In Zones A. B, and c, constituting the extreme Southern portion of the United States, cabbage may be set in the autumn. This is also true of portions of Zones D and B. When set in spring, the plants should be started in the window box or in hotbeds some six weeks before the average date of the last killing frost in the particular locality. They may be set in the gar dens as soon as the ground is in con- dition. For horse cultivation the rows should be from 21z to feet apart and the plants from 12 to 20 inches apart in the rows. Cabbage acquires a rich warm soil for early maturing a loam constituting a good type of soil for the purpose. It is an excellent plan to put a shovelful of compost under each plant,
 Early cabbage must be used as soon as it reaches maturity, or the heads are liable to burst and be lost It is an excellent plan to grow early cab bage for summer kraut making, as it has been found that kraut may be made at the time that early cabbage natures and will keep successfully. It is much easier to produce early cab bage than the later varieties for this purpose.-U. s. Department of Agri- culture.

Y. M. c. A. MEETING.
Rev. J. w. Areson Addressed Men's Gathering at Association Building.


 Rev. J. w. Areson was the speaker at the mems rally at the Y. M. c. A. Sunday afternoon. His topic was Rolling Away the Stone" He spoke of the need of rolling away the stone of criticism of our government; that the little mean things said against the leaders at Washington were block ing the way more than most people think. This Is no time to speak of the democratic party or the republi
 can party, but to think in terms of our
 great government, and cooperate in every possible way. Then we should roll away the stones that are blocking in the industrial
 realm; strikes occurring are for the
 most part unreasonable, and those who are now receiving twice as much in
 wages as before the war, are insist ing or getting still more. These stones are blocking our early success.
 There are also the stones to be rolled away in the religious realm things in our own lives that are not right need to be eradicated, and we need to cultivate the Christian spirit even toward our enemies; it is very difficult to avoid the feeling of re- vense against the Germans because o1 what the army of that great nation has done and is doing. An aluminium
 medal hangs around the nee of every German soldier and it reads ''strike
 to kill, the iudbment day will not ask the reason" But public opinion will ask the reason, and for all of the aw- full deeds perpetrated by our enemies
 an account must be rendered, but we as Christians must maintain the spir- | it of the Christ of Easter time.

WEAvERs STRIKE AFTER
 GETTING 10 PER CENT. INCREASE
ungrateful Help Desert Employers al Adrore Woclen Mill,

Friday noon after notice had been posted giving an increase of 10 per cent. in the wages of the employees of the Admore Woolen company, to com mence April 9th, making a total in crease of wages of 53 per cent. the past year and bringing the wages up to very high standard, some of the spinners and weavers were dissatisfied and demanded more.
 They would not wait for adjustment as they had not organized any com mittee, consequently the rooms have been idle since.
 One of the owners, Emanuel Kaplan, and Supt. John H. Williams tried to adjust the matter, but it was postponed by the striking element until Mon- day.
 The sentiment of the people unwill- ing to strike was that the strikers were to be considered as pro- Germans willing to help Germany win the war, by refusing to carry out the work here needed to produce the cloth tc clothe the American soldiers, much o1 which is needed and which is made al no prof at present by the manufac- turers, who have endeavored to dc their utmost for the help since taking 1 over the plant.

APPEALS TO BRITISH
 SUBJECTS TO ENLIST. Men Are Badly Needed for Great
 Britain's Army,

Lieut.. Col. F. c. Janieson, com manding the eastern division of the British and Canadian recruiting mis- sion, has sent out an urgent appeal for 5000 volunteers from New Eng land. He says in his appeal:
 We cannot expect peace on earth without the support of the men that are so badly needed at this time and of the employers of British subjects we ask cooperation in urging these men to come forward without any fur ther persuasion.
 The men are thoroughly examined at headquarters, 191 Church street, New Haven, under command of Lieut.. J. J Todd and are sent from there to Canada for training.
 The mission does not consider it fair to have so many Britishers being SUD- ported by their employers under the excuse of government orders" Were it not for Great Britain and her col onies many of the factories would not be running today.

Poisons which will kill by contact or substances which envelop and smother the pests are, therefore, employed against the sucking insects The principal remedies of this sort are nicotine sulphate solutions, fish oil and other soap solutions, and kero- sene-soap emulsion.

 The insects most likely to appear in the vegetables garden are listed in the accompanying table.
 Gardeners desiring additional infor-. nation in regard to insects affecting vegetble gardens should apply direct to the Bureau of Entomology, United States Department of Agriculture, or to the horticultural specialists of the Department. but it should be under stood that there is no publication cov- ering the entire subject. Farmers Bull letin 856 Control of Diseases and In- sects Enemies of ths Home Vege. table Garden" treats of many plant foes and will be sent free upon ap- plication to the Department Speci- mems of insects, with some account of food plants and ravages, if sent with inquiries, are of great value, wherever there is any doubt as to the name of character of the insect The gardener should remember that many plant diseases and insects exist in the garden from year to year. At the end of the growing season, there fore. the garden should be carefully cleaned or rubbish and the stems of plants, leaves, ant other remnants. Prompt burning of the rubbish is sure 1 to destroy many disease spores and many insects which may be present.
