start. one or two seeds to pot of
the two-inch size may be planted and
the stronger of the two seedlings re-
tanned to grow along.
For plants which cannot be trans
planted readily if the roots are dis
turbed in the operation these paper
pots are ideal. If cucumbers can be
given two or three weeks start by this
method, they are i'm much better shape
to withstand the ravages of the early
bugs which annually take heavy toll
of the seeding plants in the open
ground and make 1t necessary to plant
more seeds to the hill than could be
grown should they all survive.
In the larger-sized paper pots, gladi-
olus bulbs as well as tuberoses may
be sprouted and placed In the ground
with an advantage of months
growth over the earliest date it would
be possible to plant them in the open.
The pots are so cheap in price that
they can be thrown away after using
with no real loss.
One precaution is necessary In u.s.
ing these pots. They should not be
allowed to stand In water or the bot
toms will rot out while the sides re-
main intact. 1t is necessary to provide
drainage in all but the smallest sizes
with pieces of broken earthen flower
pots, crockery or a few pebbles.
Castor beans may be given a fine
start with these paper pots which will
bring them to majestic proportions
much earlier than If planted I'm the
open. Planting the seeds i'm these
little pots saves the work of trans
planting which will become imperative
if the seed is planted in the usual way

Uncommon Sense

SLOGAN OF FAILURE

k<TF had gone after that contract 1

manager of a business firm to
one of his subordinates, who had re-
turned empty-handed from a business
trip.
Sure you would" sand the subordi-
nate, cheerfully, and if l had your
brains instead Of you, I'd be sitting in
your chair, and you would be out pull

The foregoing is typical of a con-
versation which, In some form or other,
takes place in every business institu-

twenty times a week.
1t may be that the bosses are over
confident in their own ability and over
severe on the men under them.
But the excuse beginning IF had

most inexcusable excuse that there Is

The man who admits that he has not

The man who is convinced that he

has stopped trying, and when a man

OF all the futile improbable employ

brains is the worst.
An employer who hires a man for a
position of trust and responsibility has
the right to expect him to do what he
is told to do, and to act, when out Of
the office, as the employer would act.
If he fails, he fails. Nobody can ex-

he at least should not make the excuse
that he has failed because he lacked
the energy. the intelligence and the
resourcefulness to succeed.

housekeeping need not be the bug
bear 1t has long been regarded in
many households. II the work is care
fully planned. IL the kind of furnish
ings that are easy to keep clean are
chosen and handled in the right way,
and II provision is made for keeping
all the dirt possible out of the house,
there will be no need for the up
heavals that result in discomfort to
the entire household. The following
are good rules by which to organize
the housekeeping:
Keep dirt out of the house by clean
ing the walks, steps. porches, and
stills regularly and often. by screening
windows and doors near the ground,
and by insisting on having muddy
shoes and coats cleaned, or left out
side.
Lessen the number Of dust-collecting
places, such as unnecessary cupboards,
groOved and carved woodwork. floors
with cracks; rough-finished walls, elab-
orately carved and upholstered furni-
ture, superfluOus draperies, and bric-a-
brac.
Remove dirt frequently systemati-
cally. This keeps the house and fur
nishings in better condition. and
makes the need of heavy cleaning less
frequent.
Clean by taking the dirt away, not
by scattering 1t. to settle again else
where.
Do heavy cleaning little at a time
to avoid the hard work and discom-
forts of the old-fashiOned spring and
fall housekeeping.
Have supply Of good cleaning tools
such as your work calls for. and keep
Them in good order in a convenient
place.
Use water and cleaning agents spar
ingly because otherwise they NAV
spoil finishes and weaken glue, paste.
or cement.
Watch for troublesome insects and
animals, and take prompt measures to
get rid Of them il they appear.
Make all the family help by leaving
things where they belong, and in good
condition.

States Department of Agriculture in a
