Solving the Problem.
A young salesman had embezzled
from his kind-hearted employer a con-
siderable sum of money and had lost
every cent of it on the races. He was
apprehended, and the boss didn’t know
just what to do about it.
“Keep him on the job and deduct
what he owes you from his pay,”
counseled an advisor.
“But,” wailed the victim, “the
amount is too large. He could never
make it up that way. His wages are
too small.”
The other ruminated for a moment.
Then his face cleared.
“Well, then raise his salary,” he
suggested.—American Legion Week- |

The Gardener Whe Really Cares, and Who Is Depending Upon His Own Past
Experience to Gain the Best Results—the First Vegetables and Flowers

Do Not Overcrowd

S—————————— i
Overcrowding, perhaps, is the great |
est fault of the average gardener, Be |
cause the plants are small when they |
first appear above ground, he will noi !
space them properly, because they look |
lonesome with an expanse of bare soil |
between them. However, they will!
grow fast, and at maturity will use’
all the space allowed them, and usual |
ly are growing into and over each
other. |
This fault should be corrected when |
the transplanting is done; or if the]
seeds are sown in the open ground, hy
judicious thinvring. Follow direciions,
which are always contained on seed
packets as to proper distances, to the!
letter. Work with a tape measure
or yardstick. The crop of many.
vegetables ‘will be in proportion to the |
chance they have to develop, The |
bush lima bean is an excellent object
lesson. Many gardeners have given |
up the bush lima as not being produc-
tive enough to justify its space. But
give the individual bushes 18 inches
apart, so they will have a chance, and
there will be a bountiful crop with
ordinarily good soil and moisture con-
ditions. |
The rule to follow in transplanting
seedlings is to move them as soon as |
the leaves touch, The first trans-
planting should be done when the
first pair of true leaves appear. If |
they are not placed at sufficient dis-
tance, and often it is not convenient
to do so at this time, because of lack
of space indoors or in the hotbed, be
prepared to move them when the de-
veloping leaves touch. If you do not,
they will begin to spindle In the

viate this loss by developing strong
fibrous root systems, especially in the
case of plants which, undisturbed,
form tap roots, or a long root that
goes straight down some distance be-
fore giving off branches. When this’
long root has developed far the plant
receives a severe check in being trans-
planted, from which it takes a long
time to recover.—National Garden Bu-
reau.
SPRAYING TREES
Spray fruit trees with arsenate ot
ead and bordeaux mixture first, as
the buds swell; second, when the blos-
soms show their characteristic color;
and third, as the last of the petals are
falling.
GARDEN TOOLS
The first cost of garden tools is of
.ninor consideration. The care they
are given and the years of usefulness
is the all important factor.

Good Seed Bed Is
Always Necessary
Soil Should Be Carefully
Sifted Before Placed
in Containers.
A sponge’s capacity to take vp wa-
ter is largely dependent upon the size
of the holes in it. A coarse sponge
with holes as wide in diameter as the
finger and many of them, will not hold
as much moisture in suspension as
will a sponge of the same size with
Ane pores and smaller orifices.
The soil acts as a sponge, holding
moisture for the plants, and the finer
the more readily it holds
moisture and the more moisture will it
contain, Finely sifted and close
packed, the tiny rootlet of the seedling
comes in contact with its nourishment
If
the soil is lumpy, with large inter-
stices, a seed may send its first sprout

AND WELL WORTH THE EFFORT:
out into space until it can reach more
closely packed earth, The fine soil
draws moisture from the bottom up-
ward by capillary attraction, and the
finer it is the more readily the mois-
ture is drawn through the surface and
the soil evenly moistened. In coarse,
lumpy soil the water is not drawn up
regularly from below,
For this reason it is necessary to
take extra care to sift the soil for
seed boxes, and for the top layer of
the hotbed or coldframe. In order to
prevent too rapid drying out, it is nec-
essary to pack the fine soil firmly
over the seeds.
The coarse screenings from the soil
are useful to spread over the bottom
of the seed box to provide drainage.
Over this the fine soil should be
spread evenly and firmed down. The
finer the soil and the more fertile it
is the better the germination and
quicker the growth of the little plants.
A great deal of seed is wasted, and
many attempts at sowing seeds in-
doors prove failures at the very start
because the soil is not properly pre-
pared. Next to this is the failure to
provide suitable drainage. The seed
box must he built so that the soil will
retain moisture, but will not remain
water soaked and sour. Overwater
ing promotes a fungous disease known
as “damping off” which causes the
seedlings to rot off at the surface of
the soi’. This fungus often will ruin-
a box of seedlings before the grower
knows what is happening. It can be
obviated by providing drainage at the
start—Na2a:lonal Garden Bureau.

- To Check a Cold.
_ Sometimes a chill or chilly feeling
indicates a beginning cold. At the
time the sensation is first felt one
should go home and get into a hot
bath and then from this (after drying
the body by vigorous rubbing) go im-
1 mediately to bed in order to get ineo
a perspiration. Chilling drives the
blood from the surface of the body
into the lungs, bronchial tubes or else-
where. An inflammation begins then,
unless one hastens to open the pores
by a hot bath and free perspiration.
A hot drink—hot lemonade or hot
tea—after the bath aids greatly in ex-
citing perspiration. As soon as there
is a feeling of warmth and considera-
ble perspiration the subject invaria-
bly falls into a sound sleep. He should
remain in bed until the next morning.
_If there is any headache or diges-
tive disturbance it is always advisa-
ble to take citrate of magnesia or cas-
tor oil at bedtime.

So Was This Bellefonte Woman Who
Tells Her Experience.
All too often women accept their
pains and aches as natural to their
sex. They fail to realize that weak
kidneys are often to blame for that
backache, those headaches, dizzy
spells and that tired, depressed feel-
ing. Thousands have found new
health and strength by helping the
weakened kidneys with Doan’s Pills—
a stimulant diuretic. This Bellefonte
case is one of many:
Mrs. Susan Lyons, R. F. D. No. 1,
Box 49, says: “I suffered with disor-
dered kidneys and my back gave out
and ached as if it would break. I was
hardly ever free from nervous, dizzy
headaches. J used Doan’s Pills bought
at Zeller & Son’s drug store and was
relieved.”
Price 60c, at all dealers. Don’t
simply ask for a kidney remedy—get
Doan’s Pills—the same that Mrs.
Lyons had. Foster-Milburn Co.

Foot Trouble is Unnecessary, unless
caused by some Physical Ailment.
he trouble with the average person is
that they do not give foot trouble
the proper attention. Ill-fitting shoes
usually cause foot trouble—and fitting feet
is a profession. Thirty-seven years at the
game of fitting feet eliminates all guess
work as to our proficiency in that respect.
Mr. Wilbur Baney, our clerk, has had twen-
ty-five years experience. We do not guess.
We know how to give you the proper size,
and the kind of shoes that your feet need.
