GIRLS! MAKE A BEAUTY LOTION
 WITH LEMONS


 At the cost of a small jar of ordin- ary cold cream one can prepare a full quarter pint of the most wonderful lemon skin softener and complexion beautifier, by squeezing the juice of two fresh lemons into bottle con- taining three ounces of orchard white. Care should be taken to strain the juice through a fine cloth so no lemon pulp gets in, then this lotion will keep fresh for months. Every woman knows that lemon juice is used to bleach and remove such blemishes as freckles, sallowness and tan and is the ideal skin softener, srnoothener and beautifier.
 Just try it Get three ounces of orchard white at any pharmacy and two lemons from the grocer and make up quarter pint of this sweetly fra grant lemon lotion and massage It daily into the face, neck. arms and hands. It should naturally help to wfiten, soften, freshen and bring out the roses and beauty of any skin. It is truly marvellous to smoother rough, red hands.

REM MEM BIER.

Most owners of small gardens are content to raise single crop on each plot of land at their disposal, but it is quite possible to grow two or three crops of some vegetables in one sea son.
 Frost is less likely to injure vege- tables planted on high ground than those planted in low places or valleys into which the heavier cold air com mon1y settles.
 Intensive culture and carefully dr. ranged rotations will help make every foot of avoilable space in the small garden produce the maximum yield. Home Food Plots Like These Help tn Q Home Table and the Home Pocket

Need For Home Gardens Calls
 For Work in Every Back Yard

against effort by amateur gardeners to produce truck crops for sale. Such enterprises commonly prove unwise, burdensome to all concerned, and in- frequently financially unprofita ble. Much precious seed and fertilizer-to say nothing of time and labor-were wasted last year in such undertakings. The Governme ment's home gardening specialists believe that best results will be attained if each family at- tempts to raise only enough vegetables to supply it's own table and to afford the surplus which it's members can dry can or store for later home con- sumption.
 Vegetables For Winter Storing.
 The gardener who has provided for the immediate needs of his family and it's canning and drying requirements thereafter should devote attention to fall crops of root vegetables such as potatoes, beets, late turnips, carrots and parsnips, which can be stored cas- fly for later use. It also would be well to give attention to the produc- tion of mature Lima or other beans which can be shelled ond kept ir bags.
 Help On The Home Food Plot.
 The garden specialists of the De- partment and of the State agricultural colleges stand ready to help everyone make the greatest possible success of his home garden and to assist in the canning of surplus food
 With the cooperation of the press, the Department will carry the garden ing advice Of it's specialists directly to many millions of readers. The sup plement this Food From Your Back yard" series, of which this article is the foreword, the Department has is- sued two new war garden bulletins

"The obligation of every man, wo man and child out of uniform to help feed himself will be greater in 1918 than in 1917 Therefore the hona9 gardening and canning activities of last year must be repeated"
 This is the message of the United States Department of Agriculture to every family. Those who cannot pro- duce, can conserve and save food. There must be no backsliding among experienced gardeners; they must re- peat their contribution of food. Alp sence of novelty must not deter those who tried gardening for the first time in 1917 from capitalizing their increas- ed knowledge and skill. Those with experience must help thodsands of beginners to make every seed count to get satisfactory returns from their work with hoe, rake and watering can. There must be no stacking off.

Gardening is everybody's business, but in 1918 everyone must attend to that business.
 And now a word of caution. Don't plant more than you can cultivate; don't try to raise more than you can use. And water systematically all spring and summer A few square yards well titled will yield more than a half acre allowed to run to weeds.
 The Department advises strongly
