MARTYRED CITY

of lira
French Officer Says' that Not Even
Verdun was Subject to Such an
Inferno of Fire
'. (Associated Press)
. Monastir, Serbia (Correspondence).
This martyred city of the Serbs, un under
der under continuous bombardment from
the Bulgar, batteries only two miles
away, was visited for the first time to today
day today by a civilian, on orders issued by
General Grosetti, commander-in-chief
on the Monastir front of the
Army of the Orient. It is seldom that
a press dispatch goes from Serbia
these days, for practically the whole
country has been swept clean by the
Austro-Bulgar hordes, and only this
little corner in the southwest, retaken
last Novemberis holding out against
the terrific bombardment.
"It is worse than Verdun," said
; Lieutenant-Colonel, Dosse of the staff,
who was on General Petain's staff at
Verdun during theworst days.
Monastir:lies in a cup-like hollow,
and by reason of its being on Serbian
soil it is the center of the bitterest
strife between Serb and Jiulgarr It
was one of the last points abandoned
hv the Serhs in their exodus hefore
the rush of the Austrians in 1915.
The Bulgars held it last y2r through
August. Then the new Serbian army,
reorganized, gave their first attention
to getting back this city.' But their
newness was against them and they
were badly repulsed. But in October
the Serbs got their revenge, making
a mass attack with the French and
Russian divisions.
This fight of Serb against Bulgai
was one of the bloodiest of. the war.
The Serb took the strategic key of
Mount Kaisnatchkalon, which today
marks the burying place of 10,000
Bulgars. Monastir was again taken,
but the Austro-Bulgars still held on
only three miles north and west of
the city. General Grosetti .cleared,
them from the northern hills in a
brilliant attack last' March, when the
famous hill 1248 was talcen.' But they
clung to the western hills, and there
they are today raining down their
shells on the old Serbian town. It used
to have 50,000 population; now it has
5,000 living in cellars.

CAN'T HOLD CATTS
His Friends Unable to Prevent the
Governor from Making an Un Un-.
. Un-. seemly Exhibition of Himself
The cooler-headed friends of the
governor, who have been trying, with
fair success to hold him down the
past few weeks have temporarily lost
their grip if the following dispatch to
the Pensacola Journal is true:
Montgomery, Ala., Nov. 8. Flor Florida
ida Florida may be put under martial law
and the heads of certain judges in the
state may be amputated, accordingl
to Viovernor iatts in an mierview
II 1
given out in Montgomery Tuesday
while en route to Louisville, where
he is to address the Purity League
next Sunday.
"I expect Secretary of the Navy
Daniels to declare martial law in
Florida," declared Governor Catts,
"principally on account of the rotten
conditions in Escambia county. The
fight is still on between the prohibi prohibitionists
tionists prohibitionists and the antis, who have
fought me ever since I announced for
governor, but we will win out yet. I
will keep fighting until liquor is
swept out of Florida. J
"I have written a letter to Secre
tary Daniels and fully described the
conditions, to him, especially the con
ditions to be found m those cities
where naval bases have been estab
lished, and I look for the secretary
of the navy to take some drastic
action in' the matter.
"I, told Secretary Daniels in my
letter that, through a recent decision
of Judge Moreno Jones, of Escambia
county, the sale of liquor is recogniz
ed in that county and. the whole state
will be opened to ..the sale of the bev
erage if such decisions are -allowed
to stand. '
"Service clubs," said the governor,
"or blind tigers, if you choose to call
them, that were tabooed in Florida by
the laws which ran liquor out. Jus Justices
tices Justices ruled that the sale of liquor by
individuals was against the law un until
til until the judge of Escambia county
ruled otherwise, and thereby opened
the way for any restaurant Of soda
fountain under his jurisdiction to
serve whisky, beer and wine.
Would .Remove Jones
"The case has been appealed to the
supreme court. If the court reserves
the decision of Judge Jones, I will
remove him from office. If it affirms,
I will remove him anyway. .. f ''
"I would no more hesitate to re remove
move remove him," declared the fighting gov governor,
ernor, governor, "thanL. would hesitate to re remove

Moral conditions surrounding, the
camp at Jacksonville, according to
Governor Catts, are excellent at this
time, though a few weeks ago Florida
stood a good chance to lose the camp.
"How about the report that 20,000
troops would be removed from Jack Jacksonville
sonville Jacksonville to Montgomery because of
unfavorable moral conditions?" hi.
was asked.

