tion, watering and how to prevent dis
ease and vern1in.
To obtain the best results from sweet
peas they should be grown In well FER
tilized, loamy soil that has been spad-
ed or dug deep and is In an open,
sunny situation. Plant In rows or
drills to the depth of two inches. some
NAV advise you to plant deeper, but
we have tried planting at different
DEPTHS and have had better success
when planting shallow. However, In
the case of shallow planting we have
always resorted to the process OF
mulching or top fertilization. In real
ity this has the same effect as deeper
planting. but 1t will have an added
benefit in giving the plant a stimulant
for bloom production.
II too much fertilizer is used at

best kinds for the home garden in both
early and late varieties. The scotsman
is often blamed for poor results when
likely the fault rests with the mex
perienced planter.
In planting in seed bed, SOW seeds
in rows and not too thick If more
care is taken at the start in placing
the seed evenly at about a half an
inch apart the plants will have more
room to develop and will become more
sturdy before they need to be dis
turbed. Be cautious not to plant the
seeds too deep-a slight covering OF
half an inch of light loan is all that
is required.
Tomatoes do not like too much water
at the roots but the soil should never
be allowed to become wholly dried out
in the early stages of growth. The
tomato being a tender annual, care
must be taken not to let the young
plants become chilled, and we advise
the use of light canvas covering for
protection cool nights. as frequently
there is a difference of from twenty
five to thirty degrees in the temper
ature between day and night. The
canvas covering at night assists in
keeping the temperature of the bed
more nearly even.
Peppers
Peppers should be sown at this time,
also the husk tomato or ground cherry
The planting of seed and the care is
about the same as followed with the
tomato.
ParseIy
There is much more satisfaction in
planting seed of parsley in the seed
bed than in the open ground Parsley
fc clnu 70 ynrOainafa in the pnoI soil
and all the other vegetables planted
will be well along before parsley makes
its appearance. So If you give 1t "A
row in the seed bed where the small
seed can be protected you will find 1t
a saving OF time, as it is so much more
easily cared for in the small space,
and when Ii is ready for the garden
border the plants will be better OFF
for having been transplanted or ham
died and can be arranged at proper
distance apart to insure uniform and
vigorous growth
Celery
If one has a soil adapted to the grow
ing of celery, a soil of a deep, rich,
loamy nature and rather moist, and
desires to raise celery 1t is time now
to plant the seed in the seed bed Care
must be taken not to SOW seeds too
thick or not to bury them too deep.
During the early stages or growth
treat about the same as the tomatoes
in regard to watering, temperature,
cultivation, etc.
FIowering AnnuaIs
Now is the time to plant certain of
the Towering ANIMALS. II you wish
to take advantage of the seed bed do
not delay IL you wish strong, stocky
plants at planting-out time. The fol-
lowing list of ANIMALS can be planted
now: Ageratum, Candytuft, Centaurea,

in 105 days. has just returned TO New

difficulty in making the long walk In
100 days proiiting by his experiences
of this year.
In spite of the hardshipS which he
suffered. Weston Is in perfect health
and says that he will continue walk
ing but shorter distances, until he
starts on the LONG walk for San Fran
cisco. From the time Weston left
New York until he reached Oakland,
California. he was unfortunate in
meeting the most diSagreeablc kind
of weather From here TO Chicago he
had snow. ice, rain and windstorms
with which TO contend. Farther west
the heat tortured him and bad roads
impeded his progress. His best DAYS
performance was seyenty-eight miles
between Topeka and Junction City.
