Advice for Dahlia Growers
No development in the plant
world lias been more remarkable
than that of the dahlia in recent
yoars. We now have them from
12-foot giants with blooms ten in
ches In diameter to little fellows 18
Inches tall for bedding plants.
Dahlias, nlthough tuberous rooted
perennials, are easily grown as an
nuals, blooming the first yenr from
seed after which the roots may be
kept for years.
The seedlings show a great va
riety of coloring and from a packet
of seed of a fine strain you may
gain some prize winners nnd all
will bo handsome plants. Tho
named varieties are the cream ot
thousands of seedlings which have
been propagated.
The low-growing bedding types
sold under various mimes such as
niicnon. miniature, star ana otner
titles ore well worth a trial by every
nardencr as the flowering nnmml.i,
coming along with the asters and
K-iving. two months of nioom from
an early, start. Theso .bedding
strains give, as a rule, single
flowers about tnrco inches across
which are mngnlficont niatorlul for
cutting.
Dahlias grow as easily ns Jinnias
from seed and the seeds look some
thing alike. They should 1)6 start
ed early in a hotbed or Indoors
and transplanted Into their out
door quarters ns soon as tho trort
soason Is past. Dahlias like mod
erately' rich soil. Tt is aulto pos
sible to overfeed them nnd cause
them to produce too mnny leaves
but thoy must hno water and cool
feet to flourish. They grow In their
native haunts in Mexico with their
heads In the sun nnd their, feet in
the cool depths of surrounding ver
dure. Give a dahlia a good supply of
water with fair soli nnd it will
flourish. Once it becomes dry and
tho growth becomes woody It Is
gone ns n bloomer. Tho proper
treatment then Is to cut down the
woody stalk nnd now growth will
spring up to givo bloom. Try some
of the bedding dnhllnn from seed
this year. They aro novel and beau
tiful plnnts for bods or , border
groups.
It will bo an easy matter to
select tho best color nnd keep the
roots nnd thus build-up a strain for
your garden. ,

HpHIS charming little homo design. 6-F -6, solves S
problem-no that has puzzled architects for
years. This problem has beer to provide really mod
ern living accommodations In the second story of a
true Dutch Colonial home. The beautiful roof lines
In this the original American bungalow have In
cited the admiration and despair tf architects, for -it
has not been considered desirable in true Dutch
Colonial architecture to pierce the beautiful sweep of
the roof 'for dormer windows. To do this "would
destroy one ot the moat Important elements In Us
beauty.
However, after long study this plan bas been
evolved as a real solution. The key to the solu
tion Is In the location of the stairs. Tou will see
that by this means two bedrooms and a commodious
bath are included under the roof, each with adequate
light and cross-circulation As a result of this ar
rangement, the house 'Is not a modern hybrid horror
a "Dutch Colonial" sooaUed but an authentic
Dutch Colonial house of the type -built by the old
Dutch farmers in Che district near what la now New
York City.
Importance of Little Things
i Really successful small house designs often depend
enormously xm the proper working out of things
which seem of minor consequence, yet over which
the architect labors with greatest care. For example.
In this little house one of the details whioh is essen
tial Is the accuracy of the curve of the roof slope at
the eaves. This is of simple, inexpensive construc
tion, but like most simple things that are good must
be right. ...
f JfiCONO: FLOOR. PIAS -
This house should prove Inexpensive to build for
waste space has been eliminated. There is no attic,
but an adequate storage room Is provided, ftor is
there a needlessly large cellar. The space lis ade
quate for all the usual things that are put tn the
basement. . If the owner desires a full basement it
may be provided. The wealth of closet space win de
light -the housewife. . The arrangement of the rooms
Is unusually fine, especially for the home Vudlder
who wishes to make the most of the garden at the
rear. There Id a first story bed room.
Interesting Material
The construction is of wood frame wttb a finish
of wide shingles excepting on the front wall, where
stucco Is used a shingle roof, cement base course,
and stone steps. . . ,;. (
The house Is designed to face east or south. It
may be reversed for other facings. It may be built
on a BO foot lot. ,

