Pointers for Gardeners

The gardener in the South may
we'll remember certain facts which
are summed up in the United States
Department of Agriculture's new
Farmers Bulletin (No. CAD entitled
1.-The Home Garden in the South"
They are as follows:
Cd In nearly all sections of the
South there is scarcity of fresh
vegetables during a large part of the
year.
(2) A well kept garden will yield
a return eight to ten times as great
as that from an equal area devoted
to cotton or to other general farm
crops.
CD The value of vegetables in
the diet is a great deal more than
the mere food or money value, as
they furnish large part of the es-
sential salts which are necessary to
the we'll being of the system.

(5) Good drainage is of prime
importance. If the land has not
good natural drainage, artificial

done by means of horse tools the
garden should be long and narrow,
with the rows running the long way
of the garden.
90 The garden should be laid off
in straight rows for either horse or
hand cultivation.
tS) An erea of one-fourth to
one-half acre in garden crops should
be sufficient for a family of average
size.
CD The garden should be occu.
pied as large part of the year as
possible. As soon as one crop is re.
moved, another should be planted
so as to have succession of crops
coming on all the time.

School Gardens
For The Children

1.-THE school-garden idea is not a
fad" declares DR.. c. ID. Jarvis, OF
the U. S. Bureau OF Education. ut
is an outward expression of an in
born belief on the part of hundreds
of teachers and educators through
out this and other lands that chill
dren need some kind of active ex-
perience to vitalize their school
studies. 1t is also an expression on
the part of thousands of parents of
the belief that in order to acquire
habits of industry and to appreciate
the dignity of labor, boys and girls
at an early age should be encourag
ed to engage in some kind of whole
some employment. Furthermore,
the various welfare associations, the
International Child-welfare League
in particular, are embracing the
garden movement with the belief
that through it thousands of boys
and girls may be saved from the
evils attending confinement in the
shops, the mills. and the mines.
Reason for Former Failures
In general, a verying degree of
success has followed the efforts of
individual teachers and of the var
ious organizations. Too often,
however, extensive garden projects
have been undertaken without
carefully prearran eed program,
without any provision for instruc-
tion and supervision, and without
sufficient funds to properly admin
these and other causes there have
been some failures. These failures,
however, have served to make us
formulate plans for the future de-
more cautious and have helped us to
velopment of the work.
although the school officials gem
gardening, they have been slow to
take it up as part of the school
program. They would like to see
the work standardized and definite
program substituted for the chaotic
mass OF racor mo2dations. The lack
Of well-organized examples of gar.
den activities has probably been the
retarding actor"
Survey by Bureau of Education
To satisfy the demand for some
definite Information, DR.. Jarvis
points out, the U. S. Bureau of Edu-
cation recently conducted a survey
of the school garden work through
out the country. AS a result of this
survey plan for the introduction
and promotion of garden work in
the schools has been made available
to school officials
THE plan IS a simple one. It is
an economical one. 1t does not in
any way interfere with the present
school program. 1t provides for
intelligent instruction and thorough
supervision. 1t provides for the
utilization of unused land and la
Dor for productive purposes. The
children working under this plan
may contribute to the support of
the family, teaching them the fun
damental principles of democracy
and enabling them to remain longer
in school. Under this plan also the
children are given an opportunity
for an active experience to vitalize

school studies and an opportunity
for acquiring knowledge of an oc-
cupation that may become the means
of livelihood. The plan further
provides for wholesome occupa
tion for boys and girls while out Of
school and thus stimulates industry
at the receptive age and guards
against the evils attending idleness.
An additional result of the plan in
operation is an improvement of
home surroundings-bac yards are
cleaned up and the home grounds
ornamented with shrubbery and
flower borders.
Reaches Every city School
"The plan provides for a system
of home gardening in each city
graded school. The home garden
has many advantages over the So
called school garden where large
number of children are brought to i.
gether and each given a small plot
of ground on which to plant a few
pennies worth of seeds. The child's
garden in the home back yard, when
under school supervision, will sup
ply every opportunity offered by the
school garden and will do much
more. 1t assures closer relation
ship between home and school and
promises better undertaking be-
tween parent and teacher. 1t OBJ
viates many of the troubles of the
school garden, ouch as that of steal
ing, fencing, protection, limited
funds summer vacation, insufficient
land ad others. The home garden
furthermore usually provides suffi-
cient ground to grow enough pro =.
duee to supply the home and to put
the enterprise on a commercial or
business basis. The child with a
garden embracing $500 square feet
or over is able to raise at least ten
dollars worth of produce and to OBJ
tain a fair idea of the possibilities
of gardening. Such a proposition
tends to broaden the child's vision.
"The home garden also is usually
large enough to keep the child &C.
cupied while out of school and at
an occupation that is wholesome and
under the eye of the parents. 1t pro-
vides at the same time for a closer
companionship between parent and
child and encourages the idea of mu>
tual helpfulness.
Teachers Employed for Twelve
Months
'In general the Bureaus recon-
mendation to schools regarding
home garden work is to engage in
each graded school one teacher who
is prepared by training and expert
ence to take charge of the garden
work for the whole school. Such
teacher should be engaged for 70
months and with the understanding
that she should devote the regular
number of hours to teaching the
usual school subjects, or better, all
the lementary science subjects in
several grades, and that the garden
work should be done after school
hours, on Saturdays and holidays,
and during thesummer vacation. Ar
rangements may, if desired, be made
to give a vacation to the garden
teacher during the winter

