The plight of thousands of widows is equally grave. Ac- = cording to the U. S. Census Bureau, 32 per cent of all the % widows in this country must work for a living. Many of these women once had fine homes.

For example most persons with little or nothing today, have, in the past earned sufficient, which if it had been wisely invested would have provided for all of their © needs. Most persons wasle and fritter away enough time with foolish and petty trifles to give themselves a good broad edu- cation through reading and study.

HOW ARE YOUR SHOES: 'T WAIT TOO LONG Hints to Gardeners By Gilbert Bentley Flower Expert Ferry Seed Station Looking Toward Fall ITH the spring planting season past and the returns already coming in from this year's flower gardens, thoughts turn regretfully to fall. Let us conclude the summer gar- den “Hints” with suggestions on fall bulb planting. Save this in- formation on how to plant bulbs. Bulbs are planted in fall to give them opportunity to develop ample root growth. It is the safer prac: tice to protect bulbs in the ground with a mulch of leaves or straw. Mulch should be put on after the ground is frozen hard. It is inten- ded to protect them from the dam- age of alternate freezing and thaw- ing, not from the cold. One of the most important fae- tors in successful bulb flower grow- ing is proper planting. Well-drained loam should be used. Press soil around bulbs well so there are no air spaces. Depth of planting must be care- fully measured. Observe these recommended depths: Anemone, one inch deep, crocus, snowdrop and scilla, 2 inches; jonquil and tulip. 3 inches; hyacinth and narcissus, 4 inches, and lily, 5 inches. When measuring depth, measure from the top of the bulb. For instance, set hyacinth under four inches of soil. Bulbs should be set the following distances apart: Anemone, 4 to 6 inches, crocus and snowdrop, 2 inches; scilla, 3 inches; jonquil, 6 inches; tulip, 4 inches; hyacinth, € inches; narcissus, 6 to 12 inches, and lily, 12 inches or more. It always pays to buy bulbs of fine quality. Good, healthy bulbs are always firm and comparatively heavy for their size. Never allow unmixed fertilizer to come in direct contact with bulbs. When fertilizer is used mix very thoroughly with soil before plant. ing bulbs. weet Ci ree Advertise in The Bulletin. Posts Bail (From page 1) Hospital.
