RR7O)BY their back yaDls ye shall IN know them," is a paraphrase GS of an old adage I like, for it tells the story of how character is DOT trayed in home back yards more fully than any. other words can convey it.
 Front wards are usually well cared for but back yards-alas! too often are negleeted sort of Queen Ann effect in the front and q Mary Ann effect in the back; you know what I mean. went to a woman's house the other day and during the course of our conver- sation, we were talking about something which necessitated her asking me to go out in her back yard to see for myself. that what she was telling me was true; something about some vegetables she had grown on ever so little space of ground well, when I got there l hon. estly was so astounded that I was al- most petrified the filth and the un kempt condition of the premises was disgrace to the woman and her neigh bors; would have been ashamed to have let we'll bred dog go into such a spot; honestly don't see how the vegetables had the nerve to grow III such surrouhd- ings; but, then, most of them were onions and onions will do anything once.
 But aside from this frivolous talk; haven't you ever noticed how many peo- pie neglect their back yards and are perfectly contented and happy if the front yard puts up a good appearance?
 They don't seem to mind what their neighbors on another street think of their back yards, just so long as their neigh bors across the street find nothing to cricicize in the appearance of their front yards.
 All back yards, of course, cannot be symmetrical and beautifully laid out by a landscape gardener. and all that, but they can, at least, be clean and we'll kept and tidy and sanitary.
 I know one back yard that is a joy to

the eye and pleasure to the people who live back to back with it in such an intimate sort of way. This back yard is small and could eaisly be messy
 and torn up, but it isn't; the grass (what little there is of it) is as well cut as the grass on the terrace in the front yard the little cement walks are swept every day and the little gutter places cleaned

THE WINE WAY TO DEGENERA-
