WARSAW: THE PARIS OF
POLAND

A~o oiher people, In ull the wOrlu
history, has borne oppression so brave
ty aud glOriously as the Poles except
the Jews: and Warsaw, where y the
Russians had to keep garrison of
1O.0OO' troops to overawe city of
100000 people," Is to Poland. what
Paris is to France.
Indeed the vivacity, the gayety and
the quick wit of Warsaw's people are
u constant reminder of Paris; as well
as those deeper likenesses which
spring from Warsaw's ascendancy In
the letters, the arts and the social
xTaces.
All this, too, I'm city where the
most grueSOme tragedies have stalked.
As recently as the years of our own
Civil war the Russian army moved
down thousands of men and women

national anthem. DeportatiOns are an
old story in Warsaw. every effort at
naturalization was followed by
slaughter, and hundreds marched the
bong trail to Siberian exile
But Polnnds spirit meanwhile, be-
came Il synonym for the indomitnbles
The success of the classification of Po-
hnd has been described as the process
OF Keeping 12!0OO,OOO Poles pinned to
Russia by bayonetS. Politically nom
existent, for even POland's name was
expunged from all official Russian rec
ortiS. the pre-wnr Warsaw We'd with
world capitals in science, particularly
medicine, i'm manufacturing, in trade
and in literature.
Though Warsaw betrayed none of
the grimness characteristic Of Russian
cities, reminders of her by-gone glories
and tragedies We're to be found even
before the World war restored her au-
tocracy.

PLANTING onion
SETS in DRILLS
May Be Set Out as Early in
Spring as the Land Can
Be Prepared.
GIVE SHALLOW CULTIVATION
When Tops Begin to Die and Bulbs
Are Full Grown Onions Should
Be PuIied-Leeks Thrive on
Any Good Soil.

Prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture)
For very early bunch onions 1t Is
the common practice to plant sets in
drills IL to ID inches apart and to
3 inches apart in the row. The sets
may be put out as early in the spring
as the land can be prepared.
For dry onions, sow the seed thickly
in drills about II to IA inches apart in
the spring. as soon as danger from
hard frosts Is over. For early bulbs
the seed may be planted in hotbed
or coldframe and the young plants
transplanted to the open when condi-
tions are favorable. Plants 4 or 5
inches high are of good size for trans
planting.
Onions require frequent, shallow
cultivation, and it may be necessary
to resort to hand wedding. When the
tops begin to die and the bulbs are
full grown, the onions should be pulled
and left in the field for few days
to dry. Then the tops should be
clipped off and the bulbs placed in
crates or bags and stored in we'll
ventilated place to cure.
Early Green Onions.
Early green onions may also be pro-
duced from the multiplier or potato
varieties planted in the autumn. The
large bulbs of these onions contain a
number of hearts," or buds, and If
planted will produce a number of
small onions. The small onions have
but one heart" and will produce large
bulbs. A few large bulbs should be
planted each year, to produce sets for
fall planting.
The top, or tree, onion produces n
number of bulblets on top of the stem.
These small bulbs can be planted in
the autumn and will produce onions
the following spring.
Varieties recommended: Southport
White Globe, Southport Red Globe,
Danvers, Red Wethersfield, Australian

Brown and Prize Taker. In some sec
tions of the South the Creole is grown
and the Louisiana, or Red Creole, is.
II popular variety. The Bermuda is n
good type of mild-flavored onion and
Is desired by many. The important
varieties of the Bermuda onion are
Crystal Wax, White Bermuda and
Red Bermuda.
This plant belongs to the same class
as does the onion, but requires some
what different treatment. Leeks can
be grown on any good garden soil and
are usually sOwn In n shallow trench.
The plants should be thinned to stand
about inches apart in the row and
the cultivation should be similar to
that for onions. After the plants have
attained almost full size, the earth is
drawn around them to the height of 6
or 8 inches in order to blanch the fieshy
stem. The leek does not form true
bulb like the onion, but the stem is
uniformly thick throughout. Leeks are
marketed in bundles, like young onions
and they may be stored the same as
celery for winter.
Leeks are used for fiavoring pur-
poses and are boiled and served with
cream dressing, the same as young
onions.
Garlic.is closely allied to the onion,
but will remain in the ground from
one year to another If undisturbed.
Garlic is planted by setting the small
bulbs, or cloves, either In the autumn
or early spring. The culture is prac-
tically the same MS for the onion. The
bulbs are used for favoring purposes.

Tomato Vines Tied to Stakes Produce
Clean and Healthy Fruit

hotbed, coldframe, or box in the
house. When the plants begin to
crowd, it is good plan to transplant
them to flower pots, plant bands, old
strawberry boxes, or tin cans from
which the bottoms and tops have been
melted.
Tomato plants should be set in the
open as soon as danger of frost has
passed. If the plants are to be pruned
to one or two stems and tied to stakes
they should be set IS inches apart in
rows 3 feet apart. If the plants are
not pruned or staked they may be
planted feet apart in rows 4 feet
apart. 1t is advisable, however, to
prune and train to stakes, especially
for the early crop, as plants SO treated
will be healthier and more easily cul-
tivated and will produce fruit which
Is earlier and more uniform in size
and shape than that produced by
plants which have not been trained
and pruned. Soon after setting the
plants in the field stake should be
driven near each plant, to which 1t
may he tied. Care should be exer-
cised to tie the plant so that 1t will
not be injured by the string. A good
plan is to loop the string around the
stake and tie 1t under leaf stem. Go
over the patch once every week or 10
days and remove all shoots starting in
the axis of the leaves.
Varieties recommended: For early
tomatoes, Earliana or Chalk's Early
Jewel are recommended, preferably
the former. For medium and late
varieties the following are suggested:
Greater Baltimore, Red Rock, Globe,
Beauty, Acme, and Stone. The Stone
is usually preferred for canning.
