Plan your home garden in advance.
Make 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
gardeners by horticulturists of the
u. S. Department. of Agriculture.
Interest in it all members o: the
family, especially the children who,
by pe.ng given partnership now, Will
know their duties when the time
comes. Read such gardening pUh!lca-
tons as are available. Write to the
Department of Agriculture for home
gardening bulletin.
In making a diagram of the garden
it 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 or aDrormally
long the diagram may be made III
separate sections for the sake o: con-
venience. ~ <

Points TO Consider.

Remember these points II planning
your garden:
A gentle slope toward the south or
southeast. is most desirable for the
production Of early crops. 1t is an
advantage to have protection on the
north and northeast by either hill,
a group of trees OF hedge, buildings,
tight board fence or a stone wall
to break the force of the wind.
The lard should have sufficient
drainage tor surplus water TO run
off 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 creek or stream liable to over
flow.
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
Of caring for the crops may be done
at odd times and so that the regc-
tables are quickly available to the
housewife.

MORE FOR THE GRAND JURY.

Five more candidates for the grand
Jury, individuals who had violated
the Mapp law, were given their ere
dentials this morning by the Police
Court. Two of this species of law
breakers were captured by Prohibi-
ton Inspector Payne, and the others
by the regular policemen, assisted IN
one case by mennber of military
guard.
There are now about twenty per-
sons in Jail in this city who will be
arraigned before a special grand jury
of the Corporation Court next month
to answer the charge of violating the
prohibition law.
Three men were before the Police
Court this morning to answer the
charg of being drunk. They were
fined the prescribed amount.
In one of the cases for violating the
prohibition law youth purchased
from colored woman quart bottle
of whisky for $3.50 Upon being Ques-
toned he stated that whiskey was
selling at fifty cent a drink in Alex
andria. The woman and her husband
were held for the grand jury.
The regular grand jury term of the
Corporation Court will be held in
June, but during the past few months
it has been necessary to summon
special juries in order to dispose of
the whisky cases. =

APING NAPOLEON.

i When Napoleon Bonaparte was con-
Quoting his Italian campaign he gave
out that it was his intention to cross
the Alps. The Corsican intended to
do this, but supposed his enemies
would net believe that he contem-
plated any such movement, but would
be watching Tor his sudden appear
ance elsewhere He did cross the Alps,
however, to the great disappointment
Of his fees.
Tee Kaiser for weeks had been tell
ing the world it was his purpose to
start the greatest military drive in
history upon the western front. That
was his real intention, but he sup
posed that by advertising his purpose
the allies would discredit his as$er-
ton and not be prepared for his as
saults.. But the French, British and
Americans kept their powder dry and
ready for the Teutons. They are now
engaged in the most titanic battle
that has ever occurred on this planet.
We are told that the Germans are US
inc cannon which send shells over
seventy miles into Paris.
Official French a1v!ces say that
,ninety-seven German divisions-ap-
proximately 100000 men - have
been employed in the great offensive.
According to these dispatches the
gain attained by the Teutons is not
more than seven k.lometers or about
-four and half miles.
Officers Of the entente armies on
duty say that if the latter figures are
correct the German offensive has not
brought forth a success Officials OF
the British Embassy declare that it
these figures stand a great victory has
been. scored by the British and French
arms.
Other advices which lead the Brit
ish into an almost jubilant frame of
mind were the brief statement of Gen.
Haig Yesterday that the positions re-
manned unchanged, that the line had
not been broken.
The principal fact in the situation is
the enormous slaughte" of Germans
that the present operations make in
cvitable. 1t would even be strategic
ally worth while for the British to
make other small retirementS along
the front if by this means linden
burg could be enticed into continuing
the killing o. his men.
Concentration was ordered at st.
Quentin by Hindenburg so that Il
drifting victory might be shown to the
German people III place OF the eN-
pvcted Cambria success.
The German offensive, says the
War Departments weekly communi-
que proves that the German militar-
lists, no longer able to control the Ger
man people by political maneuvcr.
have been forced to attempt a gigant-
ic feat of arms to maintain their domi-
nation.

Plan for Home Needs.

A typical plan of this character is
shown in the Illustration. This plan,
Of course, is Of use chiefly as an en-
ample, and in most cases a different
arrangement will be necessary to
meet the conditions surrounding in
dividual, garden spaces On the plan
the gardener may indicate the ap-
proximate date. when each Of his prof.
ected crops is to be planted. No more
space should be allotted to each than
is needed to furnish q sufficient guam
tity of the vegetable for family CON
sumption or FOR other known needs.
Make the garden work all summer.
Make your plans so that when one
crop is ready for the table or for cam
mig another vegetable can be planted
between the old row and new plant
ings can take the space vacated.
lIany home gardeners seem content
to raise single crop on each plot OF
land at their disposal, but 1t Is quite
possible to grow two OF three crops
of some vegetables in one 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
horse-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 cultivation
(thc method that probably will be
used by most home gardeners the ar
rangement can be quite different, as
the garden may be laid out in sec
tons with transverse walks and the
rows can be much closer for most
crops.
