have these lines laid out and the places
for the plants marked before any
plants are lifted from the hotbed, in
order that the planting may go forward
as rapidly and smoothly as possible. A
board with chalk marks on the edge
will accomplish this admirably for
small beds, or cord with bits OF white
cloth tied at intervals, or chalk marks
even will be useful in long beds or

Client water to fill the hole, and when
it has partially soaked away draw up
the remaining earth and press firmly.
Make a fine dust mulch about the
plant by working the soil lightly with
the trowel. and If any damp places
show after the plant has been set a
few moments go over the soil again or
add dry earth from another part of the
bed If necessary. The planting may be
FASTENED by making a row Of holes

then placed In all the holes, and by the
time the last is filed the first has

The only brewery in Ingham coun-
ty has sold out to the Michigan Auto
Body company, thus showing that the
Vets are not hopeful of winning
again soon. There was much money
spent in Ingham county to make il
appear that the booze business was
thriving under the DRY" regime
such as the hiring drays to move
empty beer cases from place to place
in the city, and hustle about it, and
empty bottles laid in most conspicu-
Gus places. All eyes of the State
were turned to our capital county,
and now that she came out so vic
toriously on the side of God and
right, let everyone take hold all over
the State to GUST booze from out our
border.
The High School boys of Mason
held an open trial of John Barleycorn,
who was accused of the murder of
John Doe. He was found guilty and
the judge sentenced him to immedi-
ate death. Dry goods boxes were
piled high and John Barleycorn was
burned in effigy and being filled with
firecrackers it made quite a patriotic
demonstration. Then the president of
the REQ Motor Co., of Lansing, and
several other prominent men who
were present, gave some fine i'm

Swiss chard is such true cut-and-
come-again that for home or market
it is invaluable, and a poultry-keeper
can find no better or cheaper green
food for fowls that are yarded. The
leaves and stalks are the edible part,
and can be boiled like spinach or the
stalks alone used. They are white and
run the full length of the leaf. Cut
them out and tie loosely; cook and
serve just as you would asparagus.
The new variety called "Lucullus" is
the best. Make the ground very rich;
SOW in rows three feet apart, about
the end of April or the first week in
May. Thin the plants when they are
about two inches high to stand eigh-
teen inches apart. When used as spin
ach cut the leaves when they are ten
inches high, but when the stalks are
to stimulate asparagus gathering
should be delayed until they are about
fourteen inches high. Then cut off the
green part of the leaf, which can still
be used as greens. No matter how the
leaves are to be used or at what
height the crop is cut, be very careful
never to injure the heaHt of the plant,
for if you do successive crops will
be spoiled.
