Willard was training here last spring,

brought about through the co-opera-
ton Of the Portland Commercial club
and adopted by the local school author
tiles.
In 1912 the first school garden on
the Pacific coast, containing two acres
in all. was established. giving Port
land the proud distinction Of original
ing the school garden idea.
Where was once the eyesore Of the
city, the unsightly lot and the dump
ing ground Of disease breeding debris
has now been transformed into flower
and vegetable gardens by the pupils Of
the various school districts. The re-
suit today shows that in 1914 forty
three school gardens varying in size
from 40 by so feet to two acres. aver
aging about 100 by $50 feet, covering
a total Of nearly sixteen acres. were
participated in by 500 pupils. besides
the $500 home gardens that we're TAX
en- care Of by the same number Of boys
and girls on the lots adjoining their
homes.
1t has resulted in the elimination of
the unsightly' eyesore, and the school
gardens have been developed in Port
land to a higher state of efficiency and
of usefulness than in any other city in
America and has so been acknowledge
ed by the educational department OF
the United States government The
entire United States has adopted Port
lands method of utilizing the vacant
lot.
Every school this year has its n or
more gardens. These gardens have
not only instructed them as to the prop
er methods of c%ultivating the soil, but
to earn them a profit as we'll. The
boys and girls have been permitted to
market their products ut the local pub
lie market, a section being reserved
for their use only. and keep the pro-
ceeds for their own individual needs.
Almost every variety Of flower and
vegetable has been grown by the pu-
pills of the various school districts.
Many of the children have taken prac-
teal advantage from the lesson learn
ed at school and have started gardens

Household Hints.

Every cellar should be aired and sun-
ned often.
Use paper bags for covering pitchers
with food in them.
When you paste labels on glass jars
that are used for spices or cereals put
the labels on the inside. They will stay
more securely.
To put a new wick in any lamp burn
er quickly thread a needle first, run the
thread across the wick and pass needle
through burner.
Use no soap on window glass. Use
old muslin and clean soft water. A
cotton cloth dipped in a little alcohol
will add brilliancy to the final rub.
