CHARM Of
FLOWERS
Gardening Is Hobby That Becomes
Akin to a Passion.

Barring the equally ancient and al
Turing pastime of going a-fishing, no
hobby has stronger grip on it's devo-
tees than gardening. At 4 o'clock
of summer morning Celia Thaxter
could be found at work in her radiant
little island plot, a sister in spirit to
old Chaucer when in his knees in the
grass at dawn to watch daisy open
And these were not exceptional, not
extraordinary, cases of devotion They
were merely typical exponents of the
true gardeners passion.
Nor is this tense enthusiasm feeting
Not in the least. It is not more tran
sient than the bibliomaniac's passion
no more evanescent than the collec-
tors zeal, which only death can
quench. It is so sudden, youthful
fervor. Indeed, it is rarely found in
youth at the storm and stress period,
while it may be observed to be strong
est in those for whom the days of wild
enthusiasm are over. The bachelor
clergyman or the equietest Of spinsters
for whom other passion is nonexistent,
will yet lavish on their gardens enough
devotion to have won the heart Of the
most obdurate of persons, enough ten
derness to have sufficed for the moth
ering Of a dozen little ones. A garden
IS the world of the recluse, the pas
sion Of the lone man or woman, the
diversion Ci statesmen, the recreation
of poets and artists of all ages, except
perhaps musicians, who may be over
careful Of their hands.-Frances Dun
can in Scribner's.

HOW IS YOUR
REFRIGERATOR?

Madison, Wis, May "a Regular
and thoro cleansing Of the refrigerator
becomes, from now on, an important
feature in the hygiene Of the home
With the opening of the summer sea-
son the state board of health invites
attention to a duty Of housekeepers
which is too often allowed to lapse. In
a short statement on the care of the
refrigerator it says:
"While it is true that the usually
low temperature Of the refrigerator
will prevent very rapid decomposition
it is none the less true that decom-
position will occur and drops of milk
fragments of meat and small pieces of
food will undergo putrefaction, until
the whole refrigerator is charged with
thousands Of putrefactive bacteria
The odor Of the refrigerator may not
be pronounced, but milk and other ar
ticles Of food placed in such refri-
gerator will spoil quickly, and become
unfit for consumption.
''Milk from a foul refrigerator is
especially dangerous to the sick or to
infants, and it is doubtless true that
many disturbance of digestion cf
babies arise from good milk which
has become spoiled in the dirty ice-box

WAR TAXON
SUBSCRIBERS
RENTALS AND
TOLL MESSAGES

Attention is being called by the u
nited States Independent Telephone
Association, in a letter sent out last
week to member companies to the
war tax bill now pending in congress.
Item six Of the bill provides for tax
Of per cent on subscribers rentals,
and a tax of five cents on every toll
message of Is cents or over. Both of
these taxes are to be collected from
the subscriber by the telephone COM
pany and are to be charged in addition
to the regular telephone rentals and
toll charges.
Under the bill now discussed the
date for beginning the collection of
these taxes is set for June 1. In all
probability however, the bill will not
have become law by that time, so
that probably July 1st will be more
likely the time for beginning the col
lection of them. There is no certain
ty in regard to this, however, and COM
panies should be prepared to begin
collection of these taxes on very short
notice.

TAX ON CANDY CONSIDERED
Senate Committee Prefers Use of
Stamp to Sales Tax on Patent
Medicines

Washington, May 29.-The senate
finance COMMITTEES decided to hold on
to taxes on athletic goods, perfume,
cosmetics and proprietary medicines,
but to raise revenue from them by
stamp taxes instead Of the per cent

The committee also is considering
a tax on tonnage of pleasure yachts
instead of the house tax on their cost.
The changes decided upon followed
the committees decision to strike out
the 5 per cent tax on all manufactur-
ers' sales.
No substitutes for the house rates
on motiOn-picture films, jewelry and
chewing gum are contemplated.
A tax on confectionery is d new plan
of the senate committee on which
the treasury department has been
asked to submit estimates of revenue.
Under the house bin S2h00,000
would have been raised from athletic
goods, S4.75O000 from cosmetics and
perfumery and SS,500,000 from pro-
prietary medicines.

VOLUME So, No. %.

Every refrigerator or ice box which
is in constant use should be cleaned
thoroly at least once a week. 1t would
be better if It were cleaned thoroly
twice week. All articles should be
taken out, the lining scrubbed and the
shelves, if detachable, exposed to the
sunlight. The corners and crevices
of the ice box should be given careful
attention.
The drain pipe should be trapped in
such a manner as to exclude odors
from entering the various compart-
ments and should be so arranged as
to carry away the water from the melt
ed ice without hindrance. The pipe
therefore should be kept free from
stoppages at all times. This can prob
ably be done best by a liberal appli-
cation of hot water weekly.
"In placing milk or cream in the
refrigerator care should be taken that
there is no leakage or dripping. Spoil
ed foods, or tainted foods, should never
be kept in an ice box with fresh foods"

RIVALOF
POTATO

The "dasheen," known also as the
"chestnut tuber," is a new rival
of the Irish potato, according to re
ports from Florida. This, new food
product will yield from 800 to 400
bushels to the acre, it is stated, and
have gone as high as 600 to 900 bush
els. They are also said to be so per
cent higher in nutriment than either
Irish or sweet potatoes. Owing to the
fact that they are easily digested,
they are used in hospitals quite large
ly. There are a number of varieties,
but the one recommended by the fed
eral department of agriculture is a
native of the island of Trinidad, off
the coast of South America. The
leaves of the dasheen are said to be
superior to spinach and, when grown
in the shade, the stems are much like
asparagus. Whether the tuber will
grow in this locality is not known.
