Use the wool with a paper bet woco lt and the gloved hand, hot water with lots of the soap. Scour off the wood until lt looks like new, dry lt and then pro ceed with either wax or varnish.

Of course, people who live in tho country, or in small towns, where they have a generous space for a garden, will do many more things for their families thereby than they who have but a few square feet for the garden. Even people who live in closely set tled cities, where there is nothing but an ash barrel or garbage can for a background, have made the barrel to blossom like the rose. Fill a barrel with well-rotted horse manure and plant some seeds of radish and cucum bers in lt. If it has a rvarm, sunny place, you can grow your cucumbers on a rack, using care to wet the ground, not the plant, when watering, and soon you will be rewarded by a good crop of crisp and refreshing cu cumbers. If you have urns or tiles for plants in the grounds, too early for their rightful possessors, SOT.- radish and let tuce seed in them. They will grow like weeds in the warm sun and be ready to vacate the place by the time you wish to put the plants out Three sonare feet for a lettuce bed will supply the family all summer with nice crisp salad. If one likes head lettuce, lt needs more room, is worth more in time and trouble, but pays for all the time put into lt.

A small row of carrots for boiled dinners and to serve with but ter and lemon juice when cooked ten ter, it another good, wholesome vege table we must not neglect. For those who have room, an ideal arrangement is to have a clump of pie plant for early use, a bed of aspara gus and a small strawberry bed that' can furnish tho dewy berry for break-, fase. /Wi
