Die complaint is a habit; 10 these

Yet it may be doubted whether
the complaining ones often receive

the national emergency food gar

TO cut the cost of living.
There is okra, for instance. How
many housewives ever trouble to
buy okra2 Yet gumbo soup,
which is made from okra, is rel
ished by almost everyone.
Okra is just one of the special,
unusual vegetable crops which can
be grown on little space and with
little trouble in the average back
yard garden Other specialties
which the home gardener should
consider are mustard, parsley, spin
ach and peppers.
If okra is planted two feet apart
as soon as the ground is warm and
the pods (Which are the edible

are picked green, none being al
lowed to ripen. the plants will con-

Mustard green's are a delicious
novelty on most ia bles. Sow os-

tober.
Parsley as a garnish and flavor
is we'll known. A bed three feet
square will produce all that a good
sized family can use.
Spinach is the most popular plant
used for green's. II can be planted
in the fall and used in the late au-
tumn and early spring, thus not in
terfering with other crops.

PRESS CENSORSHIP
 IN BALANCE
International News Service.


 WASHINGTON, May 25.APress censorship hangs in the balance pend ing the strenuous efforts that are be- ing put forth to ascertain the correct form that should be adopted wherein the press of the United States will be allowed sufficient freedom without interfering with war plans.
 President Wilson in asking for the power to regulate the press, says that this power should be vested in him fom all indications he has found the only feasible form of censorship that could be adopted without distressing results.
 All other forms that have been pre- sented according to the president have so throttled the press that if adopted there would be no end of clamoring on the part of the great news gathering associations of the country, and this should be avoided IS 1t would establish a feeling of rebellion among our people, for the influence of the press must not be overlooked.