he said, "but it stood a good chance of

this man is the governor of the state,

"If the court reverses the decision

A whole host had gathered from far

And they spent the happiest night of

And they all disappeared when arose

OLD KINSMEN
GETTING TOGETHER

(Toronto Mail and Empire)
Not even Germany has tried to in inculcate
culcate inculcate patriotism more earnestly
than our big kinsman and partner to j
the south. It is said that in the au authorized
thorized authorized edition of the primary Ger German
man German school book there is this ques question,
tion, question, "What is Germany?" The an answer,
swer, answer, "Our Fatherland, surrounded
by enemies." It was not true when
writen, however it may now approxi approximate
mate approximate to the truth. In the United
States the answer to a school book
question as to what is Englang, but
answer is in effect, "A tyrant that
we licked." American school chil children
dren children for several generations have
been taught that they and their coun country
try country came into being by defeating,
more" than once, the stupid bully,
England, that had desired to treat
Americans as Senegambians were
treated by cruel taskmasters. Hence
has arisen a prejudice against Great
Britain, which is not to be explained
away byj Fenianism. Millions of Am Americans
ericans Americans destitute of Irish blood have
had the notion that England is a rob robber
ber robber nation, and that the foreign pol
icy of the United States might pro- i
perly be concentrated into watchful watchfulness
ness watchfulness of perfidious Albion.
Popular Notion of England
Americans who are readers and
whose knowledge of history is not
confined to what they were taught
when in knickerbockers, have rid
themselves of the prejudice against
England, but as most Americans, hk
most Canadians, do not learn any
thing about ancient history after they
escape from the Rublic schools, it is
not unnatural that the majority of
American citizens have had the idea
that as-soldiers the .English were
either jokes or tragedies, that the
generals were an unpleasing combi combination
nation combination of boor and fool, and that the
aim of Great Britain was to enslave
whatever portions of -the earth re remained
mained remained open for conquest. Before the
war more than one American writer
combated this idea, and it had made
considerable headway. Since the
United States and Great Britain have
become allies the work of enlighten enlightening
ing enlightening the average American has pro proceeded
ceeded proceeded apace, and now it is. by no
means uncommon to find an Ameri American
can American newspaper telling its readers
that what they were taught about
England at school is, to use the hap happy
py happy phrase of Emerson, "the old
bunk."
Lop-Sided History
In last Sunday's Portland Ore Ore-gonian,
gonian, Ore-gonian, one of the best papers on the
Pacific slope, the leading article is
devoted to "Our Anti-British School
Books." The writer points out that
the mischief of the average American
school book, when it attempts to
teach history, is not that it invents
history, but that it presents facts in
suchi a manner that the "victory of an
enemy when be takes 10,000 prison prisoners
ers prisoners is represented as unimportant
compared with a victory for the home
troops when they take 18 prisoners.
For instance, in the history of the
war of 1812, the Battle of Lake Erie
is lauded as a Homeric and; decisive
conflict, while the "affair at Bladens Bladens-burg"
burg" Bladens-burg" is treated as though it -was of
no importance whatsoever. The glor glorious
ious glorious Canadian records of Chateau Chateau-guay,
guay, Chateau-guay, Lundy's Lane and Queenston
Heights might as well appertain to
the history of Peru, so far as the av
erage American schoolboy is concern
ed.
English Friends of Independence
Before the war Mr. Charles Alts Alts-chul,
chul, Alts-chul, ,who certainly bears no English
name, wrote a book in which he ex examined
amined examined the various American his histories
tories histories used in the schools. He care carefully
fully carefully reviewed" the events leading up
to the American revolution, and
showed that the injustices which the
American colonists were cabled upon
to endure were not imposed upon
them by English people, but by a
king of England who was as German
as the present crown prince. He
showed that the greatest Englishmen
of the day, Pitt and Fox and Burke,
were brothers in spirit to Franklin,
Adams and Washington, and that
they fought for the contentions of the
colonists in parliament as bravely as
ever. Washington fought for them in
the field. The great mass of the Eng English
lish English people, one hundred years ago.
had no feeling against the Americans.
They suffered as much, and it may be
that they bore a greater burden of
injustice with less complaining than
the colonies. They bi on the bullet
when the colonist reached for his
gun.
An Old Breach Closed
The fact is that in its history the
United States had had just two im important
portant important wars apart from internecine
war, and both happened to be against
England. The scrap with Mexico and
the brush with Spain are not worth
calling wars. Popular American his history
tory history has overlooked the fact that haa
it not been for Great Britain the
United States would have had its first
great war with Germanyand Austria
at the time it was battering Spain.
Any hostility that there has been be between
tween between the two countries since Cleve Cleveland
land Cleveland delivered his Venezuelan utli utli-matum
matum utli-matum has been artificial, and has
been provoked by silly text books, by
Fenians or by pro-Germans. Now that
ithe two natiQns stand shoulder to
shoulder in the greatest war that the
world has ever seen, the old mistaken
d'strust with disappear forever, and
the chief glory will go to the Cana Canadian
dian Canadian soldiers who first died in this
war and were hailed as. brothers and
Americans by the press and-public
of the United States.

