''They are all worthy of notice.
said Mr.. Burbank, from the blue
bells of Scotland to the chimney bell

as the columbine, for they are easily

1.-THE plants Of this family. like the
columbines, are both biennial and
perennial, growing wild everywhere.

parts or Siberia, so in whatever lati-

unhampered by climate.
1.-THE plants generally are white, or
lavender and purple, but rarely vel

bears pink flowers"
Does not the chimney bellfiower
bloom very late in the year,"
Yes. and for that reason it may
be grown In tubs or large pots, and
should be taken indoors when frost
threatens. 1t grows from four to six
feet and is very decorative"
Here is another garden child
claiming attention-the larkspur, or
is it delphinium? Personally / prefer
the more musical name of larkspur."
"All larkspurse," said Mr.. Burbank,
ARE delphiniums. but the latter term
is generally used to designate the
hardy perennial larkspur and its
charming hybrids.
THE perennial Iarkspurs are a fam
lily all by themselves and will bloom
two or three times during the Sum
mer If cut down after each blooming.
This keeps the plant busy, of course,
and, although a perennial, it should
be renewed every two or three years.
THE delphinium has larger bios
SONS and leaves than the annual
larkspurs and has been developed into
great number of varieties, ranging
from white to deep blue and pink,
and the blossoms from a closely set
panicle on stalk, to a loose, graceful

My Neighbor SAYS:

A good way to test whether
a fern requires water is to
give the pot a sharp tap. If
it sounds hollow 1t needs water,
but if a dull sound Is given out
the soil is wet enough.
Give your oilcloth or linoleum
a coat Of varnish and it will
make 1t look like new.
If you wish to keep your
silver salt shakers in good con-
dition remove the salt from the
shakers after each meal. Salt
left in shakers will cause the
tops to corrode.
Paint the ice chamber in
your refrigerator with alum
mum and it will make it look
bright and clean.
Those who sleep in cold
rooms should get two pairs of
cotton blankets, cut one-third
off from each pair, sew these
two-thirds together, hem the
end Of the others. Then you
have three nice long ones that
can be changed and washed as
easily as sheets and are so
much warmer.
When your tablecloths get
worn, make napkins out Of
them; from your long roller
towels make dish towels; from
the bed sheets make pillow
slips; from long curtains make
sash curtains.

HOW 1T STARTED
BY JEAN NEWTON.
Sleeps Eyes"

To say that he is casting Sleeps
eyes" is a popular characterization of
a lovesick swain. Naturally, it is as
sumed that the reference is to the
vacuous and seemingly helpless ex-
preston that is the sleeps! We learn
however that this is merely a coin
cidence, the phrase having had it's
origin in an ancient Welsh wedding
custom.
Beginning centuries ago it was long
the practice among the country people
Of Wales for the bridegroom at a
wedding to present the bride with a
sleeps head. A substitute, when the
young mans means did not permit of
this, was two bright buttons called
Sleeps eyes,"
1t is now long since this custom
went into oblivion, but we have a
relic in the expression Sleeps eyes,
applied to lovers or those who act as
if they might be thinking of going
together to the altar!

1t is funny how people seem TO
think that there is something dis
graceful in being different from other
people. Welcome and Mrs. Robin
tried not to have that feeling about
this white-coated youngster. but just
the same they did their best to keep
their neighbors from knowing about
it. One or the other was always near
the nest and when any other of the
feathered folk chanced to alight in
the tree the white baby was covered
by father or mother wings.
But such a secret cannot be kept
for long. Jenny Wren was the one
who found this one out. She is so
small and she moves so quickly that
it sometimes Is difficult to keep track
of her She had noticed that that nest
seldom was left by Welcome or Mrs.

CODY'S ARMY

The grandest army of the republic marches against the
cltadels of Ignorance next week, $1,000, 900 strong. Our regiments
are mobllzlng, with captains and heutenants in command. Con-
scr1ption is the rule. And as the army moves, so moves the
city, state and nation with it. In all the annals of history no
inner page has ever been written than that which records the
triumph of free public education in the United States of Amerca
One could describe this nationwide phenomenon in the Ian
guage of statistics-so many children, so many schools, so much
money, etc, etc. But let us view it from another angle.
An army of children, privileged in this respect above all
the children of earth, destined to grow into privileged men and
women; citizens, not subjects; masters, not servants.
An army of voters more capable of exercising the great
junction of the ballot because of mental equipment and the
power of decision, without which no free government is safe.
An army of mature minds better able to cope with preiu-
dlces, class consciousness and hatreds. An army developed in
telectually, dedicated to the making of a better today than yes
terday, a better tomorrow than either.
An army whose knowledge and state shall inevitably raise
the standards of art, music, drama, and life in all it's ramifca-
lions.
An army whose proud accomplishments in the past, and
whose promise for the future lends glory to the wisdom of lead
ership of the nations founders. An army whose continued well
being and happiness places an obligation upon each American to
support the public school system to the limit.

OMPANIONSHIP

"God. love and money! are given as the three prime con-
solutions known to man in the difficulty of his life" by Chris
tofer Morley. Morley says that with all three consultations man
is supremacy happy, with one of them he is contented and with
joy.
Every community knows its members who having God ask
nothing more from life. With them God is love and money and
life itself; There are other men and women who have love and
desire nothing more. They obviously give neither thought nor
care to God nor money. AS for the members of the human fam
lily who are happy with their money bags" they appear con
tented n their work of making and spending money. All three
of these groups seem to find life worth the living and are pro
badly seldom heard to complain.
But perhaps there is a fourth consolation unsung by sage
Morley, but none the less consoing to man. This fourth con
ISOLATION is the power to think. There is no greater consolation
than the ability to think alone. Relatively few people can toll
crate medltatng solitude, but many envy those who can. There
are men and women who know of no better company than their
own thoughts. They are called philosophers and their thoughts
and words are eagerly sought after by solitude-fearing people.
We will include Morleys prime consultations to include Thought. !"
Consohng ourselves with thought don't we finally find that
all four consultations are but symbols of something ese-com-
panlonshlp? Why does man turn to God, love, money or his
thoughts for company? Isn't it a fact in the final ANALYSIS that
mans one consolation is society, not necessarily of people, but
of something? Some then will find consolation in God, others
IN love, others in money and still others in their own thoughts,
but all in the companionship thus offered them.

Farming Preparations

WITH that the puller is adjust
ed and aligned so that no beets will be left in the
ground unpuned, and also adjusted so that the beets
will not be broken off at the roots. Many tons of
beets are annually left in the fields because of using
worn out or dull points, or because the puller has not
been aligned as to line of draft.
Beet beds should be looked over to see that there
are no cracks, and that the side boards fit closely.
Wagons should have tight tires and good reaches.
A good substantial leveling "A' will be a great aid
to both the labor and the grower, in getting clean beets
into the wagon without clods or trash.
WITH LABOR-Go over your labor requirements
places in the last few weeks and the fieldman will aid
you in arranging and providing labor, but he cannot do
this without your help. Get in touch with him imme-
diately if you are not sure of your toppers.
WITH BEETS-Keepy your beets watered well up to
the commencement of harvest. When beets are al
lowed to dry out during September a great loss in ton
mage results. With our short growing season here it
is necessary to keep the beets growing until they are
pulled. Beets will not grow in dry ground and the labor
of pulling is greatly increased when the field is dry.
