DEFECTIVE PLANETS
CURED BY ARMY men

WASHINGTON, March 5 - The
nose heavy Jenny" is the way army
air folks described one type of in
plane which. until recently made the
lives of its pilots miserable because
of its tendency to burrow downward
in flight. The defect that sent the
machines down by the head unless the
aviator kept hauling them up with his
control stick baffled the experts.
Nearly 500 army planes of the type
were not being flown because of it,,
the air service bulletin says, but the
engineering chief at Dayton field has
reported in the words of the man who
flew the first modified Jenny" that
she amt quite so nose heavy" now.
The problem was finally entrusted
for solution to the heaviest and most
powerful aerodyamic experts extant,
two privates LIST class and a second
lieutenant the chief said. After
much worry with it, they discovered
something by an authority on airplane
stability which gave them clue and
by the "unorthodox and radical pro-
cedure" of turning the tail section
plane upside down seemed in a fair
way to cure the complaint. 1t would
take a lot of mystifying language to
explain it, but it worked.

factor before the close of another year.
Already there is much unemployment
OF labor and the local or home produc-
ton of foods in the garden is the
surest way Of safeguarding the family
food supply.
Enough for Average Family.
OEe-tenth Of an acre of fairly good
ground-a square about G5 feet each
way-will supply the greater part of
the vegetables needed by the average
family, say garden specialists of the
department. The cost of all seeds and
fertilizers for a garden of this size
should not exceed 81 to SIS, and may
not cost more than s. or $40.
For Beginners in Gardening.
Some beginners in gardening become
very enthusiastic in early spring when
they look through seed catalogues.
They have desire to plant every kind
of vegetable deliberately described and
favorably illustrated AS rule not
more than Is or 20 kinds of vegetables
should be planted in the average home
garden, say specialists of the United
States Department of Agriculture.
Experience has shown that not more
than 100 hours should be required for
planting and caring for a 10 acre
SdTuell. MS TINE Is so ulSlTlDuleu
throughout the season that the work
can be easily done by most persons
working in factories, stores, or offices.
1t means an average of about 5 or 6
hours week for period of 90 weeks,
or merely enough time for proper out
door recreation and exercise necessary
for good health.
Time REQUIRED Early.
More time will be required early in
the season while the garden is being
prepared and planted than during the
summer, when not more than 2 or ;
hours week will be necessary to keep
the garden in good condition.
A little time during mornings, even
ings. and on holidays spent in the gar
den is a good investment. A garden is
like a farm, however, in that it pro-
duces according 10 the attention given
il. A well-caredfor - rden will pro
duce much higher Yields than one
which is neglected. The average return
in money value from 10 acre plot of
ground usually is about SIS for a
season.

Home vegetable gardens will be just
as important in stabilizing the food
supply in 1921 as they have been at
any time during the past few years,
say garden specialists of the United
States department of agriculture. Ur-
gent need for increased production of
food during the war caused thousands
of rural and urban residents to plant
gardens. which resulted in establishing
the gardening habit. This year, spe-
cialists say, home gardens will play All
important part in thrift and economy.
Thousands of acres of uncultivated
land in and about many large cities
will be utilized this year to furnish en-
ployment and re creation to home gard
eners who know that by raising their
own supply of vegetables they can ma
terially reduce their living costs.
The question of saving and cost,
however, may prove a very Important

peared to feel the change in American

the fact that Mr.. Harding failed to
make definite statements regarding
his attitude on important affairs in
Europe was evident.
mo word for the allies" said the
Petit Parisien, their names were not
even mentioned. No charge against
the Germans, who probably, with their
accustomed obtuseness interpret this
silence as encouragement"
The newspaper added, however, that
Mr.. Harding's address contains no
more, nor no less than what it says
Comment on Speech
Emphasis was laid on Mr.. Harding S
protectionist intentions by the Echo
De Paris which said that perhaps
was the most positive part Of the
speech. The line of conduct of Mr.
Harding's government may follow in
practice was in no way prejudiced. -
The document which has so i'm
patiently awaited" declared the Figaro
"enlightens us so completely on the
political intentions of the new pres
ident."
"L'Avenir declared Mr. Harding
program to pc the most narrowly
American conceivable"
While regretting the absence OF
mention of reparations and other prob
lens before European governments
L'Avenir concluded: But silence does
not mean indifference. The nobility of
the sentiments of Mr.. Harding, as well
as his known sympathy for France
gives us assurance that his govern.
ment will be able to settle in the best
way the great problems to the solution
OF which America can and must con
tribute her help"

through the depredations of thieves,

Lord Askwith states it has been es-

Attributed to Stewards.
Increases of wages, it is asserted af-
ford no guarantee of greater trust
worthiness. Rather the contrary. The
average wages of stewards are said
to be four times their pay before the
war but it is in those departments on
passenger liners with which stewards
are most concerned that depredations,
it is declared, are most noticeable.
The manager of one line running to
expend we'll over $4,000 in replacing
the linen stolen on one round voyage
alone. On this same round trip the
stewards charges for overtime"
amounted to G2,532.
Even the captains boy charged
92S for overtime on the voyage" said
the manager. "If the captain rang
for the boy to bring him a drink, the
hoy charged one hours overtime for
fetching it, provided he had already
done his eight hours"

tai company. "a man recently re-
moved the clocks from the smoking

one of the steamers in dock and car

Stewards, through their union offic

goes on in steamers is done by them

responsible for far more missing
articles than are the stewards.
