where garden space Is limited plant
root and salad crops. No garden, large
Or small, is complete without them
but they are particularly adapted to
small backyard gardens. Among the
root crops are radishes, beets, carrots,
parsnips, satisfy or vegetable oyster,
and turnips. Salad crops include let
tuce, common or wild cress, dandelion,
Cos lettuce or romaine, Chinese cab
bage, and others. They require little
space, becauSe they can be planted In
rows from 10 to 1S inches apart, and
cultivated with hand tools. Many gar
deners make only one planting of these
crops, but the garden specialists of
the United States Department of Agri-
culture suggest that several paintings
OF them be made week or so apart,
ia order to have succession of those
vegetables.
Radishes are one Of the FIRST and
best vegetables that come from the
garden In spring. They should be
planted us early as possible, whether
for market or home use. For the home
supply small amounts should be plant
ed, and at least two or three paintings
made with varieties that mature at
different tin es.
Food Value of Beets.
Beets are one of the most important
crops for the home garden. Seed can
be planted just as soon as the soil is
In condition to work. When the plants
crowd one another in the row, thin
them out when they are young, and
cook them as greens Later. when

Blind Ok Dies in
Pining for Gander

Greensboro, Ala.-The blind
OK, famous as the protege and
ward of a stately gander on the
j. A. Holcroft plantation, ten
miles west of this city, is dead,
and those on the Holcroft farm
believe his death was due di-
rectly to separation from the
gander.
Since last fall, when the OK
lost its sight, the gander had
acted as personal guardian Of
its huge, helpless friend. They
were in constant association
the gander always present to
hight away other cattle, on the
spot when the OK needed a drink
at the nearby pasture creek, and
alert to every chance to give
service.
Recently IL became necessary
to transfer the OK to another
held. The gander was unable to
follow. 1t was unused to the
new environs and separation
resulted. 1t was too much for
the OK. He pined the first after
noon and dropped and gloomed
the following day and finally
lay down and died. And thus
ended one of the strangest
friendships on record.

insect pests are hard to reach with
ordinary sprays, but the floating dust
settles upon the under side of the
leaves as well as on the surface. The
experiments show that much larger
areas can be treated In less time than
is required by spraying. Moreover, the
equipment necessary to apply the dust
Is much less expensive than spray
outfit and it's cost of application is
less than by the older method. 1t
weighs less than spray and is more
conveniently handled. 1t can be mixed
with arsenate of lead or sulphur Tor

they are about an inch in diameter
both leaf stems and young beets can
be cooked together. When the beets
are larger the leaf-stems become tough
and woody. AS rule two paintings
should be made, one extremely early
and another in about four weeks.
Carrots should be planted just lit
tie later than beets, and as soon as
the plants are up they should be
thlnned. A second thinning will leave
the plants one and one-half to two
Inches apart in the row and give a
supply of small carrots, known as baby
carrots, for use on the table. The
tops of the carrots cannot be used for
green's.
Parsnips and satisfy are more in
the nature Of winter crops; that Is,
they are grown during the summer
and kept for winter use. A section of
row 20 to 80 feet long generally will
produce all the parsnips or satisfy that
the average family will want.
While 1t Is true that too much lettuce
often Is planted at one time not
enough attention is given to keeping
continuous supply. Lettuce plants
grown In the hotbed or cold frame, or
in box In the house, can be planted
In the open ground just as soon as the
danger Of the last frost is past.
Fresh Things Al Year.
BY making study of the different
kinds Of salad crops offered in seed
catalogues one can easily have a con-
tinuous supply from the earliest
springtime until the late autumn, and
even into the winter. Water cress, for
instance, is grown commercially In
ponds or springfield streams in sec
lions where the water naturally con-
tains large amounts of lime. BY start
Ing water cress from seeds sown in a
box In the house or by getting a bunch
of cress In the market and using the
stems for plants, It is easy to grow a
bed Of water cress without the aid of
O stream or pond.
Chickory, or endive, Is one Of the
finest of the winter salads. The roots
are grown during the summer, and
then dug in the fall and packed In the
cellar in boxes Of moist sand the roots
being placed rather close together In
the box with the crowns or tops near
the surface. A covering Of straw is
placed over the box. and the sou |
around the roots kept moderately wa
tered. Fresh, young leaves win be |
formed beneath the straw. and as they |

