raniums are also effective. The YER
benas, candytuft and sweet alyssum
are good for borders The hollyhocks
and dahlies go wen against fence.
Too frequently the old fashioned per
ennials are neglected. They are pleas
ing and attractive when seen In long
rows against the garden fence. These
plants run In various colors, thus max
ing It possible to choose any effect de
sired.
The aster Is one of the most satisfac
tory of all the annual Towering plants
The great variety in its size. color.
form and season Of blooming makes it
a most satisfactory plant for supplying
cut flowers. These can be grown to
good advantage for selling and find a
ready market In most places. In fact
the woman or girl who wishes to earn
extra money can well afford to study
and experiment along this line of sell
ing some OF the old fashioned flowers
and those that grow In the outdoor
garden. In the past the dollhouse prod
ucts have been made the chief selling
flowers. These are bought chiefly by
the wealthy class and as q rule are too
expensive for the middle class, yet
they, too, appreciate flowers. There
are big opportunities for the farm wo-
man or girl in building up a flower
business along this Line that will prove
very profitable.
Every flower garden should have
mignonette. The seed can be sown
at any time, and If successive plant
ings are made its fragrant flowers may
be gathered until frost comes.
No other annual will produce such a
profusion of flowers for so long a time
with the SANG outlay Of time and la
Dor as the nasturtium. 1t is good also
for borders In front Of vines or shrubs.
No one can afford to be without the
SALIVA. Its glowing red flower Is as
snowy as the poppy. This must be
started early In the house, or one can
buy the small plants from a florist
The best two varieties are the Bonfire
and the Splendens.
Petunias are effective for borders and
for cut flowers. The flower garden
needs planning in the arrangement of
plants and colors to bring out the best
effect. Many old and unsightly spots
and buildings can be hidden from view
with various flowers. For instance, an
unsightly stump can be followed out,
filed with rich soil, and If nasturtiums
are planted in it 1t will be a thing of
beauty until frost kills the plants.
Morning glories can be made to Irvine
around stump that b too tall to hol-
low out. Ferns can be gathered from
the woods and cultivated for buyers.
An such work pays well.

The R,oht Road.

Young man, you are locomotive;
you are a thing that goes by power
inside Of you; you are made to go. In
fact, considered as machine, you are
very far superior to locomotive. The
maker Of locomotive is man; your
maker Is mans Meker. You are as
different from horse or an OK or a
camel as q locomotive Is different from
a wheelbarrow or cart or a coach.
Now, DO you suppose that the being
who made you-manufactured your
machine and put into 1t the motive
power-did not make a special road
for you to run upon? My idea Of re-
ngion Is that it Is a railroad Tor hu-
man locomotive and that just as sure
as it undertakes to run upon road
adapted only to animal power it will
bury its wheels in the sand, dash itself
among rocks and come to inevitable
wreck. G. Holland.
