EARLY GARDEN CROPS.
Seed Should Be SOwn as Soon as the
Ground Can BE Worked.

Seed Should Be Sown as Soon as the
Ground Can BE Worked.
There are a number of vegetables
that can be sown as early in the spring
as the condition of the soil will adj
Iait. They start to grow early and will
supply salads and early vegetables in
good season. To secure the best re-
suits all preparatory work should be
done in advance, so that at the first IA
vorable opportunity the planting can
be done.
There is no advantage in attempting
to make the garden until the soil is
i'll condition to be worked readily into
n fine filth. But it is we'll to have every
thing in readiness. One item is thor
oughly to pillow the ground. Soil that is
well plowed and we'll drained will not
only dry out earlier, but will warm up
quicker than if left undisturbed until
saring. 1t is always best to pillow deep
and thorough, and in finishing, run out
burrows wherever necessary to pro-
vide good drainage.
Whatever manuring is necessary can
also be done during the winter. The
manure used i'll the garden should be
thoroughly rottcd and refined, for two
reasons. One is that this condition is
necessary, so that it can be well in
corporated with the soil. The other is
that in order to be available the plant
food in the manure or fertilizer must
be soluble, and rotting and filming are
essential in making it easily soluble.
Another advantage in rotting the ma
Eure is that any weed seeds it may con-
tain will be destroyed. 1t pays to ma
Eure literally. There is little danger
of having the soil too rich. 4 good
rich soil, thoroughly prepared, is one
of the first essentials in having a good
garden.
Another thing that can be looked aft
er in advance is the seed. Good seed
is another essential to a good crop of
any kind, and for the early garden it is
necessary to secure what is needed in
good season.
In making up the list it is always best
TO rely upon old standard varieties for
the main crop, trying novelties on
small scale until their value is ascer-
tained. 1t is well to remember that the
extraordinary growth and yield Sc
cured with many novelties are the re-
suit of the most favorable conditions
OF growth, and that varieties that do
we'll in one locality and kind of soil
often prove failures when grown under
entirely different conditions.
Do not get too many varieties. With
quite a number, one early and one late
suffice, while in some cases it will be
better to have an early, medium and
late, in order to maintain supply with
tine least trouble
Onions, radishes, lettuce. spinach.
peas, beets,. early cabbage, kale, can
all be sown as soon as the soil can be
worked in the spring-St. Louis Re-

There is one large house in this country

A Horrible Picture of Conditions as

The Chicago Times-Herald recently
had the following covering the suffer
ing in the wicked city by the lake:
In local descriptive article
Chicago has 5000 families actually starv-
ut has 10000 wives. husbands and chill
dren begging for bread-begging for a pit
lance of food to keep the body and soul
together-huddled into single rooms and
freezing in the blizzard that visited the
city yesterday. 1t has n mightier cry for
pity than it had at the close of the worlds
fair
Editorially the paper said:
Perhaps since the great IRE there has
not been a keener occasion for generous
giving. The country Is now in the fourth
year of q period of hard times. very rich
men have had their fortunes trimmed. so

haIf-famished shapes confront US on the

This is a horrible picture, and yet
e is not overdrawn, according to all in

time for sorrow and for action than

humanity feels, it can but be remem-
bered that what the Times-Herald has
been fighting for is continuation OF

from Cleveland, and now four years
of gold standard policy, of the same

Mr.. Bryan has, without intending it,
perhaps, added to the politica! nomen-

so-called gold democrats to the duck
ling and disturbing element of an old
hens household was timely, happy and
to the point.
But the democratic eagle doesn't pro-
pose to have any web-footed children in
her brood, to paddle across the ocean
and swim back with ready-made Euro
