GARDEN SHOULD Be BALANCED
impression of "LopsIdedness" May Be
Avoided by Using Care In De-
signing and Planting.

TO keep the proper balance In design
! 10 a salient point In any garden. To
| give a concrete example, one may
imagine clump of evergreens In one
corner Of the garden, and In the op-
posite corner some Towering shrubs
the other corners may be balanced the
same way, which will avoid giving the
impression OF lopslded garden; this
theme Of balance should run through
the whole design. The sky line should
be broken by occasional accent points
OF taller-growing plants. In planting
the flower beds the taller and lower
growing plants should be intermingled,
for this arrangement lends a far more
artistic touch than the prevalent mis-
take Of placing all the tall plants In q
straight row, and the shorter ones by
themselves. Attractive combinations
Of colors In the blooming seasons are
of greatest interest, the pastel shades
blending exquisitely, but decided col
0rs should be combined with great
care the different kinds Of flowers
should be 80 planted as to be dispersed
through the garden, so that when In
bloom few lonely masses Of color win
not be seen, but the whole garden will
be rich In the flowers of each season.
The paths should be governed in
width by the size Of the garden, and
should lead to something definite for
the eye to rest upon, which may be
pool, q rustic seat or sun-dial, etc.
II you are fortunate enough to have
view, this will form an excellent axis.
A winding stream is no greater an In
spiratiOn to the poet than 1t Is to the
landscape lover; 1t truly offers won
derful opportunity for naturalistic
and with few plants the
fairy touches are made which clothe
the stream In beauty.
Just as a garden surrounded with
,hrubbery planted In clumps affords
occasional and unexpected glimpses of
he garden within, and thus enhances
he beauty Of the glimpses by framing
hem In, SO the trees will add greatly
o view by framing In 1t.

MANAGERS IN FORTY CITIES
New Plan Of Municipal Government
Has Grown More Rapidly Than
10 Generally Known.

III somewhere, sometime, In the ever
booming and quite frequently bloom
Ing West there Is not evolved the per.
feet plan for governing city, 1t will
not be for lack of experimentation
with governmental schemes. A good
many cities and towns scattered over
the map Of the United States took up
with the idea Of government by COM
mission during the first decade Of the
new century. There was a subsistence
to the rush for the commission govern
ment scheme about Ave years ago.
Then, In 1913, the Ohio legislature put
through bill formulating what is now
known as the city managing scheme.
The idea has been acted upon to
an extent that the majority of people
are not aware of. Dayton, o., was
the first city of over $4,000 popula-
ton to try-out the manager scheme,
but there are now about 40 cities
90 governed. Twenty urban commu-
mites employed a manager last year,
Grand Rapids being the largest city
next to Dayton trying the new scheme
of government. The city manager plan
seems to be only variation of the
commission government idea. There
Ia commission, generally Of FIVE, be-
hind the manager, and the COM
mission generally appoints the mana
ger.
The city manager plan has been
adopted even In states where there
10 no statute providing for such plan
Of government. The idea involved is
being applied In many instances
without any change In the framework
nder the old councilmanic and city
ayor forms of government.
