Masses of white flowers interspers-
ed with cOlOrs, harmonic colors that
might jar.
Red and yellow do not go well TO-
gether.
Orange jars with many shades of
red and pink. So does vermiillOn red.
A deep crimson red harmonizes
well with other col0rs.
The magneta tints are hard to har-
monize with other colors.
Shades and tints Of the same color
90 well together.
Delicate pinks, blues, and lavenders
harmonize with most colors.
Mixed colOrs in flower seed pack
ages are seldom satisfactory, since
they make it difficult to arrange col
or harmOnies.
Care Of Flowers
Most failures in raising perennials
and ANIMALS are due to poorly pre-
pared bed. The earth should be spad-
ed up two feet deep and finely pull
verified. The top soil should be laid
aside and used for the top of the bed
A mixture of sand and ashes will i'm
prove the soil unless it is already very
black and friable. Well rotted barn
yard manure should also be used, un-
less the soil is already very rich.
Cultivation of the soil around the
young plants with an old table fork or
similar instrument, should be practic-
ed until the middle of June.
All weeds should be kept out.
If there is not enough rain. flower
beds must be watered.
The practice of making flower beds
in the rim of wheel from which the
spOkes have been removed, or of en-
circling them with bricks, shells, bot
ties, and the like, is to be condemned
1t makes it most difficult to cultivate
the plants, and they are apt to dry
out more quickly. The effect, too, is
not pleasing.

YARD BEAUTIFUL" CONTEST
Flowers


Flowers need a green background
of shrubs, trees, or vines to bring out
their beauty.
Flowers need not be in "bed" or
garden. They look well planted Just
in front of the line of shrubbery,
which gives them the green back
ground they need.
The flower beds should show no
earth spaces between the plants. The
plants should be SO close together as
to make a solid mass of greenery. Dirt
is not ornamental.
For the same reason, those plants
which die down in July and August,
as the poppy, should have the space
filled by some other plant, which will
begin to develop at about that time,
as for instance, the aster.
Perennials are preferable to ANNALS
on the score of beauty, permanence
and saving of labor. In the end they
are cheaper.
Perennials that grow we'll from
seed are: the bella donna larkspur,
coreopsis, lupine, foxglove, canter,
bury bells, hollyhock.
Do not have too many varieties of
flowers, but have large masses of
each kind.
For strong effects tall growing
flowers are needed-perennial phlox,

unfortunately it is not the only case
wherein you have permitted yourself

Now deduct l3c from 60 cents, and
We have 47c, which is the net price
that farmer in central Iowa could
have sold his corn for at most any
time in the first half of May, for de-
livery in Chicago at any time in
May. For the purpose of recogniz-
ing all the modern methods of hand

Vator and that it be allowed 4c BUSH

farmer instead of 32c, as stated by
you before the Executive Commit
tee of the American Farm Bureau
Federation in Washington
Your statement shows variance
from the truth of lie a bushel, or
about 20 per cent of the farm value
of corn in Iowa during this crop sea-
son.
Persons outside of Iowa seeing
your setatment that May corn was
on basis of 32c in Iowa, could
quickly turn to the market quotations
was the Chicago value, and would at
once decide that it cost 2Sc to mar
ket the 32c corn, then. ascertining
the freight to be 13c, and deducting
this amount, the conclusion must be
evident that the marketing cost or
handling charge would be l5c a
bushel instead of 4c, the actual hand
ling charge'-and the conclusion
would be accepted as true by the cas-
ual reader or by the farmers in other
states, who are smarting under price

accepted and acted upon because the
Secretary of Agriculture said if in
an address made for the express
purpose of conveying the information
to the public.
Mr.. Secretary, such propaganda is
little short of criminal, and is espec-

should Determine Rank.
The general classification of the
J Normal university team should be
| threshed out as soon as possible
and their rank determined. If
they can qualify as an ordinary
high school team under the above
conditions, so much the better.
| High school teams are scarce
enough in the state and the more
teams of high school rank that can
! be secured the easier 1t will be TO
arrange a schedule and to finance
athletics. A definite understand
ing must be had, however, as to
which institution the team repre-
sents and also as regards the AGA
demic subjects which each player
| is following. Also player who
plays four years or the equivalent
of an ordinary high school course
should be ruled out. Practically
all high schools follow the four
year rule in athletics.
The age limit Is a very difficult
! thing to decide because through
some circumstances beyond the
control of the student his entrance
in high school is delayed and he
may be over 20 years of age, but
he is still a high school student
The four-year rule should be more
strictly enforced than the age limit.
Proper Supervision.
The problem which the Normal
university Is presenting at the
present time would not come up if

PLAYGROUND IS
{. BEING PLANNED
FOR GATE CITY
(special Correspondence to The journal

! Especial Correspondence to The Journai.)
Ration, N. NJ, March 8.-The
Ration Playground association has
now fully completed it's organiza-
ton and is ready to proceed with
its work of providing q recreation
place for the people of the city,
children and grownups alike. The
association is regularly incorporat-
ed so as to do business in the city,
and the following have been elect
| ed officers: Lem c. White, presi-
dent; Miss Evelyn Shuler, vice
president; T. T. Ryan, secretary
treasurer.
The grounds have already been
provided through the longtime
lease of the Santa Fe railroad and
the city of Ration. The land is on
First street in the center Of popu-
lation and is a tract 45S feet long
and with a width of 115 feet at
one end and 100 feet at the other
end. 1t is proposed to enclose this
entire tract with an eight-foot
fence of strong wire netting. The
fence will be so constructed as to
provide absolute protection from
danger while the children are
playing within the enclosure.
The purpose of the playground
is to afford wholesome amusement
combined with healthful exercise
and safety for all the residents OF
the city who wish to avail them
selves of 1t. The use of the grounds
will be free to all. A competent
playground director will be in
charge and all sorts of athletic and
recreational facilities will be pro-
vided. 1t Is planned to equip the
grounds with all modern, steel
playground apparatus.
The association will seek the ac-
tive support of these projects by
the various clubs and general pub
lie of the city. The general plans
call for d city organization, gen.
eral public movement, and not linn
tied to any particular club or group
of clubs. A meeting is planned
for the near future at which all of
the clubs and Organizations of the
city will be represented. The
movement is primarily to furnish
something for the benefit of the
community, especially the boys
and girls of the city.
The movement should appeal to
every citizen in the city, because
If the movement is properly sup
ported. it will result in immeasur-
able good. The association has al
ready secured the services of an
experienced man in the admins
tration, planning and organization
of playground work.
