crops should be so timed that they
will escape frost and yet be started
just as early as possible. The same
planting methods should be followed
as for the extremely early crops.
When Frost Is ~p7st
The third group of garden CROP, OF
those that should not be planted until
after danger of frost is past, includes
cucumhers, cantaloupes, okra swiss
chard, snap beans, cauliflower and to-
mato plants. The time of setting to-
mato plants, however. will depend
somewhat on whether or not they are
becoming crowded in the plant bed. If
they are not crowded. it may pay to
delay setting them in the open ground
until the air is thoroughly warmed.
Little is gained by planting this class
of plants in the open very early.
The fourth group of plants. COM
monty known as the heat-loving
plants, includes peppers, eggplants,
sweet potatoes and summer squash.
These crops are easily injured by cold
nights and periods of rainy weather,
and it is always best to delay plant
ing them until a safe period has been
reached. 1t SiOuld be borne in mind
that certain soils warm up slowly in
the springtime. and that such plants
as eggplant and peppers are very sus-
ceptible to injury from cold soils.

MDDYJ EVENING

THE REQUESTS.

Sometimes when the great store was
dark and when the people had gone
home the things in the store had story
telling hours and games and frolics
and all sorts of nice times.
Sometimes they talked and some
times they played and sometimes they
would sing to themselves and TO each
other.
There were times, too, when they
would tell what had gone on during
the long day when people had been
shopping and when children had come
and gone and come back again.
Many long talk did they all have
and they had so much to tell always
of what happened in the daytime.
They had so many children they want
ed to describe to each other. children
some had missed seeing. So this is
what happened one evening, and per-
haps we may hear of some more
things that happened too, later on,
But to go on with what happened on
this evening. just after the people had
left the store.
1t was after six O'Clock. The great
children's store which sold everything
anyone could think of-from canary
birds to party frocks-was silent and
still. All the counters were covered
with dark-blue linen covers. Every
thing, in short, was put away for the
night.
Suddenly there came a laughing. All
the dresses and gloves and pocket
books and sashes peeped out from
their blue coverings and began to
laugh too. Just then, flying down the
aisles of the store, between the coun-
tiers, came a fairy.
Its such joke, such a joke she
said. "They all think we've gone to
rest. OF course | am not dress, nor
am sash, but play with all Of you
and so | say we in a most friendly
manner. To be sure you all do have a
rest, later on, for you need it after
the day you've had. But for a time
we play"
