SWISS CHARD
Material From Correspondence Course in Vegetable
Gardening of the College of Agriculture,
Ohio State University
BY l.. NJ. MONTGOMERY

Swiss chard is worthy of more ex-
tensive culture in the home garden.
1t is sometimes konwn as the celery
beet. 1t does not form enlarged roots
as the ordinary beet, but the edible
portion consists of the we'll developed
succuIent foliage, which may be used
for salads or green's. The leaf blades
are normally removed from the stem
and treated as beet greens. The leaf
stalks are sometimes used in the same
manner as asparagus, though they are
to be regarded as an inferior substi-
tute.
The culture of Swiss chard is very
much the same as for the ordinary
beet, except that it requires more
room and a longer season. The seed
may be sown in early spring, or any
time thereafter up to August l, de-
pending on the method of utilizing the
crop. In the home garden. it will be
found feasible to make an early plant
ing in rows Is inches apart with the
plants thinned to eight to ten inches
in the row. AS soon as the plants at
tain considerable size they may be
thinned out and the Trimmings may be
used entirely. A little later the outer
leaves of the remaining plants may
be pulled off, leaving the plant intact

for further development. The process
of removing the larger leaves may be
continued indefinitely from time to
time throughout the season, as new
leaves continue to form as the larger
ones are removed. In other cases it
Will be better to remove the plants en-
tirely as they attain marketable size.
They may be used at any time after
they reach from IL inches to two feet
in height. The crop does best on a
loamy soil. which should be rather
we'll mixed with barnyard manure.
The use of commercial fertilizers is
not necessarw under the present de-
velopment of culture. A little nitrate
of soda will promote growth, but is
not ordinarily recommended.
Swiss chard is remarkably free from
insects and disease and is resistant to
both heat and cold to an unusual de-
gree. One of its principal advantages
is that 1t has no tendency to go to
seed in hot weather, but continues to
grow vigorously when supplied with
plenty of moisture. In the late au-
tumn, under most conditions, the leaf
spot of the common set may attack
its foliage and do considerable dam
age, but ordinarily it will not be of
any consequence. A more extensive
gorwth of this crop is urged both in
the home and in the market garden.

toward them. The man was powerful

straight as an Indian. His small, red

caught the rapid step Of the music,
and together the two swept down the
floor. The spectators soon showed
their admiration OF the dancing with
unrestrained handclapping, and fol-
lowed with approving outcries. Every
swaying step, every agile turn proved
now sure Nan was of herself, and how

by, De Spain, either with the infec-

eyes riveted themselves on her flushed
face as she passed-oblivious of his
presence-and he recalled how in the
morning she had handled her rife In
the same, quick, sure way. De Spain
could not dance at all: but no one
could successfully accuse him of not
knowing how to handle any sort of a
gun. 1t was only now he forgave her,
unasked, the humiliation she had nut
on him. He felt an impulse to go up
TO her-now that she had stopped
dancing-and congratulate her honest

at the match.

