KEEP BOXES AT WINDOWS
Simple to Do, and Few Things ADD
More to the Appearance OF
House.

Those who can afford to spend the
time and money need experience no
difficulty in having window boxes well
furnished with handsome plants
throughout the entire year. In WIN
ter hardy dwarf evergreens, such as
lockwood, young pines, spruce, arbor-
vitae and jumpers may be used in the
body of the box with English ivy 10
trail over the edge. In early spring
various dubious plants-tulips, crocus
and daffOdils-are available. Double
English daisies or pansies may also be
used. There is, of course, no difficult
ty whatever in obtaining plants to oc-
cupy the boxes during the summer.
There is a large number of plants
that are suitable for window and
porch box gardening. Among them
NAV be found those that will thrive
in sunny, shaded or partly shaded
places. Plants for window boxes can be
roughly grouped in three divisions
trailers, plants of medium size for the
second row and taller ones for the
back row. There is nothing hard and
fast about these divisions. In small
boxes It is advisable to dispense with
the taller kinds, and sometimes an ex-
cellent effect can be obtained by US
ing one variety alone. Some OF the
petunias by themselves, because OF
their strong growth and sprawly hab-
It, furnish adequate height and at the
same time trail sufficiently to hide the
front Of the box.

FRUIT TREES IN THE CITY
Succession That Would Seem to Be
Worthy Of Serious Consideration
by Authorities.

I have often asked why we could
not have in parks, along our boule-
wards and along our streets apple,
peach and cherry trees. The answer
given was that boys would climb the
trees and eat the fruit. The robins,
too, would eat the cherries.
When boy gathered hazelnuts on
land now included in Lincoln park and
they tasted fine to boy with torn
straw hat, one suspender and not
much else for clothing, writes CORE
spondent of the Chicago Daily News.
But park commissioners rarely give
that kind of boy thought nor the use
that could be made of the space now
used for elms and sickly shrubbery.
What tree more beautiful than an
apple, peach or cherry abloOm7 Wal
nuts, hickory nuts and others are 100
per cent American and would tend to
make 100 per cent Americans Of every
boy and girl who eat Of their fruit or
enjoy their shade.
Consider the amount Of fruit and
nuts the children might have at no
greater expense than we now have
Just to raise few leaves and see them
blown away!
Here is a field for the boy scouts,
And a field that Is worthy of any or
ganizAtiOn that has American blood in
its system and wants to play the great
game of the people, for the people and

Expert City Planning.

The first essential in advancing city
planning everywhere is to get def
mite plan. then make 1t known in
order to get the necessary legislation
and financial support to put it through.
Cities should make plan and de
velop 1t piecemeal. That is, 1t should
be like building with a solid founda
ton with five or six stories on it,
but solid enough to carry 20 stories.
The plan should be complete, but
need not all be presented at once, nor
should the efforts in carrying 1t out
be sporadic or haphazard. An author
ity recently urged the securing of ex-
pert talent to direct city planning for
the interest Of all, and not for a class
of citizens.

Young pigs should be given their
feeds in such manner that each in
