soil that has been given frequent cul-
tivation you can begin to pull the
largest of the green onions for the
table; by that time you can start to
fill in the space with head lettuce
started in the seed bed. If you have
not made use of a seed bed, and II
leaf lettuce is desired, you will find
plan that we have long followed to
be of use to you. Mix, before sowing,
an equal portion of lettuce seed with
the early carrot seed.
The two seeds are similar in size and
can be planted the same depth. 1t
is a common fault to plant either Of
these fine seeds too thick, so by planting
the two mixed one oVeTC ONES that
trouble, because the lettuce will have
reached an eatable size and have been
pulled out before the carrot is half ma
tured. 1t must be remembered that
good results cannot be obtained with
either carrots or lettuce If they are
crowded and no chance given for cul-
tivatlon. One-half ounce of either let
tuce or carrot seed will pant IS feet
of row.
One pound of onion sets will plant
about 70 feet of row. Plant at least
two rows. If the onions are old be-
fore you have finished them, leave them
I'm the ground. They make excellent
dry onions later as they ripen Off
Turnips are easily grown and will
succeed in any good garden soil. As
rule the average amateur plants these
seeds too thick, but while this is no
detrlment to the plant In the early
stages of it's growth, yet If you wish
this vegetable early and have 1t free
from woodiness and bitterness 1t must
be grown quickly and not crowded in
the row. So thin out the plants early
as soon as they have made four or five
leaves, leaving only about four or six
inches between the rema 'nio" plants.
Beets should be planted now If one
would get an early supply. 1t requires
double the time to bring the beet root
to an eatable size than II does any OF
the Others ore ounce of beet seed will
pant so feet of row.

ley, cabbage, caulifower, pepper, kohl
rabi, tomato and onion. Allowing a
space of ground not more than three
feet wide and six feet long for the
seed bed, We can plant the nine Vari-
ties of vegetables III one half the space
named, and have the remainder of the
ground for flower seed or for later
vegetable paintings.
Select a place i'm the garden where
it viii receive the full sunlight the
greater part of the day. A corner is
best for several reasons. Form a
frame with the use of two pieces of
Ike lumber, six feet long, and two
pieces Ike lumber three feet long.
When nailed together, like an ordinary
door-frame, lay it upon the g o nd
where the seed bed is to be made, mark
the ground on the outer side of the
frame, and then lay it aside until the
bed is completed. Dig out the earth
inside the markings to the depth of
eighteen inches or two feet, and into
the bottom of the pit dug place at least
six inches of coarse gravel, broken
pieces of brick, cinders or anything

home garden, we have used the seed bed.
Many people think the seed bed neces-
sary only to seedsmen or market gar
deners; but many of the small home
gardens find the seed bed a necessary
adjunct. We have started many a
home garden by making and planting
a seed bed and it became Indispensable
afterwards
We meet a great many people who
are giving a little time each day to the
home garden-a half hour or an hour
each morning before going to the office
These men tell us they have no time
to give to a seed bed. But consider
what seed bed means as a saving
of time later. In a seed bed, you can
care for a given number of plants in
q small space. They can be easily cul-
tivated in a very short time and all
the water necessary given them in
few moments.
At this time of the year. we pant
in the seed bed both the leaf and the
head varities of lettuce. endive, pars-

vine which will prove detrimental to
the plant We have secured our best
results by planting seed in an aver
age soil; when the plants are two or
three inches above the ground we draw
the soil up to the plants on either side
and then mulch with a well rotted
manure or give a top dressing of
good commercial fertilizer. In this
way the roots will receive nourish-
ment only at intervals-during rains
or during cultivation, and so avoid
the rank growth of vine that Is not
desired.
There are really three classes of peas
the early. or dwarf; the medium, or
second early or half tall, and the late,
OF tall. If you would have succession
of crops, do not delay the planting of
the medium and late variety. 1t takes
longer to mature the half tall or medi-
um early than it does the earliest va
riety and still longer to bring on the
crop of late or tall varieties. So 1t Is
possible to plant all three varieties
at the same time and yet have them
mature at different intervals. One
POUND of seed will plant fifty feet of
row. If you do not have sufficient
ground to plant three kinds, 1t Is best
to plant the earliest. The dwarf vari-
cites take less space in the garden, need
no supports, and give almost as much
return as the taller varieties.
AS a rule peas are sown too thickly
with the result that plants choke each
other and are likely to midew owing
to their inability to get a free circula-
tion of air.
Almost all kinds of seeds are sown
too thickly. 1t is rather difficult to
plant the small seeds as sparsely as
need be. but the large seeds like the
pea, bean or beet furnish no excuse for
sowing them too thickly. 1t takes a
little longer to plant at regular inter
vals but II pays to give the extra time.
besides sparing the work later in thin
ring out the small plants.

Vegetables like the turnip, carrot.
parsnip and beet must not be crowd
ed; they will need thinning out after
they have made three or four leaves,
leaving the strongest and best plants
from six to seven. inches apart None
of these vegetables can be successfully
transplanted as 1t Injuries the main
root We usually thin out only a part
of the beet plants, allowing the tops
to make a growth of six or eight
inches and then thin out again to the
required distance between plants. The
plants pulled out at this time give an
excellent green for the table, almost
equal to spinach in flavor and rich
ness. For early use select seed of
varieties like the Egyptian, the Eclipse
and the Bassanio.
Peas delight in a rich loamy soil
that is we'll drained, but a good crop
of peas can be grown in ordinary gar
den land. Avoid making the soil too
rich at time of planting seed; if too
rich and the rains come on the mois-
ture will encourage a rank growth of
Los Angeles herald., 1909-12-19

that will insure perfect drainage. This
point is most essential. over the ma
terial used for the foundation place a
part of the earth and tread down
firmly. If the balance of the earth re-
moved from the pit is not rich and
friable it should be made so by the use
of well rotted stable manure.
If the soil does not contain too much
clay and is free from sickness, one
can make use of sheep manure by mix
ing it thoroughly with the best part
of the remaining soil. Fill up the pit
with the prepared soil and make 1t as
firm as possible, and smooth with the
use of the feet or with a heavy piece
of timber

