just About Chickens

I have just come in from seeing
about the youngest bunch of pullets.
and it seems to me that this is the
right time to talk to you about your
plans for the coming Matching sea-
son. L hope that thus far you have
been able to get your plans carried
out, it is something that few of us
ever really accomplish, but that
must not keep us from hammering
away at them. 1t may be that when
the time comes for them to become
facts we may be in better position
to profit by them.
Some of the readers of these
pages are having had to wait till
now to get the new male to head
their pens, some may decide to get
chicks. Whatevere you decide on
let it be done as soon as you can,
for it takes twenty-eight days for
one to be certain of the new strain.
l do not advocate all the chicks be-
ing Matched too soon in the year,
nor do 1 advocate all being Matched
near one time. My experience has
been that the January and February
CHICKS grow OIL Well, they are z
sight of trouble, and mine begin to
lay about August, then 1t is almost
a certainty that right now most of
them take up the idea that they
need new dresses, and quit laying for
while. True, the hens are begin
ming, the hens that will furnish eggs
for setting, but we may be greedy,
we want the pullets to lay too. Mine
are giving me beautiful eggs, and
paid the last feed bill, six March pull

FARM EDUCATION
BY DR. ANDREW M. SOULE
Growing Onions and Tomatoes as
Truck Crops


Q. S. NJ, Coolidge, Ga, writes:
Please give me all the informa-
ton you can on the growing and
marketing of onions and toma-
toes.
In your section of the state you
can grow Bermuda onions with sue
cess. 1t is probable, of course, that
a very severe freeze might occasion
ally destroy this crop, but it would
be an exception rather than the rule,
because Bermuda onions have been
produced in the territory just south
of Atlanta and passed through Sc
we're winter freezes with a high de-
gree of success on various occa-
sions. We believe there is no variety
of onion which could be cultivated
in your section that would sell more
readily or command a higher price
than the Bermuda variety. This
strain should be planted in January
to April. 1t may also be seeded again
In September to November The
rows should be about fifteen inches
apart, and the sets may be left four
to six inches apart in the drill. 1t
takes about a quart of sets to fifty
feet of row, or eight bushels per
acre. The seed of Bermuda onions
may 6f course, be sown in October
and the plants be transplanted. This
is probably the cheapest way for
you to make the crop. Seed sown
now should produce small plants
ready to set out in January, or at
least by the first of February. 1t
takes Bermuda onions from 80 to
100 days to mature from the time
of planting.
Tomatoes for early marketing
should be set out as soon as the
weather has settled down sufficient
ly. The young plants, Of course, can
be developed much earlier in cold
frames. In your section, we think
YOU should sow your tomatoes the
first of January and have them
ready to set out in March. Toma-
toes may be ct in rows three and
one-half to four feet apart, and they
should be spaced three to four feet
in the drill. 1t takes about one
ounce of seed to produce 1000
duce enough plants for an acre. To
matoes may be staked and pruned,
though this is a somewhat costly
and troublesome undertaking where
they are grown on commercial
basis. 1t takes this crop from 80 to
100 days in which to mature from
the time it is planted. The Stone,
Earliana, Livingston and Beauty
are among the best strains to set
out.

She cannot doubt that he loved
her, becaC~e he gave great and I'M
disputable proof of that by assum-
ing her support for life. Nor can she
see any reason for his change of
attitude. She still carries the same
line of bait with which she caught
him. She still has the same eyes
that he likened to violets drenched
in dew, but he doesn't notice them.
She still has the same white hands
that he used to hold by the hour,
but if she wants anybody to hold
them she has to hunt up some man
to whom she is not married to un-
dertake the job.
No woman can ever understand
why a man doesn't put forth the
same effort to make his home a
going concern as he does to make
his business or profession a success.
If every man tried to sell himself
to his wife as he does to his en-
ployer, or a big customer, or a val
liable client. there would be no dis
gruntled dissatisfied married WON.

If every man studied his wife's
peculiarities of disposition; if he play
ed on her weaknesses as deity and
handled her as tactfully as he does
a merchant who is about to place a
big order, or 81 rich patient, every
wife in the land would be eating
out Of her husbands hand.
If every man paid his wife a fair
wage for her services, as he does
his stenographers and clerks, it
would take the heaviest curse off
matrimony for millions of wives
But, although to have a contented
wife and peaceful and happy home
means more to a man than to make
a million dollars, not one man in
a hundred ever gives any real serious
thought or makes any honest effort
to make his marriage a success. He
leaves the most important thing in
his life to chance, and he wins out
or loses according to whether Lady
