 AS EFFICIENT AS MEN

MANCHESTER England. July 24.- Managers of shell manufactures reckon that it requires three women, because of their lighter physique, to do the work of two men.

Fatal to Neglect Garden,

Neglect of the garden during the hot
weather is fatal to a good crop, says
W. T.. Lommel of Purdue university,
assistant county agent leader, in
charge of garden work. More work in
the garden is necessary now than at
any other time of the year, If full
value from earlier efforts is expected.
Enthusiasm of the war gardeners must
continue till frost.
vegetables require moisture and
food for their proper development, and
the food is rot available for plant use
u water Is not present in the SOIL" said
Mr.. Lommel. "A good supply Of soil
moisture in the garden, therefore, is
of vital Importance. In watering, soak
The soil thoroughly. as frequent light
Sprinklings do more harm than good.
Seeds which are planted during hot
dry weather especially need artificial
watering. as do the young plants"

Don't Let Weeds Get Started.

If the garden is not neglected too
long it can be rehabilitated again to
some extent, but this means a long,
hard job, which is not q pleasant thing
in hot weather. On the other hand, if
q little judicious work is done at fire.
quent intervals the weeds and pests
can be kept down-and so the garden
kept up-without burdensome effort.
Never let the weeds grow tall. Kill
them with some kind of cultivating
tool when they are little, or, still bet
ter, by stirring the ground from time
to time before they appear at all; for
you may be sure that if the ground is
not stirred frequently they will appear.
Do not let the pests get start. 1t is
safe to use the arsenical sprays on late
cabbages, cauliflowers and tomatoes.
No part of the late cabbages thus far
grown will be eaten, and furthermore,
they develop from the inside so
that even If arsenic is used on them
late, the edible portion is protected by
the coarse outer leaves. Caulifiower
may be so sprayed until the curd be-
gins to form. Anything that is peeled
may be sprayed. Tomatoes may either
De peeled or washed and thus freed
from any dangerous effects.

The lovely gown shown In the picture

tuners are giving much attention to
gowns of this type, for their task Is to

and the work goes quickly, but tho
wide bands on the handsome gown
pictured are not embroidered in this
way. Many of the stitches are short
and set close together. This pattern
is striking and exactly suited to the
yarn used for working 1t out. The
dress is simple In design, and needs
to be, since the things to be empha-
sized in it are the lovely color combina-
ton and the bold and rich EN-
broidery.
A dress of this kind calls for hat
that will play up to it, and a broad

and about their homes and as a re-
suit take greater interest in the de-

In keeping their homes and yards In

Much more could be said Of the

I have said sufficient to prove beyond
a doubt that the development OF COM

will have tendency to increase the
number of home lovers and home

Real estate companies should avoid
