Make q Compost Heap.

Garden waste, decsysd vegetables,
dead vines, weeds, and the organic rub.
bish that collects about the place dur
ing q bnsy summer may be cleaned up
and put to work again through the
agency Of a compost heap, say special
lists OF the United States Department OF
Agriculture. Start the heap by laying
down bed Of stable manure which has
not been burned or heated. The size of
be plot will vary with the amount OF
refuse TO be used: for ordinary uses, II
the bed Is made feet long by feet
wide and two feet deep It will serve the
purpose. Over the manure spread q
two.foot layer Of refuse and cover with
another layer of manure. This last lay
or need be only foot in thickness. Re.
peat the layers until all the waste has
been disposed of and then cover the
whole with layer of earth.
IL it is desired to add to the heap from
time to time the top layer may be opened
and the new material emptied into the
hole thus made. This is convenient for
the suburban home where there is no
animal to consume the kitchen waste.
In the spring the heap Is we'll mixed
with q fork and the compost 10 ready to
be spread on the garden plot. The heat
ing manure will effectively destroy any
weed seed present and will also break
down the structure of most of the mate
risls that have been thrown upon the
pile. The process may be continued
indefinitely by simply adding enough
manure to insure heating. Compost Is
especially valuable for use in hotbeds
and cold frames.

guard against the weeds temperance.
The most troublesome species of hawk.
weeds occurring In the United States
are the orange hawkweed, which infests
poor pasture lands throughout the New
England States, and the yellow field
hawkweed, q comparatively recent In
PRODUCTION from Europe which Is trouble
some particularly upon rich pasture
lands in the highland sections Of Vir-
ginia, West Virginia and North Caro-
lima.
When the hswkweeds occur on poor
pasture lands, II Is sometimes question
able whether the expense Of eradication
is justifisble, particularly as these weeds
frequently "run themselves out" In five
to eight years. II 10 often advisable to
turn poor pasture land badly infested
with hawkweeds into q farm wood lot,
thereby deriving some revenue from the
timber and avoiding the expense OF
eradication. In large infested areas
where eradication methods are not at
tempted, hawkweeds should be moved
twice q year at the time when the flower
heads first appear, usually In June and
August. This prevents the maturing of
seeds which are readily scattered by the
wind to adjacent fields. Where com
plete eradication of the bswkweed Is
desired, the land may be placed Under
since the weed can not with
stand the effects of cultivating an inter
titled crop such as corn. The hawk
weeds grow typicslly In patches. One
Df the best methods Of eradicating such
patches Is to cover them with crude dry
salt. At least two tons Of salt per acre
should be used.

THEY ALL WERE AMERICANS
Interesting Observations on the Prod.
uet Of the Melting Pot by
Frederick Palmer.

Where were the foreignersi won
dered as I looked at the faces In the
streets upon my return from Europe.
The French. who had heard much of
our polyglotry. asked this question
when they saw our soldiers march
Ing along the roads Of France. In
French eyes the men were all Of the
type American. Yet they included for
eign born. as well as sons Of every
race In Europe, Frederick Palmer
writes In Harper's.
Are you Americansi their adopted
country asked Of them In those trying
days. They gave their answer In sac
riflce at home and in battle, often
lighting against an enemy Of their own
blood. Zalinskis. Einsteins, Schmidts,
Bertellis Katsanjans won the Distin-
guished Service Cross, thrilling our
pride with new sense Of nationalism.
Had they now reverted to loyalty to
the lands Of their origin7 II so, what
had wrought the change In their
hearts7
To my fresh view all the people
were distinctively Americans In garb
and taste; in their complexion, which
our climate so promptly affects; in
their brusQue and frank civility, their
intensity. their pleasures, and their
restless motion. Later. as I became
settled at home and more discerning.
! might note that this or that person
was Of Swedish, Italian. Hungarian
or Slav stock. Then I would see
through the veneer, as was told.
But aren't most Of us-again, not
new idea-who are "off the reserva-
tion," Of foreign stock? My people
missed the Mayfiower and came over
In 1885. I could not discern that the
descendants Of the Pilgrims were more
American than was or than dark
eyed telephone girl whose father was

Plant Foliage for Winter and Summer

Taking the United States as q whole
the average time that deciduous plants
are without foliage Is at least five
months. During this period the farm
home Is occupied as continuously as in
summer, and the surroundings should
be as attractive as possible, say land
scspe gardeners of the United States
Department of Agriculture. Evergreen
shrubs, both coniferous and broad
leaved, maintain color throughout the
winter not otherwise obtained. Used
In moderation, they are distinct addi-
tion at this season. On the other hand,
many deciduous shrubs have attractive
winter characters, the most striking be-
ing those bearing bright colored berries.
Then there are barks of many shades of
brown and gray, with some bright red,
green and yellow, that IL properly ar
ranged make pleasing contrasts and add
to the winter beauty.
The short blooming period of the aver
age shrub makes flowers the least i'm
portsnt of the characters to be consid-
cred. 10 spite of this the color, char
scter, and time of blooming should be
considered as well as the behavior of the
dying flowers, whether or not they fade
to q conspicuous and undesirable color
and hang on unduly or pass away with
out distinctly unsightly stage.
