FOR GARDENERS.
How to Keep Bulbs All Through the
Next Winter

How to Keep Bulbs All Through the
Next Winter.
Cannas. dahlias and gladioli are all
classed as tender perennials or in
other words, plants that live and
bloom year after year, but are unable
to withstand the cold winters because
freezing OF the root or bulb destroys
them. These plants may be allowed
to grow until the first heavy frost
comes, killing the foliage, then atten-
ton should be given them at once.
The tops of cannas and dahlias
should be removed about six inches
from the roots, the roots dug and the
loose soil shaken ont. Let the roots
dry a few hours In the sun and then
place them in permanent storage,
which should be in cool, dry place.
A place suitable for the storage of po-
tatoes will he ideal for these bulbs.
Gladioli may be dug just as soon as
the tops IRE dry whether there has
been n killing frost or not Let the
plants lie iii the sun to cure for few
days. When the stalk is dry cut it
Off to within an inch Of the CORN.
When the roots are thoroughly dry
place them in Fat trays anywhere out
of the reach Of frost. They may be
stored with the Gamma and dahlia bulbs
very satisfactorily.

HOW -----
To Keep White Furs Clean
in Summer Time
TT is not always easy to keep whito

TT is not always easy to keep whito
furs white in summer and one
does not like TO 30 to the expense
of having them cleaned in midseason.
Do not, however. ever attempt to have
them cleaned with benzine or gasoline
by any one but an expert, as it is not
at all easy and if not properly done
may seriously injure the fur. A per-
feetl'' harmless way of cleaning the
furs yourself is by means of sawdust
Secure sawdust that is made from as
porous woods as possible. However,
any clean sawdust will do. Have plen.
ty Of it. and then rub it thoroughly
into the fur, allowing 1t to remain or
for eight hours at time so as to alb.
serb any grease that may possibly
have got on the furs. When the saw.
dust has been well worked into tho
fur and allowed to remain there some
time shake the FIR in the open until it
Is out. COrnmeal is also effective, but
the sawdust Is cheaper, and this is u
consideration when one has to use u
frequently. OF course the sawdust OF
cornmeal should be used but once. as
it comes away carrying dust and soil
Furricrs frequently use hot sand to
clean furs and this Is very good TOO.
For the girl at the seashOre ii would
he an excellent idea 70 get a quantity
of pure. clean sand for this purpose.
Professional furriers sometimes have
a sort of mechanical arrangement con-
tanning heated sand, in which the furs
may be gently kneaded about, The
amateur can simply heat the sand IN
the oven and then rub it into the fur
thoroughly, as she would the sawdust.
or course the sand should not be ex-
cessively hot. 1t should never be hot
ter than can easily be- manipulated
with the hand. 10 53d
II furs have BEEN getl 90 damp they
should never be dried rapidly. They
should be arranged so that the fur is
evenly exposed to the air and left to
dry thus In the open. When thorough
ly dry they should be shaken into posi-
ton. Never use comb or brush on
furs II shaking will not restore the
original smoothness to the fur gently
manipulate 1t with the fingers, care
fully picking apart any hairs that have
become matted.

From out of the west 6omes, The cleo

The essentials are a small shocking

driver. Electric wires run from the
shocking coil to four snap keys on tho
harness reins Other wires lead from
these keys to various points on the

If the horse gets balky and refuses

How to Care For China and Glass So

Many who find that their fingers

cHlLD's BODY UNBOUND
Women Lead Officers kstray and Ef-
forts Are in Vain.

