HOME TOWN HELPS

GARDEN FOR EVERY HOME Two Hundred Workmen's -‘Cottages 1 Erected In a London Buburb Are So Planned. Two hundred and four cottage residences In agreeable contrast with the ordinary working class home have been erected at West Ham, a suburb of London, says the Telegraph of that city. The houses, which are built In blocks of two or more, have bright and artistic, frontages -of various designs, with tiled roofs. Each cottage has a garden at the rear, and there Is a small front garden, except where tfte house faces one of the grass covered open spaces for which provision- has been made. The forecourts are paved back and front. All the roads on the estate are 40 feet In width, and distance between each group of houses Is such as to Insure ample light and air. Fifty of the houses are three-roomed with scullery; 124 four-roomed and 30 five-roomed. Rents, inclusive of rates and taxes, are 6 shillings 6 pence, 8 shillings 6 pence and 12 shillings a week for the respective types. Each house is provided with a bath, copper, cooking range, gas lighting and Indoor lavatory. Wardrobe cupboards are supplied to each bedroom, and there are meat safes, with outside ventilation, on the ground floor. No effort has been spared to render the interior of the buildings commodious and as cheerful as their external surroundings.

VALUE OF HOME GARDENS

Distinctly Educational, Apart From the Pleasure Derived From the Work of Cultivation. There are various angles from which to praise the home garden work in which 15,000 Washington-children engaged this spring. It helps make for a city beautiful; the children’s waste time is gmployed; thrift Is developed. But one of the chief benefits ia educational. This gardening teaches things that cannot be learned Inside a classroom. The youth gets the joy of_ “seeing things grow.’’ He acquires a capital counter-irritant for the supposedly artificial atmosphere of the bouse. He gets in touch with the laws of nature, the pulse of living things, the great creative forces. He works in good, wholesome flirt. He learns something of where his food comes from. He loses the illusion of the tin can, hermetically sealed, germ proof, wax paper school of household economy. We mtfst live in cities, and living in them does not bring half the evils that the “back to the farm” advocates would have us believe. But we make our cities difficult to live in by not doing the things children' are doing—keeping our feet on the ground, and keeping in touch with Mother Earth.

Be Sure to Plant Some Vines.

Morning glories, cypress vines, sweetpeas, gourds, nasturtiums, Japanese hops, wild cucumber, hyacinth bean are among our most desirable annual climbers. Seeds of them do not cost much, and a package of one or the other will yield shade, beauty and grace. ' The sides of a steep terrace or bank may be transformed into a thing of beauty by planting trailers along its top. Rosa Wiehuraiana, the memorial rose, and Its hybrids, are desirable for this purpose. It produces a pro-, fusion of long wreaths of small, thick-ly-set leaves, that lodk as though they were varnished. In June it literally covers itself with large, white single roses. -- The Virginia creeper, honeysuCxle, nasturtiums and moon vines are trailers rather than climbers. Of garden plants the sweet potato and the dewberry are genteel enough to be grown as trailers. They give edibles Instead of flowers.

Increase in Playgrounds.

Neighborhood playgrounds under the direction of play leader® are being maintained in 432 cities in the United -States, according to the annual report of the Playground and Recreation Association of America. The number of new playgrounds opened during the year was 1,000, bringing the total to 3,294. More than one hundred cities employed 1,053 play leaders throughout the year. and schools are administered by the municipality itself. Seventy cities maintained classes for training recreation workers. Last year the expenditures were $4,066,357. Bond issues in 17 cities amounted to $1,663,760. In 49 cities neighborhood playgrounds have been donated by private individuals.

A Cleaning Precaution

If you do not want to make rings on material cleaned with gasoline, naphtha or other cleansing fjuids, put blotting papeKjjnderneath or hold the ...fabric rather tightly over a thick Turkish towel " or folded pads ol cheesecloth or other soft material, r i If this Is neglected the dirty fluid that soak? - into the material IfaSw to ba absorbed and spreads badly.

Fire Threatened Destruction Of Cement Tile Factory.

The fire*company was called out at 3:30 this Tuesday afternoon td the cement tile factory, just north of the railroad. The plant is owned by a company and is under the management of Roe Yeoman. Only for the prompt action of the fire company was the building saved. Upoii their arrival at the factory the blaze had already made. CQnsiderable headway and the roof was on fire and the (interior of the buildirffT was also in flames. The fire originated from one of the boilers which was defective andalloiyed the blaze to escape. The damage cannot be estimated as yet as the firemen were still on the scene when we wqnt to press. The Tact that the fire was ill the open where it could easily be subdued is probably all that saved the factory from almost total destruction.

MT. AYR NEWS.

