BIG REWARD FOR INVENTIONS
British Government Is Encouraging
Ideas Tending to Improve pevel-
opment of Army Equipment.

That there are handsome rewards
for those who are able to devise i'm
provements in guns and machinery is
shown in sums that have been paid in
fees to inventors at army ordnance
factories for the year ending March,
1914. No less than $4,000. for In
stance, was paid to Col. C. l.. Holden,
late superintendent of the royal gun
and carriage factories, for various in
ventions and improvements connected
with ordnance mountings, machine
tools. etc, in addition to $500 paid on
another account; while G2,S50 was
paid to Mr.. w. I, Thomson, chemist
and manage, at different times. OF the
Royal Gunpowder factory, for improve
ments in the manufacture Of nitro
cellulose and accompanying apparatus,
in addition to previous 6 1850.
Smaller amounts. such as $3.50 to

Russia Recomes Tenperate.

The prohibition of selling brandy
In the government monopoly shops
was introduced throughout the Rus
sian empire from the beginning OF
the war, on the day Of mobilization,
and has now been in force for more
than eight months. One Of the Rus
sian papers has made inquiries con-
corning the results OF this measure.
and has published some OF the statis-
teal data that was collected. The
following list shows the consump-
ton Of vodka in the city of Moscow
In 1914 compared with the preceding
year: July, e126s6 gallons in 1918
and 359.124 gallons in 1914; August,
667,926 gallons in 1918 and 23pa73 gal
Ions In 1914: October, 707,6sS Gallons
in 1913 and 2.913 gallons In 1914. Dur
ing the first three months vodka could
be obtained at the first-class restau-
rants for consumption in the same,
the selling Of vodka in bottles being
prohibited under heavy fine.

STARTING FLOWER SEEDS
BY BESSIE L. PUTNAM.

Almost all flower seeds terminate
more quickly If soaked in warm water
for few hours before planting. In
some instances this is almost a neces-
sity.
The advantage of treating sweet
peas this way is most marked.
Cypress vines will stand quite warm
water poured over the seeds IL 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
The sowing of fern spores on a
brick, covered with just sprinkling
of earth, is an interesting study to the
nature lover, the necessary water be-
ing supplied by keeping the brick III a

gether. Wait two or three weeks be-
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. If 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 it about the base of the plants
after the soil is stirred, and let the
rain drive it to the roots.
When digging for permanent beds,
see that the soil is stirred and thor
oughly aerated by digging deep, and
by spilling or throwing the soil from
the spade in a thin stream-thus sep
arating it as much as 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 to 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 if insects or fungi have
done any damage. Be sure to burn
the wrappings if 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 off
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 If tender seeds and
indoor-grown plants were not set out
too soon. AS a good general rule,
which obtains throughout the county,
such plants should not be set out or
aeeds sown until complaining time.
Hardy perennials and ANIMALS may
be sown this month or even earlier if
the soil is in proper working order
! If you nave dry, bare spot that

must be pinched out occasionally to
get the best results.
All summer tender bulbs make a
fine show and are appropriately plant
ed in clumps among shrubbery where
there are open spaces. This is espe-
cially true of young shrubbery which
has not filed out its allotted space.
Start cosmos as early as possible,
and the end of April plant in the open
two to four feet apart, for they need
plenty Of room. They want light, rich
soil, and can stand great deal OF
pinching back to keep them stocky.
If you desire dense shade, plant
