become established thin to or s. The
hills should be 4 or feet apart for
the pole varieties and 2 or feet apart

is q good plan to make up the hill

When planting beans Of any kind,
the seed should not be covered to a

 Fashion leaders, however, deny this is the reason. They say silk must be conserved, hence half hose. The dictators did not attempt to square their conseryation plan with advice from the Federal government urging the free use of silk in order to conserve the wool supply.
 Another development of the day was the announcement that ladies B. V. D's would be shy the custo mary lace and ribbons, but the de signers hasten to say they will be more attractive for the reason they will be made of bright colors.
