Miss Henkei, though still young
woman, is the author OF a number of
scientific bulletins already issued by
the plant bureau One OF these is on
the subject OF Weeds" Another ia
on Drug Plants"--this latter subject
being one to which she has devoted
special attention. Up to the preseal
time more matter of hers has been
published by the Government than
from the pen of any other woman
Miss Margaret Huddleson is another

FARMING by the Square Inch,

This Is the story of d remarkable
solution nf the secret OF success An
farming on a small scale, chiefly for
the benefit of those who cannot ar
ford to buy large tracts OF land and
would not be able ia work them If
they could. SO writes Fl. y. Jones
In the Technical World Magazine for
July. TO pique the curiosity OF the
readea let II be first explained, In all
seriousness that II farm cultivat-
ed in this way Is leased 1t should be
understood that when the tenant
moves he is at liberty to take the
soil with him,
A1'he soil used In this method OF
farming must be Of unusual richness.
The story begins with the efforts Of
two women to gain ID livelihood from
Mother Nature. They leased five
acres Of land In Berkshire, England
Later they found that Ave acres was
too much land. and that they could
find full work for themselves and for
students who focked to them to
learn how 1t was done, with profit for
all. on piece OF ground less Than
half the sire Of that first taken
Tn teachers Of he women were a
French gardener and his family, who,
with an acre of Hand In France, sold
$500 worth OF produce in a year
The scene at the farm is taus descrb-
ed by one who visItei 1t and made
the photographs that go with the ar
ticle.
In a bare plowed field stands q
square palisade Of zine plates en-
closing about three-quarters of an
acre. Behind 1t the French gardener
and the women who lease the land
have wrought what looks like sheer
miracle to anyone unacquainted with
the system
The ground is all covered with In
yerted bell glasses of he kind known
in EuroDe as tlo RS. Under each

were growing around the bells and
other vegetables sown broadcast Yere
coming up everywhere In each Of a
number Of frames four feet square
were thirty lettuces, a mass OF car
rots and cftlinower.
The entire secret Of the growth OF
these products before the regular
season IL Ia the cropping and the
soil Every inch OF the soil bears 1T
least three crops a year. each OF them
anticipating the season and therefore
producing fancy prices
This remarkable method Of making
every inch OF land count is described
In detail by the " tier and the article
Is illustrated with very interesting

Wandering through the huge white

many women, in neat white aprons,

they are engaged in original research

a Tempest In a Teapot.

What war was caused by clay tea
pot?
For an answer to this question we
must 60, as might be supposed, to the
land Of pigtails and porcelain. The
story goes that a Chinese emperor In
olden days gave as a mark OF special
favor q magnificent clay teapot or rare
design to 10 Hung Chang, his fayorite
mandarin. This was laid up as price
less possession among the treasures OF
10 Hung or borne at bis side by two
attendants at all high public festivals
and functions. A rival mandarin saw
these signs Of distinction with the
green eyes of jealousy and hired a
man to break the obnoxious pot. The
clumsy fellow was caught in the act
and betrayed his master. War follow
ed between the two mandarins and
