HANDLE TREES WITH CARE
Bv w. r. GILBERT.


To my mind, there is not half enough
attention paid to the way trees are
put into the hole when planting. Some
people think that because trees have
roots they should grow nearly on top
of every ditch in the country.
For ten years planted trees yearly.
Half the trees l planted the first year
failed because l didn't know how to
plant properly. l said to myself there
was something wrong somewhere,
either in the trees or in my want of
knowing how to plant.
l experimental couple of years
and found out the secret of my failure
Half of the young trees are nearly use
less for planting, on account of the
way that they are pulled at the
nurseries.
Some men, when they go pulling
trees in the nurseries, pull away just
as though they were pulling turnips in
hurry, slapping the roots together
and throwing them away as if they
were no more than rotten limbs.
Young trees, to my mind, should be
handled as carefully as eggs. They
should be dug out of the ground.
When the roots are strained in the
pulling they grow the first year badly
and then die away. l examined the
roots of a dozen young trees; there
were two strained, and l cut the roots
short in two more, for experiment.

A young doctor recently took his best
girl to the opera. The curtain was late

planned OF feeling faint. The doctor
smiled sweetly upon her, and took
something out of his vest pocket.
"Here," he whispered, keep this In
your mouth. Don't swallow It,"
Shyly the girl placed the object upon
her tongue and rolled 1t over and over,
but It would not dissolve. She felt
better, however. So she took the tab
let from her mouth, and slipped 1t In
her glove, as she was curious to ex-
anime, when she got once more into
the light, this tasteless little sub
stance that had given her such relief.
When the happy couple were once
more outside the operahouse the girl
stopped under large lamp.
"That thing you gave me made me
feel ever so much better" she cooed,
gratefully, wrestling with her glove.
Suddenly she bent over something
white and round in her palm. She
looked up at his face.
'Dud-dud-Dick r. she stammered, in
a choking voice, "why, it's nothing but

CAUSED EMPEROR TO WEEP
This Is the Regiment, Sire" Replied
Leader of Remnant of Brave
Regiment.

German travellers are relating the
following story, which is going the
rounds of the German empire. En-
peror William recently expressed the
desire to inspect a regiment which had
particularly distinguished itself at
Verdun, and ordered it to be drawn up
outside his headquarters in the neigh
borhOod of the French fortress on the
following morning. The same day the
regiment participated in another .furi-
Gus encOuter, which wrought terrible
havoc in it's ranks, and when next
morning the kaiser stepped forward to
inspect the regiment he only found a
small band of 80 haggard soldiers sa-
luting him.
But where is the regiment?" de-
manded the emperor, in surprise, with
out for moment realizing the posi-
ton.
''This is the regiment, sire" the COM
manding officer replied.
At this the emperor broke down and
wept like child, and the inspection
of the regiment was postponed.

FLOWER HINTS FOR BEGINNER
Rv e VAN RENTHUYsEN.


Flowers should have friable, very
fertile soil in which to grow. Often
they will make a fine showing in very
poor soil, but like humans they ap-
preciate good care.
Do not allow the flowers to form
seeds. AS soon as the flowers begin
to fade, pinch them off; your flowers
will keep in bloom much RDnger and
the blooms will be larger if you pay
attention to this little detail. Pansies
and sweet peas particularly require
looking after.
Use your flowers in borders and
around the sides of your lawn. Never
make flower beds in the center of
your lawn. A bit of green turf well
cared for is an asset to any home
grounds.
If you want soft, thick turf on
your lawn NOV it often and let the
clippings lie where they fall. This
keeps the soil from drying out too
much and helps fertilize it as it de-
Gays.
Support sweet peas on a hedge OF
brush. Ih1S is better than poultry
netting, as the sun does not heat it
and burn the tender tendrils of the
clinging sweet pea.
Plant your shade trees far enough
away from the house to allow the all
to circulate around the house. Sun
shine in the home is a tonic and care
should be exercised when planting
that trees do not interfere or shade the
windows too much.
Do not plant your flowers too close
| together Give them all chance fol
life. Pansies should be planted ter
inches apart; Petunias and Verbenas
at least 18 inches apart; Marigolds
two feet; Poppies, 10 inches; Zinnias
18 inches, and Phlox, a foot. Flow
ers will not be plentiful or thrifty Il
grown too close together

the ones that 1 cut little of the roots

The roots, when planting, should be

Where some, or most people, perhaps
make the mistake is in sticking the
