In q recent article on the national
igh-cost-Of-living problem, writer
states that the solution Of the situation
is the stimulation Of farmers to pro
duce more food. There are points to
be made on both sides OF the question
as to whether or not this is practical.
The production Of more food for home
use, however, will greatly reduce fam
lily expenditure, and will often add to
the family income through the sale Of
surplus products.
"The size OF the home garden de-
ponds on the amount of vegetables
wanted" says j. X. Iepler, instructor
in vegetable gardening at the WiscOn-
sin college of agriculture, ''but, in most
cases it need not be larger than half
an acre" Mr.. Helper states that near
ly all vegetables require a large
amount OF organic matter in the soil,
and that this can best be supplied in
the form OF WCll-rott"d barnyard ma
nure used ut the rate Of about twelve
to twenty toms for each acre. Com
merciai fertilizers. lie thinks. are of lit
tie hnnlti, tErnpl in he cas-" Of very
poor soils The fertilizer should be
applied in the spring .nd then turned
under. It is his opinion that frequent
and thorough diSllingS of the soil be-
fore planting will aid greatly in con
trolling "rcds and will provide q bet
ter Seelbed for the vegetables.
"In planning the garden, all rows
should be at least three feet apart so
that The garden may be cultivated by
horses Most of the drudgery that
comes from hand wedding and hand
cultivation can Big eliminated by cult
waiting the garden as often and as
thoroughly aS the cornfeld is TILED.
The earliest planting in the gar
den, Mr.. Hepler states, should include
the harder vegetables. such as radiSh,
peas, lettuce. spinach, early turnip,
and onions, and Il Shou3d be made rs

rutabagas, parsnips. and beets are
started about May 10. The Chantenay
carrot, Breadstone rutabaga, Guern-
sey parsnip, and Detroit dark red beet.
are good varieties for the home gar
den. Three paintings of cabbage
should be made, the first about May 10
for the early crop, the second about
June 10, for the fall use, and the third
about June %, to provide storing cab
bage. Start the seed six weeks before
no plants are needed for transplant

For Work Apron. ~
creaSing the meas
urements given or by cutting the com
pleted pattern lengthwise and cross
wise through center and separating
parts until the pattern is large enough.
Any material Of medium heavy
weight such as muslin, drilling. per
Gale or butchers linen, may be used
for the apron. In cutting out the gar
ment. place the center front and cen
ter back of the pattern on the length
wise fold of the material.
The apron has no placket but is
closed by fastening linen tape to the
shoulder openings and tying the apron
together. This avoids the use of but
tons and the garment can be put
through the mangler instead of being
ironed by hand.
Use bias binding tape for inishing
the top, bottom and armholes. French
seams, one-eighth of an inch wide
should be used for closing garment.

Government Positions.

The United States government
needs, and needs badly, great
numbers of stenographers and
typewriters, both men and wo-
man, for service in the depart
ments at Washington, and the
shortage of this kind of help in
the federal offices outside of
Washington is just as pressing.
The supply of qualified persons
on the commissions lists for this
classs of work is not equal to the
demand, and the commission
urges as patriotic duty, that
citizens with this special know
ledge apply for examination.
At present all who pass the exam
mination for the departments tai
service are certified Immediately
for appointment. Full informa-
ton as to when and where exam
nations are to be held can be
had upon inquiry of the post
masters.

Red Cross Notes.

The Winslow Chapter has just
received and put into effect and
entirely new system for record
ing memberships. Certificates
of membership are made out in
quadruplicate, the original is
mailed to the member, one copy
is sent to headquarters, one to
the treasurer of the Chapter,
while the fourth is retained as a
record by the secretary.
1t is quite probable that during
the campaign for membership
errors in recording names may
have occurred, due to the fact
that So, many different persons
helped with the work. Any err
rors brought to our attention will
be gladly corrected.
Recently we have mailed to
each member with EXCEPTIONS
noted below a certificate of
membership according to our re
cords. Anyone who has paid his
membership fee and fails to re-
ceive certificate should report
the matter at once either in per-
son or by mail. Furthermore,
should any name be mispelled or
have incorrect initials, we desire
to make the correction.
We have not mailed certificates
to any of our Japanese members,
nor to any of those whose names
have already been forwarded to
Washington, as our supply of GER
tificates are temporarily exhaust
ed. AS soon as the new supply
arrives we shall complete the
list.
When the President of the
United States requested the Red
Cross to raise the $100, 900, 900
war fund, provision was made to
include a membership in the Red
Cross for every one who paid ST
or more. therefore, there will be
quite a number who not having
paid the regular membership fee
will automatically become men,
bers through having contributed
to the War Fund.
The regular annual meeting
provided for in the bylaws will
be held on the evening of October
lst, for the purpose of electing
officers. and an executive COM
mittee, presenting reports of the
work already done, and transact
ing other business. This early
announcement is made in order
that all members may have the
date in mind, but especially in
order that the citizens of Win
slow who are interested in this
great international society, and
who feel it their duty to assume
some of the responsibility for the
success of the Winslow Chapter,
may have sufficient time to secure
officers for the ensuing year.

The fact that your bank balance is a
small one need not deter you from
keeping it here. It is not necessarily
the millionaire who keeps the factor
les busy, or the banks bulging. There
are more small fortunes in the world

Perhaps one OF the greatest difficulties
in the matter of reaching fair conclu-
sions in this price fixing business comes
from the fact that for months We have
been fed upon abnormal earnings. and
that old human nature Is 80 Jealous Of
those extraordinary earnings II becomes
exceedingly unwilling to surrender even
a portion of them Business men
throughout the country, however, are
showing q tendency to cooperate with
the Government, and in return they ex-
pect fair treatment from the Govern
ment in price fixing and taxation.
II we are to have a drastic downward
revision of prices II will hurt industry.
II that price revision is to be based upon
scientific calculations OF the cost of
production. including that very impor-
tant factor the price of labor. then busi-
ness win readjust itself to now condi-

must make heavy wartime contributions
