BLAME MOTHERS
Say Parents Neglect Primary Health
Rules.

That many school children are be.
ing allowed to become chronically con.
stipated through parents oversight, is
startling fact, brought to light by
recent investigation by school authori
ties. Hastily snatched meals so that
there will be more time to play, the
use of ready-to-eat cereals, and the
general neglect Of the call Of nature
are given as principal causes.
1t Is the duty of mothers to see that
children attend to the call of nature
before going to school, and that chill

COULDN'T BREAK UP SYSTEM
johnson Preferred to Get Wet Rather
Than Disturb the Routine He
Had Established.

johnson is a great believer in sys-
TEN. He eats system, breathes sys-
item, thinks system, talks system and
sleeps systematically. His rule of liv-
ing is as exact and unyielding as the
rule of three. On the first tap of the
atwelve O'Clock bell he rises from his
desk, on the second tap he closes the
lid. on the third he is donning his over
coat and hat. and the twelfth stroke
finds him on the sidewalk proceeding
lunchward.
The other day friend observed him
walking toward home in hard rain
from which he was entirely unprotect-
ed by raincoat or umbrella.
Hey. Johnson!" cried the friend,
haven't you any umbrella?"
''Yes. two of them." was the reply.
"Why in thunder don't you use one
of them, then?"
well. you see, it's this way: I've
made it rule to keep one umbrella al
| the Office and one at home, SO that
I'd be sure always to have one al
either end of the line when it rains

Office to my home. they'd both be al

POINTS IN PoTTING PLANTS
ey EVA RYMAN-oAILLARD.


Plants grown for beauty of their
foliage should be given rather large
pots, holding plenty of rich soil, while
hose grown for blossoms should be in
smaller ones.
Root-bound plants seem to produce
more and finer blossoms, but this
should not be construed to mean keep
ing them so tightly root-bound that
hey starve to death.
When the pot is full of roots shift
The plant to one an inch or two larger,
and fill the space with good soil.
Never fill pot so full of soil that
he water runs off the top instead Of
settling into the soil. Leave a space
Tacant in the top of the pot, an inch or
more, according to the size of the pot
md the amount of water needed by
he plant.
For plants having hard, woody
stems, the soil may be level ON the
surface. and no harm is done as the
water standing around the stem will
1ot injure it, but for soft, crown-cen-
tered plants like the primrose, the
soil should be higher in the center
than at the edge.
1t is well, too, to avoid pouring wa
ter into the crown of the plant, as the
manner in which the leaves come ul
makes them drain the water down in.

Ing slaves of their ruthless masters,
who proceeded to make the quiet,
tractable Indians into beasts of bur-
den, killing them whenever tAey Op-
posed.
The present evil traits of the Indian,
his dishonesty, suspicion of the white
man, and much of his sloth have been
the result of the condition under which
he has been controlled for 400 years or
more. During the old Inca regime such
sins as lying. stealing and adultery
were punishable by the extreme pen
atty, and the home life OF these an
cient people was far better in char

among their successors.
Trustworthy and Frugal.
Nevertheless, you will be told by
those people who know the Indian of
the interior especially that he forms
the best and most trustworthy ele-
ment in Peru today. He is hard work
ing and frugal, living on a small patch
of land, which is frequently opened by
the community or by a large landhold-
er. He will work day after day for
his masters. receiving only ten cents
in Peruvian money, which is equal to
five cents in gold, at the end of the

GARDEN NOTES

Tuberous begonias that have been
growing in the garden should be care
fully dug and dried. Withhold water
from those growing in pots and cover
the tubCrs with dry sand when the tops
disappear and set them away in a
room free from frost.
Roman hyacinths and narcissi for
early Towering, under glass, should be
potted as early as possible.
Begonias do best in good rich loan.
a little sand, small quantity of COW
manure and little powdered charcoal
thoroughly mixed.
Amaryllis bulbs received In the au-
tumn should be placed where they will
be always slightly moist and warm
do not pot up the bulbs before the
flower buds appear. When they are
first potted, give them little water and
promote growth by giving moderate
bottom heat. AS the plants progress
increase the supply of water. The
proper soil is turfy loan well enriched
with rotten manure.

FROM SUGAR TO CELLUL0SE
Scientists Have Been Unable to Learn
From Plants and Trees the Sc
cret of It's Production.

There are certain combinations of
carbon and hydrogen known as sugars
many of them, but all alike in that
they are made up of carbon atoms
strung together as in a chain, with
hydrogen atoms stuck on along the
side of the chain. Now, suppose you
take a number of these sugar mole
cules, as the smallest particles imag-
Unable are called, and bunch them to-
gether so that a lot of these units are
combined into one big complex one.
Then you have a series of resins or
gums. This IS what chemists call
polymeriZation. Now let us take these
resins and by chemical chicanery and
tricks cause them to bunch their mole
cules again, to polynerize, and if we
carry it far enough we get cellulose.
That is, we should if we could.
But trees and plants do this as easy
as you please; they start with water

for surplus to run into.
II tiny seedlings are to be potted of,
then the thumb pot may be best for
the first transplanting, but even here
I would use small, shallow boxes for
flats" until the second or third trans
planting would bring the plants up
to where they are ready for the three
inch pots, or the open ground.
The commercial grower who must
economic in space, and gives con
slant attention to the plants, has use
for the smallest pots, but they are a
nuisance to the average grower OF
plants.

