THE VALUE OF PRETTY LAWNS
Make Plans Now to Beauty Grounds
Around Your Home in Spring
Peruola Very Ornamental.

Landscape gardening and architecture
must properly include all forms of dec
grafton that will increase the attrac-
tiveness Of the lawn, and such as will
add at the same time monetary value
to the home. 1t is not desired to have
simply pretty lawn, but one that will
enhance the value of the property it
self, says House and Garden.
There are many things that will ma
terially increase the value Of the lawn
from an artistic standpoint. Among
these may be mentioned the pergola 1t
is one of the newer forms Of lawn dec
grafton in this country, but deserves
encouragement on the part Of the real
home lovers, whose desire is to add to
the home plan.
One should understand, however, that
the pergola is not simply decoration.
1t possesses useful features in addition
to It's attraction as an ornament, and
wherever erected increases the charm
of the setting.
1t serves as bower, retreat, and
nook. 1t may be covered with vines,
and serve as a refuge from inclement
weather. Frequently it leads off into
the lawn and sometimes to the garage,
or terminates at a pond or miniature
garden. At other times it will serve as
a bridge, with columns at either end,
in this way spanning an otherwise
open ravine and adding to the archi-
tectural effects of the home. In coun-
try homes it has a special place, be-
cause of the expanse that many of the
country abodes possess, thereby MAX
ing its necessity more keenly felt.
Thus we see that the pergola is in
reality useful ornament, and one that
Is finding more general favor as home
builders come to realize its need. 1t
should be given a fair share of the
construction mans consideration. The
study of the varying materials with
which 1t is built and the effects Of the
different types of architectural varia-
tons are widespread. It's very popu-
larity has been the fundamental rea-
son why there are today larger
number of the structural materials
used in its manufacture.

BEAUTY VALUABLE IN ITSELF
When You Plant Shrubs Around Your
Home Remember Some Are Use
full and Ornamental, Too.

A very practical writer in popu-
lar magazine recently condemned the
American custom of planting purely or
namental trees and shrubs. Such
things, he contended. performed no
useful work, and ought to be discard
ed. The redbud and Towering almonds
should give place to cherry and peach
trees; and roses and spireas, presuma-
bly,, should make way for currants and
gooseberrfes. Only thus could we have
garden scheme worthy of practical
people.
There are elements of truth in such
a doctrine. Too many people fail to
recognize tie beauty inherent in plants,
trees and shrubs cultivated for food
In cherry tree orchard, In field
of blossoming clover CT ripeEing wheat.
But the central idea CT this practi-
cal creature is false altogether, for
he fails to recognize that beauty is
worth while In ana OF itself, and needs
no Endorsement from either stomach
or pocketbook. AIchammed knew what
he was about when he uttered his fa-
nous advice: HE that hath two
loaves of bread, let him sell one and
buy narcissus; for bread Is food only

WE WANT REAL HOMES AGAIN
Americans More and More Understand
Value of Having Residence With
Some Land Around 1t.

We are today, for the second time in
America, reaching the homestead pc
Rod. We had 1t back in the old colo
NAL days, when we built substantially.
Then came the second generation of
our foreign-born population and their
spirit was expressed in elaborate and
futile limitations of homes unsldted
to American lives.
More leisure has come to us, a more
settled spirit of patriotism that breeds
sympathy with all national achieve
ment, and the time Low seems ripe
for the building of homes suited to the
American spirit, substantial, comfort
able, facing the servant problem frank
ly, realizing a growing interest in beau
ty expressing, too, the keynote Of our
civilization - individually, says the
Craftsman.
Because we are demanding homes Of
the type that we want to live In, home
building has become the most absorb
Ing topic of this generation. Whereas
even few years ago the difficulty was
to keep the country boy and girl In
any way attached to the land, the city
holding the lure that unbalanced all
youth, today the world is reaching
back to home life, gardening, farming;
you find boys who work in the city tell
ing you frankly that they travel many
miles day rather than give up coun-
try life. You find young women plan
ming from the day of their marriage to
have a home of their own, built to
their needs, furnished as they like it.

walk; 1t is the actual odor of antiquity,
a finest dust in suspension in the
wind, the dust of decay from past
ages. All that dies in Egypt becomes
dry, and only after centuries turns
to dust and loses form. That which
rots away in year in our northern
cline keeps its semblance for thou
sand years in Egypt The stones of
the houses of native Cairo were many
of them quarried by the ancients; the
wooden beams and joists have lasted
from the days of the Pharaohs, and
only now are gently crumbling. Here
the very stones can be used to manure
the fields. Subtly, secretly, the sew
enth foundation is always crumbling
away and passing in dust into the
desert air. The smell in the air is
partly the fine dust of mummies, of
the bodies that were once erect and
nervous and vivid. gay and felicitous
and moving, the mysterious fiocking
humans of thousands Of years ago.

broad sun-swept roadways crash the
