STARTING FLOWER SEEDS
By BESSIE [. PUTNAM.

Almost all flower seeds terminate
more quickly II soaked In warm water
for few hours before planting. In
some instances this fs almost o neces-
sity.
The advantage Of treating sweet
peas this way Is most marked.
Cypress vines will stand quite warm
water poured over the seeds ~ hours
before planting.
Gamma seeds and those of the other
large. hard-shelled sorts, sometimes
require careful filing to break the
tough. outer cover but extreme care
must be taken not to injure the germ.
The finer greenhouse seeds should
be merely sprinkled on the surface Of
very fine soil and kept continually
moist During termination glass
should be kept over the pots. After
the plants have come this should be
removed to admit air.

AvIator., safety Paraehutes.

The energies Of practically all the
inventors Of parachutes for airmen
have been directed towards the devel-
opment Of device for the airman
alone, the aeroplane itself being al.
lowed to drop to earth unhindered.
Parachutes for the whole aeroplane
have just been designed by q French
inventor. Two folded parachutes, con-
tanned in cone-shaped receptacles, are
attached to the wings a. near the ends
as possible. BY means Of Z simple
mechanism, operated by the movement
Of small hand lever. these para
chutes are pushed out of the contain.
ers, after which they are claimed to
open freely. no matter in what man
ner the aeroplane may be falling. All
the airman has to do IL to hang ON to
the aeroplane.

COULD BUILD SIX CANALS.

An unusual sight and one not with
out special significance was that Of
Secretary Of State Bryan signing the
cards Of $4,000 men who had taken
the pledge Of total abstinence at one
OF the Billy Sunday meetings, after
ME-. Bryan's address against the drink
curse. His attack against the liquor
evil from the economic standpoint In
cluded the following statements:
1T is estimated that the people Of
tho United States spend almost ST.
60O.oo0.0o0 annually on intoxicating
liquors.. The cost of the Panama
canal, the most gigantic engineering
feat In history. was about $500. 000. 900.
II 1t not appalling to think that we
spend for drink every year something
like six times the cost of the Panama
canal?
Il have endeavored to obtain an &C
curate estimate Of the amount OF
money spent on education in this
country. and the figure given me is
$3.50, 000.0 900. We spend for drink more
than three times as much as we spend
for education.
The annual appropriations of the
federal government are q little less
than sl.250. 100000. This sum includes
the salaries of all the public officials.

government agencies employed in ad-
ministering the federal government
Of this great nation are operated at

tween planting, thus insuring sue
cession Of blooming periods.
As the frost leaves the soil. dig
in the manure mulch placed last fall
about the shrubs, roses and hardy
perennials. II there be no winter
mulch about such plants, be sure to
apply some sort Of fertilizer to them.
In the absence Of well-rotted ma
nure apply good coat Of bone meal.
Scatter 1t about the base Of the plants
after the soil II stirred. and let the
rain drive It to the roots
When digging for permanent beds,
see that the soil IL stirred and thor
oughly aerated by digging deep. and
by splitting or throwing the soil from
the spade in a thin stream-thus sep
arating it as much Ms possible.
Dig a strip fifteen or eighteen
inches wide across the bed or border
and then rake It, beginning at the
bottom of the trench and filming the
soil from the subsoil t. the top. Con-
tinue this throughout the length Of
the bed, and then you will have
worked the soil perfectly.
When unwrapping and uncovering
trees, bushes and plants which have
had winter protection, examine care
FULLY to see IL insects or fungi have
\ done any damage. Be sure to burn
%he wrappings IL any traces Of pests
are found, and apply such remedies
as may be needed to rout the enemy.
Seedlings grown In the house. hot
beds or coldframes need harden OF
before planting in the open. Give
them plenty Of air, and during this
month only lower the sashes at night
and when the weather is cold and
stormy.
Much trouble and disappointment
would be avoided II tender seeds and
indoor-grown plants were not set out
too soon. AS q good general rule,
which obtains throughout the country,
such plants should not be set out or
seeds sown until complaining time.
Hardy perennials and ANNALS may
be sown this month or even earlier II
