GARDEN NOTES

Quality in vegetables depends
largely upon their being used while
strictly fresh. Chemists tell US that
sweet corn loses 80 per cent Of its
sugar content within four hours after
it has been removed from the stalk.
Corn, beans, peas and all other
vegetables used for canning, drying,
or table use should be prepared as
soon as possible after they are gath
cred, if vegetables Of high quality are
desired.
Make your garden work all sum
mer by sowing succession of crops.
Succession crops are valuable because
they furnish a supply of fresh veget-
ables for fall and winter use.
Try these for planting now in the
spaces where the early short-season
crops have been grown: Bush beans,
turnip beets, lettuce, summer rad
ishes, kohl-rahi, rutabaga, turnip, and
chinese or celery cabbage.
There is still time to SOW seeds Of
perennial Towering plants. Make the
soil in which they are sown very fine
and keep it cool and moist by shading
and frequent watering.

A NATURAL HARVEST

Undoubtedly plenty of special ex-
plantations can be provided to account
for the appalling size Of the 1920 de-
linquent tax roll in Michigan as re-
ported by the auditor general. 1t is
easy to say, for instance, that the
jump in Oakland county from six to
sixteen per cent in single year is
due to the circumstance that real es-
tate speculation in part Of that county
has developed immensely inflated
land values, and that many people
buying on contract have been so badly
hit by the slump, that they have been
obliged to let their obligations go.
But neither this nor any other local
condition accounts for the increase in
delinquency of almost one hundred
per cent throughout Michigan as a
whole. 1t does not explain why more
than a million dollars Of 1920 taxes
remain unpaid. Not even the general
economic depression fully accounts
for this. Because on the whole our
state has not suffered excessively
from the after war reaction and our
people are relatively prosperous.
The large reason for the failure of
property owners to meet their finan-
cial obligations to the state is, we
believe, the excessive burden of tax
alton that has been put on their pro-
perty. For the last ten years the
mulcting Of the people has increased
by leaps and bounds.
When times were booming, and
wages were fabulous, and farm pro-
duce brought unheard of prices, the
public was able to stand the exactions
placed upon it. People paid up, though
million after million was spent ex-
travagantly or foolishly. But now
when the boom is over, and every dol
lar must be counted, and taxes are as
high as ever, the situation is differ
emit. The state finds it has done as
some foolish individuals do when
times are easy" 1t has spread out
too much, it has overburdened itself
with enterprise and obligation; and
its liabilities are bigger than can be
met.-Detroit Free Press.
