kinds op srnooL OAtiDrcxf?.
Two fulily distinct types of school
gardens are found. In one the orna
mental features predominate. The chit
dren assist lu planting the school
grounds with wild (lowers nnd shrubs.
or cultivated flowers, ornamental plants
and trees, or various combinations of
native and Introduced plants. Ordinar
ily lu gardens of this type the aesthetic
features are emphasized, though tint
always to the exclusion of other vnluii
I ill? Instruction. The children may
learn, to a certain extent, flip princi
ples of plant growth, the reasons for
pruning and grafting trees, tho bent
methods of combating Insect posts and
fungus diseases of Mowers, shrubs and
trees, and many other practical details
In maintaining plcasaut home surround
Ings.
In the other type of school garden
tho vogetnble garden we llnd the eco
nomlc clement predominating. Chil
dren are frequently allowed to plant
flowers lu connection with vegetables,
but this feature of the work Is usually
Incidental to the 'nstruetlon In growing
useful plants, Csually tho garden Is
divided Into small plats, from four to
teu foot wide by six to twenty feet
long, and one or two pupils are Hindu
responsible for the care of each pint,
Hero they plnut lettuce, radishes beans,
potatoes and other farm and garden
vegetables, learn to distinguish them
from the weeds that threaten to choke
them out, become familiar with their
habits of growth and methods of re
production, discover numerous Insect
enemies nnd other pests that require
great Ingenuity to eradicate, nnd grnd
ually acquire a nomenclature that ndds
greatly to the stock of words lu their
growing vocabulary.
LANDSCAPE ZFFGrrS.
Such gardens do uot lend themselves
to the realization of landscape effects
but furnish many valuable lessons uot
to be acquired lu tbe ornamental gar
den, where, as a mlo, nil the pupils
work together. Among other things
they develop a seuso of ownership, and
awaken a greater personal Interest.
With this sense of ownership comes a
growing regard for tho property of
others. It lins been found lu tho edu
cation of Incorrigible boys that al
lotting to each boy a plat of ground
upou which he can raise what ho will
and enjoy the fruits of his labor has n
powerful luflucnce In overcoming tho
tendency to Indulgo In petty thieving.
Furthermore, the fow experiments In
school garden work thnt have been
carrlrd on long enough In this country
to glvo tangible results Indlcnto that
chll.lren who have engaged lu work of
tills, kind at school acquire a whole
sowe respect not only for the Individual
property of others, but for city prop
erty nnd other corporate property, for
trie shad trees In tho streets and the
shrubbery and flowers In parks.
The Individual plat system, nlso,
moro than any other fixes personal re
sponsibility. There Is no chance to
shirk It. If any pint shows neglect the
teacher knows whore to fix tho blame.
If another shows excellence in design
or painstaking effort, the teacher
knows where pratso should be be
stowed. It has been found In schools
where this system hns been tried that
to deprive a neglectful pupil of his
plat and give It to some one clso has
been one of the strongest Incentives
to continuous and painstaking effort,
After n pupil hns propnrod bis ground,
sown his seed mid bet towed some little
care upon the plants thnt have come iu
he very much dislikes to have the
fruits of his labor enjoyed by someouo
else.
DEVELOPMENT OF THE HOVtUEXT.
School gardens of tbe two types men.
tloned are mostly modern Institutions
No concerted movement for their es
tablishment dutes back more than thir
ty-live years. Aside from Oerutauy,
whore two or three states gave cueour
agemcnt to the establishment of school
gardens, over eighty years ago, Austria
and Sweden wcro loaders lu tho move
iflent and wcro practically coutompor
aucous In giving otlkiul encouragement
to It. Tho Austrian Imperial school
law of March 14. 1800, prescribed that
"where) practicable a cordon md place
for agricultural experiments shad lie
established at every rural school." Iu
Sweden, seven months later, a royal
circular was published which required
school gardens averaging from seventy
to eighty squaro yards to be appro
priately laid out. In both countries
tbe movement had rapid growth. la
Austria the number of school gardens
In 1S0S was estimated to be over 18,000,
nnd In some of the Austrian provinces
there Is not n school without a garden.
In Sweden the number of school Bur
dens In 181)1 wns 4070.
IIELOII'U .1KD SWITZERLAND.
In Ilelglum, since 1ST3, a law tins
been In force requiring thnt each school
have n garden of at least tblrty-nlne
and one-half square rods, to be tised In

