Young Lady Would
Not Waste Kisses

A critical young lady was re-
Gently heard expatiating vigor-
ously against the silly way that
women have kissing each other
every time they get together.
She said: IF twenty women
were to meet in the street, every
last one of them would have to
kiss the other nineteen, and
there would be-let me see $50
kisses worse than thrown away,
for probably in ten minutes the
whole party would separate into
squads and go off talking about
each other. When you see one
of these violent miscellaneous,
kiss-every-thing-in-sight kind of
a woman, it is safe to set her
down as a fraud, which she gen.
orally is. If I had my way,
kissing should be confined to
family uses and for medical pur-
poses. Now don't you put my
name to this or l will kiss you
right on Market street the first
chance have"

A MONEY CROP

Growing strawberries 10 pro-
fitable industry. 1t is a money
crop. In this climate it is the
first crop of the year upon the
market and hence brings money
into the community at a time
when ready money is needed.
Last season the berry growers
of Portland, as shown in a news
story elsewhere in this issue,
marketed 80 acres of berries for
which they realized a net sum of
5000 per acre. This spring they
planted a total of $50 acres which,
with a reasonable yield next
spring, should net them $50. 900.
1t is to be regretted that in the
section around Gallatin the berry
acreage has decreased within the
last few years. So easy to raise
corn, wheat and oats here that
farmers will not take the trouble
to raise small fruits and berries
which, though requiring some
what more care, are also more
profitable.
The berry crop gives employ
ment during May and early June
to an average of twelve persons to
the acre as pickers which, too, is
of a large profit to merchants
and other business men of the
community. Summer County

to bear continued use and service. A
room to the house-an OUT doors liv-
ing room. Keep off the grass" signs
are denominations and usually are a
confession on the gardeners part of
his inability to produce good, serv-
iceable lawn sod
There are least two dozen kinds of
grasses used in different sections of
the country for lawn use, but the
well known Kentucky blue grass best
fulfills the requirements. It's seeds
form the basis of all seed mixtures
used. While it makes a strong: per per
manent turf, it does not attain ITS
proper development until the third
year after sowing. For this reason 1t Is
not frequently used alone
For the average yard mixture OF
grass seeds is best as some varieties
NAV be included that mature earlier
and so give a good green sward the
first and second season. The blue
grass will eventually take possession
of the plot, but while it is getting es-
grasses will crowd out the weeds and
give the owner fine lawn to enjoy
from the start.
The seeds most frequently used in
lawn seed mixtures are: Englsh rye
(for immediate effect. Creeping Bent
(sandy soils. Red Top tight soils).
White Glover collage value and pro-
lection to young grasses). Red Rescue
(poor soil and dry places). Canadian
Blue Grass teravelly land and for
shaded. Rhode Island Bent dow grow
ing and for sandy soils.
A favorite combination contains this
proportion: Kentucky Blue. twelve
pounds: Red Top. five pounds: English
Rye, three pounds; White Glover may
be sown afterward if desired. This
seed should not be mixed with the
other lighter seeds. but should be sown
separately to nave it evenly distrb-
uted.
The only real safeguard the unin-
formed buyer has in purchasing lawn
seed is to deal with some reputable
firm who he knows cannot afford to
mislead him. There are hundreds of
cheap seed mixtures on the market and
the man who looks only at the price
tag will surely suffer in his lawn re-
suits. Cheap seed means uncleaned
seed full of dirt and chaff and of low
weight per bushel Never buy a mix
ture weighing less than twenty pounds
to the bushel or one whose germinat
ing percentage is not tested and guar
anteed. First class. recleaned seed is
what you want and s. bushel of
twenty pounds is not too much to pay
for it.

Sowing Lawn Seed.

Lawn grass seed is sown broadcas st
and distributed IS evenly as possible
over the ground at the rate of one pound
of seed for every 200 square feet of
ground surface. This gives good,
thick seeding which is advantageous in
not allowing the weeds to get a foot
hold. A more even distribution of the
seed is obtained by going over the plot
twice, using one-half the quantity of
seed each time and making the tracks
of the second seeding at right angles
with the first. A quiet day should, of
course, be selected for the seeding, as
a heavy wind would carry the light
possible. Immediately after the seed
is sown the entire area should be light
ly raked so as to just cover the seed.
After seeding the ground should be
rolled. This is done with a lawn roller
weighing at least 300 pounds-400 is
better-and insures the surface being
made compact and the seeds brought
into close contact with the soil parti-
cles. BY firming the soil we help the
seed termination and SO take the first
precaution in obtaining good stand
of grass.
Rolling also is of real benefit to the
lawn after its establishment. During
the spring the alternate freezing and
thawing of the ground causes a loos
ening and heaving movement of the
surface. This disturbs and breaks loose
the grass roots, and an early rolling
will compact and firm the soil back
into it's place again. For the best eff
fects the rolling should be continued
throughout the entire season, as it is
hardly possible to make the lawn sur
| face too compact
