The Scouts have no money, and
so are dependent on the kindness
of the older folks. Trucks are
needed for transportation Ot the
lumber. Laboris needed to erect
the home. Pots and pans and
other cooking paraphernalla will
be needed. Itis planned to have
several cots always at the camp.
These are to be used by chaper,

Twenty Years in the Philip
pines.

Twenty years ago the late Brl-
gadier General frederick Funston
broke the back Of resistance t.
the American occupation of the
Philippine Islands by the capture
of Emilio Aguinaldo. Those &c
wears of American occupation
have wrought a mighty change
in the Philippines. When We
went into the islands there
was one railroad line, 120 miles
long, and perhaps 400 miles oi
rough wagon road through the
tropical wilderness. Now there
are 1000 miles Of railroad ano
1000 miles Of good automobile
roads. Cholera, bubonic plague,
and smallpox used to sweep the
island with terrible effect. Our
medical men have stamped them
out. The peasants were near
slaves of the land overs; now
four. .fifths of the farming land is
being cultivated by small owners.

Our Franklinton Scouts have

Plans are going forward for the
erection of a peam anent camp

Burris has generously offered a

afford the greatest prospects OF

Still No Rest For Chickens.

Another way to keep chickens
from digging up the garden, writes
John Carter, of Clarksville, Ark. ,
is to take a piece Of light wire
and wrap it around one leg Of the
fowl, allowing the wire to extend
back about four inches. Then ex.
plains Brother Carter, when the
chicken goes to scratch, the wire
catches in the ground and, in ac>
cordance with the Einslein theory,
the chicken is pushed forward by
it's own muscular energy. Thus

SUGGESTIONS for Fall Gardens.

Fall gardens can be grown thru.
out Louisiana, and every person
who has land available should
have one. The value Of gardens
with regard to benefit in diet, red
uction of food bills and real pleas.
ure is too much underestimated
and too little appreciated.
In planning and planting the
fall garden the following points
should be kept in mind:
1st. Free the ground Of weeds
and grass before plowing. This
is essential, never plow under any
fresh vegetable matter if you wish
to plant soon. This material in
terferes with the water rising in
the soil, which is very import.
ant factor in fall garden work. It
also heats and causes the soil to
dry out sooner than it normally
would.
Where fertilizer is necessary,
use we'll rotted manure. This
should be applied beneath the
ridge during preparation. It the
soil is poor it may be necessary to
apply some commercial fertilizer
Ordinarily 100 to l50 pounds of a
mixture of equal parts of cotton
seed meal and high grade acid
phosphate to the tenth acre should
give good results.
End. AS the land is already in
ridges 3 l.2 to feet apart, time
may be saved in plowing by deep.
ening the burrows between the
old ridges with the plow and then
building on this trench to form
the new ridges. If, however, the
land is quite hard, and this method
would not give thorough prepar.
alton or the distance between the
ridges would want to be changed,
it would be necessary to flat break
the plot, harrow aud ridge it.
3rd. After removing the spring
crop, the land should be ridged at
once for the fall garden. This
will keep the weeds down, and the
rains will firm the soil. No seed
should be planted in fall gardens
until freshly plowed land has been
settled by at least one good rain.
4th. On sandy we'll drained land
it may be advisable to use fat
culture in making the fall garden.
On heavier soil, low flat ridges
may be advisable.
9th. Due to weather conditions
it is ordinarily much harder to
start seed in the fall than the
spring, Unless weather and soil
conditions are very favorable for
transplanting, it will be found
more advisable to SOW such crops
as tomatoes, peppers, cabbage,
and cauliflower thinly in the per.
manent rows. These crops may
be thinned later.
9th. The following vegetables
grow we'll in fall gardens if plan
ted properly and at time indicated.
Start the following in July or
early August, unless otherwise
indicated;

DREAMING TRUE. BY Alma Newton.
John Lane Company.
OT HROw away your ouija
boards, your planchettes,
and come into the garden
of dreams, the garden of the soul, for
it is beautiful the spirit of Christ il
there among the trees and flowers.
and the closer we get to nature the
sWeeter and keener are our dreams!
There is no gate to this garden of
Paradise, the trees beckon you. and
the sun blesses you; the air is charged
with strength, and the trees and the
sun and the air are the true mediums
for us ALI And before you 60 into
the garden try to make some one else
little happy. Do some silent act of
love, and then see how the trees
beckon and the sun shines!"
The fault of the distorted dream
lies within ourselves" therefore 1--WE
have to try to lead fiowerlike lives TO
see into the Kingdom of Beauty"
But the satyrs "are very powerful
and have world of their owni" They
say to the woman i'm the story who
is trying to dream true despite che
circumstances surrounding her. "We,
too. have loved young women. We
formed circle around you and YOU
made II stronger by your fear! In
fact, you made it possible by your
fear! If you had not feared us we
never would have possessed YOU. Fear
to us Is an avenue as strong as faith
is to the mystics."
Yet we are encouraged by the state
ment that before anything ugly comes
the soul always goes away"
The book is full of the pathos. the
deep anguish of woman who marries
a man she does not love. The style is
simple and beautiful for simplicity
and beauty go together. hand in hand,
and truth and love walk with them
through the pages.
OF. her work Mrs. Newton says: II
believe that any of 'to-day's novels
could be written I'm $50 pages. y.Brevity
is the soul of wit. 1t is not a question
of the number Of words, it is q ques-
tion OF wit"
Carrying out her beliefs. Mrs. New
ton has expressed her theme in half
the space many other writer's wou!1
have taken. Her books must he read
carefully. for n certain sympathy Is
demanded of the reader together with
willingness to fill I'm many things
that are only implied in the text.

Despite the rigors and excitement of
the chase, or being chased. Mr.. Beach
was not oblivious to the majesty of
his surroundings. 1--WE began to feel
that we were entering another world

never to lose the memory of that first
impression. There was Child's glacier,
with the ravenous river gnawing at it,
towering wall of solid ice. serrated
and scanned, the dead grayness of in

We fairly felt it's presence before we
sensed the chill breath which swept
down from it. It's very proximity was
terrifying. it was so strange, SO un-
known so lifeless and yet so menac-
ing" "A great berg an
acre in extent, came swiftly coward
us, the saffron water licking its sides.
1t was as blue as summer sky"
Surfeited with glaciers and grizzly
bears he departed from Alaska, leaving
this advice with respect to it: ITO him
who is jaded or tagged l can sug-
gesl no surer tonic than n pilgrimage
thither. However world weary or won-
der stated he may be. l promise him a
new thrill. strange sensation, a
cleaner mind and body and an abid-
ing wonder at the works of God"
From Alaska he turned his atten-
tions to warmer climes, to filming the
the manners and habits of the hostile
San Bias tribes of Centr..l America, to
