HOW'S YOUR GARDENl

Are you eating radishes, onions and
lettuce from your own garden? You
should be doing so and you should be
planting more radishes, onions and
lettuce to take the place of what you
have harvested.
In normal years We have no killing
frosts after May 10. One can now
plant the more tender vegetables
tomatoes, melons, beans and sweet
corn. If We should have cold snap,
the plants can be covered.
The backyard gardener who is in
earnest has his potatoes far enough
long to be hoed and he is hoeing
them. too. He is also planting his
vegetables in relays so that he will
have a fresh supply at all times.
Gardens will not only help save
meat and wheat, but they will save
money for the gardeners. Aside from
the financial side, which is almost
broadside, the gardens furnish out
door gymnastics comparing favOrably
with pushing a lawnmower.
How's YOUR garden?

MOTHER O'MINE

Mother o'mine-Sunday is her day
Out of all the days in the year when
she tolls for everyone else, when she
puts herself last and all others first
the second Sabbath in May has been
chosen on which to do her special
honor and reverence. other days we
may be too busy with the affairs of
the workaday world to devote much
time to mother except in keeping the
thought of her as a guiding spirit be-
fore us, but Sunday We lay aside the
petty annoyances of the everyday
world and we remember our mothers
all over the land by word of mouth or
pen or by some little act of apprecia-
tion-white flowers in our button
holes. A gladstone joyous May day it
will be, rain or shine.
A mother is the spirit of sacrifice.
She is ever ready with unfailing love
and encouragement. the heights and
depths of which Kipling has eulogised
in his little poem:
If ! were hanged on the highest hill,
Mother omine. o mother O'mine!
/ know whose love would follow me
still,
Mother o'mine, o mother o'mine!
If | were drowned in the deepest sea,
Mother o'mine, o methero'mine!
| know whose tears would come down
to me,
Mother omine. o mother O'mine!
If | were damned of body and soul,
Mother o'mine, o mother O'mine!
| know whose prayers would make
me whole.
Mother o'mine, o mother o'mine
Let us do tribute to this mother-love

LIVERPOOL LEADS IN ECONOMY
Food Problem Handled by City Faith.
ers In Municipal DepOts.
Correspondence Of the Associated Press. \

Correspondence Of the Associated Press
LIVERPOOL, April 15.-Liverpool
the second largest city in England, is
leading the whole country in solving
the food shortage problem. 1t has
municipal kitchens which are models
and work more efficiently than those
in any other part of the kingdom. II
sets every other city in the country
an example by maintaining a munich
pal potao-peeling plant and cooking
the potatoes for the bakers to mix
with their flour. Its latest enterprise
is supplying householders with boil
ing water for cooking and washing
purposes and thereby causing a great
saving in fuel
Liverpools city fathers are very
proud of their efforts to make their
people the most comfortable in the
country in these days of enforced
economy. With display of pride they
gladly show visitors these new ways
OF meeting the food shortage They
take them along the streets where
butchers shops are shut for want of
meat. A sign on the meat market
reads, Why buy meat from the butch
er when you can get it ready cooked
at the food depot?" The argument is
unanswerable particularly when there
is no meat to buy at the butchers.
There are eleven municipal cook
shops where a family of four might
buy and take away a satisfying din
ner for % cents. Stewed steaks, po-
tatOes and puddings are the principal
articles.
An enterprising city engineer has
set up an engine which runs a ma
chine that peels tons of potatoes in a
few minutes, and also supplies steam
to great cauldrons in which the DO
tatoes are cooked. This enterprise
supplies a clean and wholesome flour
to the bakers which is mixed with
wheat flour and helps to produce
delicious bread.
At the food depots a person can buy
for a cent a great bucket of boiling
water, and the population is being
encouraged to come for this boiling
water in order to save coal. Instead
of buying coal to boil kettle for CO.
Goa or tea people can get as much
water as they want for a cent
Those responsible for Liverpoors |
enterprise declare that results have
already shown that a wOrkman's fami- |
ly can live much better and more
economically by buying its meals at
the food depots than by doing its own
cooking
