INVESTIGATION ON
SOUTHERN FARMS
Farmer Should Have Garden for
Production of Vegetables.
NECESSARY TO HAVE HOTBED
Suitable Continuance May Be Con-
structsd cheaply by Digging Hole
Two Feet Deep and Lining In
side With Boards.
(By G. II. ALFoRD.)

Every farmer should have a good
nome garden. The sole object OF this
garden should be the production of
vegetables for family use, and thereby
materially reduce the grocery bill. If
more Is produced than is required in
the home for use in the fresh state,
and for canning, the surplus can be
easily sold to the neighbors or near
Fly grocery stores.
To properly and successfully run a
garden 1t is practically a necessity to
possess a hotbed. This may be con-
tstructed cheaply by digging a hole IS
inches or two feet deep, 6 by II feet,
dining the inside of this with boards,
and running the north side ten inches
above the ground and the south side
only four. This gives a slant towards
the south, furnishing protection from
the north. About a foot of fairly good
Morse should be allowed to
ferment and be placed in this bed,
arrangements being made to secure
drainage at the bottom. Over the
manure from four to six inches of
. good garden soil should be put, and
the bed may be covered with canvas
or glass as desired. In this the cab
bage and the tomato and the like
plants may be raised for setting in
the garden. After the heat is gone
from the bed it becomes a cold frame
and may be used at odd times for the
growing Of radishes, lettuce and other
crops which do not need bottom heat.
The garden itself should be well
plOwed early in the spring and have
al much manure as possible turned
under. Such crops as peas, cabbage,
beets, onions and other cold resistant
plants should be planted as soon as
possible. When all danger from late
frosts is over, tomatoes, peppers, egg
plant, and SO forth, can be set out;
beans, okra and all frost-tender plants
should also then be planted. For the
smaller growing types, such as tur-
nips, carrots, lettuce, spinach and like
plants the rows need not be more than
a foot or IS inches apart. For cab
bage, colIards and so forth, the rows
should be two feet apart and the
plants two feet in the rows.
Tomatoes and the larger growing
vegetables should be set from three
to four feet each way. Peas can be
planted in rows eight inches apart and
three feet allowed between each pair
of rows. The cultivation in the mar
row middle can be done with a hand
c%ultiyator. If the garden is large and
the rows put wider apart, ordinary
horse cultivator with many small
teeth may be advantageously used.
The ground should be kept well and
thoroughly mulched on top after hav-
ting been prepared deeply. The weeds
should be removed from between the
rows and plants, and where possible
q succession Of crops should be ar
ranged for, so that the garden will
furnish various and sundry vege-
tables all through the season. For
instance, a short row Of radishes
should be planted, and a week or ten
days after another short row should
be put In. Where tomato plants are
well looked after and sprayed toma-
toes may be reasonably expected from

That Next Morniao.

A friend of mine, he goes downtown
and sits up with the fellows. He
lightly lays his lucre down for reds,
whites, blues and yellows. He orders
up a lot of things and takes a nifty
nibble and on the check the, waiter
brings his name proceeds to scribble.
He smokes a twenty-cent cigar and
when the minstrels gather, in joyous
song before the bar, is he in line?
Well, rather! When menials in his
service range, to save him time and
trouble, he looks, while saying, Keep
the change" like Monte Cristo's
double. But, oh, next day you ought
to hear the words of fact and fable
with which he chases all the cheer far
from the breakfast table! 1t fills the
fiat with gloom and strife and o r
row and misgiving-the line Of talk
he gives his wife about the cost of
living!-Exchange.

Do Not Permit
Yourself to Worry
By ]. v. BERNARD, New YOrk

who always explained his good health by saying, 4 like my job Content
ment with your daily lot, satisfaction with ones regular employment, is a
great aid to dispensing worry. Of the mental causes, worry is the worst
Learn to be a master of your own moods. Do not permit yourself to drift
along like a hopeless, ~fudderess bark, tossed to and fro by every sensation
of pain and every wind of mental distress" There is a profound phloso-
pMr with a wide knowledge of human nature and the causes which set
mems affairs awry on the staff of this railroad. His directions to the
employees deserve the widest circulation, and a place over the desk Of every
man who works under a strain, and whose duties call for his undivided
attention in order to avert disaster. How many railroad accidents have
been caused because the train pilot was worried over his private affairs?
How many financial disasters have resulted from the mental attitude Of
the man who has allowed petty annoyances to distract him?
Worry iAthe result of bliousness. 1t originates usually in the liver.
1t never accomplished a desired end. AS discomfort is mistaken for ambi-
ton, so worry is mistaken for devotion to duty. 1t is a nervous derange-
ment and waste of power. The man who succeeds is the man who is not
afraid. The man who anticipates trouble is the man who always is in
trouble. If you would succeed, face the dangers and difficulties Of the
day with a clear brain and a steady eye. Do not worry.

Manners Of Woman
Of Much Importance
BY FERDINAND B. PECK. Chicago

manners. To begin with, a woman should strive to become a lady. Polite
ness is good sense. The want of good manners may be ineradicable. 1t is
a shame for women to be reprimanded on their manners, but at times it
seems necessary. Do you know to be a lady is more than to be a queen Of
the highest rank or power? A lady when in her right is certainly worthy
of all respect; to a lady king and peasant bow alike. Do not be compelled;
to not have impulses that need to be repressed or checked.
Take great care when visiting public parks. See that your etiquette
is up to the standard. Don't get careless in regard to etiquette. Don't
spoon in the public parks; it is not becoming to a lady. Don't be vulgar.
Don't Art with everything that comes along. 1t doesn't pay. In fact, a
safe rule would be never to firt. Why make your life unhappy? Why
are there Ct many suicides every day? Why so many divorcesP Is it
possible to blame the want of etiquette? Read the "donts" again; they
answer the questions, if not in all at least in the majority of cases
Surely life is to be enjoyed. To make life happy only requires that
we conform strictly to the usages and regulations of etiquette. Be moder.
ate in dress; never try to appear more than you really are; be mild and
never try to win others by any other arms than plainness, dignity and
gentleness. The r~ightthipking mas Of today will then show women more
respect and enlarge their opinion Of their ~worNiness to be called a lady
