GARDEN SPACE MAY BE SAVED
How to BIanch Celery by Use OF Pa
per Made for Purpose.

When the plan Of banking with soil
Is used for blanching celery, the rows
must be so wide apart as to waste
much valuable land in small garden
areas. But by using paper sold in
rolls for the purpose and which Is
treated TO make it tough and moisture
proof, much garden space and time
may be saved, says q writer In Farm
and Fireside.
Celery set with the intention Of u.s.
ing paper for blanching need be only
far enough between rows to allow
convenient cultivation with wheel hoe,
and two rows can be set not over six
or eight inches apart, with spaces 10
to 10 inches on each side of the double
rows. When ready for blanching, the
paper can be quickly stretched each
side Of the double row. The roll is I'M
wound along one side and back the
opposite side Of the double rows, thus
requiring 10 cutring Of the roll. While
one person stretches the paper and
holds IL in place, another thrusts the
long wire staples, made like narrow
croquet arches, over the double rows
TO hold the paper snugly up in place.
If the right kind Of paper can be
procured and Is carefully rolled and
saved when the crop Is harvested, 1t
can be used several seasons.

RAIN DROPS FHOzEN IN AIR
How Hail Is Formed by Action Of Con.
fIicting Currents.

Limiting the observations to such
compound hail-stones as are the most
destructive, and are produced during
a tornado or violent thunderstorm, the
following theory has been advanced
as to how they are formed:
When the winds gyrate rapidly round
an axis, more or less inclined to the
earth the space at and about the axis
is rarified When air charged with
vapor is drawn INTO this rarified space
it may be condensed into cloud or rain,
or, at greater elevation, into snow.
Now, supposing the rain formed In
the lower region to be drawn up by the
ascending current into the snowy re-
gion, and so held for short space,
the drops will be frozen, and then, If
propelled beyond the gyrations, will
fall to the ground as shower of oca!-
nary hail.
But If in the descent they are again
drawn in by the infowing current,
they will be again carried up into the
cold region and so acquire another
coating of ice. In this way the globule
may make a number Of ascents and
descents and acquire fresh coating
each time.

TIMEs-REPuBLcAN. MARsHALLTowN IOWA, MAY 10 1918

than 10 to 75 hogs OF IFS to 225 pounds
should be put in a car. A safe load
OF 250-pound hogs should not run over
70 to ~ head. A safe load for 800
pound hogs is around 60 head. A safe
load of a25 to $50 pound hogs is so to
90 head. If So head of the heavier hogs
were loaded, however 1t would be tak-
ing chances.
Not all hogs Of the same weight are
equally fat. This must be kept In
mind. In making calculations the diff
ference in size 'of cars must also be
considered. The old cars are "a feet
and the new cars 40 feet long, with
corresponding differences in capacity.
The way hogs are handled before
being loaded at the shipping point has
q good deal to do with the way they
come thru. One of the most dangerous
things is to hurry them at any point
from the farm to the car Very fat
hogs seem fairly to melt in the wagon
when hurried over the road in hot
weather At the first sign that they
arc warm. stop in the shade and wet
down the hogs and the bed.
Producers who do not ship their
own hogs can operate with their
shipper In this way to the great bene-
fit of all concerned Handling of hogs
with n view of getting them in the
cars in good shape for the trip over
the rails may also save loss in the
wagon on the way to the town.
Bedding down the cars properly goes
a long way in getting the load to mar
ket without loss Wheat straw
thoroughly wetted down is very salts
afctory. II is less heating than oat
straw. Nothing is as good as sand where
the results have not been satisfactory.
Experienced shippers are very care
full of these points and it is well for
less experienced shippers to profit by
their example-Drovers Journal.

CHARGES BY GENERAL

Severe Rebuke For Former Premier
AsquitI1-Cheers For Lloyd George
When Vote is ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
Maurice May Be Forced to Stand
Tria! Before Military Court.

London. May 1o-PFmier David
Lloyd George won complete victory
in the house Of commons last evening
in his fight to preserve his veracity and
that of his chancellor. A. Bonar Law,
from attacks by Herbert Asquth and
General Maurice.
The house, by a vote of 29S to 1906
nearly to rejected a motion by
Mr.. Asquith that the house investi-
gate charges by General Maurice that
the British ministry had issued mis-
leading statements on the strength of
the British army.
| The Irish nationalsts, by unanimous
consent. remained absent from the
session.
The vote was a greater defeat for
! former Premier Asquith than it was
victory for Lloyd George, for the
premier, in the course of a character
istically impassioned speech in defense
of his government, told the commons
that if it passed the motion Mr.. Asquith
would again be responsible for the con-
duct of the war
Stirred by the imminence of cab
met crisis, the people of London
crowded the public galleries long be-
fore the debate opened. The diplomatic
and peers galleries also were thronged.
House Cheers Premier.
There was little doubt during the day
that the house would uphold the pre-
mer He was loudly cheered when he
arose to speak, following Mr.. Asquith's
address. When he finished and before
TIC ,:c.e was taken the members again
cheered him. -
When the vote turning down the
Asquith motion was announced. the
premier once more received an ovation
as he left the chamber.
Altho great pressure had been
brought to'bear upon Mr.. AsQuith to
withdraw his motion. he stood firm.
Even the declaration by Sir Edward
Carson that the nation was ION the
eve Of the crisis of the war" failed
to move the former premier. and his
motion went to vote.
Maurice May Be Court MartiaIed.
The Evening News declares that it
understands General Maurice, former
director OF military operations. will be
court martialed because of his accusa-
tions against Lloyd George and Bonar

Ajdjno the Memory.

Concentration and practice are the
chief needs in memorizing poetry and
dramatic lines. Competition seems to
be the best way to stimulate concen-
tration in children if they are not suf-
fering from nervous troubles, and
youngsters will find 1t most interest
ing to do these memory feats, against
time. A race to learn poem may be
as interesting as a hundred-yard dash.
Adding columns of figures against
time Is not only interesting but ex-
ceedingly practical.

Loading Hogs for the Market.

The time of the year is at hand
| when crowding hogs in a car Is liable
TO cause the shipper no small loss.
Overloa ding hogs is a common mistake
that is made as warm weather APP
proaches. 1t is made not only by men
who are not accustomed 70 shipping
their own stock, but every once in q
while a regular shipper arrives with
a load in bad condition.
While it is frequently the case when
loading of getting several hogs more
in the car than good judgment would
lead one to do or leaving the hoss be-
hind, light hogs can often be kept back
without great inconvenience 1t is
surely better TO have a live hog and
some extra work at one end OF TIC line
than dead hog and the shipping
charges at the other.
The average hog coming to the Chi
cago market at this time is worth
around $40 These hogs, however, are
not the ones to suffer most from over
loading. 1t is the heavier hogs that
suffer from hot spells and crowdins.
and the loss is therefore greater than
the figure given.
II is safe to say that the bulk Of
hogs which die in the car as result
of crowding weigh 800 pounds and
over. Such animals mean a loss to the
grower or whoever ships them OF $50
to $50 per hog. 1t is hardly worth
while to take chances under such con-
dItions
The average load OF hogs at this
tine runs from 70 to % hogs. Loads
OF 1925 pound hogs run from 10
to so. and now and then a load will
contain as many as IS and % head.
The latter figures refer to the lishtest
weights.
While light hogs do not spffer very
much from warm weather and crowd
ing there is some loss III these loads
