and rose head the list. Then there
may be added the spirea, carnation,
aquilegia, hollyhock, phlox, Christmas
rose, lily of the valley, achiIlea, hy-'
drangea, honeysuckle, yucca, beside a
multitude Of dahlias and chrysanthe-
NUNS.
Most of the plants are hardy and
easily grown. Add to them the rich
assortment of ANIMALS like candytuft,
sweet alyssum, snap-dragon, aster, ver-
bena, petunia, lobelia and larkspur and
you have stunning collection and one
which has beauty all season.
Suppose that it shades to the most
asters, thence to merge into rich pink.
There is almost an endless variety Of
the pink border, many of the varieties
mentioned above being equally eligible
in this corner. To these may be added
spirea, begonias and gladiolus.
If red border is desired, more eau
ton must be exercised, being careful
that crimson and scarlet. both excel
lent in themselves, do not combine. In
fact, it might be as well to assign two
different spots for these clashing
colOrs.
Among the scarlet blossoms nothing
is more beautiful than saliva, though
there are geraniums, phlox and gladi-
olus to keep it company, after the pro-
cession Of tulips, while wealth of Pc
tunias, hollyhocks and coleus may safe
ly smile across at the cannas and pop
pies from the other side of the garden.
Among the blue flowers there is
rich treat, from the time of the first
scilla and hyacinth until the last aster
has faded; for lavender and purple
are so closely akin to true blue that it
seems necessary to include them in the
list.
The platycodons, canterbury bells,
some of the violets, houstonia, lupine,
iris, aconite, hardy larkspur, aquilegia,
forget-me-nots and veronica are among
the perennials suggested, while in an
nualS there are ageratum, swan river
daisy, bachelors button, pansy, linum
and nemophila.
Note the effect of the different spe-
cies used and gradually weed out the
undesirable forms and improve upon
those found unsatisfactory. AS feature
of landscape gardening the plan has
rich possibilities.
Too much stress cannot be laid upon
neatness in the garden. If faded flow
ers and fallen leaves are allowed to
accumulate, the charm that should
characterize it is gone, and no amount
of bloom can make up for the lack Of
care which is thus made manifest. =,

SCHOOL CHILDREN'S GARDEN

Apportion some little bit of land
for the children in your neighborhood
to have garden.
Vacant lots adjacent to schools are
best for they are near enough for the
children to spend their recess in and
also the 20 or 80 minutes before and
after school. Practical instruction
should be given the children out-of-
doors.
BY securing the children's aid, per-
manent Improvement in the physical
condition of the neighborhood is as
sured.
Deficient and backward children in
the big cities have found great delight
in the school gardens and have proved
themselves capable of understanding
how to plant and care for the crops.
To this end, brighter future has
been secured for children, who, by the
beneficent healing of the great Mother
Nature, have found a little niche they
can adequately fill in the scheme of
things, and instead of burden to the
community they are becoming useful
members of society.
Secure garden for the children in
your neighborhood.

BEAUTY OF THE HOME LOT
BY L. M. BENNINGTON.

If your lawn is larger than you can
care for properly, plan to have it of
suitable size next year. Seedlings
cost but little, while plants are ex-
pensive. Many beautiful things can
be raised from a package of mixed
seeds of perennials.
Now is good time to plan changes
in the border and the flower garden, as
one realizes the mistake made last
year in planting the tall growers in
front of the low ones; in grouping ILL
matched plants and mixing inharmoni-
Gus colors. Keep notebook and PEN
Gil Ill hand.
In arranging the home lot, whether
for fruit, shade or ornament, plant the
tallest growers well to the rear, grad
ing down to the lowest, or creeping
things, letting the rows run east to
west, that all may have the sunshine.
They can thus be seen to the best
advantage, and prove joy to the be-
holder.

If the garden is bordered with flow

corner and red in another will COM
pletely change the appearance of
things. While white is excellent to
break the colors, more pleasing effect
is secured by shading rather than end

If a flower or two is placed on the

pleasure.
In case of contagious diseases it is
an excellent plan to use paper doilies
and paper napkins that can be burned
Immediately. There are many shapes
and sizes of paper dishes also avail
able if one cares to buy, saving the
washing and disinfecting of dishes.
When serving a hot dish of any kind
it should reach the patient piping hot
and if the dish is an ice or cold one
1t should be cold.
There is nothing more distasteful
even to a well person than hot dish
served lukewarm or frozen dish half
melted.
All gruels and cereals served to an
invalid should be long and we'll cooked.
Dried fruits should lie soaked overnight
and cooked until soft. Prune juice,
orange Juice and many lightly sweet
ened Juices are all suitable to give to
the sick. Toast water, given when di-
gestion is weak, is very helpful in in
ducing an appetite for more nourishing
foods, as is beef extract. Fresh butter
milk, junket kOumiss and clabbered
milk are all most valuable to give va
riety in a milk diet.

If care is used in the preparation of
the meat before it reaches the cook
and she removes Gll of the skin, there
the most fastidious. Mutton being a
short-fbered meat, is more easily di-
gested than beef or pork.
Mutton in casseroIe.-Cut mutton
into serving-sfzed pieces, roll in sea-
soned -four with bit of chopped onion
and fry brown in small amount of hot
fat. Then add pint or more of finely
shredded carrots, with enough water
to cook them, leaving just enough for
the gravy. The flour will furnish the
thickening. Cook slowly well covered
for two or three hours, or until the
meat and vegetables are tender. A
small serving of meat with plenty of
the carrots which are well favored
with the meat juices will make good
meal. This dish may be prepared in
an ordinary iron frying pan, cooking
the meat and vegetables on the back
temperature.
Take shoulder of mutton, remove
the bone and fill with stuffing, using
any desired forcemeat; baste frequent
ly while roasting.
Mutton With DumpIings.-Taket three
pounds of the breast, simmer until
tender, then set aside to cool; skim
off all the fat, return the mutton to
the liquid, add one or two onions finely
chopped, salt, pepper and little curry
powder if liked Just before ready to
serve, drop dumplings into the boiling
hot kettle; small ones cook in eight
minutes. Serve with the dumplings
surrounding the platter of meat. Nut
ton chops are delicious when we'll
cooked and seasoned. Mutton may be
served rare, lamb never. A few peas
to q mutton stew adds to the flavor
and gives variety.
Breast of Mutton With Tomatoes
Take three or four pounds of the
breast of mutton, season well and put
into the oven to roast. When it COM
mences to get brown, pour over it
half can of tomatoes, to which has
been added one finely chopped green
pepper. Cook until the vegetables are
well cooked.
