PLAN FOR BEAUTY IN GROUNDS
By L. M. BENNINGTON.

The beauty which is near at hand is often neglected while we prize that which is denied us-we refer to the beauty and desirahility of the Celas- trus, or bitter sweet vine This native climber, found in our woods and along our fences. is one of the most satis- factory vines that can be grown about the home.
 It is IS hardy as granite, quick grower, twining securely about it's sup port and it is not liable to disease. In the fall. when flowers are scarce, 1t covers itself with clusters of orange colored fruit. which the frost opens, revealing it's crimson seeds.
 Choose dark. rainy day if possible. for the transplanting, otherwise do this work at SaaSet=We mean in trans planting seedlings. Water the seed bed thoroughly q short time before you begin to transplant. then lift the hold, and remove to the permanent bed
 Keep the seedlings covered with q wet cloth. so that the heat and wind will not dry them. With sharp-point- ed stick make the hole for the plant and then fill it with water Plant the seeding in this puddle drawing the dark soil about the stalk when the ground has Heeh firmed about the plant as much as possible
 A miniature water garden is practi- cal and will prove most interesting. needing less attention than a flower bed its size Have q sugar or vinegar barrel cut in two. or use wooden tub. Sink this in the soil Make a potting box about twelve inches square and fill with rich mud from q pond. or use half rich loam, adding to the mud or loam about one-third of well-rotted manure

Russia,s Natural. Roads.

Ru. sia is almost Il roadless land. It is inco 1ceivable to the foreign visitor who has never left the beaten track of the railways in Russia haw great am pirc can ha Q subsisted so long and so successfully -ithout even pretense at roads The SC ret lies in the fact that for five or six L'onths in the year na- rure herself prov ides roads over the greater part of Russia-admirable smooth. glossy roao ways over hard worn snow.
 The traffic k further .heapened over these roads by the subs itution of a sledge-runner for the Whe, and axle. This brings the cost of lan,' carriage as near the cheapness of wal er-borne freight as possible and it is the orinci- pal reason why Russia in the tvea tietb century is still a roadless land.

SOME NOTES IN SEASON

Prune Towering shrubs as soon as they have finished Towering. The se- cret of pruning shrubbery, in a nut she'll is 10 study the habit of growth of each plant. and to strive to encour- age it; not alter it to your views.
 Make Il note of the yellow spots on the lawn. If the grass is scanty, the trouble is probably sand or poor soil. The best cure is to dig out the place, and put in some good loam.
 Then resod the place If the grass is there, but dead. the trouble is lack of moisture.
 If the grass on the lawn is growing fast, two mowings week, allowing the clippings to lie where they fall, is easier than one moving in ten days or two weeks. followed by q raking to remove the cut grass.
 Gravel roads and walks that refuse to get solid can be greatly improved by the judicious use of clay. Pulver- ize the latter. and sprinkle evenly Too much clay will make a sticky road in wet weather. which is far worse than a soft gravel road
 To insure thick privet hedge, cut back three inches every time the plants make six inches of growth.
 Evergreens from the nursery can be safely transplanted by the end of July. It is important to keep the roots moist, with as much soil adhering as DOS Sible.
