A YOUNG GIRLS THOUGHTS

In the March Woman's Home Com
p%anion, Ida NJ. Tarbell writes a high
ly entertaining and suggestive article
entitled "A Young Girls Thoughts"
in which she says that it is highly
probable that kind parents do not
know what is in their daughters
mind. Following is an extract:
There is the Vale of Secrecy,
where the grown-ups move but never
admit her-whispering sometimes in
her presence things she cannot un-
d~erstand, but which, she senses, con-
Germ her. These things she feels she
must know. The impression they
make on her is that, though they
themselves walk in this Vale, they
still think it somehow wrong-'bad.'
And there are moments when she
weeps because these guardians and
friends are smirched in her eyes by
their concealments and winnings.
She hates them at moments-they
who talk so much of goodness and
doing right Why, why are they not
fair with her? Nothing is bad to
her-nothing but concealment and ly-
ing. iAdI 10 Tie way she 10 maui.
But she will know; and she finds out,
and builds up strange, distorted i'm
ages of things-unclean, false no.
tions. A few years later when she is in
the high school the grown-ups will
attempt to teach her something of the
Vale of Secrecy. 1t is too late. She
knows a score of things they have for
gotten, for they are old and she is
young. She senses that the fame
gone out of them is alive in her.
Moreover. they shock her by the late
ness and the indirectness, and the
humorless solemnity of their teach
ingS."

CONSTRUCTION OF HoT.nEps.

The situation of the hot-bed is of

A New Jersey Experiment Station
authority gives the following direc-
lions to cover the construction of the
hot-bed: The width of the bed will be
determined by the length of the sash.
Sash 3 TT. wide and 6 fit. long are gen.
orally used. The number of sash
needed determines the length of the
bed. Commercial growers seldom use
more than Is sash per frame. A pit
is dug east and west 2 #. deep, al
most Z #. wide and a foot longer than
an even number of sash will reach.

EARLY SPINACH.

Few people realize how easy it is
to get spinach early in the spring
when it is much desired. 1t is a COM
mon practice to pillow the ground very
early in the spring and then plant
spinach seed in this loose soil.
The Market Garden Specialist at
the N. j. Experiment Station declares
that spinach should be sown broad
cast on frozen ground in February
and Immediately covered to the depth
of n inch with well rotted stable ma
nure Sow about one pound of seed
to one thousand square feet of ground.
Thick Leaf is the best variety for
this purpose. Spinach sown in this
vay will grow larger and heavier
han spring-sown spinach and will ma
ture ten days earlier than that plant
ed at the regular time. 1t is well to
make successive sowings in the spring
for later maturity.
Spinach likes a rich, well-drained
soil. The ground should be sweet and
quite hard for best results. TOP
dress every ten days with nitrate of
soda, five pounds to every thousand
square feet. being careful not to let
the nitrate lodge on the large spinach
leaves, or they will have white spots
burned in them.

NOT TO INTERFERE WITH
LABOR DEPARTMENT..
In Every Other Respect, Original
Economy and Efficiency Plan
to be Carried Out.

Trenton, Feb. II, 1915.@Because
of the reported statement that moth
ing would be done by the present
Legislature to interfere with the adj
ministration of labor affairs of the
State under the direction of Col. Lew
is 7. Bryant, the Democratic news
papers have become hysterical in their
frantic attempts to create the opinion
that the Republican plan for econ
omy and efficiency has failed.
This is not more than was to be ex-
pected from the Democratic press,
spurred or by the Democratic leaders
who failed last session, not only to
pass the economy and efficiency laws
as pledged in their platform, but
failed ven to introduce any bills that
could be interpreted as an attempt to
keep faith with the people.
Having Numbered and foundered
around so pitifully in trying to solve
the economy and efficiency problem
it would be a bitter dose indeed for the
Democratic Party to have the Repub-
lican administration succeed where it
had failed so ~miserably, therefore it

luck that those who read may be in
fuenced by such misrepresentation.
However. with its 1914 record of I'M
kept promises and unfulfilled pledges,
the Democratic Party, that has so
often betrayed the people of the
State, cannot hope to have its u%tteran-
ces accepted with credence at this
time, when the Republican majority
is making an earnest and what will
be a successful effort to rescue the
State from the dire condition into
which it has been thrown by the in
competency of Democratic officials.
1t is true that the present labor
administration for the State is not to
be interfered with. At the public
hearings held before the Senate COM
mittee, representatives of organized
labor, manufacturers and men of ev-
cry political faith from all parts of
the State have appeared and reques-
ted that there be no change in the
