Hazards Employees Opportunity

The following letter has been is
sued to Ralph Stone by II. p. HaZ-
zard of the r. p. Hazard Co, and
| has been posted in the factory. 1t
would appear to be a remarkable
/ chance for some of the employees to
own their own homes, and certain
! ly shows the generous spirit shown
by employers toward employees.
April 26, 1921.
| Mr.. r. Stone:
! Would state that we arc willing
! to furnish the sites for the houses
which we offered to erect for our
employees up to the amount of 10.
T understand that the Board of
Trade have the option on quite
number Of different lots and UNI
doubtedly any of our employees
could have the choice of these If
they get busy at once, except that
| the houses would have to be built
in groups of five or more and the
lot would have to be satisfactory to
us. We will also make the further
proposition that we will make
Gift of $50 a year to anyone in our
employ for the time of continuous
service that they have been with us
over two years, the total amount
not to exceed $500. This is limited
to Is same as our original PROPOSE
ton. and you are at liberty to post
any notice in the factory that you
care to. 1t is understood on the
above proposition that the cost of
the house above the ground all COM
pleted will not exceed $500. We
think it is time now to get a start on
this proposition and anyone who
signs up will do so with the under
standing that the deal may not go
through unless we get the whole 10.
We reserve the right to reject any
application if in our judgment it
seems best.

HOMELY TOPICS

If the lawn fence is old, weather.
worn and implanted, you have the
choice of painting the old one, remov-
ing it and building new one Of diff
ferent material, height or design, or,
removing the old one entirely and do
ing without a fence.
If some of the sides of the lawn
border upon fields or lots where live
stock is kept or pastured, horse
high or hog tight fence should be
maintained in good condition.
hedge that will present its wall of
Immediately on the inside of this
high fence may be planted a hardy
hedge that will present its wall of
green to every part of the lawn. Let
the open sides of the lawn with its
well-mown grass extend to the roal-
way, street, alley and to and beyond
the auto drive to where the side of
the lawn comes to an end by meeting
fence wall or property line.
Should the inside hedge not be to
your liking it may be dispensed with
and instead, several clumps of well
selected hardy shrubbery planted so
there is not more than ten feet be-
tween them, through which pleasing
glimpses may be had of the lawns,
fields and gardens beyond.
With the exception of but very few
select specimen trees for shade, or
namentation and evergreen effects,
the main part of the lawn should not
contain anything but grass of the
greenest kind, and always kept free
of weeds and unsightly tools and
coops, as we'll as to be frequently and
evenly mown with a good, sharp
mower.
This leaves you with but two re-
gions of your lawn to be planted, and
which will give it all the touches of
improvement that the most eminent
of Landscape Gardeners might de-
sign for you. l refer to the proper
planting about the foundation walls
of the house and its porches, and the
outside borders of the lawn itself.
In making your plans for this pro-
posed improvement to your lawn, al
ways keep in mind the three main
principles of Landscape Architecture;
ID Avoid straight lines and mathe-
NAUTICAL precision or arrangement in
the shaping of beds and setting of
plants. (2) Plant in masses, clumps
or groups of kind and color, and last
ly, ,3) leave the central part of your
lawn a great open space of beautiful
grass where the members of your
family indulge in their daily tasks
and plays.
Have a conception that your lawn
and everything upon it constitutes a
beautiful picture, well framed. The
house itself is the portrait and its
foundation planting with its curves
and colors but closeup ornaments to
the central picture. Let the implanted
lawn be the background or mating
between the portrait and France
lastly the hedges, fences and grace
ful curves OF shrubbery planting a,
bout the border represent the frame
of the completed picture.

THE DROUGHT
In BUCKS co.

The lower end of Bucks Couny adj
iacent to Bristol was the worst suf-
ferer by the recent draught. The cen
trail and southern part of New Jersey
was a also a severe sufferer. A trip
Sunday by reporter revealed the
farming conditions.
From Buckingham north and west
corn, wheat, hay and potatoes, three
crops all damaged more or less in the
dry territory, showed little or no signs
of injury. This is throughout the ter
ritory bounded by Doylestown, Chal-
font, Montgomery, Line Lexington,
Sellersville, Perkasie, Dublin and
eastward to within about three miles
of the Delaware river. Beyond this
the damage becomes quite marked.
To a person who has Travelled.
through South Jersey, or through
parts of Mercer, Somerset and Nor
ris counties, in New Jersey, the crops
in upper Bucks and eastern Montgom-
cry appear almost tropically luxuri
ant. Near Belle Mead, Somerset Coun-
ty New Jersey, the drought was so
bad that many of the shade trees were
practically denuded of leaves, and
even along the Delaware Valley most
potato patches were burned a rusty
brown.
Upper Bucks appears to have had
more showers earlier than this section
of New Jersey and not so much of the
rain which has prevailed for a week
mast. Those who have been under the
impression that the whole country
side was ruined by the dry weather
should take a trip over the sections
named, to receive a pleasing surprise.
