AFTER CHARITY BALL

From the Virginia Enterprise:
The Duluth Labor World,
which has a faculty of telling
the truth and sllaming the devil,

the recent charity ball in that
city. 1t says the ball, was g.
mOckery and that sensible char
liable people would do we'll to
taboo such affairs in the future.
Truly "charity covereth a null

SPRING WORK IN THE GARDEN
Early Vegetables May Be Grown Be.
tween Rows Of Tomato Plants
Long Before Latter Are Up.

Much of the space in the garden
may be double cropped where the soil
is kept free from weeds and hand hoe
ing is thoroughly done To illustrate:
Sow row of onion seeds and. about
two or three inches distant, a row Of
sets, or buttons of the evergreen onion.
These will grow and be eaten before
the black seed fairly starts growth. Or
row of onion sets and a row of let
tuce, or radish, together row OF
parsnip, or carrot, and a row of sets.
or lettuce, or radish One will mature
and be used before the other, and both
are hoed and hand weeded at once as
readily as if alone. A row OF sweet
peas may have early vegetables along
side it to advantage. Early vegetables
may be grown between rows of tomato
plants, melons OR cucumbers, and
used, or marketed, long before their
comrades occupy the ground
Hubbard squash and pie pumpkins
planted among early potatoes set and
mature their fruit after the potatoes
ripen and their tops die down. Ground
sown to early peas may be set to late
cabbage Or sown to winter radish or
turnips after the peas mature and are
removed. This late working the soil
kills hosts of weeds and prevents them
maturing seed after August l. the
time when garden weeds usually ma
ture seeds.

Farm MachinerX

Numerous Investigations upon this
farm machinery question have brought
out that the life of farm machinery de-
ponds a great deal on the owner The
same Identical machine or implement
will last twice as long with one man
as it does with another The difference
in duration is in favor of the ma
chinery that is housed. All leather
belts and canvas parts should be Ia
ken from the machine and stored in
dry place and in a place free from
rats and mice. A few of these rodents
can do great amount of damage in
very short time Figure the cost of
your machine and the per cent. it
earns on the investment and see if you
cannot afford to shelter it well. The
years that will be added to the life of
1t will Offset the first cost many times
over
