are examples. But when the yegeta
bic remains ia edible condition for only
short time frequent sowings and
small paintings should be thesrule: pea
and snap beans are OF this class. Veg
etables that frnit through a long SEES
son, as tomato, should have at least
two paintings for best results There
is much waste in planting too much at
time. The general rule should be to
plant often, and little at a time
Snap beans should be planted every
fifteen days from the middle OF April
to the first Of September, If continu-
Gus supply is wanted in the best con

used az gresn onions In May and June.

Turnips, planted the Arst week in
August, will make a good Yield Tor fall
and winter use, and the culls, II left
In the ground and undistuFbed, will
give d good supply OF green's turnout
the winter and spring.
A small planting of tomatoes should
be made al early as possible for table
use. but for the main crop, for can
ming, seed may be sown where the
plants are to stand, in late April, and
the crop will be at Its best in Septem
Der and October.
II beans are wanted for canning, an
extra large planting should be made
about the middle Of June or the first
of July. The remaining paintings of
beans are intended for table use. and
as the bean only snaps for about q
week, frequent paintings are neces-
sary.

I'm the battle OF Arras." Maurice
continued, I'VE captured two hundred
as large as that reclaimed in the
battle of the Somme.
We've got the Germans reduced
to such a stage of nervousness they
claim big losses at a point we didn't
attack. MAY 81 the Germans reported
a British attack on the thirty kilo-
meter front in the Arras-CaInbrai
road was repelIed with heavy fosseE
The fact is no single British soldier
moved in that sector Whenever we
attack We say so.
"A German order captured on one
prisoner dated prior to the Arras
battle. says no commander must al
Tow his troops to surrender. but they
shall contest every inch of ground.
Those surrendering. the order stated
are guilty of the basest treachery to
