VALUE OF HOME GARDENS
Distinctly Educational, Apart From the Pleasure Derived From the
 Work of Cultivation.

There are various angles from which to praise the home garden work in which 15000 Washington children en. gagged this spring. 1t helps make for a city beautiful; the childrens waste time is employed; thrift is developed.
 But one of the chief benefits is educational. This gardening teaches things that cannot be learned inside a classroom The youth gets the joy of seeing things grow He acquires q capital eounterirritant for the sup posedly artificial atmosphere of the apartment house. He gets in touch with the laws of nature, the pulse of living things. the great creative forces. He works in good. wholesome dirt. He learns something of where his food comes from. He loses the illusion Of the tin can, dramatically sealed, germ proof, wax paper school of household economy.
 We must live in cities, and living in them does not bring half the evils that the "back to the farm" adyo. cates would have us believe. But We make our cities difficult to live ill by not doing the things that these chil. dren are doing-keeping our feet on the ground, and keeping in touch with Mother Earth.

GARDEN FOR EVERY HOME
Two Hundred Workmen's Cottages Erected in London Suburb Are
 So Planned.

Two hundred and four cottage resi- dences in agreeable contrast with the ordinary working class home have been erected at West Ham, a suburb of London, says the Telegraph of that city The houses, which are built ln blocks of two or more, have bright and artistic frontages of various designs with tiled roofs. Each cottage has a garden at the rear, and there is a small front garden, except where the house faces one of the grass covered open spaces for which provision has been made. The forecourts are paved back and front All the roads on the estate are 40 feet in width, and the distance between each group of houses is such as to insure ample light ana air.
 Fifty of the houses are three-roomed with scullery; 124 four-roomed and 30 fve-roomed. Rents. inclusive of rates and taxes, are 6 shillings pence, 5 shillings pence and 12 shillings week for the respective types. Each house is provided with a bath, copper, cooking range, gas lighting and indoor lavatory. Wardrobe cupboards are supplied to each bedroom, and there are meat safes, with outside ventila- tion, on the ground floor. No effort has been spared to render the interior of the buildings commodious and as cheerful as their external surround ingS.

FOR IDEAL CLUB SANDWICH
Hostess Will Find Luncheon Deiicaey Easy to Prepare If She Will Fol
 tow These Instructions

The club sandwich forms an iAeal quick luncheon, with cup of ehaeo- late or tea. It is a delicious after theater tidbit. Moreover, it is easy to make in the dining room, with the aid of a chafing dish and electric toaster. Ii has so many varieties that 1t can be served frequently without be- coming monotonous.
 To begin with. its foundation is a slice of hot buttered toast Ut the bot tom and another at the top. Between these two slices there must be lettuce and mayonnaise and boiled or fried bacon. Besides these ingredients many other things can be used.
 Perhaps what one may call the con ventional club sandwich contains on the foundation slice of toast a crisp piece of lettuce, spoonful of thick maYonnaise d slice of chicken breast, two crisp slices of bacon. slice of tomato, more lettuce and mayonnaise, and the cover of toast
 Instead of the tomato a slice of tO- meto jelly may be used, or some shreds of sweet green or red pepper. or three slices of cucumber or sliced sweet gherkins or sliced stuffed olives may be used.
 Or else over the toast may be spread a mixture of chopped celery and may onnaise or chopped sweet pepper and maXonnatse or chopped olives and may onnaiSe.
 Instead of the chicken one may use sliced tongue or sliced veal or sliced lamb.
 thin silver of broiled boiled ham may be substituted for the bacon.
 Fish pastes may also be used in- stead of the chicken. with or without the bacon Sardnes, bened and skin ned and rubbed to q paste with mayon- naise. are good.
 The lower slice of toast may be spread with thin coating of pate de foie graS, then the chicken, bacon and mayennaise can be added. then lettuce, and the top slice of toast-with or without the slice of tomato.

gooseberrieS. An examination of such bushes in the vicinity of white pine is, therefore, essential in aseertaining the extent of the disease and the probabil- ity of further infection.
 From June 1 till the time the leaves fall. the bushes should be searched for the mealy yellow masses which, hardly larger than pinhead, may yet be so abundant as to cover large part of the lower surface of the leaf. Later in the fall the lower surface of the leaf is also marked by short, hairy out groWths.
 It is known that the rust was brought into this country in nursery stock from Europe. Trees grown from such i'm ported stock, therefore, are much more likely to be infected than those raised from seed in this country, for the rust is not transmitted i'll seed, but in nurs- cry stock only. Owners of planted trees, therefore, are urged to inyesti- gate the history of their trees even when they show no evidence of infec- ton. If it cannot be proved that the trees were grown from seed in this country, they should he watched close ly and continually for dead tops and side branches. If there is any reason to suspect the existence of the rust, arrangements can be made with the department of agriculture at Washing ton for an inspection by experts. This inspection is regarded as a most nee essary measure for the protection not only of the owner of the individual stand in question but for the protection of every owner of white pine in the neighborhood. The destruction of in feeted stock is imperative if the spread of the disease is to be checked.
 Another preeaution urged in the bull letin already mentioned is the require ment, in purchasing trees, of guaran- ty that they have been raised under conditions which effeetually have safe guarded them from danger.

Be Sure to Plant Some Vines.

Morning glories, cypress vines. sweetpeas, gourds, nasturtiums, Japa. nese hops, wild cucumber, hyacinth bean are among our most desirable annual climbers. Seeds of them dc not cost much, and q package of one or the other will yield shade, beauty and grace.
 The sides of a steep terrace or bank may be transformed into thing of beauty by planting trailers along it's top. Rosa Wichuraiana, the memori al rose, and it's hybrids, are desirable for this purpose. It produces pro fusion of long wreaths of small. thick. ly-set leaves, that look as though they were vanished. In June it literally covers itself with large, white single roses.
 The Virginia creeper honeysuckle nasturtiums and moon vines are trail CTS rather than climbers. Of garden plants the sweet potato and the dew. berry are genteel enough to be grown as trailers. They give edibles instead of flowers.

HAVE SYSTEM IN KITCHEN
Writer Tells Of Scheme by Which She Has Lessened Work-Cleaning the
 oven Shelves.

I have a great deal of baking to do on cooking day, but find that much time can he saved by making my bread first While the bread is baking I make pie crust. I then set the pie crust aside and make my cake, and then finish the pies. While the cake and pies are baking l make my dough- nuts. Consequently. while the dough nuts are frying my pies and cakes are baking with the result that all my days cooking is finished at one time.
 Oven shelves should be regularly re- moved from the oven or gas stove and scraped with m old blunt knife. Rub them with paper and wash thoroughly with fairly hot, strong soda water be- fore they are put back Into the oven or stove to odry-Delineator.
