COLD WEATHER
DAMAGES CROPS
Recent Freezing Makes Re-
planting of Gardens Necessary
in Many Districts

Washington, ID. c., March S.-The
damage done to garden crops by the
recent widespread freeze has made it
necessary for many owners either to
replant gardens or to delay planting
beyond the usual time. These garden
ers whose outdoor schedules have been
upset are under thenecesslty of doing
everything they can to hasten their
crops. The following suggestions re-
garding the principles and practice
of gardening, the horticultural spe-
cialists of the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture believe, will be
timely and helpful both to these gard
eners and to others in localities where
the planting season naturally is later.
The gardener who merely wishes
to raise vegetables for his own family
will do well, especially this year, to
choose thecrops he will grow from
those which previously have done best
in his special locality. The market
gardener must bear this fact in mind,
but also must study the market and
anticipate its usual demand and de-
termine as far as he can how this de-
mand will be affected by any unto
ward weather conditions which may
have occurred in his section.
Essentials of Gardening
The essentials for successful gard
ening on aSmall or large scale are soil,
water and cultivation. Much depends
also on the grower, theseason, and the
crops selected.
The soil is the storehouse of 4 liant
food. The garden, therefore, should
contain humus or rotted material in
large quantities. The gardener should
remember that about so per cent. of
ordinary earth is not soil at all, but
consists of air and water.
Importance of Seed Bed
The conservation of soil moisture is
the most important reason for cult
waiting crops. The two other principal
things accomplished by cultivation
are the killing of weeds which draw
moisture and plant food from the
crops, and the aeration of the soil.
Too much stress cannot belaid on
the preparation of a good seed bed. A
seed bed of fine tilth-made SO by
deep plowing, careful narrowing, and
fining of the SOILS the foundation
of good gardening. 1t is essential for
the proper termination and growth OF
young plants. The soil must be friable
and free from clods. A clod can hold
no plant food in solution, the only
form in which tits available for the
plant. Good soil and fine tilth insure
an excellent root system to plants.
The plant food for the garden
should be carefully selected. Nitrogen
which stimulates leaf growth, is best
supplied by turning under rich, we'll
rotted or composted manure, or rot
ting vegetable matter. Nitrogen also
is supplied in such fertilizers as nj
trate of soda and sulphate of ammo
mia, as well as in bonemeal and tank
age.
Potash tends to hasten the matur-
ity of the plant, butalso hasa tendency
to counteract thework of nitrogen. Or
this account those not experienced in
! using potash will find sulphate of pot.
ash better, or at least safer in mos
cases, than the muriate. On account o.
| the disturbed commercial conditions
one of the most available sources o.
potash is hardwood ashes.

Bowling has been one of the most
prominent activities at the Boyd Me-
mortal Hall this season and a great
deal of interest has been shown.
Competition is close and some fine
averages have been made by the
players and teams.
John Santo, of the Hick-A-Thrift
team, is leading in individual scoring,
with an average of 156. He is hard
pressed, however, by Irwin, one of his
own teammates; Myers, McCormicks; /;
Blessing, McCormicks, and Miller, In
dependents, all of whom have an av-
erage of 154. Mccormick, McCor-
micks, and Hartwick of the same
team, are next with an average of
15S. The players are all closely
punched.
Hard Fight for First Place
The Hick-A-Thrifts and the Nc
Cormicks are lighting hard for first
place in the league race, while the
Palmer team is in third place.
B. Cocklin holds honors in the
highest one game score with total
of 2l7 pins. He also holds honors in
the highest three game score, with 4
total of 5SS pins. The Palmer team
takes the credit of rolling the high
total of 1851 pins and the Hick-A-
Thrift team rolled the highest one
game team score, with S44 pins.

COURSE
IN MT. FARMING
Kentucky College Adds New
Course to It's Curri-
culum

Berea, Ky, March SIN view of
the food shortage throughout the
country Berea College, in the great
mountain region of the South, is ma
king a special effort to develop the
surrounding mountain land. Berea's
chief endeavor is being made through
a two-year course in mountain agri-
culture, the graduates of which are
proving the best farm demonstrat-
ors" in government service.
The educational work which Berea
is doing along this line is probably
unique among college activities. Ac-
cording to President Frost the region
is not naturally one to be thought of
for great supplies. lie says, Perhaps
not more than one-fourth of it's area
can ever be plowed. Eut as a source
OF food, the region must be cultivated.
1t is the man who has poor land who
needs agricultural instruction most"
President Frost states that some of
the cities of Kentucky and North
Carolina most influenced by Berea are
already showing decided progress
along these lines.

ment of the author of the bill, 1t is

Ohio. Pennsylvania, New Jersey and
several of the Middle and Western
States have for many years been par
ticularly slow in completing their re-
turns, and it is such conditions that
have handicapped The Associated Press
in announcing the definite results of
presidential elections on the night of
election day. The seriousness of such
delays as were encountered last No
vember, when various newspapers an
nounced the result before IL was
known. has impressed itself upon Gov
ernor Cox, of Ohio. In an address be-
fore the members OF The Associated
Dailies at Columbus recently the Gov
ernor suggested an adoption of a law
similar to that of Kansas so that the
general result might be known early in
the evening of election day, instead of,
as he said, about Christmas time"

HARRISBURG. March 21-The Penrose
leaders in the Legislature are planning to

"rhe Legislature should he able to pass

"rhe Legislature should not adjourn sine
