THE BEAUTY OF VINES By JOBEPHINE DE MARR. When In doubt lis to what to plnnt, plant vine* Is Hound advice. Vines beautify; they are useful; they are cany to (crow. They shade from the hot sun; they hide old or obnoxious features; they encourage the birds to | nest about the house; they are the drapery nature throws over and about with a lavish hand to soften and em bellish. When preparing to plant vines, be sure to spade deeply, manure heavily, j and prepare the soil After perennial nnd hardy vjnes are estab- ; llslied It Is difficult to cultivate them, , therefore, do all you can before plant-, J lug them. When they begin to "spin" i they must have supports, otherwise they will be stunted In growth and un- I satisfactory. There arc so many beautiful vines | among annuals, perennials and hardy vines that It Is hard to decide, If the choice Is at all restricted. If you wish to blot out nn old building, cover It with vines. If you dislike the neces sary fence, turn It Into a thing of beau ty by planting vines along Its length. A dead tree renews Its youth if vines are allowed to clothe Its branches. Let vines shade the porch and thus make It » cool and leafy re treat from the summer's stin. Curtain the shutterless south window with vines and let them grow about the home wherever possible. The grape Is one of the most useful vines. It Is hardy; early In the spring Its leaves are ready to cast a shadow. Its blossoms are delicately fragrant and Its fruit Is delicious. Attention must be given It In the way of fertil ity, pruning and tying. Among the wild vines the trumpet vine, Tccofnn radlcans, wild clematis, (virgin's bower), and bitter-sweet are popular. In transplanting the latter from the woods be sure that you pro cure one that Is fertile, for some of : them.do not bloom. The Dutchman's pipe Is another desirable wild vine, but it Is not as common as those men tioned above. The wild climbing rose has an ex quisite flower: and, once started, grows shoots ten to fifteen feet high In one season. The climbing roses are led by the i rambler, and ll* hybrids. However, its foliage gets shabby and spoils lis beau ty as a porch plant. It makes a brave show when blooming. The good old prairie queen still continues to be the standard climbing rose. All the Ayr shire roses are hardy,' also the Chero kee roses. The sweet briar, Lord I'en *ance, Is In a way a climbing rose. The wistarias take a long time to become established, but repay by the blooms. The Madeira vine, mignonette scent ed, has tuberous roots, whl*h are not ha I'd)', grows fast ami forms a fine screen with its thick, fleshy leaves. Tho matrimony vine, although Its blooms are sum 11 and Inconspicuous, grows quickly, throwing out long, graceful sprays that droop to the earth Tho moon-vino want* rich earth, plenty of *un and water. It make* BH tonlahlng growth In a aea*ou. Mow over, for the best result* It must be started In the house. Those who want a curious and beau tiful flower should plant the passion flower. Tho hardy variolic* need mulching during the winter until wall established. The tender passion flow er* are very extremely beautiful, but are rather shy bloomers. The honeysuckle* aro desirable and popular on account of their many good qualities. They grow quickly, forming dense shade and arc Iron clad a* regard* Insects and tll*ea*e. Hull's Kvergreen blooms all summer, and Its flower* are delightfully Ja*mlno-scent ed. It hold* Its leaves until spring, almost, and therefore should not bo allowed to shade windows which need the winter light. Tlie various clematis aro all beauti ful and desirable climbers. It I* not generally known that If Clematis panl cnlnta Is severely cut back after flow ering It will form new wood which will benr fine flowers and many of them the next season. Ideal plants for covering brick, atpne and rough surface# are the am- (UAffiimv ? j^SfopP pelopsis ano liedona neux —the true Kuropenn ivy. The lutter prefers a northern exposure as the alternating thayving and freeiing of late winter Is apt to kill It If grown where the sun strikes It. The ampelopsls, better known as the Boston Ivy or Virginia creeper, Is at all times beautiful. The tender growth In the spring Is delicate ly shaded and In the fall the leaves I are gorgeous In vnrl-colored golds, crimsons and scarlets. Mornlr.g glories, cypress- vines, sweet peas, gourds, nasturtiums, Japa nese hops, with cucumber arc among j our most desirable annual climbers. Seeds of them do not cost much, and a j package of one or the other will yield shade, beauty and grace. ! The sides of n steep terrace or bank ' may be transformed into a thing of ! beauty by planting trailers among Its j top. Itosn Wlchtjrnlana, the memorial rose, and Its hybrids are desirable for this purpose. It produces a profusion of long wreaths of sinnll thickly set leaves, that look as though they were varnished. In June It literally covers Itself with large, white single roses. The Virginia creeper, the honey suckle, nasturtiums and moon vines are trailers rather than