planting in the open ground and the
should be transplanted again, or they
plants in the bed are crowded they
will make slender growth and thus be

set the plants in boxes or baskets and
carry to the field where they are to be
planted. If this work is carefully done
the plants will not wither, but grow
right on, and a good crop of fruit
obtained. even in n far northern lati-
tude where otherwise tomato growing
is Il failure. Cabbage, likewise. will
mature earlier if the plants are treated
in this way. Having vegetables early
in the season will richly repay the little
extra labor.

is very desirable for tranSplanting.
When there is danger of frost it is
easily covered. Always grow stocky

A FEW HINTS
TO FARMERS
Ground Is Fit For Flowing And
Farmer And Suburbanite Are
GETTING Things Into Shape.

The bright springlike days of the
week just closing have filled the soul
Of the farmer and the suburbanite with
Joy. The farmer found that the ground
was dry enough to pillow, and he had his
teams out and was turning the rich
looking burrows from daylight till dark.
And those of his kind, who had done
most of their blowing in the winter
were narrowing. And the suburbanite
he OF the building lot he got out his
spade and dug in the garden until his
hack and arms ached. For these are
busy days in the country.
The man who has hotbeds has had
them going since February, and his to-
matoes and cabbage plants have been
transplanted and the lettuce is begin
ming to head up nicely. This is about
the time to set out such hardy plants as
early cabbage. Peas onions. beets and
other hardy vegetables should now be
planted, as well as such flowers as
sweet peas. pansies petunias and the
like. We must wait until later to start
the more tender flowers and vegetables.
but it is better to run some risk of frost
in order to get them in the ground early.
even if some have to be replanted; and
it is not much trouble to cover up those
in danger in case of late frost. In Bal
tmore county we may expect a killing
frost as late as May 6: that is. in the
higher sections. Along tidewater there
is little danger after Nav !.
In the flower garden there is much to
be done The rose bushes should be
uncovered. if this has not been done
al, +l,,
winter uncovered should be trimmed up.
Vines which have become straggly and
unkempt ought to be got into shape.
Flower beds should be cleaned up and
carefully rakcd. Give your flower gar
den careful attention and it will delight
You all the summer The old-faShioned
flowers are popular now. Here are a
few you can have:
Heliotrope-Evcry woman loves this
plant more for its delightful fra grance
than anything else. They are excellent
for either outdoor or house culture and
are as easily grown as verbenaS. Sow
the seed early in the spring and trans
plant to out of doors when the weather
is settled For winter blooming keep
cut back during summer. pot and move
indoors in September.
Larkspur-No other flower gives such
n variety of blue tintS as these. The
perennial sorts are very desirable for
the hardy garden OF for backgrounds
borders or isolated clumps. They never
fail to attract admiration and are eX
cellent for cutting. Sow the seed now
The annual sorts will bloom in August
and the perennials early the following
summer. Give them Il cool soil and

PAUL JONES' LAST

Home from the ships and the seven seas
And the boom of the cannonadc:
Hand III hand to the obScquieS
OF the man who was unafrad.
Walk two nations in pride today,
And well that pride they feel.

Was true as the trucSt steel.
To toss no more on the sundering tide,
To leap no more to the fray,
Bind him round with the glory flag
And Solcmnly lay away
\ sorry handful of dust, perhaps,
But thunder and shock and flame
Shall blaze the present and far and near
When the world speaks out his name.
Home from the ships, How can he lie,
That restless wrath of war,
And not the bugle'S blarc awake
And the shock of the FOUNDERS roar?
All. well. my laddies. it may not be
He sleeps as sound as that.
And ten TO one that his spirit knows
The thing that you are at.

For never Il navy of any land
Can name the names of his peers:
And the ships of the world shall honor
