THE LAKE SHORE NEWS. FRIDAY, APRIL t» 1918. Flowers i .. . , â-  â-  ••:, .

Binnia. Here are a tar pointers on each of them: Aseratum.â€"The ageratum is one of the few blue flowere wo have, in its form it somewhat resembles the unite/ reiisbed them so. they preferred them t) even deer meat.' The Indians fortu nately had Plenty of doga and from them the explorers bought in ever In- creasing quantities. From here they continued on till they reached . the broad' waters of the Columbia. I I saw Steptoe Butte as I came to Pullman. It is a little to the north of bare and is celebrated as the scene o; an early Indian.fight, in which the white troops were commanded by Col- onel B. J. Steptoo. It was in 1857 that Chief Kaminhkan and Chief Owhi set about stirring their pcoplo to war. The Spokanes, Palouse and Okano- gons became ubeasy under their per sasion. The horses and cattle at Fort Walla Walla belonging to the army were stolen.while several whites Were killed near the Palouse river by the Indians. Col. Steptoe with one hundred and nity-nine men marched into the hostile country and it was in this roll- ing county that he found his force op- posed by fifteen hundred fully armed Indians, bedaubed with war paint and tcfeathered with war bonnet . The battle Which followed was a strenuous one for the aoldiera. With a madness which cannot be explained, Btepfoe kid led his men forth with but scanty •mmuhition. Steptoe and his men re- treated to a. high hill, since known aa Steptoe Butte, and here a battle waa •Wajid euit* a* *SjhnMStO « Cnmtmr %as to. have two d&ades later on the Little Big nets; but rortunttely not sc! to be equally as dlsastroaa. It waa while the fighting on the butte was going on that Lieutenant Gaston, one, of the bravest of the troops, was kUled 'and only by the most herculean efforts were the men restrained from a stricken light.

For that reason .many ooaJNasttoaa with them are possible. . Tho plants are neat, bushy, and erect, and produce a profusion of «brush-like flowers throughout tike season. The dwarf blue sorts make fine borders end are much used where contrasting color effects are desired. For early bloom the seed should be sown in cold frames or in boxes in the house early hi the season (March), but for sum- mer and fall bloom the seeds may be sown In April or early la May in well-prepared beds in the open. Seede sown in August will produce good plants for winter flowering. Nasturtium.â€"The large seeds of the nasturtium require to be planted much deeper than the fine seeds of the pe- tunia. Sow them In rows where the plants are to grow, placing the seeds about 6 inches apart in. the row and coyer them about an inch deep. When all plants are up, thin so that they stand a foot apart if the soil Is rich; If rather thin, it will be as well to al- low them to stand at the planting dis- tance. The plants should, bo given clean cultivation to induce rapid growth. If planted in the open at the same time that beans arc planted, very satisfactory results will follow. For earlier bloom plant in advance of this date in hotbeds, cold frames or window boxes. eta Radishes, lettuce, beans,, beets and tomatoes are all comparatively eas- ily-grown vegetables which give sat- isfactory returns in the spring garden. Tie United * ittoHnns/a particularly for use in school gardens which/Tare run for the benefit of the children. Not only teachers, but others desiring to raise these truck crops in their .own homo gardens may benefit from these suggestions s: .i . Radishes. Radishes are hardy plants and thrive best during the cool weather of early spring and late autumn. In the south they can best be grown dur- ing the winter and early spring months. The seeds should be sown in drills, in rich, well-prepared placed about half an Inch apart and buried not deeper than one inch nor less than one-half inch. When the plants are showing the second set'of true leaves they should be thinned to stand from two to three Inches apart .hi the1 row. Lettuce. Lettuce is a hardy plant and thrives best during early spring and late au- tumn. The seeds should be sown in drills in the open, or in boxes in the window. If in the open, the seeds should be scattered about one-half inch apart along the row, and covered not more - than one-half inch With earth. Firm the earth well over the seeds, so as to bring the moist son in contact with- them. When the plants are well up, thin to six inches apart in the row. If the seeds were sown in a window box, hotbed, frame, or greenhouse, transplant the young plants to stand two by two inches •Part as soon the the seed leaves are well expanded, and when they be- gin to crowd transfer them to their permanent bfice In the open, if the weather will permit In the held, they should stand at least six inches apart each wayi.. â- " ~ ' . . Beans. --.„_,... tender plants. They can- not endure frost and will not stood transplanting well. It is best to wait and plant the seeds of this plant in the open where the plants, are to tgrow, delaying the work until severe frosts are peat, i Blant ^roifli one foot apart.- placing the seeds about two inches deep at intervale of six laches. Keep! the soil loose and free from weeds. ? Beets. Beets, while they^are hardy and can .â- * Planted at the some time aa rad- ishes and lettuce, require a longer season for maturing. >. Tho seeds should be planted in rows one foot arart, placed an inch apart lathe row -*â- Â«â-  covered one Inch the plants are well up (two inches high), thin to 4 laches anart in tea row. Keep the soil well tilled at all tunes.' of March, the being plants transplanted to stand • two by two inches apart as soon as the first true leaves appear. When they begin to tions, shift as are used by cuumvTb of tomatoes. and keep them growing slowly until about May 20 to June 1, when it will be safe to place thesn. in their perma- nent locations in the garden. Set the plants In rows eighteen inches apart and place the plants about twent; inches apart in the rows. Each plant as it grows should have all side branches removed and th main stem tied to a stout stake abou five feet tall and at least an Inch square, driven firmly 'in the ground. qnejtttg; cl thai 8tafee ttons special consideration hen to be given each section. The department's specialists have prepared a special list of trees and shrubs suited for gen private parks and school yards for each of the five general divisions of the United States. The kind for Illi- nois and the central West are aa fol- lows: a' V, \ .;;;' Deciduous Treesâ€"Sugar maple. Nor- way maple, silver maple, green ash, white ash. American white rim,,red oak, white oak, pin oak, American linden. Evergreen Trees Norway spruce, white spruce, Colorado blue spruce, white pine. Scotch pine, balsam ttr. Shrubsâ€"Lilac, golden bell, exo- chorda, snowball, mock orange, hy- drangea. Japan quince, flowering cur- rant, calycanthus. cornus, deutsia, spiraea, weigela. The beauty of a shade tree depends upon its normal and symmetrical growth. In order to insure this, be- fore planting cut off the ends of all broken or mutilated roots; remove all side branches, save .upon evergreens, so that,a straight, whip-Mae stalk alone remains. Dig holes at least two feet in diameter'and one foots deep In good them four feet across > sldeiBd holes should be perpendicular and the bottom flat â€" â€" sr ^ sT^essiB»»o»em»aws> asssnaasa ssr« â- â-  oi visajgei unsnsw to the depth of the length of a three Inches aoda another er. in the bot- tom of the hole. «s> top of tots place tho roots of the ti evenly as possible over the bottom of the hole, and cover with two or three Inches of.. fine top soil as before. Tramp firmly with the feet and All the hole with good earth, leaving tho sur- face loose and a little higher than the surface of the eurrounding soil. When tho work of piantleg is completed tho: tree should stand about two laches deeper than It stood In the nursery. In order to Insure symmetry of growth, trees must bo allowed unre- stricted area for development. 552 MAUDCf OAftDCN. Maude is growing gardenful As she did but year.
