ny ELIzABErH HELEN GRAHAM,

Any one interested in flowers. either
for pleasure or profit. will find the
dahlia one " the most satisfactory
plants.
The cheapest way to grow them II
from seed. II you have no convent
ences for seed growing and trans
planting It will be necessary to pur-
chase bulbs.
There are several classes. the cac-
tus. decorative. show. fancy. pompom.
single and collarettc. For the ordin-
airy home plot forty to fifty bulbs or
seedlings Will give a good start az
each year tho bulbs multiply. Sow
the seed in boxes or flats, ten inches
wide. twenty inches long and four
inches deep. about March /. Two
inches Of the box should be filled with
straw or broken pots or gravel for
drainage. n have quarter inch holes
in the bottom Of the box. A good
place to set the flats is over the radi-
ator on the south side of the room;
this gives the seeds both bottom and
top heat.
About the middle OF April trans
plant the seedlings to a cold frame,
and about the latter part OF May set
out in the bed whore they are 10

n should not be planted closer than
thirty niche apart each way.
II Is better to prepare your flower

ground again and spade TO a depth Of

Plant a single bulb. not the clump. in
a hole about seven inches deep, mix
about m quart Of cow MANURE To
each hole. Lay the bulb HAT and
with earth. This will result in

plants a nitrate Of soda solution. This

dig up and dry the bulbs and store

REAL SAVING

1t isn't the money you

at least quarter Of a mill

be planting their own GAR
dens and saving their an

dollars for fresh vegetables.
Such saving is more than

The Yale Company
Port Huron Times-Herald)

Port Huron Times-Herad)
A concern that is rapidly obtaining
recognition in all parts of the country
and which is deservedly gaining a rep.
utation for the excellence of its product
is the Yale Manufacturing Company
presided over by Mr.. j. III. Philip, 217
Il. Water street. The firm specializes
in the manufacture and sale of chemical
fire engines and extinguishers, and is
well known for the efficiency of their
machines. The energies of the men
behind the concern are ever directed to
the perfection of these valuable fire.
fighters, and the latest model portable
chemical fire engine turned out by them
has gained for them the praise of
numerous municipalities who have had
occasion to use them. This new tyye
is very compact engine, with guar
anteed tank, and number of features
that are to be found exclusively on the
Yale Company's output. Among these
special features may be mentioned a
reel of hose that prevents twisting or
kinking, fifty feet of guaranteed rubber
hose, always connected with the chem
ical tank, and ready for use at NOM
ent's notice, lamp holders that hold the
lantern rigid and perfectly secure, all
brass trimmings, extra charge box, etc.
The engine itself is a machine of ex-
traordinary strength and neat appear
ance and is capable of giving a pressure
that will easily reach in all accessible
places in the course of fire. The ma
lOrity of the towns and cities in the
eastern part of the state are using these
engines and the officials are loud in
their praises of their efficiency. Orders
have been coming in with regularity
and the firm has had its hands full to
supply the demand. Mr.. j. ii. Phillip,
the manager, is gentleman who has
made practically life study of machin-
cry of various kinds and has made an
especial study of the requirements of
this particular field. He is therefore
in position to turn out machine that
is superior to anything in this line.
The business has reached large proper
tions, and is doing much to advertise
the excellence of "Made in Port Huron"
goods. 1t is matter of qualification
to note that he shortly intends to en-
large the plant and increase its facili-
ties, and we sincerely hope that the
Yale Company will soon take its place
among the large and important man
ufacturing interests of Port Huron.
