DISCUSS TWO
SUBJECTS AT
WOMAN'S CLUB
Catholic Ladies Meet at X. c. Hall
Wild Flowers Preservation and
Home Preservation Discussed

The Catholic Woman's club held
their regular meeting Wednesday
evening at the K G. hall. Miss Anne
Doneghey addressed the members on,
wild Flower Preservation" The
speaker told of the importance of eff
forts to preserve the beautiful wild
plants. The pussy willow, the first ar
rival in spring, is not in danger Of be-
ing exterminated; next is the beauti-
full hepatica, which could be picked
without harm if the roots wese not dis
turbed. The blood root and the badger,
the anemone and spring beauty, butter
cup; dutch-man's breeches, adder tom
que, marsh marigold, the violet, wild
phlox, trailing arbutus, jack-in-the-pul-
pit, trilliam, dandelion, daffodils and
mandrake are listed among the pret
tiest.
A society for the protection of ma
tive plants in Boston urges that every
one use moderation, care and Judge
ment in picking the flowers
Mrs. J. Hubbard also read a paper,
entitled, ''The Spiritual Preservation
of the Homep. Every act of one has
it's influence for good or evil the speak
or told. The first wavering thought of
Adam and Eve as well as their fatal
deeds moves through the world of
souls today. On the other hand every
noble thought has its effect, derived
from the great healer, Christ.
From the time Cain slew his brother
Able down to the day of cruel Herod
history records one long volume of
bloodshed.
Mrs. Hubbard stated, the desire TO
indulge in luxuries often tends to
create unhappiness, and revivals OF
paganism. Religion, education tend to
preserve the home. Sympathy is a
powerful influence in awakening the
affections of the human heart and a
cronic crouch will destroy the peace
of any home

CARE OF TREES
ADDRESS GIVEN
Ernest E. Hubert of Madison Gives
Address at High School on We'd
nesday Afternoon

On Wednesday afternoon Ernest
E. Hubert, representing the Madison
Branch Office of Forest Pathology of
the Bureau Of Plant Industry of the
United States Department of Agricul-
ture, gave an address at the Baraboo
High school on the care of trees. In
brief his advice as to the care of
trees is as follows:
l. Do not use climbing spurs as the
tree is liable to become infected where
the metal breaks the bark.
2. Do not trim maple or box elders
now Oh account of the bleeding. Do
this later.
3. Trim or cut off broken parts of
other trees as soon as possible. If a
large limb is broken, cut off close to
the body; if broken near the end,
saw off. In cutting off limb saw be-
meath first then above. This prevents
splitting. With large limbs it is us
ually best to cut off a foot from the
tree first, then close to the tree. A
stub without branches should never
be left on tree.
4. If large limb has split down the
side of tree, restore with ropes and
anchor with wires and bolts.
5. If side of tree has long wound.
make smooth and cover with proper
preservative material.
8. Where a number OF limbs are
broken at the top all should be cut
of in uniform way, giving tree round
ed shape at top.
T. Remove all dead limbs.
5 The following are good preserva.
tives: Ordinary asphaltum paint OBJ
tanned at hardware stores or paint
shops, carbolineum at seed stores.
coal-tar creosote, or a mixture of melt
ed asphaltum with an equal quantity
OF coal-tar cresosote. (See u. S. Bulle-
