If it is so poorly dug that you find it necessary to use a trowel, dig it over again before planting. Plants will never thrive in hard ground. If your beds have been dug for some time and have become set- tled, dig_again and loo: the sofl thoroughly just before planting. You will plant more easily and your plants will grow better for this extra amount of time devoted to their care When planting, water each plant before setting it in the ground. This is a better method than watering the )il after the plants are in place.

They will soon become aeclimated and start to grow. o1d-¥ Patunias produce a very pretty and restful effect, as the flowers of the varieties of petunias are all harmoni- ous In coloring. Sweet alyssum makes an excellent border for a bed of petunias. An arrangement of the beautiful varieties of the old- fashioned marigold would be artistic. These velvet and gold flowers are es- pecially desirable because of their hardiness and continuous blooming qualities, one set of flowers succeed- | Z another until November. The center of the bed could be planted| with one of the larger varieties, fol- lowed by a row of one or more with compact, dwarfish habits. The outer | row or border should be of a very| small, single variety. Yellow dotted with crimson would be very effectivé Dianthus, or china pinks, are also old-fashioned favorites, brilliant and colorful. A triangular or oblohg bed of both double and single china pinks would be very beautiful. Because of their great range of color, varying from pure white to darkest crimson, mingling in exquisite contrast, a more harmonious effect is secured if they are planted alone, as they are apt to clash with other flowers and thus spoil the entire effect Swveet Peas and Cosmon. Of all the flowers that brighten our gardens during the Summer months the sweet pea is probably first fa- vorite. For cutting purposes there is none better because the more freely it s cut, the longer it goes on flowe ing and the bigger are the blossor while as a decorative feature in the garden it is scarcely to be surpassed A hedge of sweet peas is a delightful possession both as regards fragrance and beauty. The secret of successful sweet pea culturs is in the choice of soil. They must have a rich soil, the richer the better. This mean mere surface richness. neans that the soil must be rich the depth of two feet or more.

Do not cultivate them often or deeply, or you will be sure to get a large supply of foliage, but few flowers, and do not give them 100 much water. Pull the weeds, but be careful to stir the soil very little, and water only every other day.

Do you know the loveli morning glories when cultivated In masses, the vines with their numerous tendrils thickly draping a fence or wall or trellis, and every morning opening by hundreds or thousands in every shade from white to purple? After the seeds have heen sown comes a period of about two weeks when no sign of life is visible. A framework of light bamboo or wire must be pro- vided, which must be extended as the plants grow. Every morning punctu- ally they will unfoid, every afternoon quietly droop, ready to be picked off s0 as to relieve the plant for the opening of its next day's buds of rose-red, pale yellow, deep crimson edged with white and -« deep azure blue, said to come from Japun.

For this purpose there are special mixed flower seeds for “wild gardens” that would be suitable for this purpose. Such bed would be a delight as a conven- ient hedgerow. To Make a Lawn. There are two ways to make a lawn. One way is to use well established sod as a starter, and the other way is to sow seed. An inexperienced person can make a better lawn by sowing seed than by sodding. Use a combination of eight parts by weight of white clover and two parts by weight of Kentucky blue gra Thi is recognized by landscape gardener as the best combination of seed for lawn making. Select a day that is cloudy and a day when there is very little wind. Go over the plot to be seeded three times, once walking back and forth from north to south until you have covered the entire plot. Then from east to west, sowing as you go. At last cover the area diagonally This method will result in an even distribution of seeds. = Ot course, you will not have im- mediate results with a seeded lawn, but 10 weeks is not long to walit, con- sidering the economy of the method. 7Eood Has{i Chop some cold boiled potatoes with third the amount of cold bacon or ham, fry in the fat produced from the bacon, if there is enough, or add a little butter if needed and a few spoonfuls of water.

BY PHILIP FRANCIS NOWLAN, DAY VARIATIONS—Daye, Dey, Deye, Day- man, Deman. RACIAL ORIGIN—English. SOURCE—AnN occupation. The family name of Day is really traceable to several different sources One of these already -has been d cussed, the orjgin as a variation of the given name of David. Anofher is Irish, when Day Is a shortenefl form of the name of O'Day. The third is English, and an occu- pation. Older forms of the surname, in that period when surnames were purely descriptive and had not yet become hereditary family distinctions, ar met with constantly as “Le Dave “Le Dagh,” “La Deye" and “Le Day- man.” Translated into modern speech, all of these names meant simply vthe dairyman” or “the dairymaid,” ac cording to the sex of the person whom the name was applied. These family names, therefore, take their place in the large classification which has been developed from the occupations of the original bearers, and which become hereditary at a slightly later period than surnames which were derived from place names. If vou bear one of these names it might trace back In you particular case to the twelfth or maybe only to the fifteenth or “sixteenth. But hardly later than that, or the form of the name have been different (Copyright ] to cen- . - Woman bootblacks in Brussels shine the shoes of citizens and tour- Ists at rate of about 3 cents a shine.
