It will be doubly hard later in the hot sun when the roots are stronger. Don’t let tradesmen take short cuts across your little grass plot, even If you have to set up wire guards, which are less unsightly than bald.patches In the grass.

Building done these days Is quite certain to be good building; better than the average quality in times when real estate improvements are more actively carried on. This is a point worth considering as an offset, in part, to high prices for material and high wages in the building trades. Contractors are sure to take unusual pains to please those who give them business. They are not obliged, as they have been' at times, to put up with almost any labor, however incom- petept, that can be found, even among tramps and idlers. There have been periods, such as the last year of the war, when the standards were so low ered that almost anyone who could and would work at all was eagerly hired for service which needed pains taking intelligence. All the way through the various trades that contribute to the buildluj; of a dwelling or a business block thdre is a stronjf desire to make the work done so satisfactory that it will lead to more employment. All who have anything to do with real estate Im provements are anxious to promote a revival of construction, on the largest possible scale. These facts are Important. They are worthy of consideration by all who are dealing with building problems.—Ex change. 7.

Tiie prosperity of any city de pends upon the prosperity of its indi vidual citizens. 12. The more beautiful our city Is the more people will be attracted to It. 13. Home owners add to the buying power of a municipality. Tenants detract. 14. Self-respect and Independence are the greatest assets In life. Health and happiness are the children of success. NURSERY-GROWN TREES BEST ' _______________ ExcatUnt Reasons Why Wild Variatiaa Are Net Suitable for Growth In Cities. Digging wild trees for home plant ing is not successful as a rule. In the first place wild trees are likely to grow where they are crowded and are drawn out taller than they should be. Others have not had an opportunity to develop evenly and may be well shaped on one side only. Then the roots have been left to spread out at 'ram—■ STOMACH TROUBLE Mr. Marion Holcomb, of Nancy, Kv., says: “For quite * a long while I suffered with stomach trouble. I would have pains and a heavy feeling after my meals, a most disagreeable taste in my mouth. If 1 ate anything with butter, oil or grease, I would spit it up. I began to have regular sick headache. 1 had used pills and tablets, but after a course of these, I would be constipated. It just seemed to tear my stomach all up. 1 found they were no good at all for my trouble. I heard THEDFORD’S Proper Home* Important. , To provide proper hdmea for the people is one of the worthiest objects of human endeavor. Proper housing conditions have been regarded as the basis upon which all other reforms and betterments must rest. Without decent borne surroundings, light and air, proper sanitation, we do not have good citizens. All of this has been said many times - before. The surprising thing is that in this country, at least, there has been comparatively little in terest in it among well-to-do who de sire to aid with their wealth the well being of their fellow men. Money ex pended now In building serves a dou ble purpose, meets a coincident need, the need for employment and housing. long distances and the trees cannot be removed without breaking off Im portant roots, so the trees will be a long while In recovering and a large percentage will die. Nursery-grown trees are grown where they develop evenly on all sides, and are frequently transplanted and root pruned, which keeps them from growing too spindling and the roots are thus confined to a small area, so the trees can easily and safely be transplanted. In making home plantings it is a grave error to attempt to use wild trees. If many trees ace to be used It is advisable to visit a nursery and per sonally select each specimen. Urges Value of Beechnut. A writer in the Chicago Dally News makes a plea for the beechnut. A high-grade quality of this nut might easily be made a delicious article of food. The beech tree, well grown, is an object of great beauty. In Europe extensive avenues of them are found, and - the fruit carefully conserved; Many a township could easily handle along Its roadsides 10,000 noble beeches and tfs many hickories, not to speak of a large sprinkling of other nut trees and shrubs, all of them large ly taking care of themselves. Each town or county could have Its own nursery for fosterirtg a high grade of nut trees and shrubs. To Get Rid of Ants. Powdered borax sprinkled around the Infested places will exterminate both red and black ants. Powdered cloves are said to drive them away. Another plan is to grease a plate with lard and set it where these Insects abound. They prefer lard to anything else, and will forsake sugar for It. Place a few sticks around the plate for the ants to climb up on. Occasionally turn the plate bottom side up over the lire, and the ants will fall in with the melted lard. Or, use a small amount of oil of turpentine, run into the cracks with an ordinary sewing ma chine oil can. recommended very highly, so began to use it It cured me. 1 keep it in the house all the time.

' Garden work is heajth giving, es pecially for those whose occupations are indoors. To allow land that might grow food to lie idle is almost criminal, In this war-impoverished world. The products of the garden are simply in dispensable to a wholesome dietary. When home grown their quality must be better than any that can be bought. Next year should see a further in crease, instead of a further decrease, in home gardens. Life.
