The Liberty Loan Campaign

The patriotic cooperation of all citizens IS
needed not only to make the opening rally
success but also to make possible the under
writing of the Liberty Loan allotment for Wayne
county.
The best laid plans of public spirited men and
women will fail if the citizens of the community
do not back them to the limit. In this crisis,
the cooperative effort of every one is essentially
necessary.
Wayne county has oversubscribed It's allot-
ment for the previous issues and made an ex-
ceent showing in the Red Cross and Y. M. Z. "A.
drives. This record will be maintained If every
one believes that he personally is responsible Tor
the success of the movement.
Our country is calling for the assistance OF
every man, woman and child The third Liberty
loan ought to be oversubscribed.

HOWJ@ @GROW
W ONIONS 1

Onions can be produced on almost
any good garden soil. and constitute
one Of the standard crops found in al
most every garden. The usual plan In
the home garden is to plant sets in
rows far enough apart to suit the
method of cultivation to be followed.
The sets need not be more than 2 or
inches apart in the rows.
Onion sets may be planted as soon
as the ground can be worked and be-
fore frosts are over. Some kinds may
be planted in the autumn. The potato
or multiplier onion can be planted
from sets in the autumn and will pro-
duce excellent early green onions.
Onions may be grown from seed
either by starting the seed in the hot
bed and transplanting to the open
ground or by drilling in rows directly
in the garden. With good soil and
proper care it is possible to produce
good-sized bulbs from seed In single
season.
Onions require frequent shallow
cultivation, and it may be necessary

General Pershing's offer sets aside rumors
