the statement made by Assistant Sec

how department representatives in
the rehabilitation camps are aiding
returning soldiers and stilors to find
jobs.
The creation of the emergency com

If they come through in good shape,
the product will be ready for use much
earlier than if the planting were de-
layed About 25 or 80 feet of row will
give all the early beets required by an
ordinary family. Radishes may be
planted in the rows with early peas.
However, it will be necessary to re-
move the radishes before they begin
to crowd the peas. AS a rule, radishes
will be ready for use in three to four
weeks after planting, or just about the
time that the peas have begun to
make a vigorous growth. Most gar
ceners make the mistake of planting
too many radishes, or at least of plant
ing too many at one time and not
being able to use the product.
The old-fashioned method of grow
| ing lettuce was to plant a bed along
one side or in one corner of the gar
! den, and when the plants were large
| enough. to thin them, using the prod
| uct as needed and leaving the remain
der to grow larger. This method of
| growing lettuce is not as desirable as
| the plan of growing it in rows, where
| it can be easily cultivated. Lettuce
| is very susceptible to heat, and it is
| difficult to grow it satisfactorily after
| the weather has become hot. For this
| reason it is best grown as spring
and fall crop. Two or three paintings
| at intervals of ten days or two weeks
in spring and a planting or two in
autumn should be sufficient for the
| needs of the ordinary family.
Planting Second Group.
The second group, including carrots
beetS, parSnips, radishes, satisfy
wrinkled peas, spinach and early sweet
corn, may be planted shortly before
the probable time for the last spring
frost The planting of these crops
should be timed that they will escape
frost and yet be started just as early
as possible. The same planting meth
DDS should be followed as for the
extremely early crops.
When Frost is Past.
The third group of garden crops, OF
those that should not be planted unit
after danger of frost is past, includes
cucumbers, cantaloupes, okra, Swis
{ chard, snap beans, cauliflower, AM
} tomato plants. The time Of setting to

, If they are not crowded, it may pay t

Little is gained by planting this clas
, of plants in the open very early.
The fourth group Of plants, common
ly known as the heat-loving plants, in
cludes peppers, .eggplants, sweet pc
f tatoes, and summer squash. Thes
crops are easily injured by cold night

RAINBOW MEN WILL NOT

WASHINGTON. April THE war
department has decided definitely
that it will be impracticable to parade

General March announced today. Gen
eral Pershing has been so advised.
The division will be brought back
to Camp Meade and subsequently each
unit of the division will be sent to its
home camp for rehabilitation. Regi-
ments and smaller units will be pa
raded in the principal cities of their
home states il this can be arranged.
The entire And division should be

Common garden crops are divided by
the United States Department of Agri-
culture specialists into four groups as
regards the time of planting them in
the open ground.
The first group includes the veget-
ables which will withstand consider
able frost and which may be planted
two or three weeks before danger of
frost is past in the spring. The sec
ond group, or semi-hardy crops, may
be planted few days before, or about
the time, that the last killing frost is
likely to occur The third group,
those easily killed by frost, should not
F! be planted until all danger of frost is
over The fourth group, the heat-lov-
| ing plants, should never be planted in
| the open until both the soil and the
| air are thoroughly warm.
| Among the crops Of the first group
that may be planted before frosts
are past-are Irish potatoes, smooth
peas, onion sets, cabbage plants, kale,
turnips, beets, lettuce, and mustard.
They may be planted early, because
| they require two to three weeks to
come up. While the young plants are
easily injured by frost, by the time
frost danger is likely to be past.
Don't Follow Moon Rule.
Some gardeners formerly believed
in planting Irish potatoes and certain
other garden crops in the proper
phase of the moon. No one seems to
know how the old moon theory origin
ated, but it seems to date back to pre-
historic times and probably was baset
upon the method of keeping time b.
moons rather than by months. There
is no definite experimental data t.
show that the moon has any influence
one way or the other, and experienced
gardeners prefer to plant their pota
toes at a time when the weather ant
soil conditions are right rather thai
according to the phase of the moon
Experience has shown that the poin
of most Importance is to have the LAM
in first-class condition for planting
then proceed to plant as soon a
weather conditions permit.
When Peas SHOULD Go In.
The dwarf or smooth varieties Q
English peas may be planted about tn
same time as Irish potatoes. Her
, again soil preparation is important
and the ground should be made fin
and mellow before planting. Opinion
+ differ as to the depth in which tn
seed peas should be covered. Som
authorities claim they should be COY
cred as much as four inches. Will
other maintain that two or three incl
es is sufficient. Much will depend
| however, upon the character of tn
v soil in which the crop is planted.
i the soil is a light sandy loan and IL
clined to dry out quickly, the pea
) should be covered three to four incl
es. But if the soil is rather heavy an
inclined to pack closely, they shoul
not be covered more than one and ont
half to two inches. The varieties G
peas having wrinkled seed coat
= should not be planted until about tw
weeks after the smooth varieties
