MAKE STONE WALL ARTISTIC
Everything Depends on Selection OF
Right Materials and Proper Care
in Construction.

In building the wall of stone there
are a number of things to be observed
where success is desired. The wall
should be well bonded together, the lin
tells over the windows should be
strong, the foundations should be ade-
quate to prevent cracks. the method
of laying should be artistic, and the
form of jointing in harmony with it.
All native stones used for rubble
wall construction have certain char
acteristics of color and formation.
Certain stones will split easily into
long, fiat shapes, others break into
jagged, irregular patterns, while 9TH
ers are SO soft that they lend them
selves to easy shaping In squared
blocks of regular size. Sometimes,
even the neighborhood may be filed
with round field stones, which can
be used to imbed into the face of the
wall and produce a surface Of round
Jumps. Whatever is the character of
the native stone it should be used in
its simplest form and not forced into
imitation of some other type. The
soft brown sandstones which are seen
in some colonial houses are easily cut
and squared; but to cut up hard
stone into such carefully shaped
blocks in imitation of this colonial work
would not only be waste of money but
waste of artistic effect.-"The Con-
struction of the Small House," by II.
V. Walsh, in Architecture.

Cultivate Young Trees.

Fruit trees should be cultivated dur
ing the growing season, as carefully
as corn is cultivated. The soil should
be pulveriZed to conserve the moisture
and to prevent the growing of grass
and weeds. Hoe the soil immediate
ly around the trunk, which cannot be
cultivated by horse cultivation. This
cultivation should cease the middle
or latter part of July. This will give
the tree time to harden. Ceasing Gull
tivation will cause the tree to stop
growing and prevent the succulent con-
dition, which would cause winter kin
ing. An application of barn-yard ma
nure near the tree but not Immediate
ly around the trunk is beneficial to
its growth.

OVERLOOK BEAUTY OF FERNS
Choice Varieties Seem Not 20 Be as
Greatly Appreciated as They
Should Be.

One of the things which the florists
Of the United States have neglected to
a great extent is the growing of ferns.
To be sure we see many beautiful
specimens in the windows of city es-
adjustments, but very few of the more
choice varieties, which are really just
as easy to grow, provided little care
is taken with them. How many know,
for instance that there are scores of
varieties of the "maidenhair?" The
baby maidenhair is one of the dainu-
est of these, its leaves being but little
larger than the head of an ordinary
pin. Another variety which is espe-
cially beautiful is the New Zealand
maidenhair. The stem of this fern
flattens. out as 1t nears the leaves, and
the leaves themselves are Superim-
posed one on another which gives the
effect of several shades on. green. OF
course there are also Che gigantic tree
ferns of the tropics, which have fronds
from five to fifteen feet in length, the
trunks sometimes bling four or five
feet in diaineter, but these would hard
ly do for a lady's bouquet.

Chickweed Pest in Lawns.


The most successful method of COM
batting common chickweed in lawns,
according to specialists of the United
States Department of Agriculture, is
to rake out as much of the weed as
practicable in the early spring, using
fine-tooth garden rake. This will
seriously retard the growth of the
weed. Commercial fertilizer should
be Heavily applied Immediately after
raking and the lawn literally seeded
with a good lawn-grass mixture. The
heavy growth of grass which should
result will tend to crowd out the shall
low-rooted chickweed. Constant now
ing and watering throughout the grow
ing season will hamper the spread of
the pest, The lawn should also be
rolled each spring.
One method of destroying chickweed
is to allow chickens to have access to
the lawns early in the spring. Exten-
sive experiments have been made with
chemicals for destroying chickweed,
but without marked success.

IMPROVEMENT IN RURAL LIFE
Cooperative Organizations Are Be-
coming Recognized as a Move
in the Right Direction.

Much is expected from the American
Country Life association, which Is dis
tinguished from other organizations
aiming at lettering rural life in that 1t
lays its emphasis upon the human as
poets of agriculture. One of its precepts
is that 1.-THE farmer is more important
than the farm" 1t is organized on the
basis of standing committees made up
of specialists in the various fields of
country life.
At the third annual conference of the
organization held recently in Spring
field, Mass, the subject was "Rural Or
ganization." The speeches indicated
that country people are at last awake
to their greatest problem-namely that
of organizing themselves for co-opera-
meeting that already progress in coun-
try life Is evident along every line of
human endeavor that makes existence
more satisfying. The consolidation OF
schools is proceeding with great rapid
ity; county and travelling libraries are
extending library service to increasing
numbers of rural residents; visiting
nurses are being requested in numbers
larger than the supply numerous move
ments looking toward physical educa-
ton and recreation are In progress;
colleges, normal schools and universe
ties are introducing courses in rural
ociology.-Chicago Post.

WILD DOGS CAUSE PROBLEM
dustry in Some Breeding Districts
in Australia.

! Wild dogs are presenting a serious
problem in Australia, according to a
Central News dispatch in the London
Westminster Gazette. The correspond
ent at Broken Hill, New South Wales,
says that unless immediate measures
to protect the flocks of sheep are
taken, they will have to be replaced
by cattle in the districts north Of
Broken Hill.
The seriousness of the situation Is
described by John Dunno, president Of
the West Darling Pastoralists' associa-
ton, who states that, although there
has been a good season, pastorausts in
the Darling River district and north as
far as the Queensland border are faced
with one of the greatest problems
within the memory of settlers in that
part of the country.
Reports are coming to hand from
all parts of the district" he added, "of
the enormous losses incurred owing to
the prevalence Of wild dogs. Already
country which before the drought was
admirable sheep country, is now
stocked with cattle, and likely to con-
tinue to be stocked unless the dog
nuisance is successfully dealt with"
Last year the western vermin board
was formed at Wilcania and the gov
eminent then in power granted $780,
900 for fencing in the western division
against wild dogs, but owing to q
change of government since that time
none of the money has been forthcom-
ing and the wild dogs have now come
right into the western division and are
creating havoc among the flocks.
