 It is a good practice to reserve a small corner of the garden for a seed bed. Here, through special prep aration of the soil it is possible to pro- duce better plants than could other wise be secured. The gardener can transplant from the seed bed to the garden, thus making the plants more stocky. The location of an outdoor seed bed should be such that 1t may be conveniently reached for watering. and 1t should be naturally protected from drying winds.
 Good soil for a seed bed consists of one part of well-rotted manure, two parts of good garden lOam or routed sods, and one part of sharp, fine sand. The manure should be thoroughly routed, but it should not have been exposed to the weather and the strength Ieached out of 1t. The addi- tion of leaf mold or peat will tend to make the soil better adapted for seed bed purposes. Mix ali the ingredients

Lima beans, melons, cucumbers and other garden crops may be started in berry baskets, on sod or in paper bands indoors, and the whole transferred to the garden when the weather permits, thus, gain. ing considerable time. Thirty to fifty hills of extra-early potatoes may even be had by starting ;.s many seed pieces in a box fin the living room or in hot bed and subsequently handling the plants the same as tomato plants.
 Depth of Planting and Distance Apart.
 No general rule can be given with regard to depth of planting, as differ ent kinds of vegetables and different soils. necessitate different practices.

try. Prof. Hobbs recently returned
from a years trip around the world.
Declaring that reports representing
Germany as facing bankruptcy were
unfounded, he pictured her as bee

Gay, yet unable to keep pace with the
contracts and with industry and carry

1T is undoubtedly true Germany is
the play the major role in developing

Germany is the real winner of the war
and she may continue to hold this po-
sition provided present conditions are
maintained. The only factor that might
halt this development is early revival
of American competition.

aroused among the Democratic chiefs
of Henry county, when, during the
closing days of the Wilson administra

postmaster at Middletown, third
class office, following a competitive
examination. Opposition to this ap-
pointment was expressed, it is said, in
the editorial columns of the Newcastle
Times, edited by Walter S. Chambers,
now Democratic state chairman. Cham
bers placed the entire blame on Presl-

with the observation that if another
