Natures Children
BY LILLIAN COX ATT
LIVING FENCES.
(Pino1t dnlOroSo !

A visitor to Cuba between January
and April is bound to be impressed
by its miles of living fences
rose-colored flowers lining highways
and railroads and inclosing pasture
lands.
Cuba is a country of many flowers
and few stones. Before 1850 its cat
tie were permitted to roam in the
open to find all food available. But
as the country grew and cattle rails
ing became an industry, landowners
had to find some means of stalking
their property.
Since Cuba's climate is almost
perfect, nearly every plant is a fast
grower, So. most fences being ex-
pensive, natural barriers we're plant
ed. Many thorny plants were tried
out and the pinon amoroso proved
to be most satisfactory. Straight
growing trees with few branches
were used as living posts to which
strands of barbWire we're strung.
The branches are cut during Feb
ruary, March and April, when the
leaves are off, and are treated scien-
tiflcally so they will take root quick
ly. They are planted as far apart
or as close together as desired.
Beyond pruning. the living fence
gradually grows over and around
the wire until it is deeply imbedded
in the wood and there held fast.
Today there are about 20 different
species of plants serving as fences.
Some bear fruit, but only two have
commercial Importance. The seeds
of one produce a medicinal oil, the
other is the cashew, which produces
tannin as we'll as the famous nut.

Mark NV Words.

G. How can you explain the long
"a" sound occasionally heard IN
menu. as "MAIN-you?"
A. Menu entered English COM
paratively recently-it was not in
Noah Webster's original dictionary.
Whoever started the MAIN -yoo"
pronunciation apparently sought to
demonstrate the purity of his
French" But "MAIN-yoo" is about
as un-French a pronunciation as
one could devise. In French, the
"e" of menu has an obscured "uh"
sound. The III" has no equivalent
in English; it is a blending of "oo''
and zee" exactly as heard in the
German umlaut H." a sound indi-
Gated by my symbol: GU. The
French, then, would say: muh-N CU)
Considering menu as an English
word, which it now is, the pronun-
citation "MAIN-yoo" doesn't jibe
either. for in no other English word
does the syllable men spell the
sound main"