CARE OF FHE cHILD's NOSE

The physical examination of school
children shows that in many instance,
they breathe through the mouth be.
cause they cannot breathe properly
or sufficiently through the nose.
This may be due to bad habits in
regard to keeping the nose clean, or.
IN majority OF instances, to a growth
which is known as "adenoids" and
which stops up the back of the nose.
IN either case, the air is not breathed
through the nose, and the child be-
comes what is known as a mouth
Constant breathing through the
mouth causes the child to become
pale, restless in its sleep and dull in
ITS actions: The child often speaks as
though it had a cold in the head. Ere
quently there is an almost constant
discharge from the nose.
Mouth breathing renders a chilo
especially liable to contract tubercu-
iosls and other infectious diseases: in
tact, the child has very little resist.
ance to disease of any kind.
Every child should be given =

This prescription can be filled by
any druggist at cost not to exceed
fifteen cents.
A nickle's worth of precipitated
chalk will last family a month, and
is as good for brushing teeth as more
expensive tooth powders.
Tooth picks injure the gums, and
particularly in a dirty mouth, are apt
to cause serious damage. After meals
the best way to cleanse the mouth and
gums and teeth of food particles Is
to rinse vigorously, with lukewarm
water, to which fourth part of vine
gar may be added. The vinegar is par
ticularly useful when the gums have
a tendency to bleed readily. The brush
and chalk should be used in the morn
ing and before going to bed.

The mechanical information the show
visitors possess is a big aid to them

NEW YORK A. c.
WILL WITHDRAW
FROM THE A. A. j.
Big Local Club to Take Dras-
tic Action To-Day as Result
of Trouble Over Swimming
Races in Madison Square
Garden.

The New York Athletic Club intends
to withdraw its membership from the
metropolitan branch Of the A. A. U.
to-day.
This was the gist Of q statement
made by Matthew p. Halpin. Chair
man of the Athletic Committee Of the
club. last night in Madison Square
Garden when he was informed by
Jacob w. Stumpf. Chairman Of the
Registration Committee of the Metro
politan Association. A. A. u. that
the swimmers of the New York A. G.
who had refused to take part In tho
events at the Sportsmen's Show had
been suspended from further COM
petition because of their non-appesr-
ance
Halpin further stated that he had
given the Registration Committee fair
warning that IL any adverse action.
such as suspending the clubs ath-
letes. was taken. and the club dis
criminated against in behalf Of a
professional promoter, an action
would be taken which would not
argue particularly we'll for athlstss
The New York Athletic Clubs leader
stated that he was not for having his
mates put under the ban for any such
supposed breach of the rules Of the
governing body as Stumpf stated they
were guilty of, and before he would
give the Registration Committee an
opportunity to take the further action
they promised for to- night he would
attempt to clear up the whole matter
by placing them outside the pale of
the Amateur Athletic Unions juris-
diction.
In this stand, he stated, he felt that
the whole club was behind him. and
at any rate he was sure that his con-
tentions to the end promised would be
mittee.
The committee Of the Winged Foot
organization who, II they uphold Hal
pin In his announced stand, will aid
In making athletic history, consists
of Jeremiah T. Mahoney. Edward ].
Benson. Powhatan Robinson. George
r. Corbett and Fred r. Fortmeyer.
Arthur McAleenan. the incoming
Captain OF the club. II In akcord with
the proposed action Of Halpin to have
his club pull away from the union.
and stated that a similar action was
very nearly fulfilled last year when q
number Of the N. Y. A. Z. swimmers
were disciplined for competing
against the unregistered Naval
Academy team.
Tho men who came under the ban
because Of their refusal TO compete
(which was because Of the action by
the Swimming Committee Of the
club) include the organizations star
performers In the aquatic line
namely. J. r. Wheatley. James A.
Reilly A. Z. Downes Nicholaa Nerich
w. Zimnock and George South.
These men had entered the series Al
individuals and not according to tho
club rule, which warrants all entries
being made through the club captain.
When II is known that the New
York Athletic Club was ono OF the
prime movers for the formation OF
the Amateur Athletic Union q quarter
OF century ago. and ona ~ y:
stauncnest adherents, the Importance
OF the intended dissociation OF the
two bodies can be appreciated. and
It's harmful influence on general
sports seems sure to be felt.
