PLANS FOR INDIVIDUAL
SCHOOL GARDENS

Specialists in the U. S. Department
of Agriculture have planned two speci-
men individual gardens by 16 IL
feet for.use in schools. One of these
is for vegetables alone and the other
for both vegetables and flowers. -
The average pupil, it has been found,
shows a much keener interest in a.
garden of his own than in one owned
in common by all the school. Indi-
yidua1 gardens stimulate pride in own
ership and the work of caring for
them encourages system, skill, and
judgment. Participation in the care
of community garden does not de-
bility and consequently interest and
industry are usually lacking.
The limited area usually available
for school garden work makes it inn
perative that tal1-growing, broad
Ieaved,- and climbing plants be exclud-
ed Radishes, lettuce, BEANS beets,
tomatoes, and other plants which grow
in a compact bush form are recon-
mended for school garden work.
In the first plan recommended by
the Government specialists, the rows
run the short way of the garden, and
with the exception of tomatoes are all
a foot apart Tomatoes are planted
l18 to 20 inches apart. The l. second
garden is of the same area as the Vege-
table garden. The rows are one foot
lapart with the exec ption of the rad
ishesi which are inches. The plants
are grouped according to height of
growth so as to place the ta1l-growing
plants in the center of the garden,
with low-growing plants at the ends.

WARNING TO MUSH-
ROOM GROWERS.

AS the result of a serious case of
mushroom poisoning in mushroom
growers family recently, the mush
room specialists Of the U. s. Depart
men of Agriculture have issued a
warming to Commercial and other
growers of mushrooms to regard with
suspicion any abnormal mushrooms
which appear in their beds. 1t seems
that occasionally sporadic forms ap-
pear in mushroom beds, persist for a
day or two. and then disappear
These are generally nanure-inh abiting
species and may be observed shortly
after the beds have been cased. In
the instance cited, however, these
fungi appeared in considerable num-
bers at the time the edible Agaricus
campestris shouId have been ready for
the market. and the dealer supposed
it was probably a new born variety
and tried it in his own family. AS a
result, five persons were rendered alb
so1utely helpless and were saved after
several hours only through the as
sistance of a second physician who
had had experience with this type of
poisoning.
In the opinion.sof the Department,
this case is peculiarly significant and
dem onstrates that the grower must be
able to distinguish Agaricus campes-
iris from any of the wild forms of
mushrooms that may appear in the
beds. Under the circumstances, the
Department strongly urges every
grower to make hinse1f thoroughly
familiar with the cultivated species.
Complete descriptions. with pictures
of poisonous and cultivated species,

NOTHING TO WORRY ABOUT
-CBoston Post)

Here is the French soldiers phi1o-
sophy of~war. 1t is one of the Iitanies
which the men at the front recite over
and over to themselves and in the
chorus. 1t is characteristic of the
many expressions of soldier philoso-
ply whieh have been written by the
men in the service and taken up by
the whole army.
The following copy of the Iitany was
sent to friend in Cambridge by Henri
Raveau, a Paris business man now at
the front. M Raveau says the litany
is very popular in the trenches.
s'You have two alternatives: either
you are in camp or at the front. If
you are in the camp, you have moth
ing to worry about.
eff you are at the front you have
two alternatives: either you are in re-
serve, or you are on the fighting line.
If you are in reserve, you have nothing
to worry about.
eff you are on the fighting line, you
have two alternatives: either you scrap
or you don't. If you don't you have
nothing to worry about
eff you do you have two alterna-
tives: either you get slightly hurt or
you get badly hurt If slightly, you
have nothing to worry about.
eff badly you have two alternatives:
either you recover or you don't. If
you recover,lyou have nothing to wor-
ry about. If you don't and have folS
lowed my advice clear through, you
have done with worry forever"

SOMEBODY NEEDS YOU.

1.-The love in my heart I know not
Nor how it came to be,
But the bliss that is mine no gold can
buy
Since love has come to me.
o love, dear love! There's nothing so
sweet,
Go search he whole world through.
My heart is as full of it-every beat
Cries out, dear heart, for you.
When a man goes through the world
single for a number of years. he
needn't feel proud of himself He is
cheating some presumably noble wo-
man out of his Affection companion
ship and last, but by no means least,
his protection and support.
1t was the intention of, one far wiser
than he that man should mate. He
knew that there was some poor soul
her life complete. 1t is neither wise
nor best for man to live alone. The
first and greatest need Of his life is
for one nearer and dearer than all 9TH
ers to be close by his side to uphold
his dagging spirits in times Of adVer-
sfty and sorrow.
No man lives his life through from
boyhood to middle age without en-
eountering knocks from the cold
world Even wealth cannot divert
them. When life is young with him,
he may form the. wrong Kind Of at
taschment, close friendships with the
kind of women who are quite content
to coquette and hirt with him over a.
Hong term of, years. But these are the
kind of women who do not need him
and whom he does not need: They
are taking up the~years of his life, his
time and attention from the one pure,
noble woman somewhere in the uni
verse who does need him
Many hold that each person is born
with a soul To me, everything seems
| to indicate that each one is born with
| but half a soul. The two half souls
must be brought together to form a
beautiful perfect souEand and his
true mate!
| feel sorry when I read Of the men
who have lived and died bachelors. 1
/ do not wonder that somewhere some
sweet and noble woman is living a
sp1nster who should have been we'd
.ded to him had they nut met and rec
/ ognfzed in each other their ideal
| They were like ships that passed in
i the, night, yet never spoke. The ques-
ton with every man should be, Who
and where is the one woman in this
world who needs me to fulfill her des-
tiny? With this thought uppermost in
his heart, he should seek diligently
until he is brought face to face with
her. No man is so great, Of so much
Importance in the world, that he
should dodge this issue. Tt is actually
his duty to find Lat woFHln who
needs him more than all others.
i Every man should concern himself
deeply in the question, stWho is for
me 2" and not set himself firmly
against the holy joys of a ma rino-
NAL alliance. Likewise men should
fight nobly against the passion thai
Iofttimes creeps into their hearts when
they know beforehand twill not re-
suit in marriage.
For every man there is one stead
fast true, woman1y heart that was in
TENDED to beat only for him. It is a
God-g1ven mission for a man to rC
forth, search and find That is the
one woman whose half soul mates
with his and who needs him. -

Chinese Rebels Cut
All Telegraph Wires

Picking, April 11.-Since the out
break of the Yunnan revolution and
the invasion of >Szechuen province by
the revoIutionists, the central govern
nent has fully realized the necessity
for wireless te1egraphs The rebels
have constantly interfered with the
telegraph and telephone lines, and con-
sequently communication has been ex-
trenely difficult between Picking and
Chengtu and Chungkfng, the centers
from which the government has been
endeavoring to direct its efforts against
the rebels. Wireless stations are to
be erected Immediately at both Cheng-
tn and Chungking, the minister of
communications having despatched
the director of telegraphs to Szechuen
province for the purpose of construct
ing the two wireless stations.
Plans are also under consideration
for the erection of wireless stations
along the great wall northwest of Pc
king, where it will be possible to check
the operations of bandits more eff
fective1y If the Picking government can
keep various detachments of troops
in constant communication. +
