ONIONS LIKE COOL WEATHER
Plant VIII stand Much Heat After
Making Good Start-Wlll Not Keep
Unless Properly RIpened.

Onions grow best in relatively COO
weather and require an abundance Of
moisture during the early stages Of
growth. However, they will stand con
siderable heat after they have made
a good start, and ripen better II the
weather is relatively dry at the time
they mature.
This makes them an important croI
in central and northern ATTITUDES
where the weather of spring is COO
and moist, and dry period normally
occurs in August or In early Septem
Der. However, the season must be
sufficiently long for the onions to ma
ture before the autumn rains set in
or they are likely never to ripen prop
erly.
Unless properly ripened, onions will
not keep. For northern localities Il
Is sometimes necessary to use only
the earlier maturing varieties.
The above statements refer to the
growing of ripe onions. Green onions
reach edible size In a comparatively
short time, and can be grown during
the normally cool and moist weather
Of early spring in central and north
ern ATTITUDES. AS a commercial crop
they are Of minor importance com
pared with ripe onions.

40 per cent of lime, and about two per

The marked effect that wood ashes
has on almost all plants of the legu-
minous family seems to indicate that
the lime in the ashes has more infiu-
ence in making the ashes valuable as
fertilizer than the potash does.
Last year our fertilizer dealer put in

cent of potash at the same price as
what was buying, which was q Is

The plan of this bungalow shows
that the living room and dining room

rooms really make one large room, 13
feet in width by 81 feet in depth. It

Such a combination living room and

be appreciated because there are so
many large living rooms in the newer
houses.
Especial attention Is given to the
woodwork and general finish OF the
kitchen. The work Of lathing and
plastering is carefully done. and the
woodwork Is hard and smooth, and
the whole surface OF the walls and

WIFE OF OHIO SENATOR

Mrs. Warren G. Harding, wife OF
the new senator-elect from Ohio, will
be a welcome addition to social cir
cles in Washington. Her husband has
been prominent in public life for 16
years, and Mrs. Harding has always
been leader in society in their home
state. She is q true gentlewoman,
educated, cultured and gracious. and
a charming conversationalist. Mrs.
Harding was Miss Florence M. King,
daughter Of the late Amos H. King,
who at the time of his death was the
wealthiest resident of Marion county,
Ohio.
The Hardings we're married in
1891, and they live In a pretty home
on Mt. Vernon avenue, in Marion. 1t
is just a lovely, homelike home. Its
furnishings are rich and tasteful, but
there is no sign of gaudipess any
where. Many little things have been
picked up in Europe and are used as
decorations In Mr.. Harding's den.
Books are everywhere to be found-in
the library and out of the library. N

Neat, attractive, five-room bunga-
lows are In great demand in towns,
villages, and in the outskirts OF large
cities.
American ingenuity has met all diff
fculties and adjusted this type of
building to the satisfaction Of build
ers and owners and the public in gen.
eral, with the exception only of covet.
GUS neighbors who are not fortunate
enough to own bungalows.
The perspective and floor plan here
with illustrated shows a bungalow
type of residence intended for a COM
paratiyely narrow lot that has consid-
cradle depth.
The general arrangement is to place
the house about twenty feet back from
the street to look we'll on the lot.
The depth of the house Is Al feet
inches, which brings the rear of the
building about sixty feet from the
street line.
A bungalow setting requires consid-
cradle garden at the back. and a neat.
ly-kept grass plot in front to carry out
the idea of coy home comfort A
pretty house needs beautiful flowers
and handsome shrubbery to complete
the picture.

count Of the pergola extension and

Over the front door Is a wide entrance

The floor of the porch, including the
pergola end, is of concrete with q wa,
terproof finish. It is made level across
the front Of the house, but is given
slope outward for drainage. This 10
especially necessary because Of the
unprotscting character of the pergola.
1t viii be noticed that the approach
to this little bungalow Is made extra
wide. The fashion OF building wide
front steps and correspondingly wide
concrete walk reaching to the street
has been noticeable during recent
years. One man after surveying his
new bungalow porch remarked that
the steps must have been stolen from
some schoolhouse. At the same time,
after thinking the matter over, he de-
cided that schoolhouse steps are neces-
sary to carry out the bungalow-expan-
sive idea. Wide front steps seem to
require rampant step borders, which
are useful as seats, besides giving the
necessary finish to the house porch.
In using this bungalow plan the con-
tour OF the lot was taken into con-
sideration. The most attractive bun.
galows have rather low appearance
in front A winter bungalow requires
cellar to be deep and well lighted.
1t is better to have lot slope away
to the back, because 1t permits the
owner to bury his house in front and
to have considerable exposure at the
back.
Bungalow cellars are used a good
deal for storage purposes, Access
series must be taken care Of For
this reason cellar basement becomes
more important than the cellar under
a two-story house. When the lot
slopes away to the back II is easy to
make an excellent storeroom under
the front part OF the house and to
finish the rear Of the basement In such
way as to partition of a splendid
laundry and furnace room that is en-.
tirely separate from the storeroom de-
partment.
Every house built In the North
should have a heating apparatus in
the basement. Furnaces spoil eel.
lar for cold storage unless 1t is par.
titioned into rooms. 1t is customary
to put larger and deeper windows in
the back wall, for these reasons. A
laundry room at the back makes a
comfortable work room both in winter
and in summer. 1t is never hot and II
10 never cold. It is easy of access by

SQUASH INJURED BY BoRERs
Whole Patches Of Vegetable May Be
Destroyed by insect In Few Days
A-Plan of One Farmer.

Some years the Hubbard squash
vine is badly injured by the squash
borer. The moth lays her eggs on
the outside of the vine, and in a few
days the eggs hatch into small grubs.
These Immediately bore their way
into the stalk where they live un.
seen and for . time unsupported.
For while the vines grow well;
then. as the borer continues feeding
on the inside Of the stalk, the vine
withers and dies. Whole patches Of
squash may be destroyed by these
borers In few days.
In 1914 one farmer made tests Of
early and late planting. The early
paintings were begun in April and
continued into May. Sweet corn was
used as q companion crop, with the
early paintings to furnish shade for
the squash vines, but every vine ex-
cept one was destroyed by the borers
in all the early paintings.
He made late paintings of seed
from June to July 20, which was
the last planting of the season. In

Notwithstanding the drawbacks Of
late planting and dry season, this
crop of Hubbards was among the best
he had ever raised. Hardly a vine
was attacked by the borers. The
period OF squash-moth flying was over
before the plants were above ground.

SIR JOHN FRENCH'S FRIEND

(By A. J. LEGo.l

(By A. J. Lego
There is an impression among the
farmers generally that fertilizer
should be especially rich in potash.
One cause OF this is no doubt from
the marked effects that wood ashes
have on most soils.
A liberal application of wood ashes
shows an improvement in crop produc-
ton on almost any soil. This is usually
attributed to the potash contained in
the ashes.
An analysis Of the ashes usually
shows from four to five times as much
lime as potash in the ashes,
