Relieres the congettion, prevents complications* and hastens recovery. 666 ia a Prescription for Colds, Grippe, Flu, Dengue, (Prepared by the United States Department of Agriculture.) One of the best methods of protect ing orchards and young trees from winter damage by rabbits is to sur round the trunks with cylinders made from woven wire or veneer wood. If poultry netting is used. It may be of 1-inch mesh made from No. 20 galvan- ized-iron wire. This comes In rolls 18 inches wide. To make a protecting cylinder for saplings, the United States Department of Agriculture says, cut off a section 1 foot in length and place It around the tree in the form of a cylinder, fastening it in sev eral places by twisting together the projecting ends of wire. This will serve, but It may be improved some what by setting two or three stakes Inside to prevent rabbits from press ing It In, or moving it on the ground I until they can nibble on the tree. I Strips of veneer wood bent about the trees and tied have the advantage of preventing any nibbling through, and if they are pressed into the ground a short distance will also keep out mice. But these also furnish de sirable retreats for insects and should be removed each year. Wire screens can be left until the tree is safe from rabbits depredations. Hunting keeps down the rabbit pop ulation in many areas, and trapping and poisoning are also effective. The difficulty In poisoning Is the danger to | children and animals. To offset this | danger In some degree, the biological I survey suggests that cottontail rabbits may be baited with twigs cut from ap- I pie trees and dipped in or thinly coat- : ed with starch-strychnlne poison. i The fact that epizootic diseases (those which attack man^ animals at : the same time) often destroy great , numbers of cottontails has led many ' people to expect that an epizootic could be started artificially, and that i when the animals become excessively abundant In any locality it should be possible to inoculate them with some I micro-organism. The biological survey ! has had many requests for such bac- , terial preparations, but to date it has replied to all that all attempts to spread contagious diseases artlticially among wild rabbits have failed to give practical results. | Fende Great Adjunct to Exterior of Home Many a rear lawn and even some of the front yards are now hemmed In with fences, but they are not mere ly Installed as something useful, with out regard to the ornamental side, not these modern fences. The hohie owner picks his fence as carefully as he does his light fixtures and wall decorations. He calls in an experienced fence “architect” to build the proper type. “Custom built” fences are now a commodity that are called for frequently. There seems to be as many styles in fences as in frocks nowadays, for various fashions in gardens must be matched in fenc ing. Gardens are no longer simple or nondescript, however, but demand many accessories aside from fences, pergolas, trellises, birdhouses that must match the fence, If there be one. A popular type fence is of orna mental woven wire, with red cedar posts. A chain link lawn fence also Is In demand, for certain type yards or gardens, with the attractive and ornamental wooden .fences painted white In trellis effect, or In quaint picket fashion, with graceful gates or archways that gleam enticingly through vines and tall shrubbery, when gar dens are luxuriant in the summer. The old-fashioned type of ornamen tal miniature wire fence inclosures for flower beds also are back in fashion again, and the formal garden takes on an added “antique” note, with fenced- in flower pots.

C., and de scribed in deed from George Kirk patrick and wife to B. F. Horton, said deed being dated September 4, Coarse Straw Excellent to Mulch Strawberries Coarse straw is generally thought of as the best material to use in mulching strawberries. It is not alto gether necessary, however, because any coarse straw-like material can be used, but no matter what the ma terial Is, It should be free from grass, weed, or grain seeds. Marsh hay Is sometimes used and Is all right if it is of a coarse nature. Some think that leaves can be used, but they mat down too close to the surface of the ground and are apt to smother out the strawberry plants, and, unless they are used in connection with something that is very coarse that will keep them from matting, they should not be used. Principle That Pays in City Improvement The beauty of many European cities is due to the fact that long ago they adopted the principle of excess con demnation, and were thus enabled not only to save money on the cost of the work, but to Insure that Its surround ings be In harmony with the plan after they had passed back Into private hands. One of the most noted exam ples of the practice of excess con demnation is the thoroughfare in Lon don called Kingsway, which was cut through the heart of a slum quarter, and now is lined by some of the very finest buildings in the world. At its foot Is situated the Bush building,' built by American capital, but never-! theless a structure In which all Lon-! don takes pride. If a similar oppor-l tunity were given American cities they too could create similar improve ments with assurance that the taxpay ers’ money would not be spent in vain. —Detroit News.

Subscribe for the Marion Progress Pruning During Dormant Season May Be Problem Any time during the dormant season when men may work comfortably out of doors, the pruning work may be carried on with profit. With large or chards one of the main problems con fronting the grower Is the matter of securing labor for the pruning work. The question Is not, therefore, so much a problem of when It should be done as It is a matter of getting the pruning done. It Is true, however, that labor may usually be secured with less difficulty during the fall and winter than during the early spring just as growth is starting. Horticultural Facts Hailed as Town Benefactor. To Exeter in 1826 came a man from some Western state to visit a sister. He had gone West long years before. Exeter had up to that time given little One of the firtt things you >vill notice when yon drive the new Ford is the quick, effective, silent action of its six-brake system. This system gives yon the highest degree of safety and reliability because the four- wheel service brakes and the separate emergency or park ing brakes are all of the mechanical, internal ex panding type, with bndtmg surfaces fully enclosed for protection against mnd, water, sand, etc. Hie many advantages of this type of braking system have long been recognized. They are brought to you in the new Ford through a series of mechanical im> provements embodying much that is new in desi^ and manufacture. A particu larly unique feature is the simple way by which a spe cial drum has been con structed to permit the use of two sets of internal brakes on the rear wheels. A further improvement in braking performance is effected by the self-center- ing feature of the four- wheel brakes — an exclusive Ford de velopment. Through this eonstmction, the entire surface of the shoe is brought in steady, unifcRtm contact with the drum the instant you press your foot on the brake pedal. This prevents screeching and howling and makes the Ford brakes unusually silent in operation. Another feature of the Ford brakes is the ease of adjustment. The four-wheel brakes are adjusted by turning a screw conveniently located on the outside of each brake plate. This screw is so notched that all four brakes can be set alike Simply by listening to the ^^clicks.’’ The emergency or park ing brakes on the new Ford require little attention. How ever, should they need ad justment at any time, con sult your Ford dealer for prompt, courteous, and eco nomical service. He works under close factory super- vision and he has l^n spe cially trained and equipped to help you get the greatest possible use from your car over the longest period of time at a mini mum of trouble and expense.
