Right Use of the Flag
It Should Never Be Permitted to Touch the Ground, Nor
Draped as a Decoration
In these days when every household should have u flag, and should fly It
upon every occuslon offered, Its correct use should be known to all. The
following, from the National Geographic Magazine, tells the proper usage
Succinctly: I -''
"While there Is no federal law In force pertaining to the manner of dis
playing, hanging, or saluting the United States flag, or prescribing any cere
monies that should be observed, there are many regulations und usages of
national force bearing on the subject.
"In raising the flag It should never be rolled up and hoisted to the top of
the staff before unfurling. Instead, the fly should be free during the act of
hoisting, which should be done quickly. It should be tuken in slowly and
with dignity. It should not be allowed to touch the ground on shore, nor
should it be permitted to trail in the dust. It should not be hung where It
can be Contaminated or soiled easily, or draped over chairs or benches for
seating purposes, and no object or emblem of any kind should be placed upon
it or ubove It.
"A common but regrettable practice at public meetings Is to drape the
Hag like a tablecloth over the speaker's table and then place on the flag a
pitcher of ice water, flowers, books, etc.
"The ling should not be festooned over doorways or arches. Alwuys
let the flag hang straight. Do not tie It in n bow knot. Where colors are
desired for decorative purposes, use red, white and blue bunting.
"The flag should not be hoisted upside down, other than as u signal of
distress at sea.
"International usage forbids the display of the flag of one nation above
that of any other with which It Is at peace. When the flags of two or more
nations art; displayed, they should be on separate staffs, or on separate hal
yards of equal size and on the same level.
"The Hug should never be raised or lowered by any mechanical appliance.
"When the national colors are pussing on parade, or In review, the spec
tator should, If walking, hult, and If sitting arise and stand at attention und
uncover.
"When tings are used in unveiling a statue or monument they should
not be allowed to fall to the ground, but should be carried aloft to wave out,
forming a distinctive feature during the remainder of the ceremony.
"Where the national flag Is displayed with state or other tings, It should
be given the place of honor on the right. Its use should be confined as much
ns possible to its display upon the staff. Where used -as it banner, the union
should fly to the north In streets running east and west, and to the east In
streets running north and south.
"Old, faded, or wornout Hugs should not be used for banners or other
secondary purposes.
"When no longer lit for display, the flag should be destroyed privately,
preferably by burning or other methods lacking the suggestion of irreverence
or disrespect.
"A flag or an ensign at half-mast Is the unlversul sign of mourning.
Before being placed at half-most the flog must always be raised to the stop of
the staff, and before It is lowered from half-mast It must likewise be hoisted
to the top."

Fifteen Cities in 1920
May Reach a Population
In Excess of 500,000
There will certainly be ten Amer
ican cities, when the 1020 census count
is made, that will have it population
in excess of 500,000, and there may
be as many as fifteen that will pass
the half-mllllon population score,
states a writer in the Baltimore
American. Baltimore is going to be
in the big ten, but where along In
the big ten? New York, Chicago and
Philadelphia will be the three largest
cities In the order named. But what
city will occupy fourth place? And
Just what place In the first ten col
umn will Baltimore occupy? The
question may seem trivial, but it Is
a question In which the people of at
least five cities, Baltimore being In
cluded In the five, are even now tak
ing a lively Interest.
The live cities that will be In com
petition for fourth place are Balti
more, Boston, St. Louis, Detroit and
Cleveland. The city that Is most
likely to bent Baltimore In the race
for fourth place Is Detroit, which now
hns an estimated population of 825,
000. Estimated populations some
times shrink tremendously when the
government count Is made, and It may
be so with the spurty metropolis of
Michigan. St. Louis Is claiming a
1018 population of 850,000, but this
also Is subject to possible shrinkage,
as It is 10.1,000 greater than the 1910
score. Boston has not extended her
boundary lines and Is not making any
claim to extraordinary population
growth. The New England city does
elnlm nil increase of 100,000 over the
11110 count, however, or n present
population of 707,000.
It seems to be a warranted conclu
sion that Baltimore must score above
800,000 to get fourth place In the col
umn. If the Baltimore score should
be around, say, 750,000, the Orenter
Baltimore may not be located nbove
seventh place und may be In eighth
position, or only two places from bot
tom. But the Baltimore count may

"Why, the paper up In Cohoes said
you wanted to give me a trial and
so here I am," explained Hogan. "I've
been pitching semlpro ball up home,
and I guess you've heard about me.
I'm a machinist by trade."
McGraw had never dreamed of Ho
gan, but he liked the youngster's
looks, and, most of all, he took a
fancy to the name of Hogan. Mc
Graw would like to surround himself
with Doyles, McCarthys and Hogans,
so he decided to give Mike a chance,
and Mike went to Martin.
So there Is something In a name

Yields In Different Sections Vary
Greatly Secure Plants From Re
liable Nurseryman.
(Prepared by the United rjtatea Depart
ment of Agriculture.)
Yields from raspberry plantations
vary greatly according to the varieties
raised, the care given them, and the
conditions under which they are grown.
In the eastern United States It Is
agreed generally that In sections to
which they are adapted the purple
sorts are the most productive, the
blackcaps next, and the red varieties
the least productive. Records of red
raspberry growers In New York State
Indicate that the average yield Is be
tween 1,800 and 1,400 quarts per acre,
while the best fields go as high as 4,000
quarts. Black raspberries In the same
state average between 1,400 quarts
per acre, and the purple varieties aver
age between 1.700 and 2,300 quarts.
Yields In different sections as well as
from different varieties vary greatly.
Plants of the different varieties of
raspberries may be secured from any
reliable nursery nnd usually In start-
ng a new plantation this is done.
Many grower, having an established
plantation propagate their own stock.
To propngnte new plants, the tips
of the new canes of black raspberries
and of the purple varieties now under
cultivation should be burled In moist
soil In late summer. By the following
spring, the tips will have rooted and
formed good plants. The cane then
should be severed, leaving four to
eight inches of cane with the new
plant which is to be set In the field.
If the tips of the canes of black and
purple varieties are pinched off when
they are about 12 Inches high, the
canes will branch freely and a large
number of tips for burying will be se
cured. With many growers the first
crop from both block and purple rasp
berry plantations Is a crop of plants.
In fnct, a large part of the plants dis
tributed by nurserymen are produced
In this way by raspberry growers, who
In turn sell them to nurserymen.
Red raspberries send up new canes
from the base of the old canes, as do
black and purple varieties. In addi
tion, they send up suckers from un
derground roots at various distances
from the crown of the parent plant.
In stnrtlng a new plantation the strong
est of these suckers are used. If a
quantity of plants for setting Is needed
each year for several years, it may
prove desirable to take up all plants
In a given part of the Held, both the
old ones and the suckers. By the fol
lowing year, a solid stand of plants
suitable for setting will have sprung
up from the pieces of roots left In the
Harvesting Berries for a Cannery.
ground. When these are dug and the
ground Is rich, another stand will grow
for the following year. If this prac
tice is followed, the fruiting planta
tion need not be disturbed by digging
up sucker plants. Sometimes growers
of the Marlboro and Ruby varieties
wait until suckers appear In the spring
and set these out Such plants will be
small, but should be very free from
Insects and dlsenses.
Raspberries may be propagated also
by cuttings of the roots or canes If
necessary. In ordinary practice, how
ever, cuttings of either roots or canes
are rarely used.