SPOOKS

(Ocaleean Ensign)
Wednesday night, the spooks play played
ed played havoc in our city. On returning
from their frolic, two of the boys wit witnessed
nessed witnessed a sight that they had never
seen before.
Spooks! Spooks of all kinds danc dancing
ing dancing through the front door, down the
front steps, and out into the dark
shadows.
Both boys wondered, but said noth nothing.
ing. nothing. On entering their bedroom they
wondered no longer, only stared in
dumb amazement. Was it that they
were in their own room or in some
one else's? Were they seeing things
crooked? One should say "Yes."
Crooked was no word for it. Their
clothes were mixed and jumbled to together,
gether, together, the pictures and pennants
taken from the walls, and the mat mattress
tress mattress off the bed. Worst of all, their
"girls' pictures had been greatly
disturbed and now lay disorderly on
the floor.
When the dumb amazement passed
from their countenances, the "spooks"
heard them begin to speak. Not in
the tender, good-natured, voices usu
ally used by Julian and Harold, but
in stern, fierce, gruff growls it poured
out, rather making the "spooks" hap happier
pier happier for what they had done.
Harold and Julian were not the
only ones visited by the "spooks."
Why did Robert come to school with without
out without his hat and all day long cry for
his lost picture of Sarah ? Why did
Mr. Henderson's nose shine so? (The
"spooks" upset his face powder).
Why was Reuben so sleepy-eyed? (He
had to shake the hot sands of Florida
off the sheet). Why was Leonard so
nearly late? (He had to fairly dig a
tunnel to get out of his room). All
of this was caused by the "spooks."
Mr. Horrell also felt a visit of these
sams "spooks," but they did not play
as much havoc with his store as they
did with the rooms of the O. H. S.
boys. Boys, look out for the reap reappearance
pearance reappearance of the "spooks" on April 1,
1918!
MILITARY DRILL IN O. H. S.
(Ocaleean Ensign)
The military drill in school this
year is compulsory. Every boy from
the fourth grade up has to drill every
morning from 10:05 to 10:35.
There are one hundred and fifty
boys in, the school that are compelled
to drill. The boys are divided into
two companies, A and B.
The only thing some of the boys
dislike about the drill is that they
are detained after school to drill in
the "awkward squad."
Following are the officers of the
High School Cadet Company:
. Senior Instructor: Y. A. Henderson.
- Major: Reuben Blalock.
Sergeant-Ma jor: Wellie Meffert.

WouId Tunnel English Channel. ';
A machine for tunneling the English
Channel in 35 days has been brought -to
the attention of the British govern-,
ment by Mr. John K. Hencken, a civil,
engineer of New York, who states that
he has official approval of his scheme.
The scheme contemplates boring four
tunnels by means of eight machines
thatjwill cut through earth and rock -at
the rate of 100 feet per hour, and
provides not only for a trackway in
each 'tunnel, but a driveway, along
with motor-lorries could be -driven
from England to the supply bases In
France. Mr. Hencken asserts that he
can have the tunnels complete and
ready for operation within a few
months time, and declares that,phould
the scheme be caried through. It
would release most of the shipping
now used between England andY
France."

