THE GARDEN KEYBOARD

Set the main crop Of celery. If the
soil is rich and can be irrigated try set
ting the plants seven inches apart.
AS soon as crop Of beans is off pull
up the vines and plant sweet corn, late
cabbage or turnips.
Radishes for winter use may be
grown and stored in the same manner
as turnips, according to Professor
Green Of Minnesota. The seed is sown
In June or July.
Warfare with weeds should be siren
uous and incessant at this season, as 1t
means so much for peace in the future.
Set out peppers, elephants, tomatoes,
late cabbage and caulifiower.
Plant cucumbers for pickles and
beans for the main crop.
Satisfy needs long season, and one
gardener claims that the soil must be
only moderately rich if long, straight
roots are desired.

THEODORE ROOSEVELT has

THEODORE ROOSEVELT has
done a great many wonderful
things, but none eclipse the sue
cess with which he has treated
the Russian and japanese war
matter, and the bringing to-
gether of the beligerents to
agree upon terms of peace will
likely terminate the greatest and
bloodiest war the world has ever
known. The world applauds
this greatest of all efforts in
diplomacy, and once again hats
are off to Americas president,
who "does things" Roosevelt
called in the japanese and Rus
sian representatives at Washing
ton and instructed the represent
atives of this country to get busy.
and finally had things in shape
so that a note was sent to Russia
and Japan, which bore fruit.
Both Russia and Japan acceded
to the request of the president.
and their representatives will
likely meet and conclude peace.
Russia has been advised as
to about what the japanese will
demand, so that there will likely
be no serious hitch in the pro-
ceedings.
The text Of the dispatch sent
June 9Th by President Roosevelt
to Japan and Russia is as follows:
"The President feels that the
time has come when in the inter
est of all mankind he must en-.
deavor to see if it is not possible
to bring to an end the terrible
and lamentable conflict now be.
ing waged.
"With both Russia and Japan
the United States has inherited
ties of friendship and good will.
It hopes for the prosperity and
welfare of each, and it feels that
the progress of the world is set
back by the war between these
two great nations.
"The President accordingly
urges the Russian and Japanese
government, not only for their
own sakes, but in the interest Oh
the whole civilized world, to open
neutrality-suspicious. for peace with
one another. The President
suggests that thesepeace negotia
tions be conducted directly and
exclusively between the belig.
erents; IN other words, that there
be a meeting of Russian and
japanese plenipotentiaries OF
delegates without any informed
iary, in order to see if it is not
possiblefor these representatives
of the two powers to agree tC
terms of peace. The. President
earnestly asks that the Russian,
(Japanese) government do now
agree to such a meeting, aud is
asking the (Japanese) RUSSIAN
government likewise to agree.
''While the President does no
feel thatany intermediary should
be called in, respect to the
peace negotiations themselves
he is entirely willing to do VIVA

will be of aid in arranging thu
preliminaries as to the time an(
place of the meeting.
fBut if even these preliminarie'
can be arranged directly between
the two powers, or in any othe-

as his sole purpose is to brins
about a meeting which the whol
civilized world will pray may re

SHOCKING WHEAT.
A Plan For Setting Up Shock Most
satisfactorily.


satisfactorily.
Most people are probably familiar in
a general way with the principles and
methods used in wheat shocking. Yet
there are details the conformation to
or neglect Of which makes all the diff
ference between a first class job and a
poor one / wish to show here some of
the details which make for convenience
and excellence In the work, says Ru-
raj New Yorker writer.
/ find the Following plan of setting up
shock most satisfactory: Set down
four bundles in row and follow with
one in the middle on each side. Now
place bundle in each of the four va
cant places and put on two caps. For
caps select bundles with long straw
above the bands. They will cover the
shock better and will not fan off so
easily. Place the heads Of the caps in
the direction from which the strongest
winds blow. If the heads face the
wind the caps will not blow off as
readily as they will if the butts face it.
General Suggestions.
Here are a few general suggestions:
If the shock has been set up as here di-
rected it will contain twelve bundles
Experience teaches that this is very
nearly the right number. Some little
variation, of course, is allowable. But
if a shock is much smaller it lacks sta
bility, and the same is true if the shock
is much larger, especially if the wheat
is dead ripe. When the wheat is dead
ripe the heads stand out, and, especial
~ in a large shock, the bundles are LA
BILE to fall down. If the heads stand
out it is a good plan to hug the shock
tightly before Gaping. In a large
shock slightly green wheat is apt to
mold. When starting a shock if con-
venient start it In the middle of ne
bunch of bundles. This will save the
time and labor involved in carrying
bundles around the shock.