KEEP. YOUR LAWN FREE FROM HOLES
Rolling Will Help, but Deeper Depressions Must Be Filled
- i with Earth and Reseedcd
It Is surprising how a lawn that
you left last full as .level as a
table has ' developed depressions
over winter. Kven the best ot them
will do it.
The settlement or the soil after
the winter ruins is Co blame for
some of it. Then, too, it Is Impos
sible to produce an exactly uniform
density and texture of suil and for
a few years alter the lawn is made
these small depressions will occur
and will have to be remedied. Some
of these limy be remedied by the
use ot tno lawn roller but do not
use the roller when tho soil Is so
wet as to be muddy and enslly
yielding. This is likely to Increase
the difficulty. i i
Iho best method is to wheel a
barrow or new soil to tho lawn and
fill In tho depressions, adding
fertilizer and seeding nnd then apply
tllo roller to bring it to a level with
its 'surroundings. This spring
patching needs annual care until
SAYS HE'S NO DEAD HEKO
the sod Is thoroughly established.
"Cut, watered, and rolled for 300
years," is an English lawn motto.
It ought tq'yo a good lawn after
all that. V can do it in throe
years with good grass seed, good
preparation of the soil In the way
of pulverizing, leveling and adding
fertilizing. Tho cutting and roll
ing is merely incidental tho main
tenance part of it. -
All wo need to remember Is that
tho grass is a plant and that it
needs tho same attention as any
other plnnt to do its best. It must
have fertility,, moisture, and cut
ting. The best fertilizer. lor grass
is one that will maintnin a porous
surface and give the required food.
There is no one standard, stnple
fertilizer for grass. The fertilizer
required depends upon the kind of
soil and the kind of grass. A good
denier will tell you.
Dry soilsneed a potash fortlllzer.
Moist soils aro likely -to need phos
phnto fertilizer and nitrogen is al
ways an essential. , ,

Labor-Saving Devices and
Laziness
They Give Mother.. Time to
Head Poetry nnd Go Joy
Biding But What Aro Thoy
Doing to Her Health?
Labor saving' devices are turning
mother Into engineer Instead ot a
day laborer. They aro giving her
time to read puetry and go Joy
riding; but what are they doing
to her health? -
The housewife used to get her
"doily dozen" swinging a broom,
bending her knees over the scrub
bing, or strengthening the muscles
ot her back and abdomen by vig
orous exercise over the wash
board. Pressing tho button has
Us advantages, we concede, but
isn't there danger that It makes us
lazyr ane nuto contributes its
share toward our flabby muscles.
If instead ot such healthful exor
cises ns sweeping, scrubbing and
doing wnshings, wo would becomo
addicts of hiking, horseback rid
ing and athletic sports, modern In
vention might go on as It pleases
without harming the mothers of
tho raoe.
The housewife la not alone In be
coming a candidate for scoldings
by the dootor. The business woman
is cultivating the ' same lazy
habits. She would rather wait five
minutes for a street oar or an elo
Vator than to walk a block or . a
flight. '.
Rocent statistics show us that
women, are getting the taxi habit.
Short runs with women passengers
are increasing at an alarming rate.
Fifth Ave. Welcomes
the Linen Parasol
Linen in all the pastel shades has
been introduced for Palm Beach
shoes, says the Dry Goods Econo
mist, and now colored linens are
being U8nd for parasols, tho wooden
handles or which are usually enam
eled in pink, blue, light green or
Mauve, ' A linen parasol seen on
I ifth Avenue had alternate sec
tions of pink and blue linen with
a pink enameled wood handle.
No fabric " nowadays Is safe' in
presuming that it shall be emnlov
cd Just for millinery or Just for
snoes, or whatever the wearing niv
parel may be. In fact, straw was
sponsored this season for, shoes,
and now ono finds the entire straw
family represented among the new
parasols. A 'bell-shaped parasol
with undulating edge was seen at
one of -the largo Fifth Avenue
stores developed in blue silk hnlr

are used in thlB wise also.
Household Hints

If the Ironing board Is attached
to the wall with hinges built In a.

it .is out of sight when not In use.

The experienced housewife usually
keens a small strainer tn the sink
to catch small particles of food
which might block the drain.

Tho amount of pure silk In
