It is a little remarkable that every candidate for the Legisla-
 ture breaches economy, and just as soon as he gets to the Legis- lature, the main idea, with him, seems to be to create more ave nues for expense. From present indications this is going to be one of the most extravagant bodies the state has had for years. Instead of aboloshing useless Boards, Commissions and Clerks, it is endeavoring to create more jobs for the jobless

SUMNER GARDENS.

"a Garden for Every Home" is the
slogan of NJ. j. Abbey, of the State
College of Agriculture, who is in
charge of the state boys and girls
industrial contests.
He furthermore states that all va
cant tillable land should be put to
work. That the high cost of living
will be reduced when vacant lots and
unused back yards are made produc-
tive factors.
All this he states a be done by
a systematic organization of our boys
and girls. He would have every COM
munity cooperate with the local
schools, commercial clubs, women's
clubs and other organizations in
forming garden-canning clubs. Each
boy and girl between the ages of 10
and IS years would be given instruc-
ton in garden methods during the
spring months and when the garden
produces, all products which were sur
plus would be canned. Every home

the people of the state, who are in
terested in the conservation Of food
products to take up and definitely
promote the garden and canning pro-
ject.
1t is of interest to every city, town
and farm woman, as we'll as farmer,
to make a careful study of the new
cold-pack method of canning. The
plan, which the college proposes. is
for local people to organize garden
canning clubs in the schools, send the
names of the club members to the
college and each boy and girl will
then receive at once a garden-cannine
bulletin, giving full directions fol
making a garden and for canning the
surplus products. At stated interval:
the college will send further direc'
tons for the contest work.
Wherever a successful! club is or
ganized a member of the extension
staff will give public demonstration
in canning. Towns and cities takin.
up this work are urged to employ
supervisor during the summe
months. Already scores of clubs hav

that people have learned what their
homes should be and how to enjoy
them, both inside and out. They have
learned that a home is more than a
mere house in which to sleep. When
they speak of their home, a picture
shows them a dwelling, whether large
or small, nesting in a plantation of
beautiful shrubs and so situated that it
it's background and framing. They
has graceful arching shade trees for
think also of the flower garden, which
is the delight of the entire family, and
then of the private portion of the
grounds, which, is essentially an out
of-doors living room.
One of the most important reasons
for making the home attractive is to
interest the children in nature. Moth
ing will so help children and guide
them in growing closer to their home
than it's attractive surrounding and in
~teresting garden. And not only the
children, but the grown people like to
spend their spare time with nature.
There is nothing that illustrates this
more than our ever-increasing parks.
Every one experiences the desire to
plant something, just to see it grow.
What could be more helpful than to
encourage this desire and make it a
source of betterment in the increasing
love for nature?
An entirely different reason than the
enjoyment which will be derived, is the
increased value of the home grounds
In selling any property, it is a we'll
known fact that a coat of paint goes
a long way in closing the sale.
1t is being proven every day that a
proper planting of trees and shrubs
will be very much more inviting to the
prospective buyer as compared with a
house standing alone, presenting a
bare , forlorn and uninviting appear
ance.
Perhaps one of the most important
reasons why more people have not
planted their grounds, is owing to the
lack of experience and the proper in
formation on landscape gardening
which is absolutely necessary in order
that the proper effect may be obtained
and that the ground might be we'll
balanced, and correctly planned fol
both utility and satisfaction. The re-
suit has usually been very discourag
ing, as either all planting of shrubs
trees and flowers was ignored and thu
home left bare, or else an attempt wa
made by the setting of a few trees ane
shrubs about the lawn, without any
real understanding as to why or where
they should be planted.
The small property requires yer!
careful consideration in order to Obtain
the best effect from the limited
amount of space. The planting on tn
small place must be arranged that
makes the entire property appear a
large as possible, therefore, some on
understanding the principles of land
scape gardening, should plan you
grounds. Expert advice in the plan
ming and planting of small ground
will avoid many expensive and unfor
tunate mistakes.

THE NON-PARTISAN LEAGUE

On another page of this issue of TIL,
Monitor we print a communication
received from one of cur subscribers
telling of the work of solicitors fol
the Non-Partisan League in this sec
ton.
Those who joined and put up sixteen
dollars each to associate with what
they supposed was an organization to
benefit farmers found upon investiga-
ton they had Joined a pro-German
organization. Now they. are wonder,
ing if they can get back the fee they
paid to join.
We know of no way they can get
back their money and no way, others
can protect themselves from being
taken in by the representatives of this
organization but to read the papers.
They are full of the actions of the
league leaders, and their actions con-
.stantly show them to be against the
government of this country.
Last fall in a debate between the
picked representative of the league
and prominent newspaper man of
Minnesota the latter proved and forced
his opponent to acknowledge that the
league was On organization of the So
cialist party under different name.
The advertised meeting held this
week in Minneapolis by the members
of the league and advertised as "a
patriotic meeting" with Senators. La
Toilette and Gronna as the principal
speakers. makes known to any reader
the sentiments of the league in this
war.
The communication states that most
of these men who Joined were loyal
citizens and felt they had unwittingly
deserted their country by their act. |
Their being taken in by the smooth
spoken representatives of the league
and persuaded to join what they
thought was purely an organization for |
the benefit of farmers cannot be held |
against them as a disloyal act if they |
reuse to have anything to do with the |
league after knowing the real char |
acter of it. They should check off the |
sixteen dollars as experience gained |
and be more careful in the future

T hat Nonpartisan League

Considerable publicity has beer
given the Nonpartisan League
conference held at st. Paul re-
Gently and old Townley and La.
Toilette have gotten in bad.
The meeting was originally ad.
vertised as q patriotic meeting but
it turned out to be a "disloyaf'
meeting with Sen. LaFollette and
Townley, the president of the
league, as chief orators. The way
they roasted the government was
, a disgrace and has proven sore
disappointment. 1t was thought
to be an organization that would
be beneficial to the farmers, but
instead if has turned into what
appears to be a pro-german or
ganization, which it surely is when
they will permit such pacifists as
LaFollette to speak al their meet
ings.
Recently representatives of the
League have been canvassing this
section for members, and some
have joined and been relieved of
the $1,000 membership fee. A
good many no doubt already re-
gret it and wished they had their
$500.