the Ocala High School lost the-game
with Gainesville Fridaywas because
one of the best players was shut out,
- and she was shut out because she
didn't measure up to the mark in some
of her studies. This is in consequence,
we are told, of a ruling by the district
board that no scholar shall play on

either theboy3 or girls team unless
he or she attains a certain grade in
studies. This is a vepr unwise rul ruling,

the abolition of its service would at

The Star would advise the commit committee

take the matter before the railroad

waha Ockla-waha Valley Fighting Against
Its Being Torn Up
Friday night's meeting of the Mar Marion
ion Marion County Board of Trade was given
over entirely to the discussion of ways
and means to retain the Ocklawaha
Valley railroad service through the
northeastern part of the county.
A large delegation of citizens from
Fort McCoy, Bay Lake, Orange
Springs and Burbank were on hand to
enter their protest against the sus suspension

after November 30th, a notice to this
effect having been served on the pat patrons
rons patrons along the line several days ago.
A delegation from the Palatka Bus Business
iness Business Men's Association was- also
present to urge the necessity of con continuing
tinuing continuing the service.
A petition signed by 563 patrons of
the road between Ocala and Palatka
was handed in. The petition cited
that thousands of people living along
this road were entirely dependent
upon it for transportation, and that
its removal meant practical confisca confiscation
tion confiscation of their properties, as their dis distance
tance distance from any other railroad made
it impossible for them to follow their
various lines of trade, farming, lum lumbering,
bering, lumbering, logging, and last, but not
least, trucking on a scale that would
make them a factor in providing food
for our armies now in operation in
Europe.
Speeches were made by the prominent-
business men of the several
communities most vitally effected by
the proposed closing down of the
railroad's, service, and in each in instance
stance instance it was claimed that such a
movement would bring calamity to
not only the business enterprises lo located

entirely upon it for transportation,
but actual bankruptcy upon the hun hundreds
dreds hundreds of farmers who have -'invested
their all in lands adjacent to the
road. '
While actual service is not to be
discontinued until November 30th, it
was reported to the meeting ithat in instructions

apropos to the "stupendous outrage"
that is, we are told, about to be perpetrated-
by the Ocklawaha Valley
railroad.
' This property was taken over by
the bondholders, April 16th, 1915,
since which time its operation has
earned a deficit of more than $35,000,
not to mention interest on the invest investment.
ment. investment. Since that date, the price of
material and supplies that go into the
maintenance and operation of a rail railroad
road railroad has advanced from 30 to
450, and the greater advances have
occurred since January 1st, 1917. v
To be forced to continue operating
under these conditions means nothing
short of the confiscation of our prop property.;
erty.; property.; ;
Our socialist friend was quite right
in saying that "it is true, no doubt,
that the railroad is not making much
money," which is about the only
truthful statement in his tirade ap appearing
pearing appearing in the Banner of November
9th .."'-
."Stupendous outrage." "We have
been robbed and betrayed by these
New York parasites." "Dastardly out outrage."
rage." outrage." "Merciless injury." "Heart "Heartless

have all the earmarks of having been
copies verbatim from the Call, one
of the rankest sheets that ever dis disgraced
graced disgraced the United States mail. So
rank, indeed, and unpatriotic, that
our patient and long-suffering presi president
dent president had to cause it to be suppressed.
I notice is was "whereased" at the
"Vigorous Protest" at the courthouse
last night that "It is a fact that the
said Ocklawaha Valley railroad has
refused several hundred carloads of
business to assist in the profits of
said road." I submit that for pure,
unmitigated falsehood, this rather
outranks the Call. It has refused
some business offered under terms
that no railroad could accept.' :
i It was stated further that the em employees
ployees employees had already received instructions-to
begin tearing up the side sidetracks
tracks sidetracks on the 15th of the month. This
statement cannot be dignified by the
term falsehood. It is simply a bare barefaced
faced barefaced lie. No instructions have been
issued to begin tearing up sidings or
anything else on the 15th, or at any
other time. As a matter of fact," I
do not know that the rails' will ever
be taken up. If they are, it is a ten
shot to one that Uncle Sam will get
them at his own-price for shipment to
France.
In conclusion, may I not express
our appreciation of the Star's impar impartial
tial impartial stand in this matter, realizing as
it undoubtedly does that there are
two. sides, to the question, and that
lynching even a corporation without
a hearing, is not fair play.
Yours very truly,

