to raise a single crop on each plot Of
land at their disposal, but 1t Is quite
possible to grow two or three crops
OF some vegetables In mi season.
A primary consideration In arrang.
Ing the garden Is the kind Of cultiva-
ton to be employed. Where the work
Is to be done mainly by means Of
h0rse-drawn tools the arrangement
should be such as to give the longest
possible rows and a straight outline
should be followed. The garden
Should be free from paths across the
rows and turning spaces should be
provided at the ends. For hand cul.

the arrangement can be quite differ.
ent, as the garden may be laid out In
sections with transverse walks and
the rows can he much closer for most
crops.
Remember Early Vegetables.
1t Is also important to consider the
location of permanent crops such as
asparagus and rhubarb. If any of the
small fruits such as raspberries, u
rants and gooseberries are to be
planted within the garden Enclosure
they should be included with the per.
fnanent crops. The location and area
for the hOtbed, cold-frame or seeded
should be decided upon, although
these may be shifted to some cOnven.
lent place outside the garden.
Where there Is great variety In the
composition of the soil in different
parts of the garden it will be advis.
able to note this when arranging fol
the location Of the various crops.
Such crops us celery, onions and late
cabbage should be planted in land
that Is not too low and moist. II part
of the soil Is high, warm and dry, that
Is the proper location for early crops
and those that need u quick, warm
soil.
Points to Consider.
Remember these points In planning
your garden:
A gentle slope toward the south OF
southeast is most desirable for the
production of early crops. 1t Is an
advantage to have protection on the
north and northeast by either a hill,
a group of trees or hedge, buildings,
a tight board fence or a stone wall
to break the force Of the wind.
The land should have sufficient
drainage for surplus water to run of
during heavy rains, but the fall should
not be SO great that the soil will be
washed. Fill up holes in which water
will accumulate. Avoid banks Of a
creek or stream liable to overflow.
A good fence around the garden plot
is almost Indispensable to keep out
damaging animals.
The garden should be as near the
kitchen as possible so that the work

What Foijows Sorrow.

The most puzzling question which
comes to Christian people al a time
of great sorrow is, Why? There Is
little use in telling us that we ought
not to ask II. 1t is true we may not
be able to find a full answer; yet
there is more answer than we find,
for most of us look for 1t in the
wrong place. We look back to find
what precedes our experience to learn
the reason which Cod had in letting
US have it. The best reason for Gods
greatest deeds, SO far as we know
them, lie after the deeds themselves.
Most of us will find the best answer
to our question by looking forward.
II is not so much what has preceded
the SORROW as what shall follow 1t;
not what the sorrow follows, but what
shall follow the sorrow.

Garden Space Valuable.

Just what vegetables are to be grown
depends, of course, upon the individual
tastes of the family. In general, the
aim Of the home gardener should be
to raise vegetables in which freshness
is an important quality. Peas, string
beans, Lima beans. asparagus and
sweet corn. for example, lose much II

ately after they are picked. In the

py a large area in proportion to their
yield and In a small garden consume
valuable space which, in most cases,
could be used more proftably. In Che
case Of potatoes, however, 1t also
should be noted that they are easily
stored and are an extremely good
staple crop, and many gardeners will
find it to advantage to plant as much
ground to potatoes al possible after
sufficient space has been allotted to
the other garden crops.

Corduroy Robes.

A good warm bathrobe is a first ne
cessity if one lives in a country or a
suburban Ohouse, where the furnace
does not always give adequate service
early in the day.
And, pretty as flowing elbow sleeves
and wide, t~urned-down collars are in
theory a garment that protects the
arms clear to the wrists and that snug
giles up closely about the throat is de-
sirable for those chilly mornings.
A very good corduroy robe is called
the trench robe. 1t has straight lines
and is double-breasted with a round,
rundown collar that ONE well up
about the throat, and long coat sleeves
with turned back cuffs. Slanting pock-
cts are set at the hip, and there is a
straight buckled belt at the waist.

cheaper kind, near at hand where a

the paper burned saving the use of II

Spring clothespins are handy to use
in the kitchen for holding a cloth
while straining fat or other things.
Fasten them through the cloth to the
side of the vessel.
Keep the cellar stairs scrubbed so
that skirts will not be soiled in going
down stairs. Another safety device is
painting the bottom stair white II the
cellar is dark, to save falling.
A little oil or tallOw rubbed on the

banning IL preparing.


Plan your home garden in advance.
Make a diagram of the available
space; allot the ground to the vege-
tables you want to grow. Prepare to
make your garden work until frost
next fall. That Is advice to home
gardener by hortlculturists of the
United States Department Of Agricul-
ture.
Interest in the planning all men,
beers Of the family, especially the chill
dren who, by being given a partner
ship now, will know their duties when
the time comes. Read such garden
ing publications as are available.
Write to the Department Of Agrlcul-
ture for a home gardening bulletin.
In making a diagram of the garden
1t is well to use tough paper, such as
heavy wrapping paper, which will
stand repeated handling out Of doors.
A fairly large scale should be adopt
ed so that full notes can be kept in
the spaces representing rows. If the
garden is fairly large OF abnormally
long the diagram may be made in sep
arate sections for the sake of con-
venience.
Plan for Homo Needs.
A typical plan Of this character is
shown In the illustration. This plan,
Of course, is Of use chiefly as an ex-
ample, and In most cases a different
arrangement will be necessary to meet
the conditions surrounding individual
garden spaces. On the plan the gar
dener may indicate the approximate
date when each Of his projected crops
is to be planted. No more space

to resemble lace. Dark brown, taupe
and gray are favored colors, sometimes
overwrought with white or black en-
broideries. The veil shapes are almost
as varied as the colors and patterns.
Some are square, others circular and
there are those that are oblong. In
deed, a good deal of pains has been
taken TO shape the veil so that it will
have an artistic relation to the hat
with which 1t will be ultimately worn.

very effective. The simmer Of 1t Is
obtained by some process similar to
the one used on the ribbons OF six
years ago.
The Thread Lace Dinner Gown.
The half decollete evening gown
continues as the dominant fashion.
We have not yet accepted 1t whole
heartedly in America, but a larger de-
gree of enthusiasm may be shown for
1t when the informal social life Of
spring and summer begins.
Black tulle, thread lace and lace
flOunces are constantly shown to the
American buyers In the new evening
gowns. The black tulle Is embrOider-
ed with roses and large, conspicuous
designs formed of silk thread and
beads. =
Thread lace Is revived in such II
fashion that one believes 1t was taken
from the shelves OF other years and
from the trunks Of other decades.
Palm Beach has already started to
wear Chantilly lace, and 1t Is more
than probable that America will go
in for II lace season.
