what and when to plant, how to
plant It and care for it,
BY A GARDNER.
Planning the garden is most i'm
portant.
A badly planned garden interferes
with cultiyating and harvesting OF
vegetables you will get.
The question to many first season
gardeners is whether to make use
of the backyard or a vacant lot near
by.
Against the vacant lot is the pos
sibility of some other person reap
ing some of the harvest and the like
lihood that you won't spend as much
time in it as you should. Against
the backyard garden is the POSSIBLE
ity of its being needed for the child
rem, or that it is shaded too much.
| have in my backyard a garden
space of 80 feet deep and GO feet
wide, but l also make use Of small
patches Of ground in other parts Of
the yard, and of hotbeds and cold
frames.
If you have backyard in which
the sun may shine, make use or It,
And if there's vacant lot nearby
which you can get rent free, take it.

run all my rows from north to
south. That lets the suns rays get
between the rows.
Dividing my plot into two equal
spaces l run a path down the center.
This I have filled with cinders, trod-
den down. This makes dry path
way on rainy days. 1t can, Of
course, be just a well beaten earth
pathway. e....
To the south of the path are the
smaller plants, onions, lettuce, rad
ishes, beets, spinach. carrots, turnips,
parsnips and potatoes.
BY grouping the small vegetables
toward the south you do not shut off
the sun from the northern part. II
there's one thing vegetables need it
is sunshine.
If there is a spot to which the sun
doesn't get for long periods plant
that to onions, lettuce, radishes, spin
ash rather than to corn, tomatoes,
cabbages, potatoes or beans.
On the north side Of my garden
| have peas, beans, cabbages, toma-
toes and sweet corn.

WHY RHEUMATISM COMES
WITH COLD WEATHER
(By Valentine Mott Pierce, N. d.

Wy VOkVMV1A1O AAUVV = 1IASSy AUS NV,
A close connection exists between
these two-cold weather and rheu-
matism. Prof., Alex. Haig, of Lon
don. has the most followers in tho
medical profession in the belief that
the presence in the system of uric:
acid, or its salts in excess, is the
real cause of rheumatism. Every
one has recognized the difference In
the appearance of their water as
it gets cold; there is often Q copious
sediment of "brickdust"
Several causes may lead up to an
accumulation of uric acid in the sys-
tenn, which, in turn cause rheuma-
tism or govt, or creaky joints, swol-
len fingers, or painful joints. For
one reason the skin does not throw
off the uric acid, by profuse sweat
ing, as in the hot weather, and the
kidneys are unable to take care OF
the double burden. Another reason
is that people do not drink as much
water in cold weather as in summer,
which helps to flush the kidneys.
Again, they eat more meat in cold
weather, and some people are so sus-
ceptible that they soon develop rheu-
matism after eating meat.
At all such times persons should
drink cOpiously of hot water, say, a
pint morning and night, and take
Anuric double strength) three or
four times a day. This Anuric comes
in tablet form and can be had at al
most any drug store. 1t dissolves
the uric acid in the system and car
ries it outward. would advise
everyone to take Anuric occasional
ly, and continue for three or four
weeks, and In that way avoid rheu
matism, govt and many of the pain
full disorders due to uric acid in the
system.
Make yourself healthy and strong
by open-air exercise and diet. Then
cleanse the liver by occasionally
stimulating its action with a pleasant
laxative composed of the May-apple

LOOKING FACTS IN THE FACE.

Washington admits that with the
Russian debacle the last remaining
hope of short struggle goes glim-
mering. We have been of the opinion
for some time, and everybody realizes
that America is in for a bloody ex-
perience, out of which victory will
emerge only after terrible sacrifice.
American army officers do not be-
ieve that the line in the west, upon
which Germany depends, has been Sc
riously impaired. The one strategic
advantage gained recently improved
the German position, when the leu
tons overwhelmed small sector of the
British line in Belgium, and material
ly strengthened their weakest front
The reports from the front are not
cheering. While no doubt exists as to
the ability of the Allies to withstand
any force Germany can exert, consid-
erahle time and ample sea transporta-
ton, upon which American aid de-
ponds, are necessary before any seri-
Gus attempt can be made against the
German fortified line.
The administration does not want
us to be unprepared for long war,
and the character of the fighting in
the west must be understood. The
maze of trenches, entanglements, ar
mored posts and fortified villages ex-
tends miles back of the front on both
sides, so that in effect fortified belt
stretches from the sea to the Swiss
border that isperhaps more than 100
miles wide.
An old military rule establishes the
principle that fortified positions can
not be taken by direct attack, but must
be turned. As it is now, allied at
tempts to cut through have been
jthwarted, but some observers believe
that the best chance to beat Germany
would be to outfank the end resting
in Belgium. This would help solve the
sub question by smashing some of the
bases, but the price to be paid in
men would be appalling. However,
many British and American officers
advocate such desperate attempt. i

