FIVE AND TEN

Five years and $10OOO The new amendment to the Vostead Act is summarized in aptness of Amer ican slang, Five and Ten" Proponents of prohibition declare themselves elated by having statutory enactment making elons of those who disagree with them The law of search and seizure has been thoroughly established by the court decisions of the last few years the most fanaca of prohibonists accepted the interpretation of constitutional provisions which have pr e guarded the sancitity of private homes.
 We think very evident that citizens will not rafy criminal prosecutions based and predcaed upon illegal and unjustifiabe searches upon entrapmens upon ex pendtreS of government money III the purchase Of out lawed liquor by groups of enforcement agents also universally condemn the actions of paid spies infoers and agents who themselves have recessy, wantony and criminaly endeavored to bring about conv1c tons under the Vosead Act Reports of habitua perjury in the making of affdavts upon which to base search warrants do not tend to add respect for the law for its enforcement.
 Public opinion will soon formulate as to the wisdom and necessity of the recent legislation and just far public opinion will permit, and no further will he pertaining to felonies be ratified.
 Is citizen who purchases intoxicating liquor, and who does not disclose such fact subject to prosecution for conceang the commission of felony? Must such 3 citizen exercise right given him. and arrest vendor ot liquid refreshment nsanter without warrant? Dr. shall the person making the sale at arrest the purchaser for the unlawful and feonous possession of alleged m toxcants he word alleged used advsedy) and thereby endeavOr to immunity from prosecution as dea CT of intoxicating liquor?.
 Should the friends of the prohibition law be engaged in making friends for the law, instead of enemies?
 We submit further experimentation by the vast horde of federal employees, avowedly put into office to a q in the enforcement of One and of only Of anal statutes is dangerous to the extreme to the continued life of the nation From the standpoint of society whole unresraned traffic in intoxicating liquor fatal to the moral fibre of our youth.
 But is it fair is it right is it necessary and is it expedient matter of national concern to classify as felonies violations of the law apparently direct toward the accomplishment of social and moral reform?
 The answer, undoubtedly, rests with the years to come.
 Even though the most stupendous grant of power ever delegated now reposed federal judges to render sentences of Five and Ten" in their discretion will the citizens who constitute res forget that this nation was created by those who refused to surrender their beliefs in social political religious, and personal right
 We wonder if the cause of temperance has really ad. vanced by the recent law

Trading in copper futures started on
the National Metal exchange in New
York Wednesday, affording an open
market for the red metal in America
for the first time in the industry's his
tory.
The first sale, contract of $4,000
pounds of December copper at 1915
cents, was made by Jerome Levine to
Harold Bache.
Edwin Vogelsang, president of the
National Metal exchange, in an ad-
dress preceding the opening called at

movements of the metal.
During the first quarter of this

an abrupt advance and decline Of

REMARKABLE ACHIEVEMENT

The completion of the new Tanner
Chapel A. M. E. church at Eighth and
Jefferson streets is an achievement of
note among the members and friends
of this congregation and the commun-
ity generally. This building represents
an investment of $25, 900 and stands as
monument to African Methodism in
the west.
Rev. A. H. Hamilton, the pastor, and
his affable companion, deserve no small
degree of credit for the completion of
this project Their untiring energy and
faithful service will never be forgotten
by the loyal members of this church.
May success attend their efforts always.

COMPLAINERS

Successful men in any line of endeavor
do not complain. They keep plugging
away and failure only makes them
work harder.
Some men will fail in business en-
terpriSe through continually lamenting
that business is bad. In time they will
convince all their customers that it is
and they will go elsewhere to trade.
Some farmers can work twelve hours
a day on good piece of land and make
a failure Of it because they see nothing
and think nothing but failure. Other
farmers can work under similar condi-
tions. and by using their heads make
their work profitable
The successful man studies conditions
and analyzes suggestions and makes
improvements as rapidly as it is pos
Sible for him to do so. His returns are
in proportion to the activities of his
brain.
The failure is slow to change. He
doesn't take stock in new tangled ideas.
What was good enough for his father is
good enough for him. And that is all he
gets.
When put to practical use, brains be-
come valuable asset. When merely
carried around and never exercised,
they are little better than a burden.

