lever BLOOMING GARDEN"
EASY TO HAVE SAYS EXPERT

Have a flower garden for the sole
purpose of supplying flowers for the
house and also have separate beds
and masses of flowers for identifying
your premises, is the advice given by
:. G. Moore, expert floriculturist of
the College of Agriculture to the WON
N attending the Short Course at
Madison.
When there is definite garden
plot solely for keeping the house hup
piled with flowers, Mr.. Moore explains
then there is no hesitancy about pick
ing bouquets lest in so doing the beau
'ty of the bed be destroyed. Bouquets
of whole plants arranged in vases in
their natural grouping is the most
effective, he believes.
Native wild lowers give very beauti
full effects when massed or planted in
the garden, he said, and wild sweet
William, Jack-in-the pulpit, and ferns
are quite easy to grow
Masses of flowers here and there
around the border of the lawn are

OBSERVE GRADING RULES

Corporations and individuals violat-
ing the states potato grading and
labelling requirements at Wisconsin
shipping points are subjected to crimi
nal prosecution by formal complaint
filed with district attorneys today by
the Department of Markets. Ship.
ments both to points within the state
and to outside destinations are made
the subject Of action.
The present regulations of the De.
partment of Markets require labelling
of cars or tagging Of sacks Of potatoes
to show the grade of the product or
the fact that it is ungraded. The com
pulsory inspection service utilized in
1921 has been supplanted by a volun-
tary system conducted by the State
Department Of Markets in conjunction
with the U. S. Department of Agricul-
ture.
The tagging and marking orders are
in full effect, however, as in 1920 and
SO far have never been successfully
challenged in court as to their vail
dity. Out Of fourteen potato prosecu-
tions brought in 1922, the department
was successful In eleven. Two cases.
were dismissed for lack of evidence
and one is still pending.
Minnesota will be forced to adopt
grading system for potatoes to com
pete with Wisconsin spud standards
according to agitation now being made
through the sister states trade jour
nal. The Potato Digest, official organ
of the Minnesota Potato Exchange, ad
vocates immediate adoption of tubel
grades and labelling requirements il
that state in order to overcome tn
cad which the Badger article is tax
-ng on terminal markets for reliability
in quality.
Either Minnesota growers" says
his paper, must grade and produce
quality and, at that, quality that can
compete with other states or else it
must go out of the potato business"

cation treatment of grouping them
around trees and stones as they are
found in nature is also advised. Ster

care must be taken not to have a

is true for flowers require only the

Prepared sheep manure is best for
flowers, and the soil must be kept

Oil paintings are framed without glass

hence require less heavy frames. A

prints generally have narrow dull

White mounts for pictures are sell

White in the room. Etchings generally
have the white mount. Whether a
,icture is mounted or not depends
argely upon the space in which it is
go. When mount is used it
hould match the colors of the frame
nd of the picture.
The best way to hang large pic
ure is to suspend it from two hooks.
One wire passes through the two

Ire hung this way can be straighten

are to go.
Photographs of our friends belong
in the bedroom and not in parlor or

The function of a picture frame is
to hold the picture in place, to denmark
it slightly from the wall but still to
relate them both. When you notice the
frame before you do the picture you
may be sure the frame is not in good
taste.
The modern idea in picture framing
is to get away from the ornate. The

Here are some suggestions she OF

To make a room appear higher, re.
peat verticle lines. Use striped paper
long draperies hung straight, and
long pictures or ornaments.
A room may be made to look lower
by lowering the picture moulding tc
drop the ceiling, by using valences or
lambrequins over wide windows and
by the use of long pieces of furniture

walls and have the ceiling OF the
same coloring than the walls. The
thin curtains may be of light cream
with side draperies of the tan of the
wall for background with a design
containing more intense orange and
some of the darker shades in the
room Touches of brighter orange may
be used in pictures, candles and lamp
shades.
Color scheme for sunny room Use
soft blue gray for the walls and dark
ar blue and tan in the floor covering
Small amounts of intense orange
make the blue most effective and DE-
not defeat the GOODNESS it brings.
Color scheme for a moderate room
A soft grayed yellow-green is good
wall covering with tint one or two
degrees lighter for the ceiling. Small
amounts of purple combined with the
leading color will add warmth to thf
cool green and complete the harmony

WHAT DOES POSITIVE HEALTH
MEAN FOR THE CHILD?

A body in working order, kept sc
through regular examinations, an in
come of food, rest, fresh air and play
which will balance the needs of the
body, continued growth repair, study
and play.
To do this we need the cooperation
of the medical profession that the
body can grow, the parent who will
see that control of food, rest and work
will permit to grow, and an education
program that visions the school child
of today as an available asset or a
liability of tomorrow.
When the income balances the out
go, we have child that promises to
take his adult place in the industrial
civic, and social life as an asset AS
sets fill parks, Fairgrounds, schools
and colleges. They become efficient
workers with full weeks pay They
are the foundation of the healthy,
happy American home life with time
for civic duties. Government in all
its units, the medical profession, the
home; and finally the child, each share
responsibility in making success of
this plan for positive health.
No man ever lives long enough to
be glad he had neglected his health.
The healthy child will live long and
be glad he has cared for his health.
