A powder house is no place for an

thing which no amount of diligence

the plants reeling and stupefied, while
one serious accident recently was
caused because a fumefuddled work

"A weird nervous disorder that

STUDY THE CATALOGUES
BY LIMA r. ROSE.

When looking over the catalogues
which come to us for the asking we
are often delighted into covetousness
by the description of shrubs, vines and
perennials, but the price asked, al
though merely nominal, place the for
lists plants beyond our reach.
In that case. we have but to give
little time and patience to sowing
seeds and caring for the delicate
plants in order to have our longings
gratified. The first thing to do is to
send our order to a reliable firm. The
next is to give intelligent care to their
planting and growing.
Seeds of most of the desirable or
namental vines, shrubs, biennials and
perennials germinate readily. while
others are slow in sprouting, but If
planted in good soil and allowed time
the reward is sure.
We should inform ourselves on these
subjects as much as possible before
undertaking the work
During February and March is usu-
ally the time selected for getting our
window boxes in shape, and in these
boxes may be planted the seeds, to-
gether with many bulbous and tuber
Gus rooted varieties of plants. The
seeds may be had in mixed packages
for ten cents each. or single.
Do not overlook the orchid when
planning next years flowers.
These seeds may be purchased by
one person, the plants raised to trans
planting size and sold for few cents
each to others, thus covering cost of
seeds and care, or several may throw
in and divide the seeds when they
come.
The former plan may be, the more
economical, as not everyone makes a
success of growing plants from seeds.
It is not always wen to buy your
seeds of your country merchant; your
merchant may be honest, but his mer-
chant may not be. Send to reliable
firm, send early and get what you pay
for. Do not confine yourself to an
nuals, but SOW the perennial seeds
and after the first year you will have
little trouble.
Nothing adds to the attractiveness
of home place more than thrifty
vines, and for most places, perennial
vines are best. For temporary screens,
annual vines will do. Seeds should
be started indoors early and trans
planted frequently in order to make
the plants stalky, and as soon as the
ground gets warm they may be set out
where they are to remain.
Many of these will grow but little
at the top for the first year. but will
be making root growth and be getting
ready to make to progress afterwards
Some of the shrubs and perennials
and even the biennials may give a
scant bloom the first year, and some
may wait for the first Towering for
the third year.
| If these are transplanted to the veg
etable garden, which is, or should be
protected from the poultry and ant
mails, and allowed to grow undisturbed
for the first season, much will be
gained. They can then be set where
they are to remain, either next fall OF
the coming spring, early enough to
get a good start in growth, before hot
dry weather comes.
For those who have nothing startei
and little money to buy with. the 'col
lections" sent out by florists are full
of promise. Many of our best seed

BY WILLIAM A. RApPoRp.

Mr. William A Radford will answe-
questions and give advice FREE OF
COST on all subjects pertaining to tho
subject of building, for the readers of this
paper. On account of his wide experience
as Editor, Author and Manufacturer, he
is, without doubt, the highest authority
on all these subjects Address all inquiries

The porch is the greatest factor in
determining the impression that a per-
son receives from a house An at
tractive and cozy porch will always
help in making any house more pleas
ant. Porches can be built in many
ways SO as to fit in with the general
scheme of the house design. Some
times they are set back under the
main roof, which gives the built-in eff
feet. Other times they are detached
from the house proper and built under
a separate roof, which of course con.
meets up with the main roof of the
house.
In the design shown here the porch
is built under separate roof, but it is
built SO low that it gives the built-in
effect just as If it were under the
house roof. The square, white pillars
combined with the low roof and the

by four windows in the living room
and two wide ones in the dining room.
A seat can be built into the square
bay in the living room if desired. Built
in seats are found now in nearly every
house, and are an exceedingly pleasant
feature. Almost any built-in seat will
add to the coziness of room.
In the dining room is q built-in buf-
fet that is placed under the two win
dows on the side. This buffet extends
completely along the wall and conse-
quently contains plenty of room for
china, silver, or any of the many
things that are used in the dining
room.
Storage space is often at premium
in small houses and the closets be-
come filed UP because there is no 9TH
er place to keep things that are not
in actual use all the time. Even in
the best-regulated families there are
always many things around that no
body is using but they are kept be-
cause they may be of service some
day They will probably never be used
but they are always kept, anyway.
Plenty of storage space is provided in
this plan in the attic. This extensive
space is reached by stairs through the
dining room. In addition to the room
in the attic there are plenty of closets,
including one in each bedroom, one in
the bathroom, one in the back hall,
and one in the reception hall.
The compact kitchen is of the type
that is so popular among housewives.
Everyone has heard people remark
about the wonderful large kitchen in
some house. If they had to work in
that wonderful large kitchen for a
while they would stop calling it won

men advertise this collection at a very
low cost to the customer, as trial or
ders, hoping to keep the customer by
sending out good seeds and plants
See that you get the trial collection
of a reliable firm; otherwise it is
money thrown away.
Study the catalogues, especially the
directions for preparing soil and plant
ing seeds. A good floral magazine is
worth taking and they come now at a
very low cost
When your plants come up, refer to
the description and magazine and give
them the botanical name; it is Just as
easy as using nickname
Do not try to raise fruits, flowers,
or vegetables in happy-go-lucky
style; give time and thought to the
planting, placing and after culture, If
you would reap worthy reward
You must pay price for everything
worth having, whether the price be
money or intelligent care.

E. Berry Wall at one time was con-

said to carry off the sartorial palm.
He has SO many suits he cannot count

this effete day calls for a budget of
at least $4,000 a year for clothes
alone. Just little group of Ameri-

Cazalet was not in; his friend would
wait and in fact waited over an hour

was offered to him; he took it listless-

Cazalet His exuberant geniality had
been dashed very visibly for the mo-

were reasserting themselves; indeed,
a cynic with an ear might have caught
the note of sudden consolation in the
question that Cazalet asked SO briskly

Toye. watching the effect of his
words.