or companion, relegated to the second
table, expected to remain in the back
ground obliged to defer to the wishes
of my employers sister.
And when Grace was old enough
to dispense with my services and go
away to boarding school I would be
left to seek another position, my looks
perhaps fading, myself settling down
to the lonely life of an old maid.
Il am a fool that's what I am" I
exclaimed softly, springing to my feet
and turning on the electric light be-
side my reading chair. Instead of re-
joicing in an easy berth, and the lux
uries that l love, / am complaining
because l cannot be a governess and a
lady of leisure at one and the same
time"
Then I resolutely opened my book
and began to read.
For few minutes I found it difficult
to concentrate upon the printed page
before me. But after a while the charm
of the writer took possession of me,
and 1 forgot everything except the
story I was reading.
An hour must have passed when
voices in the lower hall drew me back
to the present.
Tom Goes Out
Tom and his friend were starting for
the theater. Without pausing to in
quire into the motive that made me
act, I laid down my book and went
out into the hall.
IT'S been a great pleasure to meet
you, Mr., Parker" 1 heard Mr.. Norton
saying cordially. "I shall hope to see
turn to the school"
Thank you, sir" The rich, round
ed tones We're Hugh Parker's. 1 had
heard him speak only the fewest and
briefest of sentences, but 1 remembered
his intonations Il am glad to have
been here this evening. and 1 am CRATE
full to you for your delightful hospital
ity. Tom told me how welcome you
would make me and he did not exag-
gerate single bit"
The men had evidently said good
night to Mrs. Gore in the drawing
room, for I did not hear her voice.
As the front door closed behind the
pair, followed another impulse, which
L did not stop to analyze.
L turned and ran softly into the
nursery. Here, in the dark, l leaned
from the open window and watched the
forms of the two men come down the
front steps below me. Both were tall
one with the slenderness of a boy still
in his teens; the other with the well
setup figure of a man who has devel-
oped along symmetrical lines.
The pair paused for a moment, as
If discussing which was the best way
to go downtown; then they walked to-

subway.
And L kneeling by the window in the
darkened nursery. watched them until
they were out of sight.

l was with them. For, after all, as
has been said, was only girl.

JOY OF DREAMING
HUMANITY'S GIFT
Is Simplest Richest, Yet Cheap
est an Most Available
Luxury
DAY DREAMS

BY Beatrice Fairfax
Relentless Time, that gives both
harsh and kind,
Brave let me be
To take thy various gifts with equal
And proud humility.
But even by day, while the full sun
light streams,
Give me my dreams!
Whatever, Time, thou takest from
my heart,
What from my life,
From what dear thing thou vet mayst
make me part,
Plunge not too deep the knife;
AS dies the day and the long twilight
CLEANS,
Spare me my dreams!
Richard Watson Glider.
The joy of dreaming! Simplest,
richest, yet cheapest and most avail
able luxury of all humanity. 1t is
ours for the mere gift of waiting our
selves gently and hopefully away
from reality into the land of might
have been-and may be!
Illusions must end, but while they
last they take from the bitterest real
ity part of its WEAKNESS.
The child in the tenement who can
dream Of daisy-starred fields and
brooks shaded by weeping willows
has gift in his heart more ex-
quisite than we realize.
Whoever finds his way too rough
| for his feet, too steep for his climb
! ing or too long for his enduring may,
if he has a heart for dreaming, turn
from it for the moment and refresh
his spirit in the land of Imagination.
Practical and materialistic souls
sneer at dreamers and say that they
waste moments that might be spent
in achievement and linger in lands
of veiled shadows. The scoffers are
wrong.
One may fight pain on its own
ground by seeking temporary respite
from it. In the midst of heat the
thought of cool breezes in pine for
ests may give little more strength
/, for enduring reality when one comes
back to it.
+! In dreams one forgets the sordid
anu "6l9B anu III Ildb VI
refreshing forgetfulness one gets
little new strength with which to
return into the pain of reality.
/ Dreamers are not idlers. They
are workers who refresh themselves
with cooling drink from a crystal
stream in their own natures.
Perhaps this sounds so poetical
that many of my readers will dismiss
it with an idle "Oh, yes, that sounds
very we'll" But there is more to it
than that.
There never was a trouble that
wasn't easier to bear if one dreamed
away and on the wings of magma
ton let ones self be waited out of
the region of that trouble.
Make practical test of it, / beg
you. Some night when you are ly-
ing in bed, instead of starting to
fret and grieve over something you
want and can't have, just imagine
you have it. For a moment or two
you will know the actual value of
possession. Dreams are very real
Fsometimes!
Imagining that all beautiful, lovely
| things are yours will not keep you
| from striving to make them yours
| unless you are so silly and stupid and
lacking in force and energy that even
| lifting yourself on the wings of a
| dream is too much for you!