Saturday F/ A. ,Standish purchased a Ford Touring car iftthe Main Garage at Rensselaer t3r-continue' the business he has built up as driver of the Mt. Ayr, Morocco and Rensselaer bus line while it belonged to A. P. Huntington and Thomas Inkley, respectively. Mr. Inkley recently disposed of his Overland and it is understood wished to use the Ford, which Mr. Standish was using, as a private car'. H§nce, Mr. Standish immediately made arrangements for a car to continue the run. We understand the run has never paid the owners a very vreat dividend, but ’if carefully operated will no doubt* provide a good living for Mr. Standish. Fred,instructs us to carry the time card as heretofore, merely changing name of owner* - . It seems now that the owner of the bus run, Tom Inkley, took exception to the way his driver, Fred Standish, terminated the bus business Saturday. As a consequence it seems inevitable that we are to have two busses running in the very near future. Perhaps by the time our paper is in the hands of its readers, prices on "“jitney*’ fares ~ wHI be- on -The decline. We foresee sortie hardships ahead for the busses, but it will be some consolation to the ,public to know there is at least one thing on the decline, no matter at whose expense it comes. Our esteemed citizen, J. M. Hufty, has been confined to his home and most of the time to his bed, for some ten days with rheumatic conditions resulting from a kidney trouble of long standing. He is quite a little improved at the present and it is hoped will be able to be about very soon. However, to one at so advanced an age as Mr. Hufty, there is always more or less uncertainty until they are fully recovered. Mr. Hufty conducts the mill and feed business and his genial countenance has been missed since his confinement at home.

From a number, of our .exchanges we learn that at various places the ice men took advantage of the first freeze and harvested a good crop of ice. Thus'far no ice has been put up in Mt. Ayr and while there is yet considerable winter ahead, we have known seasons before in which a second opportunity as good as the one just past, never comes. It would be a very regrettable condition not to have a good ice supply for our town and we hope that advantage will be taken of the very first opportunity that offers. Wednesday occurred the wedding of a very nice young couple in the persons of Mr. Henry Yoder and Miss Cora Miller. The marriage vows were solemnized at the M. E. parsonage by Rev. Cragun, the young couple being accompanied by Miss Sylvia Miller and Mr. Sylvanus Miller, sister and cousin respectively of the bride. , » ‘ This is one of our finest young couples and we bespeak for them a happy and prosperous life together They have not yet settled on their immediate plans but it is understood they will make their home on the farm some where around her . The Tribune joins their host of friends in wishing the young couple life’s joys and blessings. It is with regret we report that Uncle Ben Geesa, who has not 'been in very good health this winter, is not so well as usual. Chas. Thomas. Campbell, who has been working on a farm near Rossville, 111., is visiting his father, A 1 Campbell. Mr. and Mrs. J. M. Hufty have received word that fheir old. friend, A. Webb, of Pueblo, Colo., who formerly lived a short while at Rensselaer and an uncle to W. B. Austin, died at his home in the western city last week. Word has been received here from Pueblo, Colo., th»t Harry Hufty’s family has had a tussle with the measles. Edson, the baby, developed pneumonia and was quite serious for a while. He is improving and no serious thoughts are entertained for the little fellow’s welfare now. Mrs. W. J. Little and baby returned home Thursday, after a couple of weeks at the home of her parents near Brook, where she conducted the household duties in the absence of her father and mother, who were on a Christmas holiday visit among relatives. Miss Jessie Merry started on her return trip tp her school work in Cassville, Wis., Thursday. Miss Merry went to Kentland first, from there to Chicago, where she_ spent a couple of days, thence to Cassville, where she has again taken up school duties with renewed vigor, > Ransom White went to Schneider Monday to begin work on a dredge boat. “Pete” is an experienced dredge man and Mr. Williams, for whom he, went to work, and who is dredging his own land, draws a mighty good all around man when he gets Mr. White. Mr. Witcher will run the blacksmith shop alone for a while, at least. Victor Alexander stared his house* hold goods and left Saturday for Indianapolis, where he expects to enter the employ of the Link Belt Co. Mr. Alexander worked for this company before and says his job is awaiting him when he arrives at the capital. Mrs. Alexander preceded Victor a couple of weeks and in tame for a holiday visit. Tfie Reporter was pleased to claim for Mr. Clinton, the soldier boy just returned from the border, the distmetion of representing the whole county in the border service. In this we think the Reporter at error, as Arehia Lee, the editor’s son, went from Mt. Ayr, was in the same company, and must have stood shoulder to shoulder with Brook’s illustrious Clinton in the great conflict. ---■ Thomas Inkley has sold bis Overland auto, taken in on the bus line deal with A.

The second is a consolidated school and had ten exhibits. At the third school 56 samples were sjwwn. The winners will enter the eonuty corn show at Danville. * V. A. Ulace, Wabash Co. The encouraging thing about taking the second year’s farm management survey records is the way the fanners have kept account of their year's business.. The better class of farmers have either an entire record or one that is so complete that it is practically correct. There have been a few farmers who have dropped out. R. M, Roland, Orange Co. A bulletin is being prepared for the benefit of tomato growers in the county.
