Farmer Must Win War.

Clifford Pinehot writes to The Re
former:
- In this great time, when every
citizen must do his part, the President
has made his chief appeal to the men
who live on the land. The safety of
our country just now is in the hands
of our farmers.
1.-The two great weapons in this war
are arms and starvation. The war
against German armies will be won or
lost in France-the war against star.
walton will be won or lost in America.
The Kaiser cannot. whip the French and

answer. We shall have. money, food

would the Germans treat us better
than they have already treated Bel

e Even if the armies of our allie:

4 RADIsH AND LETTUCE.
OF Slight Food Value, Yet Attractive
and Wholesome.

Radish and lettuce always are ia
vorite plants in small and large gar
dens, not because of their food value,
which is quite low, but as attractive |
and healthful additions to the diet. |
The radish is quite hardy and may be
grown throughout the winter III hot
beds. The seed may be sown in open
ground as soon as the soil can be made
ready, and should be planted in drills
u inches apart. For best quality the
radish must be grown on a quick, rich
soil, some of the earlier varieties grow
ing to edible size in three to four
weeks after planting. Rapid growth
and early pulling insure solid, crisp,
fresh and delicate flavor. For a con
slant supply make paintings every two
weeks. An ounce of seed is sufficient
to plant 100 feet of row. The seed
usually terminates well. and if care is
taken IL sowing, thinning will be UNI
necessary. If the first plants to APP
pear are pulled as soon as they are of
sufficient size, room will be left for
those which come later. Radish are
best grown in early summer and au-
tumn as they are not particularly well
suited to hot weather.
! Lettuce grows best on a rich soil,
where there is plenty of organic mat
ter to insure rapid gorwth. 1t does not
stand hot weather well, thriving best
IN spring and autumn. Lettuce and
radish can be grown under thin cloth
shade very satisfactorily in hot wealth
or. 1t is well to grow both loose leaf
and head lettuce. Plant in rows IA to
l6 inches apart. Thin loose leaf to six
inches apart and head to y inches
iapart, giving plenty of space for good
individual plant development. Re
move the entire plant when large
enough to use.
For an early crop it is well to star
lplants in house or hot bed and trans
plant to the garden when soil condi
tions are right. Frequent shallow cul
tivations will assist rapid growth.
Varieties of lettuce suitable IN Yer
: mont gardens are loose leaf Gran,
: Rapids and Black Seeded Simpson a
? heading varieties; early, May King
later Black Seeded Tennis Ball. Cali
S fornia Cream Butter and Big Boston o
c Deacon.
n Some good varieties of summer rad
q ishes are Early Scarlet or Cardina
e Globe, and White Icicle. All of til
$ round red varieties are good but til
