..as
Meat for a While If the Bladder

Meat forms uric acid which excites
and overworks the kidneys in their
efforts to filter it from the system.
Regular eaters of meat must flush the
kidneys occasionally. You must re-

To neutralize these irritating acids

SELF-S0WING ANIMALS

Plant s~elf-sowing ANIMALS among
your bulbs and avoid the trouble of
bedding plants. There are many good
ones for the purpose, which once
planted. will come up evermore.
For blue, there are Ageratum, blue
perfection, cornfiowers and Nigella,
Miss Jeckell; for yellow, calliopsis and
California poppy; for white snow on
the mountain (Euphorbia), charming
with cut flowers. Where mixed colors
will not interfere with some scheme,
there are annual larkspur and shirley
poppies.
The stakes for the garden-for those
plants which will not stand erect alone
should be invisible.
Stakes, even green ones, are always
conspicuous and the strings which tie
the plants to them almost always
change the natural position of the
stalks and spoil the grace of the plant.
The difficulty may be overcome in
large measure by the use Of brush in.
stead of stakes. Select pieces with
plenty of side branches and break
these back II they are too long. The
brush is soon hidden by the leaves
and supports the plants in a natural
position. There is also no danger OF
the flower stalk swapping as it is apt
to do against a string.
Brush is very good to place amone
peoples, ~cornfiowers or any close row
growing plant. 1t is completely hid
den, and yet supports the plants. Il
is equally effective for tall things like
delphiniums and anchusa.

look so pretty in the twilight. Bios

Saving From Old Feathers.

One of the most astonishing things
accomplished by the new conservation
is the gathering up of the fragments
of feathers, writes Lewis Edwin
Thesis in the Outlook. Our grand
mothers used to pluck the hens and
geese, sun the feathers and use them
for beds. But science has shown that
these sun-cured feathers were really
very unclean. Today the pillow manu-
facturer takes out tons and tons of
dirt from similar feathers. This is
partly dust, but mostly it consists OF
small pieces of flesh and skin that
adhere to the feathers. For years pill
low makers paid teamsters so much
a load to haul away this waste, Now
it is known that this waste is rich in
nitrogen, and so is a good fertilizer.
Now it sells for $40 a ton, What
would our grandmothers think If
they knew the inside story of their
feather beds?

When the roses bloom cut back to
a strong and well developed bud, and
in a short time this shoot will grow,
and develop into a rose.
Water thoroughly when the soil is
dry to the touch, but never sprinkle
roses when they need watering. Give
them plenty Of it.
Late in the fall carefully remove
the roses with plenty Of soil, and pack
them together in a well drained cor
ner of the garden.
Bury them in strawy manure and
leaves held down by cornstafks or
thick brush.
Next spring, when the roses start
into growth, cut back to within five
or six inches Of the ground, and plant
into their boxes with new soil. Dis
turb the roots as little as possible.
The Baby Rambler is a good rose
for veranda boxes.

AMONG THE FLOWERS

One fine plant is worth a dozen sick
ly, dyspeptic mes.
Mixed hyacinths answer for the
outdoor planting but separate colors
are inexpensive.
The Roman hyacinth, for early pot
ting, will give bloom for the holidays,
and is satisfactory for outdoor plant
ing.
The sooner you send in your order
for bulbs, the better bulbs you will
get, as the florists stock is full, and
choice can be made.
Tulip bulbs are inexpensive, and
should be ordered by the hundred.
This number will give a fine bed for
spring blooming, if ordered in vari.
ETY..
Plant tulips six inches apart and
four inches deep; give slight protec.
ton with rough stable manure II
planted in variety, they will give
bloom a long time.
Tulips for indoor blooming must
have a cooler temperature, or the buds
will blast. They are apt to fall a
prey to aphis, if care is not taken
For outdoors, they are simply gor
geous in color.
For cemetery planting, there are
some fine white ones, both double anG
single. The pale colors are also love
ly in the cemetery.
Plant crocuses anywhere; they are
never out of place. Many of the cheap
er bulbs are very fine for borders, ant
for the house.
Don't buy spongy soft bulbs if you
want good results. The bulbs wortf
having are solid and heavy.
Ivy geraniums are fine house plants
with beauty of both flower and foliage
Give them a small pot. For the frs
veal their growth is slow.

think of reproduction-the propaga-

means flowers. Wistaria is a slow
grower and slow to reach the point OF
Towering.
Prune in the spring, or late in the
winter most of the side shoots on the

H VERANDA BOX

An ideal veranda box is planted
with roses down its center. and the
remaining space filed with standard,
climbing and dropping ANNALS.
The veranda box should be Is
inches wide, ten inches deep and as
long as desired. Bore an inch hole
through every square foot of the bot
tom of the box; then put in a layer
of broken crockery. pebbles or cinders
for drainage.
Roses thrive best in a rich but firm
soil; therefore, stiffen the soil with
clay, and enrich with well rotted cow
manure.
Plant the roses, if teas, six inches
apart, and If hybrids, twice that dis
lance. and firm the soil well about
them. Place the boxes where they
will get the sun most of the day.

WISTARIA

The commonest cause for the non
towering of wistarias are unbalanced
pruning. An excessive amount of nj
trogenous matter in a fertilizer or the
soil causes the plant, whether it be
vine or bush, to develop great stem
and leaf parts at the expense of flow
ers and fruit. By Withholding all food
for a season you may bring your plant
into blossom. In the same way any
shock to the plants system will check
