They should also be pruned. To get rid of Bermuda grass; turn up the roots to the summer sun, and in a few weeks turn the ground over again, shallow, and harrow. The vetter plan is to select a place for 4 permanent pasture and strive to keep the Bermuda grass growing. To prevent cut worms from work- ing put a piece of hard, stiff paper around the plant and sink it in the ground an inch, or mix one pound of Paris green with 25 pounds of dry bran, put three quarts of molasses in six gallons of water and stir in the Paris green and bran, let stand A few hours, then scatter small pieces of the mixture about roots of the plants. This will kill the worms and not injure the plants. To kill plant lice; boil one pound of tobacco stems or tobacco dust in one gallon of water about an hour. Strain and add cold water to make two gallons of the tobacco tea for each pound of such tobacco used. If leaf tobacco is used add water to make four gallons of spray for each pound of such tobacco used. Use this freely with a small hand spray- er that will throw a fine mist, wherever you find the lice at work, Twenty Lakes At Winter Haven To Be Connected Winter Haven, May 22—The Beas- ler Construction Company of Sa- vannah, Ga., has signed a contract for dredging the boat canal of twenty lakes about Winter Haven. The contract calls for the excava tion of 76,000 cubic yards of earth, which will construct a canal twent feet wide and four feet deep at low- et ebb, Another matter which stirs the pulse of our people is the Prospect of having the Dixie high- Way pass through Winter Haven. Prospects are excellent here for ctontinued building activities during the summer, The new school build- 2%, 2 modern brick structure, will be erected this summer. The need of this improvement is apparent from the fact that thenumber of pu- Pils enrolled has increased from 218 W0 years ago to 404 pupils at the Present time.

If you can find out that some one of the big leaders in society has enamel on her face—that is real news.” Barbara started out up the busy thoroughfare, and, as she slipped along through the crowd, quietly dressed in her inconspicuous street frock, no one stopped to notice her. Perhaps that was why when she passed Ned Stanton he did not see her; she was swallowed up in that crowd of fashionably dressed women. Surely had Ned known that Barbara was near he would have forgotten the others for, to Ned, Barbara was the ideal of feminine loveliness. Her demureness, her pallor even, glgni- fled all that was sweet agd lovely in womén.

A haughty voice had answered: ‘“Put a little more col- or in the enamel, please. I am wear- ing green this evening and that re- quires a great deal of color. And the lights are so trying at Mrs. Vander- hayden's.” ..—omepnaRESIRANY Barbara recognized the name of one of the most exclusive hostesses of the season—a hostess of the younger smart set, just the set that the city editor would be interested in. “Do they just do enameling in those gar committee; G. R. Ramsey, city engineer, “cold” slaw and pickle committee; W. M. Glenn, ice, lemon- | ade and water committee; N. P. Yowell, cup, spoon and plate com- mittee; R. D. Brossier, music com- mittee; W\, R. O’Neal, Gray Rush booths?” Barbara asked. “Just faclal treatment,” said the manicurist. In another minute Bar- bara had placed herself in the hands of a specialist in faclal beauty. But the girl did not notice her face in the mirror before her. She paid strict at- tention to every move of the attend- and Lpster Beeman, committee to arrange Fair Grounds for barbecue, ! prepare auditorium, tables, chais, ! ete. C. P. Dow as president of the Board of Trade will secure the offi- cial permit to secure the Fair Grounds. J. D. Barnes will be chairman and gencral-issimo of the entire entertainment committee. W. S. Branch was appointed a com- mittee of one to arrange for pen- nants and decorations. W. M. Glenn was appointed as a committee of one ant. She was interested in the treat- ment. It would be good data for the story. And she listened to the con- versation across the partition. She heard the name of the woman. She was prominent, a recent divorcee, just the sort of name that would make the city editor rejoice. Meantime the beauty specialist worked with enthusiasm. “Just a touch of purple under the eyes?” she asked, and Barbara being all ears to the conversation in the next room, nodded her approval. “I am using this new peachblow for with power to act in securing an appropriate badge.

Scer vs. Weather Prophet In pleading for a seeress who was haled to court the other day a law- yer put in a unique plea. He claims that the weather man was just as much of a fortune teller as his client. “She is a real scientist,” said the lawyer. “She has devoted years to the study of astrology. If she is culpable for making predictions based on her astrological deductions, | for each other. then the weather man should have gone to the State prison long ago for trying to do the same thing. And, at that, her predictions are right oftener than his.” But what's the use of kicking the weather man the weather and he dislikes you when you call attention to his bad Buesses. Perfectly Paired. “They seem to be so well suited “Yes, neither of them has ocrains enough to realize what a frost the other ome is” On the Mighty Nile. Twelve thousand miles of navigable waterways are offered by the Nile and its tributaries the cheeks,” sald the attendant. “It costs a trifie more, but you don't ob- Ject?” Once out on the street Barbara was hurrying with all impatience back to the office where she might write the story that she had gathered and turn it into the city editor. Suddenly she was stopped by a hand laid on her arm. It was Ned Stanton. “Barbara—Miss Mills!” he said, and there was reproof in every accent. “For heaven's sake—" and then paused. Barbara spoke a word of greeting, and then for the first time she was ‘consclous of the fact that she was being noticed; that now, in the semi- darkness on the busy thoroughfare, she had been attracting the glances of the men and women as they hur- ried past. “I am going down to the office,” Ned told her, “and I may as well go with you.” As they walked and talked Barbara for the time being forgot the excite- ment of her successful assignment. | All she felt was the joy of belng with Ned. When the office building ap- peared in sight Ned grasped her arm in the semi-darkness. “For heaven's sake, Barbara, what has happened? When did you change like this, and why did you do {t? You were everything to me—just as you were. I loved you because you were different from the rest—from the average city woman with her powder and paint and her lip sticks. And now —Barbara, no one could be decelved. There is enough powder to free Ire- land and enough paint to paint a bat- tleship. 1 loved you as you were. Barbara, tell me what has happened.” Barbara gave a little cry of sur- prise and put her two gloved hands up to hide her face. “I didn't realize it was my face,” she sald pitifully. “I was 80 Interested. All I thought was about the story—until I met you, and then I forgot everything.” Identified.
