AWANT AD 50 ] FELIEIIEII0064000000 0 4 THE CITY TP L S 4 SO0 eom CITY PLANNING DIFFICULT. Requires Co-operative Effort to Secure Scientific Results. Lack of adequate planping for indus: trial communities is vigorgysly dis- cussed in ‘the Survey by George B. Ford, city planning expert for Newark and lecturér on that subject at Colum- bla university. He says: “Large cities are spending millions today -to widen streets, cut through new streets, provide parks and play- grounds in congested areas, almost all of which might have been sived if the city had been originally planned with foresight. Hundreds of millions are spent on hosplitals, asylums, sani- tariums, jails, health, police and fire de- partments, a large portion of which ‘could have been saved if the cities had not been so wastefully and unscien- itifically designed. 4 “For example, if the lot and block units and dimensions in sections. sur- rounding the factories which moved to Norwood and Oakley, on the outskirts of Cincinnati, had been laid out along lines which experience has shown to be most economical and desirable for workingmen’s dwellings and if provi- sion had been made for recreation for grownups as well as for children, as suggested by the English garden suburbs, the neighborhood of the fac- tories wonld now be almost exclusive- 1y occupied by the employees in those factories instead of largely by clerks . |and business mem, who commute dally to Cincinnati. And furthermore, the slum problem of Cincinnati {tself would be vastly less urgent. “If the lots were cut for the occu- pant instead of the occupant being trimmed to the lot, if streets and road- ways were designed in location, dll;ec- tlon, character and width for use and not according to obsolete precedent; if transit lines were designed with the same efficiency that the manufacturer exhibits in designing his own plant; if people could only realize that money spent in scientifically designed recre- ational facilities is paid back in many = | ways to the community, then the work- Ingmen’s residential area instead of being an eyesore and a disgrace to the community would be what the Eng- lish garden suburbs now are—the most charming and efficient housing areas to be found anywhere in the world. * “The problem is simple. It requires, first, merely an appreciation of the fact that city planning pays, and, sec- ond, it requires a co-operative effort on the part of the workingmen to secure such scientific city planning.” TREES ADD CHARM TO HOMES. Fine Mansions Found In City, but Pretty Homes In Country. A very observant traveler of unques- tioned taste observes: “I wish I could more forcibly impress upon the minds of ‘the farmer the value of attractive surroundings. Every farm home should be attractive. It is not necessary to have a fine house or fancy cottage or expensive lawn fence to make the farm home pretty. To be sure, a neat fence, a few ornaments on the house and the free use of paint help mightily, but the chief attractions can be made of trees and shrul A shady lawn and a shady dri way are always attractive. Groups of trees, shrubs or flowers nev- er fail to charm. The lawn may not be kept perfectly smooth, all the trees may not be cleanly pruned, yet the home place ornamented with them does not fail to convey the impression that peace and contentment dwell there. As a lady from the city said. ‘A pretty farmhouse suggests a- happy bird's nest.’” We do not notice the dwelling so much as we do the surroundings. If the surroundings are pretty we { know the interior of the house is all right and that it is the abode of love and contentment and all that makes life worth living. We look to the city for fine mansions, but to the country for pretty homes.” Peculiar Needs of Plants. Plant purchasers in doubt regarding the best treatment for certain plants should ask of the party from whom they buy, for he is indeed a poor nurs- eryman who does not know more of the requirements of his wares than the average garden owner. California ‘d‘m\\'s her garden vegetation from mapy lands of greatly varying cli- mgies, and it must not be supposed thafi g1l will thrive in the same garden and er like treatment. Many have pgfineeds regarding soils, heat, : amount of water and other ditjoks, and no one better knows s;e' special requirements than the ,dgahr who has produced salable plants of ‘these: gorts. 14.To Preserve Rosebuds, i Here'ls aymethod of preserving roses wh{v'c ,iti-years gone by was commonly Aopted, .

At odd times plant hardy flowering perennials along the fence near the public road. They can often be dug In the woods or back lots and will cost only a few minutes’ time to transplant. But they’ll gladden the hearts of all who see them. Hello Nation.

This'is 5,000 more than’the num- ber of our post offices, 10,000 more than the number of our railroad sta- tions and thtee times the number of telegraph offices in the country. There are nearly 7,600,000 telephone stations in the Bell system—an increase last year of over 800,000. These 'are the facts reported by the American Tele- graph & Telephone compdny in refer- ence to the Bell business. It earned 1ast year nearly $43,000,000.

No. 26 of the “Transactions” of the Cremation ‘Society -of ‘England, which has just’been - published, states that there were 1,134 cremations in Great Britain in 1912, compared with 1,023 in 1911, A 1list is given of the well known persons who were cremated during the year, including the Bishop of Truro and Rev. Charles Voysey. There are 13 crematories in this coun- ! try, of which five are municipal. Sum- marijes are given of the progress of cremation abroad. Some “Short Rea- sons for Cremation” are appended, in which the plea is advanced that it “re- moves the possibility of being buried alive.”—Dundee Advertiser. Ancient Post or ~%e-Taster. There is a vacancy in Ashton-Under- Lyne, near ‘Manchester, England, for an ale-taster. The appointment is held under the Court Leet of Ashton, and 18 one of great antiquity. It was held before the Norman conquest. The ap- pointment is in the hands of H. G. Hall, steward of the manor, who ex- plained at the meeting of the Court Leet that in times past it was an im- portant duty of the ale-taster to see that good ale was brewed. He sup- posed that the holder of the office had still the right to go “and inspect the ale if he thought it desirable. There i8 no salary attached to the post.

Hannah, 704 Mississippi Ave., Bemidji, Minn., says: “Some time ago, I was suffering severely from Backache and my kigneys wei-g not doing their work'as they should. A friend advised me to take Doan’s Kidney Pills and I got some. They restored me to health.” A Later Endorsement, March 19, 912, Mrs. Hannah was interviewed and she said: “The state- ment I hayve previously given about Doan’s Kidney Pills, still holds good. When I have used them since I have always had good results.” For sale by all dealers. Price 50 cents, Foster-Milburn Co., Buffalo, New York, sole agents for the United States.
