Condon's. He sent the calves home to
the market but did not return himself
and on Wednesday his brother John
was called up and told that Tom was
sick at Condon's and for him TO come
up end get him. He got an auto
mobile and at once went up and
brought his brother home. He was
unconscious and John says he was
badly bruised about the head aadbody.
How or when he received his injur-
les is not absolutely known but the
states attorney is investigating the
matter.

WHY She Is Hated.

Governor Whitman said at ban
quet in Albany:
Germany has the whole world
against her because She has attempted
to change the eternal verities. The
eternal verities-that you mustn't sink
a hospital ship, that you mustn't muir
der babies, that you mustn't betrax
your trusting friends, and 50 forth and
so on-all these things Germany has
tried to change. But she has tried ia
vain.

UGLY POINTS MAY BE HIDDEN
and Clothes Posts, Should Be
Made Things of Beauty.

The most noticeable permanent fea-
lures of the backyard, which is the
usual place for the city garden, are
the fence and the clothes posts They
remain grim and uucompromisiuE,
While shrubs flourish and flowers
bloom and after the leaves have with
cred ana fallen.
The garden magazines advise mass
Ing shrubs on the fences, letting vines
climb the clothes posts or strin@ing
wire netting for nasurtiums to climb
upon. This is we'll in summer but
when the leaves have fallen and the
naked fence is again exposed. the
dragging vines blow in the wind aud
netting and all fan in an uneomely
heap together unless the careful gar
dener removes them. At any rate the
fence and the posts can only be Cow
cred with foliage and bloom during a
short period.
The solution of the difficulty then
Is to make the fence and posts, the
ugly and permanent TEXTURES, things
of beauty. A fence may be made of
such pattern as not to be offensive
TO the eye and If it Is possible to have
it of brick or stone 1t need not be Il
support for vines unless one desires
it,
The posts, too, may be placed In
uneenSpicHeus positions. They may be
painted green, soft color, harmonic
ing well with grass. vines and flow
ers.
These two difficulties disposed of,
one may begin the planning of the
backyard city garden with confidence.