Bringing Up Golden Child.
While Mrs. Leeds was carrying on
her conquest of royalty ut their home
towns, young Leeds was being kept
under the care of small crew of serv-
ants, instructors, and others afforded
only by mean millions. Here Is an
account of how the youth grew up: !:
Young Leeds had every imaginable
safeguard placed about him to prevent
his being kidnapped and to shield him
from other harm. His mother in
stalled him in her former home in
Montclair. N. ]. When he stepped
from the carriage or automobile each
morning Mt the Montclair academy, he
seemed to breathe freely. For most
Of the time he attended school there
his mother was in Europe and he lived
alone with the servants to minister
to his wants and detectives to protect
bim--but all to keep him from enjoy
ing the pleasures of other boys Of
his age"
His mother, while abroad, got daily
cabled reports on his health. Then,
later, she took him to England to COM
plete his education, giving as the ex-
cuse that "he might not become dis
sipated like so many rich American
boys"
Recently In America.
Young Leeds, around whom the
Leeds millions really center, was In
this country only few weeks ago.
He arrived In Los Angeles late Ia
February on his return from an ad-
venturous trip into the wilds of The
Sumatra jungles. where he hunted
tigers. He had been bitten In the arm
by poisonous insect. He went to q
sanitarium In Shanghai, but did not
recover wholly from the infection and
hurried to this country to undergo an
operation In New York.
While he was crossing the continent
his mother, believed to be dangerous
ly Ill, was preparing for an opera ton
In Athens for an intestinal trouble.
He went to the Ritz-Carlton, intending
to arrange for his own surgical treat
ment, but news of his mothe.s con-
dition led him to abandon that project
and sail for Europe.

SETTING OUT NUT TREES

Nut trees, such as walnut,
hickory and oak, develop deep
taproot and few lateral feeding
roots during their first year.
They cannot ordinarily be trans
planted to the field so success
fully as other trees, so that
planting the nuts or acorns on
the permanent site usually is
considered preferable.

"Shall we 60 on, as at present, TAX
ing part in performances with nom
equity members, or shall we refuse to
work with them and insist that all
companies in which we appear be
solid equity"
In case the members vote for tho
"closed shop" the next step will be
decided at a special meeting here Sun

ton to be taken would be to inform
the independent managers next sea-
son that all the personnel of their
companies must be equity members.

IF the managers find they can get
along without equity members in their
shows. well and good" Gilmore said
today.
Will Be No Strike.
Gilmore insisted that there would
be nothing resembling strike But
there was still am explanation to be
made of just what it would mean IL
certain managers refused to accede to
the equity demands, and members Of
the association should 'walkout" in
true union tradition.
According to Gilmore there are TO-
900 members of the association in
Legitimate" and musical comedy COM
panies. exclusive of the four thousand
members of the chorus in New York

CONGRESS MAKES PARTIAL RESPONSE ID HARD|NG'S PLEA
President Says Government Bound to Fund Road Debts and Provide Additional
 Farm Credits
Bv Associated Press

Washington, July 26.---Partial re- sponse was made immediately by Con- gress today to a special messeage from President Harding requesting that powers of the war finance cor poration be broadened to take charge of funding upwards of s500,00o, 900 of railroads debts and to provide additional farm credits.
 The President in his message, transmitted by messenger. declared the sovernme nc was morally stru legally bound" to fund the railroads debts and was under "an impelling moral obligation to provide agrlcul tural credits.
 The first step toward meeting the second of the two requests-provi- sion for additional farm credits had in reality been taken In the Sen ate before the presidential message was read. Senator Kellogg, republican, Minnesota, introduced a bill, drafted by Secretary of Commerce, Hoover, and Director Meyer of the war fi- nance corporation, and said to have the approval of the President as a substitute for the pending Norris bill to create s100,000 000-farm export corporation. The bill as introduced embhaced the Presidents suggestions to empower the war finance corpora ton, instead of a new federal corpo- ration as provided in the Norris bill, to advance credits for agricultural exports.
 No Added Burdens
 The Presidents message dealt par ticularly with railroad financing and declared the proposal that the war finance corporation take charge of funding the railroads debts to the government would cause" no added expense, no added liability, no added tax burden" The President described the proposal as "a simple remedy" Contemplating receipt and disposition

Prisoner, Taken Away
 From Officer, Captured
 Again With AccompIices

Huntsville, July 26.-State officers en route to Huntsville last night from New Hope, 25 miles northeast of here. had an unusual experience with holdup and escape of their prisoner. later the whole bunch be- ing landed in the Madison county jail.
 Deputy Sheriff Houston Taylor, minus handcuffs, had tied Dick Chris tian withe a rope and was bringing him to Huntsville in his car on a frivilous charge. About half way to Huntsville. the officers car was held up by Dick Christian. Sr., and Dutch Christian, father and uncle of the prisoner, respectively. who was un- tied by them and made his escape. The officers were then sent on their way and the men holding them up dashed out into the bushes. Rein forcements were secured in Hunts vile, and during the night the Chris titan home was surrounded with the result that the escaped prisoner was recaptured together with his father and uncle, all of them being in jail here on several charges, embracing assaults with gun and interfering with officers