St Johnsbury, July AIRS. Mary
Hicks. the self-confessed murderer OF
little Alice Bradshaw, led the authori-
ties on another Wild goose chase to-
day in the search for the body Of the
eight year old cripple murdered Thurs
day. Accompanied by Sheriff Worth
EN-, his deputies, States Attorney
Campbell and E. H. II. Gray, a neigh
boring farmer who is familiar with the
country, the Hicks woman went to a
cedar swamp, some 800 rods from the
Bradshaw farm house. Before leaving
the jail she had told Sheriff Worthen
that the body was buried in cedar
swamp and that she would show them
the place. The party went down
through pasture into the swamp
where she indicated a clump of cedars
in miry bog, stating the body was
there. The men dug until they struck
hardpan. although convinced that no
woman could have entered the swamp
at that point without being mired.
Then she told them that the body
was on an old country road, which
was abandoned many years ago, I'M
der some old logs and that place was
also searched without result. The
woman was then returned to the Jail
This afternoon she broke down
when her father, John Hicks of New
bury, was admitted to her cell. Again
she agreed to tell just where the body

COMMON HUMAN FAILING
Men Are Very Much Inclined to Dis
like Their Jobs

y certain discomfort with the i'm.
mediate job is one of the most com
mon OF human failings. Ninety-nine
out of every hundred of
MS are conscious of it at inter.
walls, or more or less continuously
There are times, and with some 1t is
practically all the time, when we
would like to do something else. be
something else or be somewhere else
The grass on the other side of the
road looks greener: the other fellows
job locks easier and more desirable.
Blessed is the man who has found
his work and rejoices in it, or words
to that effect, as the late Ebert Hub
bard or somebody once remarked.
From observation and hearsay we
might conclude that it is only a small
percentage Of men who have really
found their work. According to the
frequent testimony of the majority
they are convinced that they are real.
ly better fitted for some other work.
They feel that If their true vocations
ever spoke when they were choosing
their careers 1t must have bedn in in.
audible whispers, and that fate un.
kindly permitted them to get side
tracked
Stranger than this is the apparent
conviction OF u great many persons
that they could perform some other
task much better than the one handed
to them by an unreasonable destiny,
and practically as we'll as that other
task is being performed by those who
have had years of training and ex-
perience in it, Doubtless i'm some
instances they are right There are
many square pegs in round holes, and
vice versa, but the strange fact ne.
mains that this delusion is cherished
by very many persons whose achieve.
ments in their own line prove con-
clusively that their performance in
the field that seems so alluring would
be fully as inferior In quality.
OF course, the factor of interest In
ones work is of vital Importance in
the matter of results A lack Of in.
terest Is more than likely to produce
poor work, while enthusiasm is con.
ducive to excellence. And the matter
OF natural gifts or inclinations must
be taken into account. But after
these factors are reckoned with there
still remain certain natural traits that
are bound to affect the quality OF a
persons effort In whatever channel
1t is directed. There Is the matter OF
craftsmanship II ones work Is slop
by In any particular trade, a certain
sloppiness is bound to appear in his
efforts in any line. II neatness, order
illness AVID precision are not in ones
makeup, then the lack will manifest
Itself in whatever one does, whether
as plumber professor or poet.-Proyi

CONFERENCE ON FOOD
CONTROL IS HELD UP
Led by Mann, Situation
Looks Like Partisan Fight.

Washington, July 24.-The admin
istrations program OF food legislation
encountered another delay today when
Republican Leader Mann blocked plans
to hurry the food control bill to con-
ference.
The proposal to create a joint COM
mittee of congress on expenditures of
the war. written into the bill in the
senate and objected to by President
Wilson as signifying lack of conf
dence in him, was the feature which
started the trouble The Republican
leader rallied many members of his
party about him and tonight the sit
uation had taken on the aspect of a
partisan fight, virtually for the first
time since the war session met.
Administration leaders are prepared
to bring in a special rule tomorrow
under which they expect to force u
conference and, in addition, to instruct
the conferees to disagree to all senate
amendments.
Taken by Surprise.
Taking the administration managers
by surprise, Mr.. Mann served notice
today that he would not give unani-
nous consent for the bill to 60 to
conference unless separate vote We're
permitted on the war committee pro-
pOsal. \ hasty convass of those pres
cnt convinced the administration men
that they could not be certain of 4
majority against the proposal, and ad =
jOurnment was taken.
Unanimous consent again will be
asked tomorrow before the special
rule is invoked. but the Republican
leaders have summoned the entire
membership here for a vote and a par
tisan division seems certain. In prep