and essays on the subject. School
gardens are maintained lu connection
with normal schools and In thnt way
llio teachers receive special training
which enables them to make the best
use of these Important Institutions. In

of great Importance In that densely

Ttin Vanity of .linn.
"Why does n man niwnyg run his
hand through his hair when he takes
his hat oft ?" asked the observant man.
"IMd you ever notice thnt mnn will
Invariably do this very thing? Is It
Just a nervous bnblt? Is It vntilty?
It Is nn old hnblt. I have never known
a man w ho did not Indulge this bnblt.
liven men who have no hair to run
their lingers through, men w'inse heads
nre ns bnld ns lillllnrd balls, will brush
their bauds over their heads when tliey
lift their bats. If the men simply
wanted to smooth their tousled linlr,
of course, this would afford ample
explanation of the habit. V.nt why
should n mnn who has no hair on bis
bend do the same thing? It Is not
n sulllclent answer to say thnt such n
man may have bnd n full stilt of linlr
nt one time, nnd thnt It Is simply n
mntter of bnblt contracted under differ
ent conditions. As a rule men nre un
conscious of tbe fact. They do not
know why, bow or when they run thelt
hands over their bends. Itut they nil
do It Just the same. (Jo Into n court
room, or nt any place whoer men con
gregate, and where It Is necessary for
them to remove their lints, nnd watch
them. You will observe thnt every
man will go through the same per
formance. It seems to be n perfectly
natural thing for them to do. My own
conclusion Is thnt It Is an evidence of
vanity. A mnn wants his linlr to be
Just so. Originally, probably It wns
simply a mntter of tidiness. lint It
has grown Into an act of vanity. The
lawyer, for Instance, If be has enough
hair for the purpose, will want bis bead
to have a tousled appearance. It gives
him a studious appearance, and leaves
th" Impression that be has been strug
gling with the books. Whatever the
reason the habit Is a curious one. nnd
one which seems to be deep-rooted In
the mascullno nature." New Orleans

One of the snd features of civil nnd
military life Is the unprepnrodness of
men In the presence of the newspaper
reporter. Without the reporter there
might be papers, but not newspapers,
lie is a necessary evil. If he be any
kind of evil. Those who fight hardest
against him and oppose bis mission
are the very ones who at some future
day need him most, nnd It Is they who
will work most strenuously to use hlin

uro to say that we of tho Fourth Estate

the art of receiving newspaper mon

In the course of a lecture nt tho Con
ference of Musicians in Dublin, Ire
land, some Interesting particulars nnd
some astonishing statistics were lveii
relatively to the amount of work ac
complished by the brain nnd nervep In
piano playing. A pianist In view of tie
present state of plnnofortc playing has
to cultivate the eye to seo about 1MW
signs In one minute, the fingers to
make about 2000 movements, nnd the
brnln to receive nnd understand separ
ately the 1500 signs while It Issues 2000
orders. In playing Weber's "Sloto per
petno," a pianist has to read 4541 notes
In a little under four minutes. This Is
nbont nineteen per second; but tlie eye
ran receive only about ten consecutive
Impressions per second, so thnt It is
evident that In very rapid ranslc a
player does not see every note singly,
bnt In groups, probnnly a bar or more
at on vision. In Chopin's "Etude In E
Minor" (In the second set) the speed of
rending Is still greater, since It Is neces
sary to read 3050 signs lu two minutes
and a halt, which Is equivalent to
about twenty-six notes per second.
Ilatty Green's Retort.
rietty Green, of New York, had fl
way of taking care of her own. even
In her youth. A Vermont neighbor tells
that while she was living on her New
England farm she had for a neighbor
a particularly unnclghborly old bach
elor. One day, wbllo tho threshers
were at work on her wheat crop, the
winnowing fan broke and she went
over In great baste to borrow her
neighbor's machine.
"Certainly," was the reply. "Mrs.
Green may use the fan, but I make it
a rule never to allow my implements to
be taken from my farm. The machine
Is In the barn, and she may bring her
grain there to be winnowed," an offer
It was manifestly impossible to accept.
Mrs. Green bad not forgotten tbe Im
plied refusal when the old bachelor
sent his hired man over one morning
to borrow her sidesaddle for tho uso
of a visiting relative,
"I shall be only too glad to favor
him," was tho word sent back by the
astute Mrs. Green, "but I never nllow
anything I own to be carried off tho
farm. My saddle Is hanging across a
beam in the barn loft. Tell Mr. Browne
to send his aunt over. Sho may ride
there ns long ns sbo likes." Philadel

