What Of the garden?
Recent gloomy days found 1t growing
just the same as ever in the Spring
time.
Iris blossoms unfolded their purple
silk; peony shoots continued to length
en-, buds to grow larger; grass grew
greener in every lawn.
1t was dark Spring. during those
days, but the true season, nevertheless
Wistaria had come and gone, espe-
cially those vines which flung high into
colored flowers.
Continued rains did not harm them
as much as might have been expected
by timid gardeners.
X \ \ X
Timidity, in gardening, is no more
to be recommended than in life, where
1t exerts a depressing influence which
seldoms results in good.
The timid gardener often is helped
by finding that many Of the things he
fears do not come to pass, or at least
not in the luxuriance which his imagi-
nation pictured.
Who is there who has not stood by
the window, during heavy shower, and
deplored the possible destruction by IL
OF some Of the gardens choicest blooms?
Usually such timid gardener has
one particular flower, at any one time
which he fancies above all the others
And past experience never seems to
teach him anything here. He is as
fearful, at each heavy rain, that his
pets are going to be harmed as he was
the year before. or the year before that
Experience is great teacher, time
also, but they somehow fall down when
1t comes to the typical amateur garden
er Of the timid variety.
He winces every time a heavy rain
begins to pour down. as he watches the
wind wave his precious stalks this way
and that
If the wind would not blow. he could
stand the rain with equanimity, for he
knows land this from experience) the
healthy need for water in the garden
Seldom is there too much Of it In
the cultivated garden, no matter how
much the larger crops may suffer. The
aims and purposes Of the home garden
especially that devoted principally tc
the cult Of beauty, are different from
those Of the truck patch and the farm
Too much water may harm early
food crops. but scarcely the Towering
things in the home garden. although al
times, under an excess, they may ap.
pear to be harmed.
The happy fact is that they seldom are
just as the encouraging thing is that
even the timid gardener finds that
the heaviest rain seldom does any real
harm to his daintiest blossoms.
Nature takes care of all that.
She did not devise the strange beau
ties of petals to go the way Of all
petals too quickly.
Rain in the face
That, too, Is Nature, and part Of
her
Her real children. those things, even
the animals which grow without knowl-
edge of themselves, seldom suffer from
rain or wind.
Even the hailstones, cutting like
knives. do surprisingly little damage
over the seasons. Flowers have ar
ability all their own of cringing beneath
the blast, giving somewhat to each
wind, or rush Of water. so that the full
force is never felt as it would be il
the stalk. stems, leaves and flowers
were rigid.
More damage is done to seeds anc
seedlings than to grown plants.

Detraction.
It's useless to set out to please
The universal throng.
Though plaudits are attained with ease
Some censure goes along.
Although some work is finely done,
Well hear in accents grim
The words Of some disgruntled one
II don't think much of him"
The favorite author Of the day
Evokes critics ire.
The actor, struggle as he may,
Finds folks who won't admire
Even the bridegroom who draws near
So tremulous, though trim,
Whispers on either hand will hear,

of the States have tried insurance OF

The guarantee Of deposits feature OF
the Glass bill has many ardent sup
porters on Capitol Hill, although it has
been attacked in administration circles
The supporters insist that nothing is
more essential to recovery in this coun-
try than restored confidence , in the
banks. Such confidence, they hold
would be inspired by the insurance oi
bank deposits as recommended in the
Glass bill. Furthermore, they answer
the charge that insurance Of deposits
would put premium on bad banking
with the assertion that the member
cess of the system, since they would
have to pay for the losses in large part
through the insurance corporation tc
be set up, would see to it that the
banking methods were good.