climbers. Of garden plants the sweet potato and the dewberry are genteel enough to be grown as trailers. They give edibles instead of flowers. CHAIN BRACE ON APPLE TREE There Should Be a Bwivel So That Screws May Be'Tlghtened t* Hold Limb Firmly. A big fruit crop Is likely to mean a good many injured tsees.from limbs breukiag and splitting off under the load of frlit Propped-up limbs are Chain Brace on Tree. the rule In many young orchards around picking time. Where a big tree Is heavily burdened It Is possible to keep It from splitting by the time-hon ored device of using lag screws and a chain or the screws and a couple of rods with a turnbuckle. The chain will work Just as well, however. There should bo a swivel In the chain, corre sponding to the turnbuckle, so that the screws may be tightened up and the weakened limb held firmly. The de vice may be left In place and will be of permanent value. WATCH CLOSE FOR CLINGERS Dried. Up, Diseased Fruits That Btlck to Branches Carry Disease Over Until Bprlng. It Is not enough to destroy all of the insect-laden and fungous-dlsease-ln {ested fruit that drops before or during fruit harvest by feeding same to tho liogs, sheep, or other Btock. There are quite often drled up, diseased fruits that cling to the branches, for weeks after harvest-time, which carry the spores (germs) of disease over until spring and then scatter them broad cast by wind, insects, and birds. There is Just as much in preventing trouble as curing It DECISION IN $57,000,000 DUPONT SUIT DELAYED Philadelphia, Pa.—A derision of the Hnlted Slate* circuit court of appeals In tlio $57,000,000 DuPont stock suit Is delayed perhaps for a year as a result of the refusal of the court to order the ca*e argued during this month. The litigation arose out of the ac quit!

The red-tailed hawk, or "hen-hawk," as It Is commonly called. Is one of the bent known of all our birds of prey, and Is a widely distributed species of great economic Importance. Its hab it of sitting on some prominent limb or pole In the open, or flying with meas ured wing beat over prairies and sparsely wooded areas on the lookout Red-failed Hawk. ! for Its favorite prey, causes It to be noticed by the most Indifferent obser ver. Although not ns omnivorous as the red-shouldered hawk, It feeds on a variety of food, as small mammals, )J>nal;es, frogs, Insects, birds, crawfish; centipedes, and even carrion. In re gions where rattlesnakes abound it destroys considerable numbers of the reptiles. Although It feeds to a cer tain extent on poultry and birds, It Is novertheless entitled to general pro tection on nccount of the Insistent warfare It wages against field mice and other small rodents and Insects that are so destructive to young orchards, nursery stock, and farm produce. Out Of D3O stomachs examined, 457, or 85 per cent, contained the remains of mammal pests such as field mice, pine mice, rabbits, several species of ground squirrels, pocket gophers, and cotton rats, and only 02 contained the re mains of poultry or game birds. BIG RETURNS FROM SPRAYING Additional Profit of SI,OOO Secured From Orchard of 200 Trees by Nebraska Man. Another -convincing showing for good returns from spraying trees ha» just come to hand from a Nebraska fruit grower, J. Balph Cooper, who has completed three years of spraying work under the direction of his state experiment station. During the three years' period the unsprayed trees ma tured only 13.4 per cent of marketable fruit. This left 86.6 per cent of the fruit that was fit only for vinegar, and gare an annual average Income of only for the unsprayed trees. In con trast, the fruit trees that were sprayed four times each season for the control of fungous diseases and Insect pests, at a cost of 24 cents per tree for labor nnd sprny material, returned an an nual average Income of $7.38 per tree. This means an additional profit of over SI,OOO from till orchard of only 200 trees. ~ GUARD TREES FROM RAVAGES Mice and Rabbits Will Do Consider able Damage During Winter Sea son In Orchard. Every care should be taken to pro tect the young fruit trees from ravages tills winter by mice nnd rabbits. Hun dreds of young trees were destroyed last winter. There is going to be profit in every bearing tree for years to eome. And when apples get scarce and dear is no time to rush Into planting. Be ready for the prices. Wrapping the trees with crumpled newspapers tied with binder twine Is a cheap way out WOOD ASHES AS FERTILIZER Good for Grapes, and Half Bushel to a Vine Is About Right—Prune Second Season. . Wood ashes make a good fertiliser for grapes, and hnlf u bushel to the vine will not be too much. No prun ing will be required the first seuson, but the second season cut back the strongest canes to thsee or four buds %nd remove the others. PRUNING ON PRAIRIES One cannot pmne trees on the prairies In the winter as much tjs In n inolster climate. A tree butcher who has gained his knowledge of pruning In Ontario or Nova Scotln will he a danger ous man to turn loose In Mani toba for Instance.