A peony show for Washington and
vicinity is decided novelty In itself.
Despite the fact that the peony can be
grown in superb quality In this region,
it never has attained the popularity
that obtains farther North, possibly
because Of the fact that there are so

THE VEGETABLE
GARDEN

Some home gardeners have peas
nearly foot high at this time, having
planted early and benefited by the
warm growing period of early April.
Such peas will outyield those of the
same variety planted now because they
will blossom and pod during the cooler
weather.
Swiss chard deserves a place in the
vegetable garden. It is grown and han
died in the same manner as its cousin,
the beet, but forms no enlarged root,
the edible portion being the leaves.
The midribs are thick and stout and
may be used much as asparagus or the
whole leaf may be cooked as spinach.
It is a cut-and -come-again vegetable,
provided q few leaves are removed at
time.
Asparagus Is worthy of a permanent
place in the vegetable garden, but Is
often left cut of the planting program
because of the long time necessary In
bringing q bed to the cutting age.
Growers have found that it doesn't pay
to harvest a crop until the beginning
of the third year In the garden. This
long wait is we'll rewarded in the END
and can be Offset in part by using the
soil between the rows for growing let
tuce spinach or other growing
plants. Asparagus beds may be started
from seed or with plants, preferably
the latter, choosing where possible
large, thrifty one -year-olds. Asparagus
should not be planted closer than four
feet between rows and two feet in the
row.
The tender white onions known as
Spring onions may be secured by
planting few rows late In the Spring
or In early Summer and allowing them
to lie over Winter Growth starts very
early In the Spring, resulting In the
edible stems.

FOR FARM AND GARDEN

HoME gardeners are often at a
i u loss to account for the failures
of what first appeared to be most
promising rose bushes, bulb stock,
and flowers grown from seed.
In most cases, it will be found, the
chief cause of their failure or lack
ofcomplete success has been poor soil
i'm other words, soil deficient in
nourishment.
For they hao forgotten that all
plants are like human beings - that
they Living things and must be fed.
Without plenty of nourishing food
they cannot thrive any more than we
could. And like ourselves, they must
have balanced diet"
Professional gardeners and nursery
men give special care to that point.
For years they have used Vigoro, a
scientific, complete plant food, spe-
cially formulated for their use.
Thousands of home owners have
discovered it within the last few years.
And with it they are getting profess
sional degree of success.
With this plant food. Vigoro, COM

WATER LILIES

To Mrs. L. Helen Fowler, proprietor
of the we'll known Show water gardens
at Kenilworth, D. c., we are indebted
for the following information concern
ing water lilies and their culture and,
incidentally, for the beautiful views
taken on her grounds. Writing IN the
National Horticultural Magazine. vol
ume 6, No. 2, pages 1899, Mrs. Fowler
remarks that water lilies are very easily
grown, the chief difficulty being in pro-
viding a pool or pond for their culture.
The pool may be simply a cenent-lined
excavation about feet deep and With
slightly slanting sides to prevent ice
injury, or may be a natural pond, II
one is fortunate enough to possess such.
In selecting varieties the purchaser
must bear in mind that there are TWO
distinct classes of water lilies. the Marcy
and the tender The home gardener
will be naturally interested chiefly In
the hardy lilies, for he rarely has a
greenhouse for Winter storage. Mrs.
Fowler points out that there is Won
derful range of color from pure whites
to garnet red from which choice OF
varieties may be made. The range IN
size of blooms is even more marvellous.
there being varieties with flowers the
size of a 25-cent piece to those with
blooms 10 inches across.
Early Spring Is LIE DeSb tlIllC AOA
planting hardy lilies, since plants set
out at this time viii bloom the first
season. When planting in concrete
pools the roots should be planted IN
a box of fertile soil covered with an
inch of gravel or sand to keep the
water clear. A mixture Of turfy loan
and old COW manure is recommended as
ideal for lilies.
Mrs. Fowler adds few bits of peril
nent advice. such as the need of a
sunny location for the pool, the advisa-
bility of only limited number of plants
to q given sized pool. and the neces-
sity of avoiding cold water, Sucn as
might be supplied by constantly run
ming fountain. Mrs Fowler mentions
q number of desirable aquatic plants,
such as Iris pseudaeorus and Iris verSi-
color and the swamp forget me-not.
Myosotis palustris, for edging the lily
The following list of hardy lilies is
offered as a basis from which to choose
