WATCH FOR WEEDS
For Galtlen-Careful Planting is
The Best.

/ Seed time is also weed time, so
that before planting any flower seed
! the ground must be thoroughly pre-
pared.
1t is not sufficient merely to
scratch the top soil a little and then
scatter the seed The bed should be
dug to the depth of spade blade,
the elods broken and the surface
must be as fine as it possibly can be
made. Dandelions, dock and other
rank weeds have fashion of striking
their roots deep, and unless they are
completely dug out they will give no
end of trouble by constantly sprout-
! ing and crowding out the tender
seedlings.
/ After the seed has been sown they
should be covered with a sprinkling
of earth and watered carefully, fin
ishing the process by pressing firm
ly with a perfectly fiat board. Coarse
seed such as Zinnias, cosmos, asters
and lady slippers should be covered
to about four times their thickness.
The finer kinds, such as petunias and
mignonette, must be covered very
lightly.
Sweet peas and hyacinth beans
should be planted where they are to
remain, and support, preferably
chickenwire of wide mesh, should be
supplied for the vines when the seed
are planted. The dwarf nasturtiums
are for borders.
All flowers love the full sunshine
and it is we'll to remember in plant
), ing them that the best results may be
gained by massed effects.

bridge Branch-Will Largely Ex-
tend Its Business Here.

The Liberty Manufacturing Com
pany. of Baltimore, which opened a
branch factory in Cambridge three
years ago, having been induced to do
so through the representations of the
Cambridge Board of Trade, has re-
Gently closed deal whereby it ac-
quires from w. 5. Hoddinott the
property known as the North-Dren-
men Supply Company Building. This
large three-story double store build
ing is located at the corner of Race
and Pleasant streets. having entran-
ces ON both.
The Liberty Manufacturing Co ,af-
ter correspondence with the Cam
bridge Board of Trade.sent a repre-
sentative here about years ago to
consider the advisability of opening
branch factory; this representative
was so fayorably impressed with the
outlook that he made favorable re-
port, and negotiations were immedi-
ately started to secure suitable To-
cation for the business. The second
and third floors of one-half of the
North-Drennen Building were first
leased, and about a year ago the first
floor of the same portion was leased,
but as this failed to give the room
necessary, negotiations were begun
for the purchase of the entire build
ing, and the deal; has been finally
consumated.
1t is reported that the Company
will, as soon as it gets possession of
the entire building. enlarge its me-
chanical equipment so as to largely
increase the local output and will al
so likely transfer a portion of It's
Baltimore business to this point The
cutting department is said to be one
of the branches which will be remov-
ed here, as the management feels
/ that the local site can be very ad-
vantageously and admirably arrang-
/ ed for this purpose,
The Company has been uniformly
/ successful since it first located here
Belief was prevalent at the time il
opened that difficulty would be ex
perienced in securing the help neces
sary to successful operation. blu,
right from the beginning this belize
was dissipated, for the number o.
employees has steadily increased, ant
no better evidence of this could b
found than the fact of the purchase
of property as stated above

At first thought the prices for ad-
mission to see this wonderful photo
play seem unusually steep, but when
one considers the length of time re-
CURED to show it only one show be-
ing possible in an evening, and this
one being of about three hours du-
ration, some idea can be obtained of
the tremendous cost attached to tn
production of such picture. The
average photoplay is shown in thou
sands of theatres, the time required
for the production being from a few
minutes to one or two hours, seldom
longer than this The ability to dis
tribute the cost of production among
thousands of houses makes it pessi-
.
moderate prices; then, too, much of
the scenery used in one production
can be used again in other produc-
| lions. In the case of THE Birth of a
Nation" the situation is entirely diff
ferent. The cost of the production
is said to have exceeded half mil
lion dollars; little if any of the cost
can be transferred to the account of
any other play on account of the
character of the play.
1t depicts the assassination of
President Abraham Lincoln in Ford's
Theatre, in Washington. in detail.
This scenery cannot be used again. 1t
shows the reconstruction of the
South Immediately following the Civ
il War, and the elaborate scenery
used in this depictation of events is
valueless after having been used the
one time. 1t is so throughout the
entire production, and the cost of
the production is so great that it is
not possible to show it in thousands
of theatres, but instead it can only
be shown in the theatres in the larg-
er centers of population, where it is
possible to find enough persons in
tefested in the development of this
great nation of ours to be willing to
spend the money and time necessary
to witness the reproduction of the
most important historical events that
have TRANSFERRED since the declaration
and winning of our independence.
Even though the price of tickets
may seem somewhat high, those who
see this picture tonight. or tomor-
row, and who hear the splendid mu-
sic that accompanies it, will feel that
they have been fully repaid for their
expenditure, even though such ex-
penditure may have seemed a trifle
eStravagant. Besides the entertain
ment and the pleasure, those who see
the picture will have truer and bet