A CCORDING to recent statistics
~ the population of Peru COM
~ prises 100000 people. This
population is divided as fol-
lows: One million two hundred and
sixty thousand mestizos, or mixed
races from intermarriages of the
whites with the Indians. 100000 whites,
100000 negroes, 10000 Orientals and
2,000,000 Indians.
The great problem of Peru Is the
problem of the Indian. who is not only
numerically the important factor in the
country, but is also virtually the only
support of the vast majority Of the
population, according to the Lima cor
respondent of the Christian Science
Monitor. 1t is common saying that
all Peru lives off the Indian If the
Indian was taken out of Peru to-
day the country would suffer until the
remaining portion of the population
had learned by necessity to cultivate
the land and to make q living.
The ancient Inca empire. Of which
Cuzco was the center and the home
of the Inca kings, extended originally
from beyond Quito to the southern
coast of Chile. including what is now
known as Ecuador, Peru and Chile,
and these ancient peoples had here a
civilization in many respects more ad-
vanced than that of the Spanish ad-
venturers who conquered them.
When Pizarro came to Peru there
were nearly 8,OOO.0OO of these inhab-
itants of the Incas' realm in Peru
alone, Industrious, law-abiding, prac.
ticing progressive arts and having ir,
rigated farms, traces of which are still
to be seen along the high peaks of the
Sierra tablelands. Their old homes
and fortresses, their temples and
their architecture reveal a state and
quality of knowledge and architectu
raj skill resembling that of ancient
Egypt.
When the Spaniards came, not tt
cOlonize so much as to conquer, an(
exploit, the Indians were driven from

central plaza with their wares for
sale, makes an unforgettable pic
ture.
The first Impression is one of color
color everywhere. 1t is one vast sea
of yariegated ponchos. shawls and
head-dresses. Women in gay dresses
in front of their little mats, on which
they display the food they have for
sale, or the socks which they have
made, or the ponchos they have woven,
and as they bargain with the passer-by
their hands are always busy with the
little spindle dangling from their arm,
on which they are spinning wool from
which they will make other socks or
ponchoS.
They are never idle, these Indian
women, as they trot along the paths
behind their llamas, as they herd their
| sheep on the hillsides or as they come
| through the streets of Cuzco; you see
| that little spindle being twirled by the
hand which has become so used to the
labor that the motion is performed me-
chanically.
Legal marriage among these Indians
of the Sierras is not general, although
the Indian chooses his mate at an
early age, and his loyalty to her and
her family is usually lifelong, form
ing striking contrast to conditions
found among the cholas or mestizos
occupying the towns and villages.

Much is said of using thumb pots"

pots to the smaller ones.
Or, you can heap the earth against

propose to bend it, and over this the

cd because 1t does not disturb the
roots. The earth should not be as
high where It touches the plant as it
is few inches from it.
The object is to form a support of
soil which will enable you to curve
the bushes over it, thus avoiding the
sharp sudden bends which do SO much
injury to ones plants.
Lay all the bushes in one direction,
placing the stalks close together. By
doing this, much covering can be
saved.
When the plants are laid down
place pieces of sod on them to hold
them in place. If this is not done
they will be sure to spring back tc
an upright position before you gel
them covered.

Possibly the oil expressed from the
pips by direct hot pressing would not

being wholly saponifiable, could, as an
alternative, be used for soap-making.

COLD FRAMES FOR WlNTERlNG
PLANTS
BY /. M. BENNINGTON.


Successful gardening depends on
early production. Cold frame plants
are more certain to live than hotbed
plants and give larger per cent of
good stuff than do the more tender
hotbed plants.
To construct one use two frames in
stead of one. The larger frame is four
and one-half feet by seven and one-half
feet and one foot deep. The inner one
is one foot smaller each way and only
eight inches deep.
The space all around the inner
frame, six inches wide, is filled with
dry sawdust well packed down.
The covering for the inner frame is
a glass-covered sash made to fit quite
close to the frame to exclude the air
The outer frame is covered with an
oiled canvassed frame so as to be wa
terproof
A strip of carpet, or other good
material, is kept over the inner sash
in severe weather.
We prefer shallow framAs to keer
the plants from growing spindling.
We choose a location free from cold
winds and where good exposure tc
the sun can be had
In such a frame there are 3,27t
square inches. and allowing three
square inches to the plant, one car

Good rich soil is used and the unde1
soil is made quite loose to give /;
chance for root growth. 1t is best tt
grow the plants in the open and trans

weather.
Frames of a larger size are no
easily handled nor can the same pro
lection be given them. On mild day
we give light to the plants by remov
ing the outer sash, and if safe we rails
