were destroyed. and nothing put In

winter frost broke and washed away

where once splendid trees stood In
their noble beauty If the men who
killed them root and branch had had
something of Johnny Appleseed In
their hearts, they would have used
these forests wisely and with love, and
today trees would stand where trees
stood, and the wounded land be

will wonderfully enrich your own lives.

START THE PLANTS
IN WINDOW BOXES
All Vegetable and Flower Seeds
Respond to Warmth and the
Bright Sunshine.

A window box for starting early
vegetable plants will give the home
gardener from ten days to three weeks
advantage in earliness over his neigh
Dor who does not have some means of
starting early plants. Tomatoes, pep
pers. eggplants, cabbage, caulifower
and lettuce are the crops that lend
themselves best to starting early in the
house. 1t does not matter what kind
of box Is used, but for convenience
it should be about 3 or 4 inches
deep and of a size that will readily
fit into the window space. The box
can be set on small table or on
special legs or supports.
One method of providing window
box is described by the United States
Department of Agriculture. Take a
soap box or some similar packing box
and saw it horizontally lengthwise into
two sections. If the box Is too deep
for saving through the center, two
cuts can be made using the top OF the
box with cover nailed on to form
the bottom tray and the bottom part
of the box for second tray. The
middle section which is cut out may
have bottom nailed onto 1t, form
ing still another tray. Only one tray
will be needed In the window at
first for the sowing of the seeds. Later
additional trays or flats, as they are
called, are required for transplantlng.
One point of great importance in
starting early plants In the window
Is to see that they are not over wa

THE LEGEND OF
CHEYENNE

TT so happened that among the
L Chosen People there lived one man
and one woman who remained true
to the Manitou, and who were given
warning Of the punishment that was
to come upon the evil spirits who
dwelt in the valley of the holy noun
tain. And so this man and this
woman, warm in the Manitou's smile.
built a canoe from the stalk OF the
maize. which in those days grew to
great size and thickness.
When the storms came and the
floods and the winds swept the earth,
they floated for many days In this
canoe; and with them on other stalks
foated beasts and fowls. Finally,
when the floods subsidized and the
winds ceased and the rains no longer
fell. they fioated to the summit Of the
mountains, and there their canoe
rested.
When they had rested. they ate
freely of the wrlnkled kernels of the
yellow maize and then they prayed

the waters and the storm.
When the Manitou looked down
from heaven and saw this man and
this woman, and the beasts aid the
fowls, he became sad. and his heart
was filled with pity for those who fled
the sea and reached the holy noun
tain. So he loosed the dragon thirst,
q monstrous beast, which plunged
into the tide Of waters and drank and
drank until the earth was dry TO walk
upon, and only the rivers and the
lakes were left as before the floods
came.
When the Manltou saw the earth
rapidly drying up he became afraid
and babe the dragon cease, lest not
a drop of water be left. And then he
commanded the dragon to arise and
return to his cave In the dark recesses
of heaven.
But when the dragon tried to arise
in answer to the Manltou's command
he was too full, and as he attempted
to get to his feet he fell forward on
his face, crushed and shapeless
/ mass. And he was unable to rise and
go on, and so the greedy monster died

Most farmers can spare enough
manure from their other crops to fer
tilize properly a one-fourth acre gar
den plot, but In some sections, espe-
cially near towns, manure Is no longer
to be had In quantity and other means
must be found for fertllizing garden
soils. In brief, states the United
States Department of Agriculture. at
least three methods of adding fertility
to the soil. First, by the application
of manure second, by the use of soil

cial fertilizers. No one method Is as
good as any two or the three COM
bined, and II we are to get the best
results from the use of commercial
fertilizer a reasonable amount of ma
nure or organic matter must be in the
SOIL
The amount of manure required will
depend entirely upon the soil Itself,
but very few cases are found where
the use of manure on gardens is being
overdone. Tie same might be said
about the turning under of manure
crops or soil building crops. Even the
weeds that grow upon the surface dur
ing the late summer, aside from their
seeds, are often valuable for working
into the soil. The method of applying
the manure will also depend upon To-
cal conditions, but as a rule manure
that has been piled and thoroughly
composted will give better results than
that which Is in the raw state.
Too much cannot be said in favor
of the compost pile by means of which
equal parts of manure and soil or
sods, which are even better are piled
to rot. This compost heap should be
turned once or twice during the win
ter months and the material applied
to the garden as IA top dressing dur
ing the spring. Ten tons of this kind
of material will not be too much for
the ordinary one-fourth acre garden.
Commercial fertilizers are used for
adding plant food TO the garden and
give best results when used in con
junction with stable manure or com
post Commercial gardeners often use

handicap is obviated by planting or

the borders of the vegetable garden
when ii Is too conspicuous and by
planting border of snowy ANNALS
with an occasional bed of posies
among the vegetables to add ornament
as well as utility to the planting.
