Some over-zealous friends of Col
onel Roosevelt want him to be ap-
pointed secretary of war in place of
Baker. We doubt that Mr.. Roosevelt
wants the job. If one thing is more
certain than another, it is that he and
Mr.. Wilson are antagonistic, and
wouldn't, work in harmony Which
would be great trouble to both and
impair the usefulness of each. We
have come this far with Baker, and
had better try to finish the job with
him.

Of late years become familiar to gar

in rock gardens, and every flower lover
knows their delicacy of structure, their
brightness of color and their hardi-

But nothing can beat their original
environment. These patches Of yellow
and blue and rose and purple, cheek
by jowl with great beds OF snow or
some stranded and long unmelted berg,
look lovely. It is the setting they were
made for.
Strangely enough, when brought
south and coaxed to grow in our gar
dens, these Arctic and Alpine plants
lose both part of their great vitality
and their lovely tint. They pine for
the Arctic like the Eskimo does.

The ten states which constituted the
first electoral college had 70 votes,
viz, Connecticut, q; Delaware, 8; Geor-
gia, s; Maryland, s: Massachusetts,
10; New Hampshire, s.; New Jersey,
s; Pennsylvania, 10: South Carolina,
q; Virginia, IL. On the first ballot,
each of the 70 electors voting for two
persons, the vote resulted:

Space for Garden.

If a gardener should desire to plant
all of the vegetables mentioned, it is
calculated by garden specialists Of the
q. S. department. of agriculture that
enough space could be found for them
on one-fourth Of an acre. However, it
is advised that the gardener, unless he
has had one or more years experience,
center his work on as few as six of
the more important vegetables. For
most Of the vegetables listed the
paintings may consist of the entire
quantities mentioned. Relatively
small quantities of caulifour, egg
plant and parsley should be sufficient
for most families. The entire supply
Of string beans, bush Lima beans,
sweet corn, lettuce, peas and radishes
should not be planted at one time,
but successive planting two or three
weeks apart should be made SO that
fresh supply of the vegetables may
be had throughout the season.
OF. early Irish potatoes peck to
bushel will Zoe required, and of late
potatoes bushel to bushel or more,
depending upon the amount of ground
available for this purpose. If abund-
ant space is available it may be well
to grow enough Irish potatoes to last
throughout the winter.
