As important as. it is, there is no use of one making it the sole object. Let it play; its part, but don t let it enwd out all the other finer things f life, such as the aporeciation of beau ty: Beautiful. home grounds is soniething that all ' of us may have, whether rich "or poor, or have small or large grounds, be cause it does not take a large amount of money for eneugh trees and shrubbery to remake the appearance of the home. Every person who improves his home grounds with trees, shrubs bery, flowers and grass influences others to do likewise. There is something about it that is hatch ing. When a neighbor sees his friend remake the appearance of his. home by properly : planting the grounds, v it automatically creates a desire on- his part to 1 improve rs own grounds. It is like tno snowball that is started down th hill, the farther it goes the bigger it tets. Therefore let those who improve and plant the home' grounds do the best job possible," not only for the sake of his own place but for the ef fect it will have on others doing this kind of work.
