HAVE YOU HAD The GRIP?

There are certain disorders, such as the
grip, that especially debilitate and make
the body an easy prey for more dangerous
diseases. Ask those who have had the
grip regarding the present condition OF
their health and most of them will answer:
"Since had the grip have never been
WELL" They still have profuse perspira-
ton, the persistent weakness OF the limbs.
the disordered digestion, shortness OF
breath and palpitation of the heart caused
by the thin-blooded condition in which
the grip almost always leaves its victim
alter the fever and influenza have SUBJ
sided. They are furthermore, at the
mercy of relapses and of complications,
often very serious. In an attack OF the
grip there is a rapid thinning OF the
blood and not until the blood is built up
again is complete health restored.
DR.. Williams Pink Pills quickly make
the blood rich and red, drive out the
lingering germs from the system and
transform Respondent grip victims into
cheerful, healthy men and women:
Try the pills for any form OF debility
caused by thin blood.

WHAT EVERY GARDEN NEEDS
=. 0. MORTON.

porhons the first essential for sue
oo.sf,, Garden is to plan 1t on paper
IN detail before starting SO as to waste
M valuable space. Thus If horse Is

garden long and narrow. If. on the
other hand, the work Is to be done by
hand the rows should be nearer togeth-
.nd tho garden may be either square
or rectangular.
provide plenty of manure; that fall
inc nse fertilizer. part applied when
blowing and part in the rows as the
n,an+s need it. Those who have no
cold frame sashes will find the little
single plant frames a great help ID
starting the melons, cucumDers, early
annual flower seeds, beans, ETC. These
cost about $3.50 for ten and come
knocked down, with the bolt holes al
bored so that it only takes a few mo
noen+s with a wrench to put them to
gether. An added advantage OF these
small frames is that insects may Dc
kent from the young plants until they
are strong enough to withstand their
attacks.
Tools and Results.
As to tools, there are re" that
are indispensable and a few more
that add to the joy of gardening. The
necessary ones include heart shaped
hoe small garden hoe, spading
fork. spade, long handled shovel, rake,
Garden reel and 100 feet Of line and
dihher The tools which make work
easv are the wheel hoe with all its &C
cessories. weeders, plows, rakes, seed
or marker and cultivators, the KNAPP
sack sprayer and large watering pot
with fine nozzle. The wheel hoe be-
comes almost human when guided by
an intelligent hand and does away
with hand hoeing entirely. A few mo-
ments spent each pleasant day in the
garden for a family OF five) Will pro
duce astonishing results.
AS rule, children are particularly
interested In growing crops and have
repeatedly proved their interest II
making gardens bloom, as, for exam
nile the government agricultural ex
periments with girls and boys ampl!
assure us. In England, of course, thu
garden becomes all absorbing from
February until November, and tn
writer recalls a little garden, 5O by lo'
feet, cared for by a man who oWne'
a small hotel. and from this productiv
plot he supplied salads, early potatoes
Strawberries, peas, beans, tomatoe
and flowers to his guests. More thal

loving care quite feature of the nc

ever it might be, which the season an

damping-of of the seedlings,

of the seedlings,
A few hours before removing plants
from the seed bed or plant bed they
should be we'll watered and the water
allowed to soak into the soil. This will
insure portion of the soil adhering to
the roots and prevent the plants from
whiting. If the plants have been pro-
perly thinned or transplanted it is often
possible to run knife or trowel between
them, thus cutting the soil i;.to cubes
that are transferred with them to the
garden.
Where the soil does not adhere to the
roots of the plants it is well to puddle
them. In the process of pudding, hole
is dug in the earth near the plant bed,
or large pail or pan may be used for
the purpose, and a thin slime, consisting
of clay, COW manure, and water, is pre-
pared. The plants are taken in small
punches and their roots thoroughly
coated with this mixture by dipping
them up and down in the puddle few
times. Pudding insures coating Of
moist earth over the entire root system
of the plant. prevents the air from
reaching the rootlets while on the way
to the garden, and aids in securing d.
rect contact between the roots and the
soil.
In parts of the country where the
sunshine is extremely hot during part
of the summer, some plan is, especially
those that are grown for salad purposes,
are benefited by shading. Shading is
often used in the care of small plants
when they are first transplanted.
Where boards are available they can
be used for protecting plants that have
been set in rows in the garden by placing
them on the south side of the row at an
angle that will cast shadow over the
plants, and holding them in place by
short stakes driven in the ground.
Laths, wooden Stats, cotton cloth, or
shaded sash are frequently used to pro-
tect plant beds from the heat of summer.
