GRASS WALKS AND STEPS

Sloping Ground Terracae Nacesaary
For th Bt Resulta.
Many pinions In England owe their
beamy in no small measure to the vel
vety crass step and walks that link
together on feature of th pinion with
another, tirass walks ro pleasant to

inony with the surroundings, whether
It be trees, shrubs or herbaceous Bow
ers.
A flower fringed grass walk Is al
ways a pleasant feature, but such a
walk must be laid wirh care. Unlike
gravel walks, which should have a con
cave surface, grass walks and steps
must be level, and this means perfect
drainage a most important item, for
If badly drained a walk of this kind
would be a source of Inconvenience aft
er heavy rains. On sloping ground ter
races are necessary. They require the
lame care that one would devote to a
well kept lawn, but ao more, once the
effect is secured.
There are few steps of this kind In
America, but they abound in English
gardens. There is no reason why they
would not remain green throughout
the entire year In some sections of .this
country, and they can be easily substi
tuted for the unsightly stone steps or
ragged dirt steps which are common.
LIGHTING YARDS ADDS TO
THE BEAUTY OF SUBURBS
Illuminating Convenience For
Horn Should B Pictureeque.
th
The use of kerosene, gasoline, home
made electricity and acetylene gas are
being carefully tested on many farms
and suburban estates, out of reach of
public service corporations, for supply
ing lights. The common use of gaso
line generators, which have now reach
ed a high sfcite of perfection, has
brought them Into prominence for out
door lighting, as well as providing bril
liant lights for the house and for cook
ing purposes. Gasoline lamps for the
entrance gate posts, for lanterns set
permanently on stable walls and for
rise within the stables and dairy barns
may be enjoyed at little cost when one
of these practical gasoline gas gen
erators has been established for Illu
minating the home and the grounds.
Without this plant for general use the
plainest types of gasoline lampss filled
and lighted the same as coal oil lamps,
may serve as the source of dependa
ble lights for yards and stables.
Many practical and enterprising
farmers who are blessed with streams
on the home grounds that can be har
nessed for the development of power
are experimenting with homemnde
electricity with very satisfactory re
sults. By damming up the stream for
satisfactory water power an inexpen
sive electrical plant may be thorough
ly practical wherever there is a stream
of water of sufficient size and fall to
turn a water wheel. One of the most
Interesting features in establishing
this form of home illumination Is the
fact that the turbine used to furnish
light will also provide power to ran
various sorts of farm machinery, In
cluding the feed mills, the wood saws,
corn sheilers, etc.
The subject of providing inexpensive
and picturesque lanterns for yards
and stables, however, need not depend
Upon the installation of extensive
plants, or even the simplest of appara
tus for homemade gas and electricity.
The cheapest form of steady burning
kerosene lamp, set within a lantern of
good type, and with a good reflector.
Is within the reach of every farm own
er and renter.
A picturesque setting will cost no
more than a lantern position carelessly
selected. An ugly post set close beside
the driveway, at a dark turn in the
garden leading to carriage sheds and
Btables, will doubtless give just as sat
isfactory results In the mere form of
illuminating as the one set within a
clump of flowering shrubs, or ever
green hedges, or dwarf spruces, but
there will be no comparison In the
. decorative value.

BOYS AND GIRLS LEND HELP
IN BEAUTIFYING CLEVELAND
Gardana Cared For by Boy and Girl
Dacraaa D'Hau nd Crime.
Fully 5.000 public school children of
Cleveland, O., gave tholr help lu the
city beautiful movement there accord
ing to the school director. Under their
system It Is possible to show In definite
terms the results Mitalnod by the
young gardeners, the efficiency of the
rork done, the results obtained and the i
amount of good accomplished. Statls- j
tics and data have Ihvii collected
showing the decrease lu files and dis
ease where gardens are planted and
the decrease in the number of Juvenile
offenders in neighborhoods well sprin
kled with gardens.
Both the Nil s and girls take an ac
tive interest in these gardens and Im
mediately after school is out In the
afternoons the children gather for
work. In Cleveland a temporary build
ing was erected for the storing of the
tools Every Saturday morning during
the summer the gardeners hold a flow

sell their produce. The flowers and
vegetables grown are the property of

the children, and they may either sell
them or take them home. Records are
kept of skill in planting, cultivation,
weeding and .products. Courses In
nature study regarding life processes
of plants, insect pests and how to com
bat them, plant diseases and how to
combat tbem are given In Cleveland
and make the garden work of real val
ue to the children.
The large gardens are radiating cen
ters for the nelghliorhoods in which
they are located. They make possible
greater efficiency, intelligence and sci
ence In the home gardens.
Interest In garden work Is cumu
lative. When the children nre prop
erly directed their ambition Is stimu
lated, and year after year they will
extend their activities and acquire
greater success.
Beautify Your Back Yard.
It is a shame that the words "back
yard" should so often call np a dismal
picture of dilapidated fence, coal ashes,
old furniture and garbage tins. Begin
now to Interest yourself and your chil
dren In the Improvement of your back
yard. Spend a dollar on tools and the
same on flower seeds and make pleas
ant, healthful occupation for many
summer hours. There are a number
of hardy annuals that flower profusely
and require no scientific care to give
good results. Perennials sown at the
proper time will give cut flowers every
year after the first It may be pleas
anter next July or August to sleep in
your back yard than In your house un
der these conditions; also you will find
that h the people living1 In a block get
Interested in gardening they will not
tolerate a lot of useless cats and dogs
about, whereby the peace of the neigh
borhood may tie enhanced.

Uses of Lime.
Lime Is seldom if ever applied to
noils by reason of its value as a direct
fertilizer. Its chief value lies In Its
unlocking, unavailable nitrogen, phos
phoric acid and potash. We usually
apply it to gardens in one of three
forms viz. quicklime, gypsum or land
plaster and wood ashes. We would
not advise applying it in any form to
soil for lawn purposes. Hotter far to
use it on the grass when it shows need
of food. It is very beneficial to Ken
tucky blue grass.

Climbing nasturtiums can be com
bined with those of dwarf habit Two

came to the wedding arrayed In a plain
white mho as a public warning that
since sho brought nothing to the mar

places these might not be used be

these tlnta In their llveites. Yellow
might not be worn, as It stood for
Jealousy; golden might not, as It
meant avarice.
The Anglo-Saxon bride went to the
wedding with her hair hanging loose
as t sign of freedom, but upon reach

it up as s sign of submission. In the
days of Shakespeare the veil began to
