Not Too Late to Plant.

F. F. Rockwell, author of
Around the year in the Gar
den" &c.. says it is not yet toe
late. to grow a good supply of
vegetables, even if you have not
had a garden this year; or, if
you have some idle ground that
you wish to utilize.
There is among amateur gard
eners an unwritten tradition that
gardens must be planted in the
spring. AS a matter of fact a
fairly complete garden may be
planted successfully as late as
the middle of July. There are
approximately 100 days of grow
ing weather after that date,
while the majority of vegetables
require less than 80 days to be
ready for use. 1t is a fact that
Nature does most of her seed
sowing, not in the spring, but
during the summer and early fall.
One of the chief reasons why
summer planting is not carried
on more extensively is that, in
many sections of the country,
we usually have at that time a
dry condition of the soil that de-
lays or interferes with germina-
ton.
This year fortunately, we have
had abundant rains throughout
June, so that the soil is just the
right condition to assure the
prompt termination of seeds
planted now.
WHAT YOU CAN PLANT NOW.
The list of vegetables which
can still be grown this year in
cludes: Beans, Beets, Cabbage,
Caulihower, Celery, Sweet Corn,
Lettuce, Peas, Radish, Squash
(Summer) and Turnips. OF the
above..vegetables, Cabbage. cauli-
flower, and Celery, may be OBJ
tanned locally In plants already
started. Ifyou can get the plants,
there is still plenty of time for
tomatoes. They will be in their
prime during September and
early October, when the local
crop is pretty well gone by, and
both ripe and green tomatoes for
making pickles and preserves
are hard to get.
The other vegetables. in the
list above, should be started now
from seed. There is one point
about which care should be taken,
however, That is:-For Late
Planting use Early varieties.
This advice may seem para
doxicaI at first. but will appear
commonsense on a moments re-
Election.

Vegetables and Fruits that Dry Well


In an article about the dried
fruit industry in Farm and Fire
side, a writer says:
Vegetables like Irish an d
sweet potatoes, sweet corn, string
and shelled beans, require par
ticular care to prevent souring
during the drying process.
"Raspberries, blackberries, log
anberries, and huckleberries are
usually overdried and become
like shot in hardness and the
quality suffers by thus overdry-
ing. The right stage with ber-
ries is when they can be squeezed
without showing stain on the
hands.
1t is a safe precaution before
storing all dried products to keep
them in a screened, warm and
rat-proof airy place like an attic,
in baskets or other ventilated
containers where they can be ex-
amined daily for week or two
to make sure there is no interior
moisture that might cause spoil
age were the dried products at
once tightly stored"

Secretary of Navy Daniels
made the statment last week
that he can increase the gas pro-
duction in United States from g.
600, 100000, gallons to 9,000,-
600, 900, a year. and can thereby
furnish gasoline to the Govern
ment at six cents per gallon.
1t is estimated that the stu
pendous sum of $3.50, 600, 900
was spent for automobile tires
last year. Of this vast expendi-
ture experts figure $105, 900, 900
was squandered by auto drivers
through carelessness and ignor-
ance in the use and care of tires.

manner as when crank was used.
Caution: Do not lower jack until

One farmer, in Oklahoma,
who had lost in failures of cereal
crops during series of years,
decided to seed all his land to
potatoes this year. His enter
prise was successful, and two
weeks ago he was paid $50, 900
spot cash for the crop in the
ground. Farmers are getting
$3.50 a bushel for their potatoes,
against sixty-fve cents this time
last year.

SAYS THE DRUG IS
.AN ETHER COMPOUND
Just a few drops loosen any corn
so it lifts out with
out main

You simply say to the drug store
man, Give me quarter of an ounce
OF treezone." This will cost very little
but is sufficient to remove every hard
or soft corn from ones feet.
A few drops applied directly upon a
tender, aching corn should relieve the
screness instanctly, and soon the en-
tire corn, root and all can be lifted out
with the fingues without pain.
This new drug called freezone is an
ether compound discovered by Gin
cinnati man, who says that while
freezone is sticky it dries in moment
and SIMPLY shrivels up the corn without
lnilaming or even irritating the sur.
rounding tissue or skin.

SPRING FEVER.

At this season of the year the blood of man and woman is likely to be- come atrophied. We live in a state of lethargy. We do not feel like work ing. We do not feel like doing any thing. We suffer with that insidious attack of spring fever, that has never been properly explained or has never been thoroughly understood. It is in the spring that the sap flows through the trees, when the in- spiration of youth kindles life in the creative world
 1t Is in the spring when young mans fancy turns lightly to thoughts of love, as one of our poetical friends so expressively wrote, yet it is in the spring that we suffer with an unex- plainable languor that makes us hesi- tate in our daily labor. We seem to be lacking in physical and mental energy. We do not seem disposed to exert ourselves. We adopt the Chi nese proverb not to do today that which we can put off until tomorrow.
 There is only one cure for spring fever, and that is to work it off. It possibly may not be to the taste, but at the same time it is case where the eXigencies of the situation must be considered.
 Exercise, open air life, simple feed ing, mean everything. A long walk in the early hours of the morning will do a great deal toward awakening new life in a wornout constitution.
 The blood of winter grows thick and the pulse beats slow. We begin new life in the spring and the slug gish spirit begins to change. It is in this transitional period that we feel that hesitancy, that reluctant spirit to do anything. We desire to let things go by and not to worry about anything.
 This very spirit should be discour- aged at the beginning We must never give up. We must never loaf on the job. We must never knuckle down and be called a quitter. We must face the battle of life even if we are af- fiicted with spring fever. We must get out in the garden; we must get busy with the birds, we must sing with them and we must realize that since the beginning of nearly all things starts with the awakening of the year we must keep pace with the spirit of the time and keep pace with the demands of nature-Commerc Appeal.

subject to revision, indicate the fol- lowing entente needs:
 For Great Britain, $200,000,000 to $250,000,000 a month; for France, from $100,000,000 to 5,000,000; for Russia a sum undetermined, but up to $100,000,000 month, depending largely upon the ability of manufac- turing plants in this country to meet her demands; for Italy, about $50,- 100000 month.
 Should these requirements be met in their entirety the $3,00O,0OO ,OOO available for lending the allies would be exhausted in from six to 2 1-2 months. It is likely, however, that the preliminary estimates can be pared down to a point where the huge loan could be made to cover require ments, possibly for one year.

SENATOR KIRBY AGAIN
 OPPOSED TO PRESIDENT

Little Rock, April 27.-Again Unit ed States Senator Wm. F. Kirby is opposed to President Woodrow Will son on matters pertaining to the war policy of the United States, and he announces his intention to vote against selective conscription. The announcement was made in answer to a request from the Arkansas Associa- ton of Fire Insurance Agents. that he stand behind President Wilson in the present crisis.
 Senator Kirby answered the mes sage as follows: Message received, can see no justice in requiring only boys from 19 to 25 years of age con scripted for the army and all others excused from service, and no neces- sity for conscription at all since it is impossible to equip the number of troops raised before August first, giv- ing them ample time to volunteer upon call of the President This pro- vision is unfair unjust, un-Democra- tic, un-American, and unnecessary and l shall oppose it."
 The message sent to Senator Kirby was; Respectfully urge you to sup port pending bill for selective con- scription. and in doing so believe we reflect majority opinion of the state"