Glencoe and Wlnnetka have operated successfully for some time under the city management plan, In spite of handicaps. They have' felt the need of specific statutory authority and have been somewhat embarrassed by the presence of certain elected minor offi cials who are not under the jurisdic tion of the village trustees. For this reason many cities and villages wish to adopt the commissioner manager form of government. The plan is to be made applicable to, cities or villages not exceeding (500,000 population—that Is, to nil municipali ties of the state except Chicago. Un der Its terms the city or village coun cil would consist of the mayor and four commissioners, to be elected. All administrative and executive powers would vest In a city manager appoint ed by the council for an indefinite term at compensation fixed by the council and subject to removal at the coun cil's pleasure. Eight stutes now have laws of this sort In successful operation. They In clude New York, Massachusetts, lowa, Michigan, Ohio aud Kansas., Notable Instances of Successful use of the man ager system are found In Dayton and Springfield, 0., and Niagara Falls, N. Y. 1 Only one feature appears to vex the student of municipal government. This relates to the payment of a salary to the mayor, whose functions would be largely oeremonial —although he Is to be a member of the council and its pre siding officer and fees to the other four commissioners for each meeting at tended and for time spent on city com mittee work. Yet It Is quite possible ,thnt the absence of such emoluments would tend to make available fotf these positions men of high class and marked ability.—Chicago Dally News. GUARD AGAINST ROSE SLUG Good Idea Now to Devise Means fop Combating Deadly Enemy of Suc cessful Flower Garden. One of the greatest drawbacks to g successful garden is the ravages of toe rose slug, which renders an entire bush unsightly in a short time. But this enetny may generally be combated if the work is begun in time. If given, enrly in the season, a good spraying once a week for several weeks in succession with the full force of the spray from the garden hose, this ppst can easily be kept down. If yon do not have a hose make up the following solution and use It full strength from 'the ordinary watering can: To "one bucketful of boiling water use a good : sized cake of whale-oil soap and one teaspoonful of nicotine. Apply tkla mixture four nights In succession. Commence to combat all garden ene mies early In the season, before they have rendered the plants unsightly. Climbing roses grow luxuriantly In almost any sunny situation. They are strong feeders and care should be taken that thtflr growth Is not inter fered with by being planted In too close proximity to the roots of trees or strong shrubbery. While many varie ties are very hardy, yet they will flow er longer If planted where they caa be 'protected from strong winds. Man Who Must Vanish. He still breathes, the "man with soul so dead" that ho can say, not only; to himself but publicly: "What was good enough for my father is good enough for me," says a writer. Merci fully for humnn progress* there are signs abroad that give us hope of his ultimately becoming extinct. He wIU , be survived for a time, but not indefl : nltely, iiy his mate whose marvelous prehensile tenacity leads her to believe ! —and act accordingly—that what was good enough for her greatgrandmother is good enough for her. Undoubtedly; the lenst violent modernist would be Hilling to deal the blow that should rid us of them, but there is a strange | resilience In both the male and female ! of this species that makes them rise unscathed ufter the sharpest attacks on their benighted tenets. We shall have to wait the slower end that must befall them. Evolution by exclusion, I or the killing ofT of those who persist- I eutly go the wrong way is a sure pro cess If not a swift one. So knowing lilfn. to be doomed, let us not waste energy In hopeless argument with him. Describes an Ideal Dwelling. "A home is not properly a show place," suys Noble Foster Hoggson. "Bather, it Is a house and a plot of ground that, together, bring rest to the aged, peace to the strong, and Joy to the hungry, riotous spirit of youth. It is a creating—not a mere fulfilment of nn order, the result of a contract well or ill kept, a tiling to be bought and paid for by money. "Money cannot buy a home," de clares Mr! Hoggson, "but," he adds, "he who hungers for a home may, by staking counsel with those who are practiced In giving expression to hu man desires In terms of houses and their environments, achieve a result quite us happy and as truly as If he were to sit to a great portrait painter," BANISH GRAY HAIR Don't look did and gray—don't fall behind in life's procession Bring back a natural, eveo color to your hair in a perfectly health ful," simple way by using guaran teed Q-ban Hail* Restorer.