Your Higher Cost of
Grooving Fruit and Trucli

This year the growers of Florida will
find that their producing costs have
been increased. Labor is scarce and
must be paid high wages, fertilizer,
costs more, crates are more expensive.
These higher producing costs are not
confined to Florida but prevail all over
the United States, as well as abroad.
There was no escaping them when the
whole world became involved in the
war for the "safety of democracy."
There is compensation in the fact
that if properly marketed the products
of farm, garden arioT grove may be sold
for prices enough higher than previ previously;
ously; previously; have been, secured to c0ver' at
least the increased producing costs.
; But this can1 not be hoped for from
shipments sent to'f glutted markets, or
offered to the corisuming. public with-
out the identifying iharfe of a selling
agency withiwhieh it is; acquainted and
in which it has ccdence. A public
paying higher prices for its. gooas de demands
mands demands assurance ?6f their' quality. v
t The Florida ; Citrus Exchange can
market your products vso as to obtain
maximum prices for these. It has the
confidence of the .fruit and produce
trade and its name and trade-marks
are looked to as their protection by
hundreds of thousands of housewives.
It has its own dependable men in every
important market center and, keeping:
in touch with them by wire, is able to
avoid gluts. It is conducted with dueV
regard alike for economy and,, effici efficiency,

So many ways to think of her,
"Whose thought has led us through
the years y
And kept our every wori from guile
With silent prayer and meed of

So many aching hearts that reach
And feel across a starless night
For still a voice that used to soothe,

For still a vanished hand of white.

So many jewels in the shrine,
Where memory plants its heart ot

And quaffs its sweetly flavored wine,

queen, also kneeling, tasted each dish
before presenting it to her lord. King
Chulalongkora, inaugurating a new
era, had his wives seated about his
royal table as guests and equals. The
waiters and busboys were princes of
the blood royal.
The service was magnificent the
plates of solid gold were worth a king's
ransom. The knives, forks and spoons
were fashioned after queer old Siam Siamese

the ancient capital of Ayuthia. The
glass was engraved with his majesty's
monogram,, inlaid with gold. The me menu

paper with solid gold lettering. On the
table stood bouquets six feet in height,
made of hothouse flowers, enlarged by
hand to unusual size. For example,
the roses were gathered, the petals
pulled apart and sewn together again
with the finest of needles and silk
thread.

REALLY WENT UP SALT RIVER

Acticn of Defeated Office-Seeker in
Kentucky Gave Rise to Saying Now
Used All Over Country.
The people of the United States have
always been prone and quick to catch
a happy or unhappy remark or phrase
in politics and to make the most of it
to the advantage of one or the disad disadvantage
vantage disadvantage of another party, observes the
Christian Science Monitor.
Some leaders are happy even in their
most casual expressions. Lincoln was
one of these. Grant was another. It
used to be said that the difference be between
tween between Lincoln and his greatest general
was that, while one dropped pearls of
speech, the other dropped the pearls
of silence. Nevertheless, when Grant
said that he proposed to "fight it out
on this line if it takes all summer" and
when he said, "Let us have peace," he
furnished his friends with political
campaign material jof the first order.
They were sayings as simple as "With
charity toward all; with malice to toward
ward toward none," or 'You can fool some of
the people some of the time, but you
can't fool all the people all the time,"
and because they were simple they
were remembered.

OCALA LOST THE GAME

Our High School Girls Basket Ball
t Team Defeated in Gainesville
V .. (Gainesville Sun.)
' Yesterday marked the opening of
the basketball season when the girls
of the local high school played and
defeated the Ocala H. S. on the local
court by a score of 18 to 15.
Having never- in the past defeated
the "Wild Cats," the local team "kill "killed
ed "killed two birds with one stone" and cov covered
ered covered themselves with glory.
The outlook at the beginning of the
season was black for the local team,
the majority, of its best players hav
ing graduated last year. Many .were
the, dubious expressions until happy
appearance of Mrs; Ray Driver who
consented to coach the girls. The
way she whipped and molded them
into shape in the last two weeks of
practice is a caution. If two weeks of
practice can bring forth playing and
team work as displayed yesterday-
then, the future" is assured and the
championship of the State is Gaines
ville's.
The whistle blew at 2:30 and the
two teams took their respective posi positions.

pretty sight. Ocala m their suits of
black, andV"the Gainesville girls in
white middies and purple bloomers,

