Pittsburgh Newspaper Regards Idea
With Favor, but Has Doubt of Its
Practicability.
Baltimore comeB forward with a
community back yard idea, already the
Bubject of practical experiment in
that city, remarks the Pittsburgh Dis
patch. It aims to abolish the unsight
ly back yard aud Its rubbish-hiding
fences, and to create instead a neigh
borhood open Bpace or park and play
ground that would keep the chil
dren off the Btreets and offer residents
Instead of a little cooped-up and prac
tically useless piece of private domain
a chance to stretch themselves and en
joy a freedom of movement to he had
In no other way.
A correspondent who directs atten
tion to the scheme suggests that It
might be expanded into a factor In
reducing the cost of living It the com
munity would devote part of the
open space to growing fruit or garden
truck.
Admirable as the Idea may seem in
the abstract, it may be questioned
whether neighborhood human nature
has arrived at the perfection neces
sary to Its success. It la not difficult
to imagine a refractory resident an
gered by some neighbor spoiling the
whole plan by restoring his fences.
It may be doubted, too, whether this
could be avoided by any binding agree
ment being secured in advance. Then,
alBo, there Is alwayB the possibility of
an untidy neighbor mussing up the
community back yard, of clothesline
fights and dogs and chickens and all
the numerous troubles that add spice
it not sweetness to neighborhood ex
istence.
ANCIENTS KNEW OF GLAZING
Proof That Early Inhabitants of Mex
ico Used Process In the Mann
facture of Pottery.
The discovery by Henry C. Mercer
of Daylestown, Pa., that the ancient
Inhabitants of Mexico used a glazing
process In the manufacture of their
pottery has revolutionized the views
of ceramic expertB at the University
of Pennsylvania, and may lead, says
American Art News, to the discovery
of bedB of day suitable for use today.
Mr. Mercer, who Is an expert on til
ing, and a former curator of the Uni
versity museum, during a recent study
of Mexican potteries at the museum,
had. his attention called to the vari
ance In workmanship In certalh col
lections. He promptly classified the
potteries as possessing two different
kinds of clay, and was surprised to
■find that a diBtlnct' glaze was still ap
parent.
The ancient Egyptians, says Mr.
Mercer, did not glaze their works, the
-Chinese adopted this precaution at a
later date to make their vessels Im
pervious to water. Civilization had
been established by this time, how
ever, and the use of the glazing art
hy prehistoric Mexicans may unfold
interesting ceramics.

GOOD IN GARDEN MOVEMENT
City of Duluth Has Demonstrated
That It Is of Value In Many
Different Ways.
In the summer of 1913, the Duluth
Commercial club obtained three va
cant lots In different parts of the
city and put a man In charge of the
three tracts. He conducted demon
stration gardening through the sea
son; was always available to help puz
zled gardeners; guided the school chil
dren in their work, and otherwise
stimulated the garden movement In
the city.
From an Importer of garden prod
ucts, Duluth became at least a pro
ducer of Its own supplies. Duluth’s
hinterland Is developing agricultural
ly, but the garden movement In the
city has lost none of Its significance.
It has promoted the ownership of
many homes; It has drawn children
from the street anil made them gar
den enthusiasts; It has Induced great
er efficiency among wage-earners
through contentment and more health
ful surroundings, and It has made Du
luth a city of gardens beautiful to be
hold.
Of greater value to Duluth is the
moral effect on the city. Tho rising
generation Is one of gardeners. Fac
tory workers and office employes not
only raise their own vegetables, but
they have developed their bodies by
the exercise. The demand for saloons,
gambling houses and similar resorts
Is dying out.
Camphor Trees for Streets.
A trade journal quotes a Texas nur
seryman as saying that the camphor
tree Is very popular for street planting
In the southern part of that Btate
that It is never troubled by insect
pests and that mosquitoes will avoid
it.
No tree is exempt from Insect pests
and camphor trees may be found with
euch a thick Incrustation of the red
scale of the orange that bark on twigs
may scaroely bo seen. Mosquitoes
avoid camphor and Its fumes and
therefore will not literally “roost 1
upon the tree, but they do not avoid
the general territory In which
grows. The camphor tree Is a prime
favorite In, southern California and
we do not allow fear of Insect pests
to deter us from planting it wherever
and whenever opportunity presents,—
Loa Angeles Times.
Encouragement of Thrift.
In Chicago there haB been started
an association for the encouragement
of thrift. Far-seeing men are behind
the movement, confronted with the
enormous waste In time, opportunity,
and material which has been a natural
Inheritance from a generation that
found everything to spare at hand,
This condition no longer exists,
changed economic condition calls for
changed methods of living, to which
tho people must be educated. As the
lasting and formative influences are
those belonging to childhood, the
school garden may be counted upon
to play no small part in bringing about
a better understanding of the elements
of living, all the way from the mar
ket basket onward to the best that
goes to make happy* and prosperous
homes.
Does More Harm Thar, Good,
The charity Is bad which takes from
Independence Its proper pride and
from mendicity its salutary shame.—

a number of cities local work has boon

ore available, those who are In po
sition to know claim that consumption
takes annually from 600,000 to 1,000,-
llves In China alone. In India the
death rate Is fully as highland on*ac
count of caste distinctions and native
superstitions, the problem of preven
tion and treatment Is peculiarly diffi
cult. The Japaneee government has
taken a hand officially In tho control
of tuberculosis, and Is co-operating
with two well-organized private asso
ciations. The death rate, while very
high, is lower than In China and In

Here he married Sarah and here ho
