Tho soil is right for' cultivation

The bulbs of the glads should be1
in tho ground tho first, of the

sive plantings in order to prolong
tho season of bloom, the flnrt
planting should bo made at this
time. '4
This is an excellent time to lift
tho clumps of Hardy chrysantho-i
munis and dlvido them. Of course
care should bo taken that the ten
der young shoots are not broken
in tho division. One must use his
own judgment as tp tho sUc of the
. divided clumps. Even a single root
will Increase and throw up several
bloom stalks; but If quantity of
bloom Is desired then do not make
the divisions too small.
In my experience It I better to
move tho plants of Galllardia in
tho spring than In tho fall; ihouith
others may prefer the fall planting.
If the work of moving and planting
ing the hardy perennials has not
been done, then U should be at
tended to without delay, as thec
plants begin to bloom early in the
season. Gattlardias want plenty of
sunshine and are not in the least

when transplanted in tho spring.
Though honesty compels one to ad

clumps of Iris in July some stalks
of Physostegia camo up with the
clumps of earth. When discovered
they were planted In a new loca

noticed the change, except that tho
bloom stalks wero a little later In
making their appearance. The
flower catalogues say that this
plant thrives In a moist location.
Lest this deter some from trying
this splendid perenninl, allow me
to add that it also does exceed
ingly well in a dry, sandy spot
where It gets tho full benefit of the

it and note tho results. Flower

i Playing I look jr'
It was a wonderful morning In
April, and Ned was thinking of
what ho might bo doing at home.
"Play hooky and don't go to
school, for It Is too nico a morn
ing said something to Ned.
"That la Just what I will do,"
said- Ned.
Ho ho' turned down a side street
where there was a grocery store.
He had five cenU In his pocket
that he was going to put In tho
savings bank, but he bought an Ice
cream cone. Boon It began to rain
and ho found shelter under a
woodshed.
Finally the rain quit and Ned
went home, ito his dinner and
slipped out of the house and got
his alrguii. It was loaded, so ho
thought h'o would have somo fun.
Homothlng said, "You are play
ing hooky from school."
Ned was shooting his gun when
he heard tho sound of breaking
glass. Ho took a few steps and
saw what do you suppose? Why,
a big store window all broken Into
pieces. An angry storekeeper came
out and said, "You havo a window
to pay for."
That night a boy told Nod what
fun they had In school that day. -
Poor Ned. He hada window to
pay for and that something Just
kept saying. "You played hooky

Mother Mouse Saves Her lainily.
One day last summer while
cleaning out a small chicken house,
I lifted a board and found beneath
It, a little nest of feathers and
straw, containing eight very tiny
bady mice. The little mother was
with them, but In a flash had scur
ried away to safety through a hold
In the back of the chicken house.
Of course I knew Ihe practical
thing to do was to kill the young
ones and set a trap for the old one,
but I am not fond of killing, and

Intervals nro certain to produce
gorgeous color in the garden be
ginning with July and. continuing
through the season. Thoy also fur
nish one of tho most popular ma
terials for cut flowers. There are
now strains of gladiolus which may
be raised from seed and give bloom
the first year if sown early. The
named varieties, however, are by
fur the most satisfactory.
Dahllns arc now rivals of the
chrysanthemum in their huge size
and great variety of form, resem
bling tho chrysanthemum In giving
small button-llkkc blooms, single
and anemone types, up to huge
on bbages as' big as one's head.
Dahlias may bo grown from seed
as annuals as easily aa zinnias.
Tho big fellows need an early start
and should be sown by April, at
least, in order to give a season of
bloom worth while, Tho small
bedding types such 'as Coltness hy
brids need not bo sown until May
1 outdoors. They will come into
bloom the latter part, of July or
early In August. Mown in March,
however, they will get going In
June and furnish a sheet of color
all summer. Thoy are as colorful
and as freo blooming as tho
.Inn las.
( Growing plants are furnished
until Into June and the dry tubers
are sent out ca rati or. (There Js little
to cIiooho between them as to gar
den success. Homo gardeners pre
fer to buy the growing plants
which have been propagated from
cuttings and others prefer the
roots. They bloom equally quickly.
besides I was curious to see how
the mother mouse would meet this
emergency In her family life; so I
quickly wont outsldo tho coop and
looked in through a knot hole,
keeping very quiet.
In less than a mlnuto tho old
mouse flashed back through the
hole from which sho had gone
away. Who was frantic with alarm
aud anxiety upon finding her home
uncovered and her young in dan
ger, and ran wildly back and forth
a tlmo or two. Then she found the
nest, and Instantly seizing one
babe in her mouth, rushed out
with It.
I could not see where sho went,
but In less time than It takes to
tell It, sho was back after another
llttlo one. She carried out three of
them, then gathered up a mouthful
of bedding :and whisked out with
that, probably thinking it danger
ous for tho children to lie nu
covcred. Then tho other five were carried
away, ono after tho other, in the
greatest haste.
I noticed that the llttlo mice kept
very stiff and straight as they were
being carried, like llttlo sticks, and
the mother mouse did not carry
them by the back of the neck, as a
cat carries her kittens. Hhe took
them up by whatever part was
handiest a hind leg, a front leg, a
shoulder, or back.
To me It was a very interacting
little In si dent, allowing this humble
little mother's God-g!ven love for
her helpless llttlo ones, and the
promptness and efficiency with
which she rescued them from their
perilous situation. Ktla M. Morse,
