Timely Hints for the Home Gardener
(soi Tips to the Home oardener.)

Washington. d. c.. March 26. -
Practically all truck crops do better on
a sandy loan soil than on one that
Is sticky and heavy. Larger sized
crops. however. such as cabbage,
tomatoes. beans. and peas, will do well
on heavy soil provided it contains the
necessary vegetable matter.
The soil in most backyard gardens
is distinctly heavy. 1t will help the
soil greatly il the owner works into
1t good amount of finely sifted coal
ashes free from all cinders. Coal ashes
are used largely for the physical effect
in breaking up compact heavy soil.
Such ashes do not take the place of
fertilizer
Plentiful use of well-rotted manure
lis still more beneficial in breaking up
heavy soil because this improves the
texture and adds fertilizing material.
Marry garden soils are sour. To
Offset acidity and also to improve the
physical properties of the soil the
garden specialists recommended the
use Of lime. Burnt lime should be ap-
piled at the rate OF 1000 pounds to
the acre or Stacked lime at the rate
of about 1900 pounds per acre. A
garden plot 50x100 feet is approx
mately one-ninth of an acre.
To apply the lime. broadcast 1t and
mix 1t freely with the surface soil by
narrowing or raling. Lime should be
applied before the crops are set out or
planted and should not be applied at
the same time that fertilizer or
manure is put on.
The Fargo forum and daily republican. [volume] (Fargo, N.D.) 1894-1957, 1917-03-26

Manure will greatly improve land. If
well-rotted manure is not available, it
may be advisable to use a complete
chemical fertilizer. Apply at the rate
of 500 to 1000 pounds per acre a mix
ture containing to 4 per cent nitro
gen. per cent phosphoric acid, / to 2
per cent potash. The amateur
gardener will find it easier to use
ready1mixed fertilizer, which can be
obtained from any reliable dealer.
Sunlight Necessary for a Garden,
No amount OF fertilizer. watering,
and cultivation will make up for the
absence of sunlight in garden. Home
gardeners before attempting for the
first time to use a back yard or other
space should consider carefully how
many hours a day any part of the
yard is in shadow from buildings
fences. or trees. At least Ave hours
Of sunlight day is necessary for a
successful garden. The more sun
light they get the better it is for most
vegetables. For this reason 1t is bad
practice to put plants OF low habit
between tall growing plants which
will shade them for the greater part
Of the day. AS rule. foliage crops
fairly well in partial shade. but even
these must have sunshine or hours
a day. In laying out the garden,
therefore. use shadier parts for such
plants and reserve the sunny spaces
for those which must have plenty OF
sunlight to grow and fruit properly.

LABOR AND The w.

Detroit News: The Chicago Fedora
ton of Labor refused to issue Gre
dentials to representatives of the l.
w. w. who wished to solicit funds for
the defense of imprisoned members
in Everett, Wash. The president of the
federation held that the L w. w. had
injured the cause of organized labor
repeatedly and deserved no aid.
The /. w. w. problem is not acute
in this part of the country because
we do not depend to any extent on
casual, seasonal and drifting labor.
Federal investigations have shown
plainly the wrongs to which the great,
unorganized army Of workers have
been subjected. This army is abso-
lately necessary to the prosperity of
the country, yet its members have
been the victims of INSCRIPTIONS Ia
Dor workers, have been deceived and
oppressed. have seldom been able to
make anything better thans an ex-
tremeIy precarious livelihood. and in
the end. have become broken and un-
desirable. unwelcome anywhere save
in city slums.
Organized labor has ignored this
important class. but in that respect
organized labor is not behind the gov
eminent. The I. w. W., with it's revo-
lutionary excuses, is phase-an out
growth-of the problem Of drifting Ia
bor So long as we have crops of
grain, fruit and hops: winter lumber
ing and ice harvesting; annual runs
OF salmon; railway and other rough
construction work. we shall have the
casual migrant laborer. His problem
is one that needs serious considera-
ton.

BETTER THAN CALOMEL
Thousands Have Discovered DR.

DR.. Edwards Olive Tabiets-the sub
stitute for calomei-are q mild but sure

almost instantaneous. They are the re-

calomel. His efforts to Danish it brought
out these little olive-coiored tablets.

good that calomei does, but have no bad
after effects. They don't injure the
teeth like strong liquids or calomel::
They take hold of the trouble and

A little garden in the back yard can
be made to produce many vegetables
and there will be the added advantage
that they can be served fresh. If the
space is big enough to pillow that will
be the easiest way of preparing 1t.
II the space is too small or inaccess-
ible for blowing the spade can be
used. If there is any rubbish it should
first be cleared away. If weeds have
been growing on the garden spot the
surface will be covered with weed
seed. If these are mixed with the soil
by blowing or spading there will be
an abundance Of weeds to fight. After
the garden has been plowed or spaded
the soil should be nellowed and firm
ed somewhat as plants can not grow
well in loose soil. The surface should,
however, be left loose. Such vegetables
as radishes, onions, peas. carrots, cab
bage, lettuce and beets can be planted
as soon as the ground can be made
