Knapp, founder of exteiyion work once Mid, ,,lvhe. fartt * in.u?t tie made a place of bouuty, ho attractive that every passing stranger Inquire*, 'who lives .in that lovely home?' The house is minor consideration?the gorgeous setting of trees and shrubbery holds the eye." Throughout Kershaw county the home demonstration club women and others are using native plants and shrubs for beautifying their farm homes. Mrs. Dora Dee Walker, production and conservation specialist from Winthrop college, gives the following information in her May exterior beautiflcation letter: "May is tho joyous month of the year, when old and young are working in their (lower gardens. Pcyrenniuls are now coming into bloom, but the various bulbous flowers are putting forth e-very effort to distract our attention from their fair sisters. "It is now safe to set your bedding plants such as verbenas, geraniums, coleos and all other bedding plants. Most of the annuals which we sowed earlier should be thinned out now and they will produce splendid, symmetrical plants if thc;y are given sufficient space; for example sweet alyssum, zinnias, marigolds, poppies and phlox should be at least 1 foot apart, although for most of them 2 feet would cause still better specimen plants. "Cosmos should bo planted 3 feet apart. A good symmetrical plant is more beautiful than an overcrowded leggy specimen. Begin spraying your roses this month with Bordeaux mixture or dpst with 1) parts of dusting sulphur and 1 part of arsenate of lead well mixed together. Tobacco dust may be added to this mixture for controlling aphis. "Broad leaf evergreens such as rhododendron, mountain laurel, and all acid loving plants, should be liberally mulched with leaf mold; you will find that this covering maintains these shrubs successfully far away from their native haunts in the woodlands. "Tender water lilies may now be placed in the pools. It is safest to put out tho tenderest varieties after the 10th of May?a box 3x4x1 feet is usually right for each plant. Fill the box with a mixture of 2 parts loam and 1 part half rotted'cow manure. Cover this with a thin layer of sand to keep the fish from burrowing irvto the boxes and making the water muddy. There is no advantage in planting before the water becomes somewhat warmed by the sun. Water lilies need new soil each year. "Hardy water lilies bloom in the day time, but the tender kinds are divided into two sections, day blooming and night blooming. All the tender kinds have thiclii swollen root stocks, while the hardy species, with one or two exceptions, have thick, fleshy rhizomes. "The tender water lilies are more profuse blooming, bearing much larger dowers than the hardy ones, and make better cut flowers, blooming until frost in all colors but yellow. Fish should be put in the lily pool as soon as possible to catch the early crop of mosquitoes. "Look out for the Iris borer?it is a night-flying moth which lays its eggs on the leaf just before blooming time. The larva hatches and eats its way down to the root, leaving n translucent trail. At this time he can be seen and can be very easi.y crushed' or pinched, but if allowed to enter the roots he will eat the entire i rhizome away, then the leaves tall ! apart and the plant dies. Nothing can bo done except follow his trail and crush him with the fingers. "Annuals may be interspersed to add color and variety to the garden. Some of the choicest flowers found iii all the world come and go in a sing'.o season. They spring from seed, grow, flower, produce their seed in turn and then die within one garden year. These are the annuals and they may he depended upon to make a good display of bloom the year they are sowed. Another advantage of annuals is the more tho blooms are picked the more they blossom. "Some one has said that annuals are nature's missionaries constantly at work attempting to cover some ug.y scar which civilized man has made :n his struggle to wrest from the earth the living which' he claims she owis ! him."

Reports from Texas are to the effect that germination of cotton is be-, ing much retarded by cool nights, while many countries are suffering from wet soils hampering normal planting progress. A Brilliant Diagnostic Layman During his long experience, as physician and surgeon, Dr. L. B. Owens never made a safer and more unimpeachable diagnosis of a medical case than did the editorial writer of The State in diagnosing Mayor Owens. It was "a gem of purest ray serene." We are , still wondering ! wthether he was a success or failure in his political job. Be that as it | may, the blending of strength and | weakness is so perfect that no enemy can point the -finger of scorn, and no friend will throw his enthusiastic cap towards the skies. There is no mistaking the preponderant sentiment of the voters. Dr. Owens has been on the griddle 8 years, and beat three belligerent competitors combined, for another 4-year term. This does not necessarily mean that he is a brilliant executive. But it does mean, in no unmistakable terms, that he is the 'kind of mayor the people of Columbia wish. Take him, as the slang goes, up one side and down the other, he is a rather I unique character, and needs no gu^fd* | ian. A good surgeon, he is a better j politician.?Calhoun Times.
