PAGE EIGHT THE BISMARCK TRIBUNE TREAT PLANTS LIKE CHILDREN Burbank Tells How to Grow Flowers and Vegetables By Luther Burbank (Copyright, 1924, NEA S , Inc.) Santa Rosa, June 17--Sou fertilizers are recognized every where as essential to good garden- | ing There are two things equally es sential, but fare too frequently neg lected. These are interest and un derstanding. Myriad are where adjoining gardens will show utmost parity in productiveness tractiven Inn ten the reason lies two attributes the cases two and at causes out of in luck of these the one ssion in thi in garden, oth and flowers are like little folk hey have their likes and their dislike their demands ana their antipathies hese must ba studied with great sre in order that best results may be obtained It would be impossible to lay out any this care. It differs in the case of the various plants just as it differs in the ease of various child General Rules Only a few general cules can be given, equally applicable to all vege tebles and flowers usually grown in the amateur garden Young seedling plants should watered lightly once a day they et! root. Do not use Water at this stage, just enough to keep the ground moist, wet Alter the plants have taken root 4 once-a-week watering is sufficient This should be a thorough soaking Reason for this is found in our simile of plants und human beings A thirsty man will go to wa if water will not come to him. So will a plant. As soon as a plant hus de Yeloped roots its one of journeying — it will make efforts to reach in gluse propinquity. If watered daily, there is no ned for the roots to “feel out” for mois ture. But a once-a-week watering Will make the roots progress through the ground in search of available moisture--and thus you will obtain what you want, a deep rooted plant which will not need daily coddling, protection and watering. Like Humans The cells of plants are like those of persons. ‘Through these they get their nourishment, brought to them by water. And they are controlled, as are those of human beings, by Ratural reactions. When men ex ercise and become heated. cells of their bodies open to permit more freedom in body breathing. Simi lur cells of plants open in warm atmosphere. Nature has shaped the cells of Fiunts for greatest convenience, elongated in the stem and flattened in the leaves. Food carrii into plants through these long body cells goes to the leaves where it turns first to sugar and starch. The im portance of seeing that these cells do not become clogged by unnaturat set of rules for be until oo much not means. and impedimental matter is appar ent, Do not use fertilizers unintelli- gently—any more than you would feed a child food which would cause it to become sick. Commercial ter- tilizers, and fertilization matter from poultry yard and barnyard are 60d complete balanced food when used intelligently with regard to the perticular plants. Hard adobe. soils can be softened with lime, Just one word more in regard to a hint for increasing Your interest and understanding of plants, Make your girden as attractive as possible Make it a place where you will love to linger, finding real pleasure there instead ‘of only a place where a cer tain amount of “work” must be per formed. Home Beautified Flowers properly belong in front of the house and vegetables in the rear. But vines along a fence or the side of the house serve a double pur Pose one of which is beautification. Or should you not desire to grow grape or berry vin sweet peas along the back ifence are well worth while to lend attractiveness. A little giass house or lean-to, i space is available, is ideal for the winter and spring and will do much toward making your garden a suc ility to all parts of mportant. But do not make your.pathways too wide. This is mere waste of space, A border ot boards or of concrete is advisable. I know you will find more pleasure and get much better results from yeur garden if you thus do every thing possible to enhance its good appearance. Atid then it will be a mere matter of time until you and your plants come to a full. and sym- puthetic understanding, WOMEN EARN $10.00 DAILY distributing the wonderful “Medical Adviser.” by Dr, Pierce.

Hunt NEA Serviee Writer Washington, June 17—Pigs are not just pigs to Senator Arthur Capper of Kansas. To Capper, pigs signify, above all else, opportunity. That's why Capper is prouder of being the father of the Capper Pig Clu than he xovernot of his state or of his present seat in the United States Senate. Years ago Capper found in his mail an appeaf from a boy whe wanted to buy a pig. His plea for 8 pig was sq genuinely that of an. ambitious youngster who wanted the | porker as a toe-hold on the ladder | of advancement, that Capper decia- ed to take a chance. He wrote the youngster a letter of -commendation and encourage- ment, enclosing: a-check for enough money to buy a pig, but stipulating that the money was a loan, not 2» gift, and shguld be ‘repaid out of Bismarck, No. Dak. ty of Chicago stu-! is of having been! profits after a herd had been de- veloped.

But he has never los a dollar so advanced. lished, the idea has broadened to in- clude poultry clubs for gitls, And these have been equally successful. Childless himself, Capper has his in hearing of the boys and girls whom he has assisted to a start in life. The benefits have not been ic, alone, he feels. More than the financial aid this stance has given the youth of state, he believes, is the growth eter and initiative that has heen developed through these clubs. He feels he is helping Kansas pro- try, but better men and women. The Proclamation of Emancipa- tion was written in Washington. The fourteenth peer to the Constitution, establishing the <civil ‘und legal equality of whites and hacks was enacted in Washington.

The proposed amend- ment is revised from the amendment for which signatures were sought last winter. It is proposed: To fix the limit of the state’s bonded debt without security ut $18,000,000. To authorize and direct issuance of not to exceed $4,000,000 of bonds te proceeds of which are to ve used to pay depositors in closed hanks whose deposits are guaranteed by the Depositors Guaranty Fund Commission and not to exceed $2,- 000,000, the proceeds of which are to be used by the Bank of North Da- kota to buy pledged notes and securi- ties for loans to insolvent banks.

To do this it was necessary to get the price per share down to a point where investors of mod- erate means would find the stock attrac- tive. This was accomplished by distributing the working surplus among the share- holders, as a stock dividend, and reducing the par value from $100 to $25. Today the Standard Oil Company (Ind- iana) is owned by 46,016 shareholders — 12,135 of whom are employes; and 13,253 are women — no single share- holder owns as much as 6% of the total stock and the price per share at this writing is $57.00. Among the larger shareholders are many educational and philanthropic institutions who depend upon the dividends derived from their holding in this Company to carry on certain phases of their work. For example, we cite the Rockefeller Foundation andthe General Educational Board whose activities extend to all parts of the world, bettering the living condi- tions for millions, lessening the burdens of the afflicted, enlightening the youth, and expanding the educational facilities of the world. The service rendered to society by the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) is of a broad and varied nature. Not only does it supply the thirty million people of ten Middle Western products of superior, quality.in such a way as to have gained their confidence, ° respect and esteem, but the profits accru- ing to the shareholders from the opera- tions of this Company are used in large part for the welfare of all the people and to make the world a better place in which to live.