PROHIBITION
AMENDMENT IN
SENATE PASSES

Washington, Aug. Ia resolution
for submission to the states of pro-
hibition amendment to the federal con-
stitution was adopted today by the
senate. Thegvote was IS to 20, eight
more than the necessary two-thirds.
First 'Dry" Amendmen to Pass Eth
er House.
The proposed constitutional amend
ment is the first initiated by congress
since that providing for popular cleo
ton of United States senators, APP
proved in 1911. 1t is the first time
that either branch of congress has ap-
proved constitutional amendment for
prohibition. A few years ago, a s;;.ni-
lar resolution in the house received
majority, but failed of the required
two thirds.
Prohibition leaders of the house now
claim enough votes to insure submits
sion of an amendment to the states
and will seek early discussion in the
house.
The senate's action today came after
three days of debate. All efforts to
amend the resolution failed except for
the addition of Senator Harding's
amendment fixing the six years time
limit within which three-feurths of the
states must ratify the amendment TO
make it effective. This was approx
ed, .56 to %.
AS adopted the resolution which was
submitted by Senator Sheppard, of
Texas, democrat, would add the fol-
lowing article to the federal consti-
tuition:
The Proposed Amendment.
"The manufacture, sale or transpor-
tation of intoxicating liquors, or the
importation thereof into or the expor-
tation thereof from the United States
and all territory subject to the juris-
diction thereof for beverage purposes
is hereby prohibited.
ms article shall be imperative I'M
less it shall have been ratified as an
amendment to the constitution by the
legislatures of the several states, as
provided in the constitution, within sly
years from the date of the submission
hereof to the states b. the congress.
"The congress shall have lower to
enforce this article by appropriate leg
islation"
Although most of the debate on the
resolution had been perfunctory, brief,
spirited s,tJcvrirv7 under ten -.ari,auto
limit were made today to crowded gal
leries, with the senate sweltering in
one Of the hottest of summer days.
On the final roll-call several senator's
said to oppose prohibition voted for
TIE resolution, desiring, they said, to
have the "wet" and "dry" battle trans
ferred from the national capitol to the
states and to prevent prohibition prop
uganda from impeding other matters
before congress.

GROW BEANS
THEY PAY BIG

It may be Of interest to the readers
Of The Leader to know that the navy
bean, OF white bean, crop of this coun-
try is one of the most important crops
there is grown. The following figures
show you what the state of Michigan,
the great growing state, grew in
1917, as forecasted by the United
States department Of agriculture in
their crop report for July. This report
shows that the state of Michigan grew
8,287,000 bushels of navy beans on
500 900 acres, or an average of about
Is bushels to the acre. This crop of
beans is worth at the present time at
retail prices in Florida, twenty cents
per pound and would net the growers
six times as much as the entire Or
ange crop of Florida. These beans are
grown on the pine barrens of Michi-
gan. The territory looks as much like
Florida piney woods as anything you
can think of, and these beans are
grown by the poorer farmers who
make lot of money out of it. These
beans are hulled by machinery, al
though some of them are hand picked
and bring little bit more money.
Would it not pay our Florida farm
ers to try the growing of these beans?
1t certainly would add to our diversifi-
cation of crops and a crop that would
be worth more money than any other
crop now grown in the state. It is
hoped that some of our Florida farm
ers will try little patch of them any
how, and see what they will do. It is
said that a few farmers have tried
them and found that they do nicely,
and there is no reason why they should
not become staple crop in this state.
They are non-perishable and can be
harvested and hulled at leisure.
