POPULAR GARDENING

Sowing seeds too deeply is one Of the
most common mistakes of beginners
and is sufficient reason why so much
of IL fails TO come up. All small seeds,
such as carrot. cabbage, lettuce, celery,
etc, should be left within an inch of
the surface; larger seeds, such as
peas beans, corn and beets, within two
to three inches.

TO GATHER THEM In

One of the lately developed uses made
of the telephone is by clergymen who, on
Sunday mornings, call up their parishion-
ers and urge their attendance at service,
say sthe Newark Daily Advertiser" :"
At certain church recently a visiting
clergyman was to preach and the rector
was very anxious that a goodly congre-
CATION should greet him. so Sunday morn
ing he called up from his telephone
lot of people upon whom he could de-
pend and asked them to call up others
whom he did not know so WELL and let
them know that the opportunity was one
they should not miss. The result was a
congregation that crowded the church to
the doors, and the clergyman from Bos-
ton. or wherever it was, carried away
the impression of a most thriving parish,
as well as the comfortable feeling that
his able sermon had been listened to by
a goQaly crowd of people.

also stated that Senator Colby, of Essex,

there was no strong public demand in

not favor the bills as they were drafted
and he would not think of Introducing
bills which he did not favor.

disappointed
While Mr. Minturn did not say what
feature Of the bill he objected to, it is
known that he is opposed to the increase
of the license fee from $3.50 to $500 in
all municipalities having more than TO-

ed.
In making his argument before the
commistee Prosecutor Speer said that
there was no question that the automo-
bile has come to stay and is no longer
the vehicle of the rich, but has even
come to be used in commerce. There is
$50, 900, 0GO invested in New Jersey in
automobiles and the kindred industries,
and Mr.. Speer said no one would deny
that the New Jersey Legislature desires
to protect the property and capital Of its
citizens. In answer to question by
Senator Frelinghuyserl, Mr.. Speer said
that a trolley can go as fast as an au7
tomobile and he said he never heard Of
an ordinance or law requiring a motor
man to pass an examination.
Mr. speer attacked the provision Of
the law which provides for the trial Of
alleged violators Of the automobile law
before justices of the peace. He said
whether a persons speed was two miles
an hour or two hundred miles an hour,
lthe result would be the same so far as
the justice Of the peace is concerned,
otherwise he would never get another
case. The complaint against the IRE
lingsuysen bill, Mr.. speer said, is its
drastic provisions. The present law
with some amendments and the proper
enforcement. he claimed, weuld be am
ply adequate. The Frelinghuysen bill,
he said, provides an unjust discrmina-
ton against the users Of automobiles
and it would be better to cling to an
old law which has been found salts
factory than, to jump at law which
might be found Unconstitutional in adj
dition to its revolutionary provisiones.