At the first of the game the "Wild "Wild-Cats"
Cats" "Wild-Cats" outplayed the "Champions" and
displayed better team work. This
showed good, efficient coaching; and
the cleanness of sportsmanship dis displayed
played displayed showed well the character of
the players'. A cleaner game could
not be played. The particular playing
and team work of the two forwards,
Callie Gissendaner and Agnes Bur Bur-ford,
ford, Bur-ford, semed to be too much for thfc
local forwards, four consecutive bask baskets
ets baskets being thrown in the first five min minutes
utes minutes of play. This seemed to discour discourage
age discourage the local girls but, with the
throwing of a basket a few' minutes
later, after many failures, by Pauline
Merrill the local girls seemed to shiver
as the cold water had been poured on
them and awoke with a new determin determination.
ation. determination. :
, The playing of Cecil Cobb at jump jumping,
ing, jumping, center and Edna Chestnut at
guard was as good as has ever been
on the local court.
Time was called several times for
Agnes Burford who finally had to be
taken out of the game and Lucille
Gissendaner put in her place.' Lucille
is small but the name "Wild Cat" is
quite appropriate to her playing.
The first half ended with the score
12 to 13 in favor of Ocala. :
VWhen the whistle blew for the sec second
ond second half it was seen that Captaii.
Chestnut and Manager Bullard had
made a few changes. Jessie Bishop
and Grace Bullard replaced Cecil Cobb
and Leo Johnson. It was in this half
that the locals covered themselves
with glory i and a carried oft the "ba "bacon."
con." "bacon." The team work displayed by the
team was beautiful to behold. Jessie
Bishop outplayed Catherine Leitnei
at jumping center "2 to 1." Playing
of Grace Bullard who was practically
a walking "Lazarus," having her left
hand in bad condition and a bruised
blood vessel in her foot, was a feature
of the game. Everyone acknowledged
that it was these substitutions which
turned defeat into victory. Louise
Brannon at guard brought forth many
complimentary remarks. v
The star playing of Lena Chancey
and Pauline Merrill for Gainesville
and that of Louise Spencer and the
two guards for Ocala deserve credit.
The second half ended the score 18
to 15 in favor of Gainesville.
One of the largest crowds ever seen
at a basket ball game was present,
which goes to show the prominence
the high school is gaining and' how
proud Gainesvile is of it.

REMODELED HOUSE LIKE NEW
Dwelling That Is Made Over May
Come Nearer Meeting Needs Than
One Constructed to Order.
The remodeled house Is often more
comfortable, charming and satisfying
than one built new. Buying a house
already built is much like purchasing
clothes ready-made; it is never quite
a perfect fit; there is never perfect
harmony with individual needs and re requirements,
quirements, requirements, says Noble Foster
Hoggson in the Phialdelphla Public
Ledger. Remodeling makes it virtu virtually

An old house, endeared through
years of occupancy and association,

there comes a growing realization of
the many ways In which it might be
altered and Improved. The growing

problem of remodeling, should he not

might, prove, when tested by occu occupancy,

The two principal reasons for re remodeling

esthetic; the need of more space, or

COST SHOULD BE IN HARMONY
Amount Put In House "Should Not Be
Out of Proportion to thi Value
of the Site.
One of the mosj grievous mistakes
the owner can make Is to build a house
which Is out of proportion to the value
of the land on which it is erected. The
higher the cost of the land the better,
as a rule, the character of future build building
ing building operations In the neighborhood.
For Instance, it is generally unwise
to build a house costing $5,000 or
$6,000 on a site costing less than $25
to $40 a front foot. Nor should the
reverse mistake be made of building a
cheap house on an expensive site site-though
though site-though that is governed by the re restrictions
strictions restrictions which most developers of
high-grade subdivisions Impose. Cost
of house and cost of site should be in
fairly strict proportion.

minimum for any modern residence

As a bit of advice here Is an excerpt

Native Trees Are Desirable. ..
Many people have the decidedly mis mistaken
taken mistaken idea that the only trees worth
buying and setting out are the more or
less expensive shrubs or evergreens
which are not native jto most sections
of the country. The idea of paying out
good money for a pine, or a birch or a
maple seems to go against the graim
Xs a matter of fact Ihere are many
places where such trees, are to be had
for the trouble of digging them up and
transplanting them, but even this r is
considered too high a price. And yet
f orjmany purposes pines, and maples
are as good trees as can be had, and
there is nothing listed in the catalogue
more beautiful and graceful tlian a
well cared-for group of white birches.
Fall Best Time to Paint House.
The fall of the year is by far the
best ; time to paint the exterior of a
house, for paint dries more slowly in
cool weather and consequently lasts
longer. The heat of the summer sun
on a bouse painted In the spring does
much more harm than any winter
weather and a fall painting Is well sea seasoned
soned seasoned before the next summer arrives.
Small flies and insects are also a pest
