Properly Conducted, They Have Proved a Great Success. School gardens are increasing by leaps and bounds, Children show great interest in gardening, and there seems a natural love of flowers and plants in almost every child. School gardens are a great success where properly conducted and are in- creasing at such a rapid rate that it is difficult to keep a record of their prog- ress, California is one of the states leading in the encouragement of school gar- dens, and the city of Los Angeles will devote about eighteen acres of land in vacant lots to school gardens. The in- terest of the 10,000 children working in the gardens has been sufficient to en- courage the city to devote $35,000 to the wundertaking, employing many teachers, with a superintendent to take charge of the work. In many schools throughout the United States and Can- ada agriculture is now one of the regu lar school courses. The city of Cleveland, O., is credited with starting the present school garden movement. New York city is in line, owing to the determined energy of a woman, Mrs. Henry Parsons, now a member of the school board. Philadel- phia has special garden teachers, and 80 have other cities, and the federal government is encouraging the move ment, School gardens give the children ex ercise in the open air at the time it is needed.

He also advocates boulevard lighting from brackets attached to buildings, so as to do away with all poles, and says the supports for trolley wires should also be attached to buildings of the most congested district along Hamilton street. Community Use of Schoolhouses. The remarkable increase in the use of school buildings for community pur- poses in districts maintaining a high school or state graded school is shown by the tabulation which appears be- low. The bureau of civic and social center development of the extension division of the University of Wiscon- sin sent out a questionnaire to each of the high school and state graded school principals of Wisconsin during four successive years, with the results shown in the table: 1910- 1912- 1918- 1914~ . 18 14 15 Number of responses.. 178 441 491 613 Schoolhouses .used as community centers.. 86 265 884 609 Total number of com- munity meetings.....

Expert Gives Advice and Commission Takes Measures to Improve Town. Energetic measures for the improve- ment of Allentown, Pa., are being taken by the new city planning com- mission, headed by Colonel Harry C. Trexler. Frank Koester of New York city, an expert in city planning, has rendered a preliminary report after a survey of the town itself and the terri- tory embraced within the three mile limit over which it has jurisdiction un- der the new act of assembly. Mr, Koester finds that Allentown, like most American towns, was started as a village and allowed to grow with- out any scientific plan for its develop- ment. He advises the municipality to break away from rectangular blocks and to lay out streets according to to- pography and the trend of hills and streams. He strongly advocates that the city retain 10 per cent of all an- nexed land for parks, public squares, breathing places dand playgrounds. He thinks factories should be restricted to a manufacturing area. . Trolley lines, he says, ought to be built far out into the suburbs to permit the erection of houses away from the congested district. He advises a law to remove all sidewalk constructions at Quee, so as to reileve the crowded con- The [ The wice [F YOU WANT ‘A GOOD FARM .. will roa H ns 3-4 o ‘o Why Not Buy It Direct From the Owner 2 mean a big east of the sacrifice on There is some satisfaction. in knowing that only land from my part and one man can get a “rakeoff” if you deal with the Blackduck man who owns the land he wants to sell.

Note that it is healthy, vigorous and of the proper proportions from base to top. Don’t shed machinery haphazard. Put it away in the order you will need it next spring, oil and repair it, and next season’s rush work will not catch you napping, as it does most farmers at this time. Hog wallows are still in vogue and always will be Hut they demand some means of dra’ .ge, else they become stagnant, germ infested places, unfit for any living thing to come in contact with. Put the potatoes designed for seed purposes in barréls or bins where they can be kept from the light. Doing things at the right time and in the right way is the secret of suc- cess.