I'msTeit of Hie flood lloixls Itlrn,
i HEME Is no subject to which
tho Constitution has given
I moro undivided attention thnu
g" thnt of good roads, nnd we
nro highly grntllled to see thnt the
lenven of rond Improvement Is workiug
In almost every county In (leorgln.
From day to day the Constitution
has contained excerpts from the week
ly press of the State tolling how one
county nfter (mother Is directing Its
nttciitlon to Improved blghwnys, nnd II
Is evident thnt before many years the
county In Utorgla thnt hasn't a thor
ough system of modern, well-graded,
macadamized or graveled ronds will be
the exception nnd not the rule.
The fropjoiit rains of the pnst winter
have, ns usual, tnnde the ronds almost
Impnssnblo In a mnjorlty of the coun
ties of tho State, and this hns helped
to place tbe gnod ronds Idea uppermost
In the people's minds, runners, whose
hauling has been so seriously Interfered
with thereby, nml merchants, whoso
trndc hns born correspondingly hurt,
nro coming together on the proposi
tion thnt good ronds nre tho cheapest
In the end that bnd ronds, In fact, ns
tho Constitution has so often said, nre
nbout the most expensive luxuries thnt
any community ever Indulged in.
In connection with the good ronds
movement In Georgia It Is both inter
esting nnd Important to study what
other Slates nre doing In the effort to
improve their highways. The I'ennsyl
vsiiiln Legislature, for Instance, has
Just appropriated $H,riio,(rtii to be spent
In rond building throughout the State.
Now York and other States have n
similar law providing for State nld
for those counties that uudertako to
seetiro modern ronds.
In ronnsylvniilii the Stnte nld Idea
tins tnkon firm hold. The plan just
ndopted Is for the Stnte, the county nnd
the township to co-opernte In the work
of building nnd Improving tho ronds.
The Stnto Is to pay two-thirds of tho
expense nnd tlie county nnd township
In which tho work Is done each one
sixth' of tho expense. The Stnto hns
tnnde nvnllnblo for this purpose !?(l,500,
OOO to bo expended during the next
few yenrs.
The principle involved In tho State
aid plan is exactly the same ns that
Involved In the scheme for National
nld which hns developed such populnr.
Ily recently. Tho fundamental Idea of
both Is that rond Improvement Is not
merely n mntter of local Interest and
responsibility, but a mntter of Interest
nnd concern to tho whnlo people; or
to put it another way, road building
Is coming to be viewed ns n sitcdes
of "Internal Improvement" belonging
in the sninn class as river and harbor
Improvements.
Another ronson advanced why Nn
tlonal nnd State aid are becoming go
poimlnr Is tho realization that, unless
something of the kind Is adopted, the
burden of bad roads, like the poor.
will be nlwnys with us. The bottom
loss roads of the country constitute a
sort of "slough of despond," In which
people ore destined to flounder until
some one comes along to help them
out. In fact, the expense for Improv
ing the ronds in many localities is n
burden which the local population Is
wholly unable to bear. It Is urged
that whenever the Stnte or the Nation
reaches out a helping hnnd to such
communities, they will grasp It nnd
bend all their energies to the great
work of Improving their highways,
An Eastern man who has recently
taken a trip through Texas says the
enthusiasm with which the people have
tnken up tho "good ronds Idea" Is won
dorful. In somo counties they nre lu
danger of "going wild" on the subject.
Funds arc being raised, mainly by
the Issue of comity bonds, and n sim
ilar plan In being adopted In North
Carolina
All of these plans ran bo studied
with profit by tho people of Georgia,
now that we have become aroused to
tho necessity of Improving our high
ways. Too much attention cannot he
given this all-Important subject. At

A New Electrio Lamp.
A vacuum tube of any length up to
six fret, In which mercury vapor is
raised to high incandescence, consti
tutes tho Cooper Hewitt electric
lump. The light Is curious and un
usual, being of a vivid violet hue al
most completely freo from red rays,
and Its weird effects unfit it for do
mestic use, although It la claimed to
have advantages for many purposes.
Ii Is stated to require only a seventh
as much elertrlc energy r.a the ordi
nary glow lamp, while it has run con
tinuously without renewal for 200
days of ID hours each.
