REASON FOR THE MUSTACHE
In Evidence as Having Been Worn by
British Soldiers as Measure of
Military Necessity.

The correspondent who writes to a
contemporary suggesting that the
British war Office authorities should
insist on soldiers being clean shaven
instead of ordering them to wear mus
taches, might have alleged TeutoniC
influence in the adoption Of the mus
tache of the British army. The idea
was first borrowed from a batch of
Austrian officers quartered with some
of our troops on the South coast dur
ing the Waterloo campaign. 1t was
then taken up by the guards, who very
much resented any attempt on the
part of mere line regiments to follow
the new fashion. The winter cam
paign in the Crimea led our men to
grow full boards for warmth, and
these, modified into flowing whiskers
C'Picadilly weepers,' as they came
to be called) on their return to Lon
don, were long regarded as the mark
of the man of ashion.-Loudon

Petitions for the initiation Of state
law levying a tax OF one-half mill on
all property in the state for the sup
port of the four district agricultural
schools were mailed from here to per-
sons all over the state by Arthur Crast,
secretary of the Craighead County
Farmers Union. The petitions were
sent TO representatives of the Farmers
Union locals and others who will seek
signers. II is planned to have the
measure voted upon at the general
election a year from November. The
bill TO be initiated is identical with
one introduced in the legislature sew
eral years ago.
The principals Of the four schools
and the student bodies are behind the
movement and say they feel sure
that with the aid OF the farmers the
bill will become a law.
"The idea of the bill is to take the
schools out of politics and place them
on a sound basis where they can build
up under a financial system free from
political influence" Mr.. Crast said
1--WE believe the people of the state
favor such measure At least we
shall give them a chance to express
themselves"

ing every month; but by planting diff
ferent varieties some of them may be
kept blooming nearly the entire sum-
mer. The daisy is really not domes-
ticated flower, as great many low
growing wild flowers are called daisies.
Many varieties are classed as weeds.
In fact, the ox-eyed daisy, which is
plentiful all through New England and
some of the northern states, is called
white-weed.
The chrysanthemums and wild as
ters are called daisies and really be-
long to the same family.
While it would not be possible per-
haps to have daisy hedge in bloom
all the year, still by planting the vari-
Gus species of daisies, chrysanthe-
NUNS and asters some bloom could
be had from April to November.

LATE SUMMER WORK AMONG
THE FLOWERS
BY HELEN WATTS M'VEY.

For the window garden get only
plants adapted to such conditions, or
that have been especially prepared for
winter blooming
Keep them growing, shifting into
larger pots as they grow, and do not
allow them to blossom during the fall
Old geraniums that have bloomed all
summer will not bloom in the window
garden. Root young plants, or get
them Of the florist and get the sorts
that take kindly to house conditions
Keep them in pots with not too
rich soil and plunge the pots in some
shady place with good light. Pinch
out all buds.
Cutting Of hard-wooded plants
should be started to roofing in mid
summer when the new growth begins
10 harden. Almost any hardwooded
plant can be propagated by slippings
or cuttings with proper treatment
The cuttings should be four or FIVE
inches long and inserted three inches
In sand and kept wet and partly shad-
ed and out of the way Of the wind un-
til the roots are formed.
They are slower to start than soft
wood plants, but seldom fail II cut.

IN planting a window garden, decide

PERRY COUNTY SEAT
HEARING POSTPONED
PETITION WITH MORE THAN 1000
NAMES PRESENTED BY BlGE-
LOW AND PERRY.
$4,000 BOND IS DEPOSITED
When the Petition Is Heard Two
Weeks Hence the Judge Will Set
Date For the Election.

blStlOM
Final hearing on petition for the
removal of the county seat of Perry
County from Perryville to some point
on the Rock Island Railroad was de-
ferred by order of County Judge w.
A. Linebarger for two weeks. A pc
tition with more than 1000 names
was presented by representatives from
Bigelow and Perry, who are endeavor-
ing to secure county site for their re
speCtive towns.
Each town deposited $4,000 with the
county clerk and filed a bond guaran-
teeing that the successful town would
furnish plot on which to build the
courthouse.
On motion Of representatives from
Adona and Houston, which are also
on the railroad, the hearing of the pc
tition was deferred two weeks to allow
the bond for the plot of ground to be
raised in these two towns and the
$4,000 bonus to be secured, so that
they may get in the preferential elec.
ton also
When the petition is heard two
weeks hence the Judge will set the
date for the election, as the law pro-
vides that it be held within 60 days
from the date of the hearing.

DAISIES EVERY MONTH IN
YEAR

In the mild climate of California and
some of the southern states, daisies
bloom all the year around.
In California these flowers grow
very much larger than those of the
East, as do all Pacific coast flowers;
but they seem to lack brilliancy, and
to many persons are not as satisfac,
tory.
Luther Burbank developed the Shas-
ia daisy to very large and beautiful
flower and this is largely taking the
place of the Marguerite or Paris daisy
which has long been favorite with
Californians.
In the colder climates. of course, it
is impossible to keep daisies bloom.
