—e TOFE TOWN - [ELPS - Qive Most Attractive ‘Appurnnce to Qarden, and in the End Also Save Much Labor. If the garden is made in straight rows and in beds of uniform gize and shape it will not only ‘present a more, attractive appearance, thus adding to the gardener’s pride In his work, but ft will be much easler to cultivate. This latter fact is an important ifem for consideration, as the average city resident has none too much time in which to cultivate his garden and the work must be done if results are to be obtained. - Frequent plowing, as much work as possible with the hoe, and extermination of every weed that ‘shows its head above the ground—all .these are necessary if the garden is to produce to the limit of its capac- ity. E ‘To Insure that the rows will be per- fectly straight all that is necessary is a length of strong cord sufficient to reach from end to end of the garden’s longest dimension. At each end of the cord fasten a stout stake about two feet long and sharpened at one end so the stakes may easily be thrust into the sofl. In city and town gardens, where the space is restricted,. it, Is best to have the rows run the long way of the garden—north to south if possi- ble—planting several kinds of similar- iy grown vegetables, like green ontons, carrots, radishes, etc,, in‘the same row. If you plant such crops as beets, radishes and onlons in beds these can be made four to six Inches high by digging ngrrow paths around the beds with a hoe and throwing the soil upon the beds. When the drainage of the garden is not good it is well to grow cabbage, cauliflower and simllar crops on small ridges thrown up with spade or hoe. Other crops, among them early peas and celery, should be planted in shal- fow trenches scooped out with a hoe. When these plants grow the sofl is gradually, worked back around the roots. ° Since hoelng must start early and sometimes when the soll becomes caked above the planted seeds it Is necessary to break It, a few quick- growing radish seeds plante® with other .gorts - will quickly epring up and show where the rows hre. I Speed and the Alrship. Traveling from Dayton to Detroit ‘4n two hours is “going some.” Major Smith ‘did Tt the other day on an air- plane and carrled s _passenger with hint. Does anyone doubt that a device ‘which makes: posalble such a comet- 1ike trip ‘wil] be permitted to fall nto disuse after it has served Its purpose 4n the war? . The thing which the world wants mbst just now is peace. Next to peace the chief desire.of man- Xkind centers upon speed. If the -alr- ‘plane had. nothing more than- its ‘speed -to commend i, we might be sure that it would be 'pressed Into aise for passenger traffic. Since It has teen demonstrated that aircraft may be made us comfortablé and-as, safe as cars which are hauled upon-tracks and ships that sall the- seas, we may pe sure that the day is not far dis- tant when “the squadvons of " the ekies” will be utilized for pleasure end for peaceful enterprise. FILIPINO SCHOOL CHILDREN. The latest school census fiu the Philippines shows that there are about 66,000 Filipino children at- tending school. For them there are 11,000 native teachers and 500 American instructors. When the United States took hold of educa- tion in the islands there were 800 American teachers. At first the Philippine teachers assumed charge of the primary work, then the inter- mediate, and now some are teaching in the high schools.—Argonaut. How Are They Biting?
