drying out of the roots and protect
from the wind and sun.
Plants should be set slightly
deeper than they stood in the nurs-
cry row.
In digging holes be sure to provide
ample space for roots without crowd
ing.
In tamping the plant be sure the
soil is well packed under the crown
and that no air pockets remain
around the roots. If air pockets are
present, the roots dry out and the
plant will not survive.
Don't Mound Up Earth
Don't mound up the earth around
the plant. This mound acts as a
water shed and will prevent moist
ure for gaining ready access to roots.
Place only the best Of soil around
the roots. A top dressing of well
rotted manure is highly beneficial.
After planting, the plants should
be pruned and all dead, diseased and
broken parts removed. The top
should be Systematically reduced
about one-third. This insures and
induces stronger root growth and
places the. plant in a balanced con-
dition.
Planting should be done now or
before the buds break.
After the plants are in the ground
they must be kept well watered. Cul-
tivate the soil thoroughly. Protect
the plants from insects and diseases
by spraying. Keep all dead wood
| removed.
Do not allow grass to grow in
shrubbery beds and keep the grass
back at least one foot around trees.
The beauty and success gained
is largely in direct proportion to the
care. Give your plants a chance
and you win be amply rewarded by
luxuriant growth and bloom. You
will at the same time provide health
! full recreation for yourself.

Planting

Planting is a simple operation, but
the way you carry out the funda.
mentals means success or failure.
Remember that all plants are living
organisms. They need air, food and
water. They receive their food and
strength from the ground through
their roots, the most delicate part Of
the plant.
Three important things must be
done to make your planting a
success.
1. Prepare the soil properly.
2. Place the plants in the soil
correctly.
8. Give them the right care after
they are in the soil.
If the plants are to be arranged
in groups, as is most generally the
case, 1t is well to prepare the entire
area to be planted. This Is done by
thoroughly turning over the soil, re-
moving roots, stones and other OBJ.
jectionable matter. Frequently con.
tractors use rubbish of all kinds for
filing around the foundations of
new houses. This rubbish, especially
plaster, Is harmful to the plants and
must be removed.
Get Good Soil
If the soil is poor, it win save
time and money to have it removed
and good soil substituted. Your
plant will then have a better chance
to live and thrive. A healthy plant
is a joy; a sickly plant is worse than
none.
In placing the plants, all diseased
and mutilated roots should be re-
moved or cut back before planting.
Preserve as many of the fibrous
roots as possible as they are the
feeding roots Of the plant. In prun-
ing, make the cut on the under side
parallel to the ground. Prevent any

Ida M. TarbeW Declares Florida
Nearly Wrecked by Binder Boys

The late William Jennings Bryan
prayed aloud each Sunday in a
Miami garden, before 5000 people,
while the Binder Boys" piled their
INSCRIPTIONS trade on the outskirts
of the same crowd.
Subdivisions, whose only inhabit-
ants were deep sea monsters, found
eager purchasers in the vast and
gullible crowd which swept into
Florida on the wings of the Boom
between 1920 and 1925. Prospective
farm purchasers were shown soil in
office windows which was said to
grow crops overnight; millionaires
slept in tents; great cities rose from
the jungle in few months; for
tunes arose in day and were lost
in an hour-these are some of the
vivid pictures of the Florida Boom,
as described by Ida M. Tarbell, most
famous Of women Investigators in
series of articles appearing in
McCalls magazine.
Miss Tarbell says of the "binder
boys, who threatened early wreck
age to the Boom:
"Their process was interesting.
You had a piece of property, we will
say, worth 100000, and binder
boy came along offering you a big
ger advance than you had ever
dreamed it was worth. He offered
you $4,000 as a binder to the bar
gain for a limited period; then he
went out to his work, but his work
was not to sell the property; it was
to turn over the binder. He would
sell it for $4,000. 100000,
$1,000 90. With each sale the price
of the property was advanced, say,
$4,000. The initiation was fast and
furious-but bona fide sale was
rare-it was the binder which
changed hands. And when the bind
err finally ran out, you still had the
piece of property but with a suspi-
,eions stain on IT,. One able gentle
man told me that he believed there
were $4,000 at least of the gentry
in Miami alone!"
This is the dark side of the Flo
rida Boom, sketched by a great
journalist. The bright side, the en-
during values outweigh this in Miss
Tarbell's series.
In these articles, for the first
time, are the full glamour and ro-
nance of Florida's quick fortunes.
One real estate man is shown MAX
ing $6,OOO,0O0 in an afternoons
sale. But the appealing picture is
that of little people amassing un-
expected riches. The poor, the sick,

Frequently in every theater mes
sages come to the box office for

it has been necessary either to
interrupt the performance long
enough to make an announcement
from the stage or wait until the

ed plan which is better than
either of the older methods. He
has made an electrically illuninat-
ed and portable signboard and with
this contrivance an attendant SIM
ply steps from the wings to the
stage, flashes the message direct
to the person wanted and that
ends it.
The sign is made of shallow
square box with a stenciled face.
The words WANTED at the Office"
are stencilled in the permanent,
fixed portion of the face. The name
of the person wanted can be stem
cilled quickly on a small slide and
slipped into a grove above the
permanent portion of the face.
