Throughout the greater part Of the
North, the old settlers say, "Plant
turnips the 25th Of July whether wet
or dry" While this is not absolutely
true, it is customary to plant turnips
the latter part of July on land from
which an early crop of potatoes beets,
or some other early vegetable has
been removed. The securing of a good
stand Of turnips depends, first, upon
having the soil in excellent condition
and. second, on weather conditions at
the time of sowing the seed. Either
extremely wet or prolonged dry
weather will greatly interfere with
getting good stand of turnips.
The usual custom is to harrow the
ground to a smooth, even surface, then

a young man who practced medicine
In Pennsylvania became famous and
was called In consultation in many
towns and cities because of his sue
cess in the treatment of disease. This
was DR.. Pierce, who finally made up
his mind to place some OF his medi-
cines before the public, and moving to
Buffalo, N. T., put up what he called
his "FavOrite Prescription" and placed
1t with. the druggists in every state.
DR.. Pierce's Favorite Prescription has
long been recognized as a tonic for dis
eases peculiar to womankind. After suf.
fering pain, feeling nervous, dizzy, weak
and dragged-down by weaknesses Of
her sex-a woman is quickly restored
to health by Its use. Thousands of
women testify that DR.. Pierce's Favor
ite Prescription has entirely eradicated
their distressing ailments.
More recently that wonderful discov.
cry Of DR.. Pierce's, called An-uric (for
kidneys and backache), has been sue
cessfully used by many thousands who
write DR.. Pierce Of the benefits re
ceived-that their backache, rheuma-
tism, and other symptoms Of uric acid
deposits in Joints or muscles have been
completely conquered by its use.

natural agencies to slightly cover It.
II q light shower falls shortly after
the seed ia sown, this will not only
cover the seed but give the plants a
good start. Sometimes turnips are
planted in rows with seed drill and
cultivated. This method is desirable,
especially where the crop is grown In
a small way, but the customary
method Is to SOW the seed broadcast
and trust to luck to bring a good crop.
Turnips may remain in the ground
almost until It Is cold enough to
freeze the soil about them. II left
too long, however, they become pithy.
The usual method of saving turnips is
to first pull them and throw them In
piles, then with sharp knife cut of
the tops about one-fourth inch above
the turnip. The turnips can then be
stored In pits, being covered first with
straw, then with earth. or placed in
cool cellar, the same as for Irish
potatoes. Turnips in the pits will not
be injured by moderate freezing, pro-
vided they are not disturbed while
frozen. It is best, however, to place
enough straw and soil over them to
prevent them from freezing to any ex.
tent.

Strawberries may be grown In hills

says the United States Department of
Agriculture. For very small areas.
plants set in hills close together will
no doubt produce the most and largest
fruit, but viii require more care than
matted rows.
For hill growing, set the plants one
foot apart in the row and have the
rows just far enough apart to cultivate
easily, say from two to three feet; or
set rows foot apart In double rows
and have a space Of two or three feet
between the double rows. Keep all
runners cut OF and give good cultiva-
tion, so as to make extra strong plants.

Starting for Matted Rows.
To start matted rows, set the plants
18 inches apart in rows from three to
four feet apart. For a narrow matted
row, train the first. runners along the
row, covering about a foot In width
and cut of all later runners. From
four to six new plants from each plant
i set will make q narrow row. Fol
wide matted rows, save enough new
plants to make the row two feet wide
or more, as desired. Do not let the
plants crowd each other; have them
four to six inches apart.
Set strawberry plants early in the
spring. If possible, SO they will get the
benefit Of spring rains and make q

They apparently prefer to buy from

men are prejudiced against bond sales

On the whole, therefore, woman
must have, exceptional qualifications to
compete with the young college gradu-
ate who is willing to try his hand at
the game for $25 week. Competition
is nearly as keen as in selling life in

The average good salesman makes
from $1,000 to $4,000 a year, but the
grand average of good and bad is prob

Bond saleswomen were curiosity
before the Liberty Loan drive few
years ago. Wide distribution of bonds
during and since the war, especially
when market conditions were favor
able, increased the possibilities for
intensive salesmanship and many In
vestment firms experimental with
women. The results, on the average,
have not been favorable. There have
been q few exceptions to the rule, but
in q large majority of cases sales
women have failed miserably after
doing well among their relatives and
acquaintances. In these cases sales
managers found the women lacked a
sufficient amount of perseverance to
withstand repeated discouragement.
Investment firms which experi-
mented along these lines selected
women with wide social or business
acquaintances, and to certain extent
this plan was successful; but the turn
over on the women's staff was ap-
sales force.
The idea in trying out women origi-
mated probably from the desire to sell
securities to women, but women ap-
parently place little trust in members

We cannot attempt to advise you
whether you should continue TO hold
