lished they can be transplanted to
small pots or boxes filed with a rich
fibrous loan. and hardened by eX-
posing them in a glass covered frame
outdoors When the weather permits
they should be set out in a rich, we'll
prepared loan. Set them in rows a
foot apart, six or eight inches apart

of soda will hasten the growth and
increase the size of the plants. The
soil should be kept loose to conserve

If preferred the seed can be plant
ed in the open as soon as the weather
permits. Sow sparingly, about half
an inch deep, in drills, covering light

thinned out early if they come up too
thickly. They should be given room
to form little heads.
From early spring to late fall sue

supply obtained the whole season.
After the plants are est" Slished they

Published in the Litco6eld News Led
ger, says:
What with prominent speakers in
America representing Japan as practi-
cally Christian, withdrawing her
black immortality, ignoring her
licensed vics and her growing liquor
problem, landing her to the skies and
placing ner upon pedestal in some
respects higher than Christian Ameri-
ca; the San Francisco school problem
and It's resultant effects upon Us and
the aforementioned problems con-
nected with the new church. 1t seems
to me no nation, and no band of mis-
sionaries ever needed the prayers of
Gods people more than we do Just
now
The San Francisco trouble has had
one good effect at least. It has cured q
good many of Japanitis.
