TIMELY GARDEN HINTS
AND OTHER SUGGESTION

Bag the grapes now. Use two
pound bags, bag each bunch and fas-
ten on with an ordinary pin. In the
fall you will be repaid with perfect
fruit free from insect stings.
Feed the roses with an application
OF liquid manure, or apply some bone
meal to the soil and rake it in weak.
Roses are grass feeders and repay a
little extra care.
Dallas are thirsty fellows, but a
light wetting is worse than none at
all. If you wet them, do it thorough
ly, so that the ground is soaked a
foot or more down.
Everblooming roses do much better
if the flowers are kept cut. Leave the
two last leaves (or eyes) for new
growth, cutting all the rest Of the
stem off with the flower.
1t your peonies failed to bloom this
year, it may be because of sour soil.
Sprinkle some air Stacked lime around
the plant and dig it into the soil.
II your lawn is troubled with sum-
mer grass; as soon as frosts kill it,
go over the brown spaces with a lib
eral application of grass seed and
rake it over sharply, in an effort to
crowd it out. Keep it closely cropped
at all times so that it may not go to
seed.
| Hardy iris, or "fags," planted now
should bloom in their new locations
by next spring.
Plant bed of big onions this fall
and you will have crop of "scallions"
very early next spring, and they
surely will be a treat, being among
the first early green things available
from the home garden.
Stored turnips and carrots should
be kept covered with sand or soil or
they soon become withered and use
less.
In protecting roses for winter, never
tie them up in straw. You will be
very apt to smother them if you
do. Remember this! Simply have the
soil we'll up about the stems of the
plants, and give the beds a mulch or
covering of leaves or straw for win
ter, raking it off in early spring.
Alternate layers Of sod and manure
allowed to decay in a heap, then thor
oughly mixed, will make ideal potting
soil for your winter house plants.
Likewise the table refuse, weeds from
the garden, lawn clippings, etc., mixed
with manure and allowed to rot in a
heap will make a fine dressing for
the home garden next spring.
Heavy garden soil may be lghtened
and made more porous by digging in
some sifted coal ashes.
Are the tender shoots OF your roses,
grapes, chrysanthemums or other
plants troubled with lice? Dust them
with tobacco powder when the plants
are wet.
Plan now to make liberal planting
Of tulips, hyacinths and daffodils this
fall. Their bright gorgeous colors in
early spring will more than repay all
the thought, care and attention you
give them.

Cannot
Force Payment
OF Poll Taxes

Austin, March 30.-Cities and
towns in Texas have no legal author
ity to impose a poll tax on their
citizens as a prerequisite 70 voting
in any city election held the Attor-
ney Generals Department in an
opinion 10 the county attorney Of
Mason County.
There IL a law on the statute
books, Il was pointed out in the
opinion, that authorizes and en-
powers cities and towns TO impose
such a poll tax on all male" citi-
zens. When the Legislature passed
the woman suffrage act the law
makers failed TO amend the law 50
as 20 include women. This omission
meant that only male citizens could
be required 10 pay such city poll
tax. The Attorney Generals De
partment held that to allow the
male citizens to be so taxed and not
the female would be a discrimina-
'ion against the male. hence the rul-
ing that none can be required TO
pay city poll tax as prerequisite
to voting.
