The tender crops which are grown from seed Beans, Corn, Cucumbers, Melons, Squash, Okra. Pumpkins and Water- melons should be put in as early as the gardner can estimate, as soon as danger of late frost is over. Of course it is impossible to know just when that date will be. but, if one keeps carefu watch and follows the lead of the most experienced neighbor gardener he will come pretty close to it A row or two of Beets and Corn may be put in "on a chance a little early" if one has the seed to spare as the expense is not great if the first planting does get nipped.

In his weekly financial review, under date of May 11th. Henry Clews, one of New York City's foremost bankers, says that the comparative quietness still ruling at the front suggests prepara tions for a renewed drive by the e.iemy against the Allies. The fact thet. this has not occurred earlier is proof of the exhaustion which followed the previous drive, as well as the difficulties to be overcome in carrying out the original objective of the Ger man forces. One thing is quite certain and that is, that in spite of ground lost by the Allies in the Somme district, their morale has not been impaired but has on the contrary steadily risen, while that of the Germans has as stead ily fallen. This result is attrib utable to the terrific price in lives paid by the Germans, and to disappointment at their fail ure to overcome Allied resist ance. Germany is conscious that the chances of winning this war are rapidly fading now that American troops are going across in ever increasing numbers. Sec retary Baker made the significant admission that more than half a million American soldiers are now in Franco, and there i3 rea son for believing that during 1918 we are likely to have fully a million over there. German leaders refuse to admit their doom i3 sealed, and in bitterness of spirit they prefer to wreck everything within reach rather than submit to ,xhe inevitable. The longer Germany prolongs the war the more severe and per manent the self-inflicted dmster will prove. Germany's rulers brought down upon their coun try the bitterest hatred ever con ceived. It was made in Ger many, and Germany must suffer Lthe penalty of its crime. The extraodinary success of the Third Liberty Loan should impress upon the enemy the ut ter hopelessness of carrying on the war. We raised in a few short weeks nearly $4,000,000, 000 in money contributed by 17, 000,000 or more subscribers. The enthusiasm displayed in taking the loan far exceeded all expec tations, and must be interpreted as a remarkable demonostration of American earnestness bnd un ity in the determination to carry on the war to a successful con clusion. If Jhe German people really understood the mind of the Allies, this war would quickly end, Mrs. W. M. Kendall, near Web ster Mills, returned home last Saturday evening after having visited her sister Mrs Alex Pat terson in Cumberland County, and her daughter Miss Esther at the Shippensburg Normal school.

DSBSBES3!)b How to Cut down yswr Kiel Eisporcses THINK how much cor.l you burn in a range when you're not cooking. That's all wasted money thrown'away. And Uncle Sam wants every housewife who can, to save coal. Here is a good way for you to do your part ' Use an oil cook stove instead of the fuel-wasting coal range. Then the only time you use fuel is when you are cooking. And that fuel, kerosene, is much more economical than coal. NEW PIECTJON ' OIL 0OOK-STCOVES not only give most satisfactory results they save steps in house work and do all the cooking just as well (usually better) than a coal range. Think how easy it is to strike a match and have an intense heat in less than a minute. No coal or wood to carry. No getting down on hands and knees to rake and poke at the fire. Your New Perfection is always ready when you are. But after you do get your New Perfection be care ful what kind of kerosene you use. There is only one kind that will always give most satisfactory results. It is called Atlantic Rayolight Oil to dis tinguish it from the other kinds. Ask for it by name. Atlantic Rayolight Oil is so highly refined that it burns without smoke, smell or sputter. Gives a more intense heat, too. Select your New Perfection Oil Cook stove now. There's a dealer near you.