The state capitol is located at Bis
marck, and the city is naturally po-
litical as we'll as business center.
Fort Lincoln is located one mile
south and the state penitentiary is
situated two miles east of the city.
Bismarck boasts one of the very
best water supply systems in the
state. and the water, which is pumped
from the Missouri river, is the purest
and best in the world.
A $4,000 sewer system makes the
sanitary condition of the city the very
best.
Electric light and telephone sys-
TENS have long been in operation
here and are among the. best in the
state. .. -.

commodate the school children, and a
large force of competent teachers is
employed.
The opportunity for religious devo-
ton in this city is fully adequate-the
Catholics Episcopalians, Presbyter-
ians, Baptists and Methodists having
large ediflces here.
The various fraternal orders are
exceptionally strong in Bismarck.
A government weather bureau is
maintained here, as is also U. S.
land Office.
Trading visitors in Bismarck will
find no lack of facilities, for every
branch of business is remarkably we'll
represented. There are two depart
ment stores: carrying stocks, which
would do credit to cities double and
treble the population of Bismarck. The
majority of the stores are particularly
striking for the modern excellence of
goods-the metropolitan city air is ev-
erywhere apparent. Bismarck mer-
chants have kept pace with the great
or possibilities and today are using
every advantage tending toward bus
mess growth and expansion.
In the Heart Of Rich Country.
Lying as she does in the heart of
rich agricultural section, Bismarck
is naturally dependent upon the broad
ana fertile prairie. Legitimate, con-
sentative advertising has induced
homeseekers of the most desirable
element, recognizing In Burlefgh coun-
ty an ideal home, to flock here by the
hundreds. There is no land boom, no
unwarranted increase in prices. Real
estate values have risen slowly, as a
result of the steadily increasing pop
ulation. BY no other influence has the
real worth of the soil been better, es-

tablished than by the fact that old
timers in the country are broadening
their holdings at prices which a few
years ago would have been consider
ed exorbitant. The ambition of every
Burleigh county farmer is to acquire
more of the soil which experience has
taught him is marvelously fertile. The
people of Burleigh county not only be-
lieve in the soil, but they believe in
themselves.
The townships along the Northern
Pacific railroad to- the east of the
city are steadily filing with good
class of settlers-men Of experience
and financial standing-while both
north and south the land is rapidly be-
ing occupied. The surrounding coun-
try is thus being placed on substan-
tial basis, and it's prosperity and de-
velopment cannot fail to have a fav-
orable influence upon the city.
. The rapid settlement in the coun-
ties north, south, east and west Of
Bismarck makes imperative a con-
venient source of supply from whence
the local implement dealers and other
business men can replenish their
stocks. TIL rancher, whose cattle
formerly roamed at will over half q
township, is being hard pushed by the
farmer who tills the quarter section.
Within the past few years thousands
Of settlers have entered the territory
tributary to Bismarck's wholesale
houses, and these constitute only
about half Of the actual settlers who
have located here during that period.
From Bismarck, thus, will be salts
fed the great and increasing demand
for machinery and other commodities

INSTANT RELIEF FROM
 DREAD CAIARRH

Why don't you get rid of that nasty, humiliating disease catarrh.
 You can do it if you realliy want to.
 But you can't cure catarrh in a few days that's an utter impossibility, be- cause there is no remedy known that will kill the catarrh germs in that short time.
 But you can cure catarrh if you will have a little patience and breathe in Hyomei (pronounced H1gh-o-me) three or four times a day.
 Hyomei cures catarrh by killing the germs and it kills the germs because 1t gets where the germs are.
 Hyomei is powerful antiseptic and germ killing air; it is made from the fluid extracted from the eucalyptus trees of Australia where catarrh is unknown
 It gives relief instantly. stops hawk ing in a few days and is guaranteed by The Lee & Osgood Co. to cure catarrh, asthma, crouD and bronchitis or money back. A complete outfit, in- cluding inhaler, costs s1.00, and extra bottles of Hyomei costs 50 cents.
 "Hyomei certainly saved my life and I accord it the credit which it deserves and merits. There is nothing too strong for me to say regarding Hyo- mei"-Mrs. Ada Hopkins, s Cutter Ave, Coldwater. Mich., August 22, 1908.

In an entirely unexpected and high ly pleasant manner Mrs. Allen c. Mat thews was surprised at her pleasant home off 42S Boswell avenue Monday evening by a merry party of eighteen members of the Girls Friendly society of St. Andrews parish, of which she is an esteemed member. Shortly before o'clock the party arrived, and Mrs. Matthews, although taken unawares, was able to entertain them in most hospitable fashion. The hours of the evening were enjoyably passed with short musical programme which in cluded piano solos by Misses Elizabeth Smith. Lucia Matthews and Florence Candish, followed by whist. Refresh ing dainties were served by the hostess. The society left with Mrs. Matthews as a token of remembrance hand some silver ladle, Mrs. F. Johns Bo- hanap making the presentation in well chosen words.
 The Girls Friendly society was in- creased last Sunday by the addition of three new members. Miss Lucia Mat thews, Miss Florence Candish and Miss Mary Willacy. The society is made up for the most part of the young people of St. Andrews parish and is a pros porous and useful organization.
