O
SCHOOL GROUND BETTERMENT
What Can Be Done to Mako Common
Property Attractive.
While we are Imbued with the gar
dening fever let us look to the district
school yard and note if it has nil wo
could wish for In tho way of plaut
life; If not, what can you do to mako
It more interesting, instructive or at
tractive? Of courso them ore school
yards whero there Is uot sufficient
space for flowers, othors where the
school board has covered the gurdeu
space with temporary buildings nnd
still others where they have built so
ugly and unsightly or Insiilliclently ns
to disgust tho neighborhood residents,
who will do nothing until the wrong
Is righted.
As a rule, however, school yards
In geucrnl aro capablo of pleasing ef
fects by tho Judicious planting of
tree, shrub and vino. Whore buch is
tho case it is well to b-ar in mind
that it is the otio piece of neighborhood
property In which nil are Interested,
nil have a common ownership nnd th.it
upon all Its condition retloets credit or
criticism. What Is the condition of
your school yard? Can you individual
ly or with your neighbors colleetlroly
do nnythlng to improvo it? If so, act
that it may bo a credit and a comfort
to you and yours.
To Rid Walks of Weeo..
To rid the walks of weeds boil two
pounds of arsenic and four pounds of
palsoda In six gallons of water. To
every gallon of the boiling mixture add
throe gallons of cold water and sprin
kle it over the walks while It le warm
tuid when the walka arc dry.

m UNIFORMS
Marshfleld City Council Dis
cusses Officers' Salaries and
Need of Being Uniformed.
Tho gun play and fracas at the
Marshfleld ball grounds last Sunday
was made the subject of discussion
at the city council last evening, J. W.
Bennett appearing and using it as
an Illustration of the necessity of
having officers wear uniforms or
something to plainly show that they
aro policemen. The concensus of
opinion was that the ofllcers should
wear uniforms but a proposal to
raiso the salaries was laid over until
the next meeting and meanwhile the
city attorney is to draw up an ordin
ance prescribing the uniform to be
worn.
Mayor E. E. Straw said that the
two night watchmen aro not being
paid enough and that Nlghtwatchman
Walter Condron had informed him
that he (Condron) would quit unless
ho received more than $75 per
month, tho present salary. Mr. Con
dron, Mayor Straw said, declared
that it was essential for the safety
of tho public as well as the safety
of tho officers that they be garbed
so as to be easily distinguishable
In a crowd. As to the gun play at tho
baseball grounds, Mayor Straw said
that ho and Mr. Condron believe If
Condron hadn't drawn a gun there
would have been a riot and fifteen or
twenty fights.
J. W. Bennett's View.
J. W. Bennett said that the scene
at tho ball grounds hnd impressed
him with the necessity of the ofllcers
being garbed so that the public
could easily recognize them. He
said that all of the progressive towns
and cities of the country had their
ofllcers uniformed and he thought
Marshfleld should do likewise. He
said that ho personally would favor
tho city defraying tho expense of the
uniforms as tho officers were not be
ing paid sufllclent to warrant their
buying their own uniforms.
Councilman Lockhart moved thnt
the salaries of the two night watch
men be Increased from $75 to $90
per month and that they he required
to buy their own uniforms. lie said
that tho city was being excellently
patrolled and that as long as tho city
had a good force, it should retain
them. Mayor Straw concurred with
this view but Councilinon Nelson and
Savage thought that It would be best
to delay action on the matter until
a full board was prcsont, Councllmen
Sacchl and Flanagan being absent
last night.
Marshal J. W. Carter now receives
$100 per month but Councilman
Lockhart was opposed to granting
him a proportionate Increaso with
that proposed for the two night
watchman.
At present, the officers' receive In
addition to their salary $1 for each
arrest they make where tho prisoner
is convicted. This fee system has not
been very lucrative recently, It was
stated.
