To the Editor of The Gazette: As you refer quite often to dangerous crossings, with your per mission 1 wOuid like to discuss briefly one that I. consider tbe most dangerous in existence (made so al together by our own carlessnessi. It is dangerous notwithstanding the fact that a great warning stands out in plain view of .everybody Stop, Look, Listen and Think. There Is not another one like it in existence. If you wait until you get too Close the grade approaching is so steep that you cannot stop. It Is im possible to avoid the crasn. I hear somebody asking, "Where in the world Is that crossing? I will answer, "It Is just ahead or every living soul and all will have to cross by that same route. There is. I belive, a chance for some peo ple to slow down or put on brakes and delay the approaching clash Tor a little while, but only for a while. You can't escape long at the very best. As we all have to go over this dangerous route, does It not seem that we should, , to do the wise thing, begin to prepare now by read ing the sign again Stop, Look, Listed, Think.

A good dahlia must bloom from July until frost; and if it does not. discard it I saw some beautiful Cowers on some plants in July and August, very double, fine striped. By the middle of October the flowers were half the Bize; what were striped be fore, at that time were of one color. and nearly single. We had Keyne's White for several years; it grew four feet tall; last year it grew eight and ten feet. A plant like that Is no more good. Dahlias can be erown from seeds: thegrow stronger than from cuttings and roots, onlv it In harH in ffni irrnvl seeds now ... i w v, a ! almond set, Mrs. B.

' . article does not sell 25-cent packets for 10 cents. Jf you avant dahlia roots for next 'year, plant them in small pots and let them remain all summer. Keep them over winter like the old roots; and start them again in the spring. I do not say this Is absolute, but it is the best way to raise dahlias so far. The specialist does it, and it is my experience since 1867. It lb claimed by dahlia growers that dividing the roots will degenerate almost all the varieties; that is the reason we have such a few good flowers. Of course a good many will believe that a cutting will not flower and make roots to keep over winter, but It ia not true; they were raised that way many years ago, and that is the way they are raised today, in Eng land, France, Germany and other coun tries except the United States. It is the reason, too, that the Ameri cans do not care much for dahlias; they have been deceived too much. They buy old roota and get an old degenerate plant, sometimes six feet Ull and more, and not a blossom in sight In October, when the nights are coo i, ine- degenerate shows buds, and Three best bronze bloom?, china bon-bon dish, Mrs. C.
