JOHN BORDNER GIVES
TALK ON GARDENING

John Bordner, ST. Joseph county
agriculturist agent, gave an address
at a meeting of the home econOm-
les department of the Mishawaka
Woman's club held in the library
rooms Monday evening. Mr.. Bord-
ner spoke on Gardening" In the
course OF his remarks he impressed
upon his audience these two facts:
1T is important 10 grow all the
foods needed for home consumption
in the community as transportation
is so Congested that the shipping OF
perishable foods is entirely out Of
the question. IL is also important
10 prepare the garden spot thor
oughly, <ertilize well and plant the
staples which can be canned and
stored away for the winter. II is
quite evident that the production II
food will be probably normal, on
account Of the shortage in labor
and the difficulty OF getting men
10 work on the farms TO take the
place of those already gone TO the
ranks" He further stated that the
best way one can convert all Of his
surplus energy, and assist in win
ming the war, is to get into the
game. get busy. and not only do
his bit, but a larger part.

POPE WOULD END
RAIDS ON CITIES
Benedict LamentS Fact That
He Cannot Secure Pact
From BelIigerentS.

ROME, Saturday, March lex
PLANTATION was given today at the
office Of the papal secretary of state
of the report that Pope Benedict
was attempting to induce the bel
ligerents to cease the air raids upon
cities. Monsignor Cerretti, assistant
papal secretary of state. said:
The holy father has frequently
condemned such acts by whOmso-
ever committed. having at various
times paved the way TO a john
agreement on this subject, but both
belligerents apparently have so far
been unable TO discover means for
limiting bombardments 70 the war
zones. on one hand the Austro-
Germans nave claimed that air raids
were of direct value in that they
lowered the morale Of cities which
were attacked On the other hand
the allies insist on reprisals, also
attacking military factories and
warehouses near open cities"
Monsignor Cerretti stated that
the holy father is daily engaged in
studying means of ending the war.
or at least limiting Its horrors. but
so far has not found arguments
powerful enough to influence the
Oelligerents 10 cease air raiding.
