Peas can be planted in certain
parts Of the South late in Novem-

MANY VEGETABLES ARE
GROWN IN WINTER IN
SOUTHERN GARDENS.

Spinach should be given prom
inent place in the southern winter
garden and two or three paintings
should be made in order to have
a succession Of cuttings. Spinach
requires a rich soil and the seed
bed should be thoroughly pre-
pared before the seed is planted
"A bed 7 feet wide and Is to 100
feet long, containing about Z or S
rows spaced just far enough apart
SO that the hoe can be used be-
tween them, will provide all the
spinach that is needed by the ave-
rage family. These suggestions
are made by garden specialists of
the United States Department of
Agriculture.
In many parts Of the South,
Bermuda onions may be grown as
a winter crop and used in the early
springtime. either in the form OF
young onions or later as mature
spring onions. If grown from
seed, the seed should be placed in
the ground at the earliest posi-
BILE moment and later thinned so
that the plants stand about three
inches apart in the row. II
grown from sets, they may be
planted any time up until the mid
die of December. The common
yellow and white onion sets may
be planted during November. or
December and will furnish young
onions during the greater part Of
the winter.
Lettuce for Winter Growing.
Lettuce of the Cos or Romano
type is especially adapted to
growing in the South during win

ties of lettuce require some pro-

Of a Mme|ess Tramp
An historically accurate account of how tattered hobo whose
name Still unknown, became benefacfor to humanity

Mr.. Horizons trouble had
been Bright's Disease. This
terrible scourge of the hui
man race had given hi nj
three years of pain, irrita-
ton and misery. The hobo's
compound had cured him,
and it had cured many 9th
ers afflicted with similar
troubles.
Therefore Mr.. Horton de-
cided to irnmortalize this
nameless tramp. He named
his preparation HOBO Kid
ney and Bladder Remedy,
and the business, which is
now located in Shreveport,
La, is called t h e H o b o
Medicine Mfg. Co.
For nine years, now, this
remedy has been growing
in popularity a n d ia m e.
With practically nothing
but word-of-rnouth testino-
ny, the sales of this remark
able medicine have grown
u til m a ny thousands of
bottles are used every
month, and almost every
mail contains volun t ary
testimonials from users.

Mr.. Horton, who was in
a condition to grasp eager
" at any, possible relief,
was profuse with his thanks
and asked the h o BIO his
n am e. 20 h, I'm just a
hobo" answered the tramp,
and without another word
walked back into the woods
and into oblivion.
Mr.. Horton began taking
his new-found medicine ing
mediately. To be perfectly
frank, he had but little con-
fidence in it. He had taken
medicines Of all sorts with
out result. But he decided
to give it a trial anyway.
Within three days a decided
improvement W "a s noticed.
p ain and other irritating
conditions had been reliev--
ed. Two months later he
was a well man. And from
that time on, he was never
troubled with the disease
which had made his life a
living d E ath for three
years.
Naturally the report Of
the remarkable cure spread.
Folks from all over his Sec
ton of Louisiana came to
Mr.. Horton to ia Ike his
treatment. And relief was
given in evefi lance.
Then Mr.. Horton decided
that a remedy of the value
Of this one should be given
to the world. With a few
friends he formed a COM
pany, and manufacture on
q larger scale commenced.

TITO begin with, this is
q true story. And,
u being true, it is just
one more piece Of evidence
to prove that truth is really
stranger than fiction.
For nearly three years
Mr.. G. D. Horton of Sing
er, La, had been suffering
from one of the most ma
lignant and painful diseases
to which the human flesh
is heir. Naturally he had
become morose, despond-
ent. Famous doctors h a d
pronounced his case incur
able. Obviously he was iv-
ing-cnly to die.
One day in a fit Of desper-
alton he started to walk out
of town down the railroad
track. He didn't know
where he was going and
didn't care. II e w alike d
awhile and then, being seiz-
ed with unusually sever
pains, he sat down to rest.
Shortly thereafter a ragged,
unkempt hobo appeared and
spoke to Mr.. II orion:
Nv h ats the matter, old
man?" he said, kindly.

Mr.. Horton told him.
He never knew just why
he had made this tramp his

. kind providence interced-
ing in his behalf. At a ny
rate, he finished his story.
The tramp was silent for a
moment. II can cure you,"
he said, finally. 'sIn fact.

your trouble"
Without further ado, he
walked into the piney
woods at the side Of the
track, and emerged, pres

what looked to be weeds.
