An average plant produces about. 1',000 seeds. The seeds are alis. persed by water and birds but chiefly as an impurity in seeds. Contrary to the belief of many fanners, a heavy infestation of Wild Mustard( does reduce the yield of grain by as much as 3 or 10 bush- els per acre, by the deeltion of soil moisture and plant food.

Green is Nature'sown background. Grass paths are made in several ways; the flower beds, may be cut into the lawn, leaving the grass be- tween; the paths may be narrow an dstraight with rather deep bor- dering gutters; they may be edged in barious ways; or they may be irregular, wide strips — places, where one may loiter and admire the flowers in the beds, * * * BRICK PATHS Where stones are not available, bricks make fine paths. There are several ways or using them, No maitre how laid, bricks are more precise than atones can ever be, Brick (paths usually have etralght edges, but the path itself may be curbing or winding in. direction. The brick may be laid on side, flat faced narrow edge or in block de- sign like a checkerboard. Bricks, too, often loan the bindings for hand, cinder, pebplle, asbesi grass or band -packed dirt paths. They are then laid on end, on their sales, giving a rick -rack deign, to the bor- der. Bricks placed crosswise side by side make narrow paths which ecarcely hfoow between ;planta, but are verp useful whether it is desir able to get tb emus tar -back 'port of the flower beds. A six-inch layer of ashes makes a good path If one can have spa.. tdence while it is getting packed down enough, sot to track into thle house, HANDY HINTS A SHOWER PARTY Thu* is no occasion whlck be- longs so much, to women a8 a show- er party.
