BASKETS FOR THE vERANpA
HANDING Blossoms or Clusters Of
oreon May Be Employed to Beau
tIfy Front Of House.

Have you ever tried to have hanging
baskets of greenery and flowers on
the verarda OF in the summer living
room? They are charming and they
are not very difficult to keep In order.
II the flowers do die they can be re-
plenished with new ones, so that you
can always keep a hanging bit Of love
illness In sight.
First as to the choice Of baskets.
A porous sort is best. and perhaps the
wire ones are best Of all. Line the
basket with moss.
AS for the soil, a mixture OF leaf
mold and wood loan or rich garden
loan is good. This soil must be en-.
riched with fertilizer dissolved from
time to time in the water with which
II is moistened. The best way to water
these baskets is to sink them In q
tub Of water and leave them there
until they are wet through. II the
vines and leaves hang in the water
suspend them from a peg or bar above
the tub.
Hang the basket where It will not
be constantly subjected to wind, which
dries out the soil. and don't let 1t have
much sunlight-just enough to keep
the soil sweet.
When the soil appears to have lost
some of its richness place some ma
nure in the water in which the basket
is immersed several hours before the
watering time. Or use a little bone
meal-not too much-for a too-strone
fertilizer might burn the roots and
foliage. You will have to experiment
a little about the amount and kind Of
enriching to do.
AS for the plants to have, any kind
of ivy ought to thrive in a basket and
its lovely green makes 1t especially de
sirable. Dusty miller and wandering
jew are two reliable plants that will
thrive under almost any conditions
and they make charming background
for Towering plants. Oxalis makes g
pretty Towering plant to put in the
basket, and ivy geranium is another
Any kind of geranium can be used, and
fuchsias and strawberries are also sat
isfactory for the boxes. Ferns of vari
Gus sorts can be used.
There is a new self-watering iron
hanging basket, which needs watering
only once a week and which does moi
drip, as 1t must be-admitted the wire
baskets do. OF course, this iron bas
ket could be placed in a Japanese
wicker basket If the iron did not har
monize with its surroundings.

THREE VARIETIES OF BREAD
Each Has Its Distinct Value, and tho
Point Is One For Individual
Consideration.

1t is well to know something of the
bread-white, wholemeal and brown
to aid~the matter of choice in individ.
ual cases. White bread is made of the
inside of the wheat; it Is practically
all starch, with small amount of pro
ted, much of that contained in the
grain being removed in the outer shell.
White bread is, therefore, less valu.
able for building up the body and
system, but at the same time is the
most digestible of the three varieties,
Wholemeal bread, in contradistinc.
ton, contains the whole grain, after
the husk has been removed; 1t is
therefore richer in proteid than the
white variety, and where digestion
need not be considered may be looked
upon as the best kind for the ordinary
diet of those in normal health.
Brown bread completes the list, and
contains not only the whole grain, but
also the husk of bran; this has no
nutritive value, but is very good in
providing a suficiency Of bulk, a point
apt to be overlooked by those who
consider food from the scientific stand.
point, and also of real importance
where growing boys and girls are con-
cerned The bran or husk present
also sets up a healthful mechanical
irritation OF the bowels, and so is very
useful in cases of chronic constipation,
which are also helped by the bull1inesF

Automobiles Collide.


 E About 1.30 o'clock Friday afternoon two automobile trucks collfded on Main street at the entrance to the Turner stable. One of the trucks belongs to and was driven by Hyman Chasen, who is now being sued for damages received when his car hit the mail wagon some time ago. The other be- longs to a local furniture concern. The former was coming out of the driveway to the stable and the latter was going up Main street or the Tight side of the street when the collision occurred. Chasen's car was struck near one of the rear wheels and suffered some damage, as did the other car. Each man stated that the other was to blame for the affair and reported it to the police, who decided that as the driveway is a private way it was out of their jurisdiction.
 It was leaaned that the furniture concern was willing to let the matter drop and botE parties fix their ma chimes, but Chasen could not see where he was to blame and wanted damages. It is not known what will be done in the matter, but Chasen was told to see the prosecuting attorney and get his opinion of the affair.

Moving Picture Men Will Visit Thread . City-LoeaI People to Appear in the
 Cast. ...... .-

Two men representing a large film company are in this city making preparations for the taking of a nov ing picture of local scenes and Of To- cal characters. These men, who are in no way connected with the com pany that features a like film some time ago. intend to visit the sur rounding towns and make pictures of the most interestoing parts of those towns. In connection with the picture the men are to visit the local theatres where pictures will be taken of the audiences and it is hoped that a pie ture can be made of a dance which is to take place in the near future. A popular local girl has been suggested to these men for the part of leading lady of the picture but as yet the young lady has not been spoken to about the matter so her name is with held from the papers. Work on the picture will in all probability start on Monday and continue for at least three weeks during which time all of the interesting happenings in the city will be pictured.
