RAISE FUND OF LIBERTY BONDS.
Lutheran Canvass Now on for Three
Million Dollars.
(The State, 3D.

VIM OlttS, ou.
Lay members of the Lutheran
churches connected with the Mis-
souri, Synod, which covers the en-
tire United States and is the largest
Lutheran body in this country, have
undertaken nationwide campaign
to raise at least $3,000,00O in Lib
erty Bonds, the income Of which is
to be used for the support of it's su-
perannuated ministers, professors,
teachers and their dependents. The
outstanding feature Of this campaign
is that it is based on Liberty loan
holdings of the members Of the BODY,
The official statistician Of the synod
has established the fact that it's
members hold $50,00O,OOO in Lib
erty Bonds, and, as not all REPORTS
are in, it is estimated that the total
amount held is about $65,0O0,OOO.
The aim of the campaign is to get
the members Of this body to donate
1O per cent Of their Liberty Bonds,
which are to be deposited in an en-
dowment fund, and the proceeds to
De used only for ministerial reliet.~
I1crctcforc the funds for ninis,e,
r.ai relief we're raised by voluntary
contributions, and ABOUT $4,000 an
nualy was received cor this purpose.
AS the synod supports about 700 ben
eficiaries, and the high cost of living
makes it desirable that the amounts
paid be increased, this drive is being
conducted to get a permanent fund,
the proceeds from which will enable
synod to give it's veterans Of the
Cross support more nearly ade-
quatc to their needs.
The preliminary campaign has al
ready begun, and each of the 5000
congregations throughout the coun-
try are receiving literature weekly
to educate the members up to the
necessity Of the movement and the
method OF raising the fund. The
campaign will reach it's climax in the
two weeks from March 80, during
which time $4,000 workers will visit
every member of the church to re-
ceive the Liberty Bonds.

TOMATOES IN EVERY GARDEN.
No Other Vegetable so Easily Grown
or SO Important.

Clemson College, April 4.-There
easily grown and SO important in the
winter supply Of canned goods as the
tomato. Therefore, in the face Of
the high prices of canned and I'M
canned food, more attention should
be given to this important and very
valuable crop TO provide for an abun-
dant supply for the home and local
market. Successful tomato growing
is largely dependent upon judicious
soil selection and fertilizer applica-
tion, according to the extension SER
vice horticulturists.
Soil requirements for the crop
are practically the same as for other
garden crops, the well-drained gar
den loan soil being best.
Tomatoes require a relatively low
per cent Of nitrogen as compared
with that Of phosph oriC acid and pot
ash, both Of which are essential to
fruit development. Commercial fer
tilizer should be applied in the drill
at the rate of 600 to 1000 pounds
Dcr acre and thoroughly mixed WITH
~" soil before the plants arc set
Nitrate OF soda IS recon mrudch a.
q side dresser and should be applied
al She rate OF = TO 100 pounds per
acre. Excessive application Of sta
BILE manure is not advised, as it may
prove harmful to fruit formation
and development.
Under such conditions, training to
single stakes and pruning is advised,
but this is impractical on an extern
sivc scale, and is only recommended
to the intensive "a rdencr. The sin
gle stem method a lows more plants
per acre, but a smaller pei cent of
fruit per plant, though the fruit is
of higher quality than that allowed
to ripen on the ground. In this
method the plants are set in rows
three feet apart and eighteen inches
in the drill, and pruned to a single
stem. The suckers are produced in
the axis of the leaf and should be
removed when small. The fruiting
branches are produced between the
leaves and may be easily distinguish
ed from the suckers.
