improvements could have been made in his methods. Most home gardeners did not have definite garden plan to begin with, and simply rambed along through the summer, doing things as they called for attention,
 This season there should be plan of work" for all garden operations You may depart more or less from this plan, but.you should start right, anyway. The winter is the proper time to make plans and build castles. With a mental picture of last years garden, proceed with the aid of pencil, rule and paper. Plan just what you are going to dc in your garden this season.
 First of all, the plan must conform to the size and shape of the garden plot. If only a small piece of land is available, careful planning is necessary in order to provide for the crops that you want to grow. Last year, perhaps, too much space was devoted to lettuce and rad ishes, and not enough to beets, carrots and beans. Some of the crops did very poorly because they were shaded by the corn and pole beans, and the cucumbers and squashes ran all over the late beets and carrots. Now, with your pencil rule and paper, work out a plan whereby all, or most, of these difficulties will be avoid ed. Provide for crops and intercrops, also
 
 garden plot will give maximum results.
 After the garden plan is made and you know, or think you know, just how the garden will look after it is started, the next step will be to formulate a schedule of work providing for doing things at the proper season and time. This does not mean planting certain crops at the right time of the moon, but at the right season and when all con- ditions are fayorable. The best garden CTS believe that moonshine is just moon shine anyway, and that real sunshine and some other things such as fertilizers, good seeds and plenty of work, are the essential requirements for growing good garden.
 With the lengthening of the days, it will not be long until work can be started in the garden In the meantimes seeds should be procured, few tomato and cabbage plants should be started in window box and the first steps should be taken toward tha planting of thrift garden.
 All over the country various organiza- tions are studying ways and means to promote thrift and reduce the high cost of living. Begin now to plan a thrift garden for 1920.

Some would be leaders of the southern farmer. time and again. have acclaimed against growing cotton. declaring 1t curse to southern agriculture

 farmer who has grown cotton only has. of course, been falling short Of his privileges. Cotton plus corn, legumes, oats live stock, truck crops, poultry ana fr,,;t means the most profitable cotton. inc most contented labor and tenant, and yyithal the best rural life.
 Rut cotton is the central theme of agri- culture in the south. It should be so, and by the eternal laws of adaptation and cempettion,. it will ever be so Nor can the boll weevil, or pestiferous two-iegged or ponents of the crop, order it other wise.
 The boll weevil does not seriously men ace profitable cotton production Less so now than ever before, because of recently devised methods of combating it.
 True, the expense of growing cotton is increased by the boil weevil. Apparent fy this is going to continue 10 dttdcu 10 the cost of production for al future tune. The cost of labor and supplies IS hish. They may be lower but never as low as they have been in the past

 But the cotton farmer of the future wilt be an all-rround farmer. Cotton will be his speciality just as dairying ss the speciality of Wisconsin, corn a speciality of Iowa. He will be growing some pea nuts, some corn and velvet beans. some cowpeas, soy beans, crimson clover, po- tatoes. live stock. etc. He will find that it is worth while to live more at home.- Fertilizer Messenger.

TW0DAY RELAY
CARNIVAL OPENS
PHILADELPHIA

Philadelphia, April 30.-Clear skies
and a fast track were promised today
for the opening of the annual twos
day relay carnival of the University
OF PENNSYLVANIA on Franklin field.
Should the forecast prove correct
Pennsylvania o%fiiials said mt would
not be surprising to see a number OF
new records hung up, as the pick of
American college and school athletes,
in addition to the stars from Oxterd
and Cambridge universities of Eng
land. we're entered in the various
events.
Seventeen events were on the open
ing days program, the features OF
which were the American college
championship sprint medley and dis
lance medley relay races. h 44O
yard low hurdles. the international
intercollegiate three mile run and the
American intcrscholastic medley re-
lay championship.
Oxford and Cambridge had entrants
In three of these events, the hurdle
race, the three mile run and the dis
British unners faced Americas best.
Captain b. G. D. Rudd of Oxford was
the English representative in the
hurdles. His opponents included
Thompson of Dartmouth, Adams of
Princeton; Kirby, Redlands univer-
$ify, CAL, and Watt of Cornell, all or
whom have covered the quarter in
close to fifty seconds.
In the three mile run A. E. Monta-
que, said to be one Of the greatest
distance runners developed in Eng
land in years. was the British en-
trant. American entrants included
Bond and Campbell. Cornell; Nc
Mahon, Massachusetts, Tech; Night
engale,i New Hampshire state, and
Hisler, Drexel institute, Philadelphia.
The Oxford-C Cambridge team in the
distance medley met the best quartets
J available at more than a dozen east
ern and middle western universities
They included Pennsylvania, Harvard,
Chicago. wisconsin,, Yale Princeton,
Iowa State. Pennsylvania state and
Cornell.
1t was the first time the British
athletes ever ran with the rail ION their
left and Captain" Rudd expressed the
opinion that this would increase their
speed by at least one second each half
mile.
Among the other events on today's
program were the Pentathlon, 1indi-
vidual championship and a number of
grammar and, high school champion
ships.
