LIMA BEANS.

Lima beans should not be planted
until the ground is thoroughly warmed
up, al they are q hcat-loving crop and
the seed will rot II planted when the
ground Is cold. Most gardeners pre-
fer the pole varieties, as they yield
better than the bush varieties and are
superior to the bush varieties In many
other respects. One marked ndvGn-
tage OF the pole beans Is that they may
be planted around the fence. utilizing
the fence MS a support for the vines.
In this manner a crop Of beans can
be secured with the use of a minimum
amount Of spacing.
When planted in rows in the gnr-
den, pole lima beans nrc usually plant
ed In hills 3 to 4 feet apart md sup
ported on poles or q string and wire
trellls.
The bush limas are usually drilled
In w some 3h feet apart for horse
cultivation, Or slightly closer for hand
cultivation. The lima beans are a full
season crop, that is, they occupy The
ground for the entire growing season.
and a sufficient amount should be
planted to provide for the needs OF the
family for the entire season. Any SUR
plus not used green may be allowed to
dry on the. vines. picked and stored
for winter use.
Lima beans constitute one OF the
most satisfactory crops for growing
for winters use. MS the only care ne
cessary to save them is to pick the ripe
pods, dry them thoroughly md shell
the beans. In the northern portion of
the country where lima beans do not
thrive. pole beans Of the Lazy Wife
variety will give satisfaction.

sandy loan. There Is little possibil-
ny OF having the ground too rich, and
iiDerai applications OF partly rotted
Darnyard mi should be made be-
Iore the plants are set. The seeds OF
asparagus may be sOwn during the
spring In rows where the plants are to
remain. and the seedlings thinned to
stan Il feet apart in rows.
II Is usually more satisfactory to
purchase ~twO-year-old roots, as con.
Siderable time Is saved in this way.
As the asparagus bed Is a permanent
feature Of the garden, It should be 10
Gated accordingly. Before setting the
plants the soil should be loosened very
deeply. either by subsoil blowing or by
deep spading. It Is a good plan to re-
move the top soil and spade manure
into the subsOil to q depth Of IA or 16
inches. The plants may be set in
rows for horse cultivation or In beds.
II In rows they should be set IA inches
apart, with the rows 3h feet apart.
II In beds, n foot apart each way Is
the proper distance to set the plants.
In setting the plants the crowns should
be covered 4 or 5 inches deep.
In the North the plants should re-
ceive q mulch of 4 or 5 inches Of ma
nnre In winter. In the South the
mulch is o necessary. but the plants
should receive n coa OF manur or an
application Of fertilizer. preferably In
autumn.
No shoots should be removed during
the first year the plants are set in the
permanent bed, and the period Of cut
ting should be short during the second
year.

IseA-bloolcd men Of courage are on
the firing llne-and there are many
anemic, weak, discouraged men and
women left at home.
At this time Of the year most people
suffer from q condition often called
Spring Fever. They feel tired, worn
out, before the day Is half thru. They
may have frequent headaches and
sometimes "pimply" or pale skin.
Bloodless people, thin. anemic peo-
pie, those with pale checks and lips,
who have q poor appetite and feel that
tired, worn or feyerish condition in the
springtime of the year, should try the
refreshing tonic powers Of a good al
terative and blood purifier. Such a one
Is extracted from Blood root, Golden
Seal and Stone root, Queens root and
Oregon Grape root, made up with
chemically pure glycerine and without
the use Of alcohol. This can be OBJ
tanned In ready-to-use tablet form In
sixty-cent Walls, as druggists have sold
It for fifty years as Doctor Pierce's
Golden Medica, Discovery. It Is q
standard remedy that a be obtained
In tablet or liquid form.
A good purge should be taken once
a week wen by persons who have q
movement daily, In order to eliminate
matter which may remain and q
condition Of auto-intoxicatiOn, poison
ing the whole system. To clean the
system at least once q week Is to prac-
tice health measures. There Is nothing
so good for this purpose as tiny pills
made up Of the May-apple, leaves Of
aloe and jalap, and sold by almost
oil druggists In this country as Doctor
Picrce's Pleasant Pellets, su~gar-coated.

koHL.RAel.

The edible portion OF the kohl-rabi
Is the thickened stem. It Is closely re-
lated to cabbage and cauliflower. 1t
should be started In the hotbed or win
dow box and set in the open ground
about the time Of the last frost. The
method Of planting and the cultivation
Is similar to that practiced for cab
bage. It can be planted in the open
at the same time. Early sowings are
made. and II thinned to 4 to 6 inches
apart the plants will soon grow to
edible size under favorable weather
conditions. This plant should receive
much consideration than usually
Is given It. It Is really a poor mans
caulilower.

CoLLARps.

The culture and uses of collards are
the same as for cabbage. The plants
should be started In very early spring
and set out as soon as the ground Is
In condition. They Withstand the heat
better than cabbage and are much
used In the southern portion Of the
country. Collards do not form q true
head. but Instead a loose rosette Of
leaves. which, when blanched, are
very tender and Of delicate flavor.
No southern garden Is complete
without this plant. Too often, how.
ever, 1t has constituted the sum total
IN the shape Of garden supplies. Use
1t, but don't abuse 1t.

PEPPERS.

Plant the seeds Of peppers in the
hOtbed about six weeks to two months
before time to set them In the open
ground. They should be transplanted
at least nee and should not be set In
the open until the ground Is thorough
" warm. When grown In the garden
the large bull-nOsed types should be
placed In rows 3 feet apart with the
plants from IS to II inches apart In
rows. Frequent shallow cultivation
should be given, and the plants will
continue to bear until frost kills them.
