| planted under our kitchen window ana
was not transplanted to the flower
garden as were other plants which
grew beside II. This bunch OF plants
grew up unmolested as one big plant
and formed the most magnificent
bunch of bright red that you can i'm
agine. II was the source OF admira-
ton of every member of the household
and Of chance callers as well.
Asters are coming into bloom now
and / dearly love these many tinted
flowers. Puppies, layenders, wines,
reds, plnks and whites they form a
magnificent bed when the many tints
are merged. Nothing could be much
prettier either than big bunch OF
these flowers which lend themselves
SO nicely to interior decoration.
Hydrangea is growing profusely and
this is favorite among the late bloom
ing flowers. 1t is most worthy>of cul-
tivation and florists have been able to
develop It to such an extent as to
make wonderfully beautiful plant out
OF It. This flower blooms white and
later turns to pink.
One OF the prettiest of the late sum-
mer flowers, but one not very well
adapted to this climate, is the cosmos.
In order to get good results from this
flower 1t must be started indoors or
in hot beds early in the spring and
then transplasted during the summer
else the first frosts OF the late sum-
mer will catch 1t before 1t blooms. This
flower is such a fairylike one and
blooms SO riotously whenever Jack
Frost Is SO kind as to, permit It to
bloom at all. / visited in southern
town one summer and fall. On the
lawn where visited was planted yards
and yards Of cosmos which outlined
fence separating two residences.
The season was late and the flowers
doomed luxuriontly and riotously and
people from all the country around
came to see them. They were so sit
uated as to catch mountain breeze
which came down a ravine or hollow
and this breeze kept them in constant
motion seeming to give them rhythm
and 10 add to their beauty.
Chrysanthemums are perhaps the
hardest flower of the autumn and the
i last TO blossom. have seen them
many times heavy with the fall of the
early SHOWS and after the SHOWS would
vanish lift their heads and continue
to bloom.
Many people greatly admire the
dahlia and while its coloring is beau
tiful and its shape symmetrical yet
they have never had much attraction
TO me on account of the peculiar odor
they carry. To me one OF the chief
attractions of flower is its scent and
as soon as take one in my hand even
perhaps before hardly gaze upon II
1t naturally goes to my nostrils that |
may inhale its fragrance.

COAL VS.. OIL

Oil men point to strike of btu
minous coal miners as the great
est stimulus to develop ment of
the fuel oill business in recent
years. Manufacturers, threat
ened with coal shortage, are
inquiring of oil companies for
specifications on cost of changing
equipment and prices fo.' a fuel
oil supply. Millions of tons of
coal have already been displaced
in manufacturing centers of New
England by fuel oil and displace-
ment is being accelerated b., the
coal strike.
The fuel situation simply en-
phasizes the necessity for con-
gress to conclude final passage of
the oil land leasing bill and
water power bill. Labor radical
ism in the coal mines is building
up competition which will even
tually throw thousands of coal
miners out Of work.
Once an industry uses fuel oil
or electricity for its power re-
quirement, it will never return
to coal.

policy of thinking industrially.
Newspapers are the natural lead

Industries pay dividends to the

making no profits to pay diyi-
dends to stockholders. aaL
It's by industrial development
that pleasure and conveniences
are added to life,
The Indians had no industries
and they had no eonyeniences.
~ Farming, which is said to be
our most essential industry, is
absolutely dependent on general
industrial prosperity in other

the stockyards, which seriously
interfered with h production,
knocked the bottom out of the
hog and cattle market for the

dpstry in this nation is just as
dependent on general conditions
affecting them all, as the body is
dependenton unsuccessful func-

AN ECCLESIASTICAL PUCILlSr

Any bishop Of any religious de-
nomination WHO is G8 years old is
eligible to- aafiye-roundo boxing
match with Bishop McLaglen, of
Cleremont, South Africa, for
benefit Of a fund for disabled
soldiers, Any newspaper editor
ofthe same age is likewise eligi-
Bile. SO far othere has not been
any rush OF candidates, partly
because Of The known proWess of
Bishop McLaglep, and partly be-
cause, somehow or other, clergy
men and editors, seldom goips for
pugilism.
The boxing ,bishopis of an up
standing, two-hsted family. He
has a son who is a competitor for
the South African heavyweight
championship. The bishop main
tains with the old feryor Of The
odore Roosevelt, that talk of
"roughness'' and ''barbarism7
in connection with the pugilistic
art is nonsense that it is a fine,
wholesome, manly sport, advan-
tageous TO young men in general,
good to combat the effeminate
tendencies of the age and In no
way contrary to the spirit and
practice Of Christianity. He tells
clerical critics that they have
forgotten they are men, diving in
world of men and not of Victor
ian old ladies. ""'" '''
The old bishops attitude, too,
is not SO shocking as it might
have been before the war Army
experience has brought boxing

Labor unionism can regain its

by purging itself of the criminal
element it harbors. y III. y
u. S. railroads have gone thru
the same experience. Special
privileges to favored patrons,

aroused public resentment that
Legislation resulted, which was
so restrictive that it became de-
structive and good and bad roads

The liquor traffic went through
the same experience It refused
to purge itself of the lawless ele-
ment which made itself menace
to the community by selling TO
