Transplanting Methods.

TRANSMITTING is one of the joys of the
home gardener if q few simple rules are
carried out
First off, the transplanting should come
after the plants to be transplanted have at
tanned fair size and yet are not so near
maturity that the loss of root ends will result
in their failure to survive. For larger plants
as much earth as possible should be taken with
the plants to be transplanted, in rider that the
roots be disturbed as little as poa Die.
Small plants, such as zinniaS, larksprur, mari
gold, snow-on- the-mountain and others raised
from seed, should be transplanted when they
are two or three inches tall. In the case of
flowers with tap roots, such as the poppy. the
transplanting must be done at time when
the plants may be lifted without injuring the
tap root.
It is best to transplant on a cloudy day or
just before two or three days rain, if this can
be anticipated. Flowers ought never to be
= transplanted under hot sun, and when cloudy
weather is not available the transplanting
should be done after the sun has set.
The best way to assure that earth Is packed
all around the roots, essential If the plant
Is to live, is to puddle the plants; that is, let
water trickle slowly around the place after the
plant is in position. The water takes the soil
In firmly around the roots and keepe&es the
air, which soon kills the roots.
For few days after the transplanting the
plants should have liberal and daily wetting.
Unless the soil is kept wet the plant win starve.

Cause Of Sun Tanned SnOeU.

A SUN-TANNED snow which recently fen IN
Glacier National Park, like all tinted
snownakes gave rise to considerable conjecture.
After much guessing, the cause of the color Of
the snow was discovered IN severe duststorm
in the Idaho Panhandle. This storm, blowing
toward the park, came in contact with the
snowstorm, with the result that the snow was
tinted tawny color.
This cause was entirely external, but the
famous red SHOWS which have SO often given
rise TO predictions of hloodshed, both ON . war
scale and on a local scale, are caused by q
minute organism called the Protococcus nivalis,
. one-celled plant. which tints the whole snow
fan pink and becomes q red where pressure,
such Is that of q foot Is applied. This accounts
for red footprints in such q snow.

C0tt0nseed Meal as Remedy.

RE Soath, sections Of which have suffered
FROM time to time with pellagra, has had
the remedy in a cheap form within the reach
OF all. Exhaustive tests have Indicated that cot
tcnseed meal Is, next to yeast the most prolific
source OF vitamin G, the anti-pellagra vitauain.
This vitanin, which is essential to life. is
found also In eggs, lean meat, fish and milk.
In some sections where large families and small
incomes are found often these foods are denied
to the members because of their cost.

ut Is Really q Tough Problem, - Says NH R

a lot of this high handed stuff we are pulling
We are riding high horse at this time. So
it takes a pretty smart man to tinker with
this tariff We liable to go do something
here we wont live down very soon. Its all right
to help out the folks back home and bring
every voter some kind of relief, but you want
to be mighty careful at whose expense you
bring it. 1t does look like we ought to be able
to manage our affairs so that we could get
along and still sorter be friends with folks too.
But this tariff thing has sure got two sides
to it, and they are not political sides either.
It's q smart mans business its not just for mere
Politicians to mess with.

Mystery Play
Well Staged

"The Haunted Hour, the play
which opened with the Bronson Play
ers at the Palace theatre last night
proved to be real thriller. Pictures
fall from the wall, dead man fails
out of the closet, his body disap-
pears, just one thing after another,
and when you get to the point where
you think there must be ghosts af-
ter all the but that would be tell
ing too much.
"The Haunted Hour" also ranks
high as a comedy. When you are
not laughing you are thrilled and
when you're neither laughing nor
thrilled the curtain must be down.
Virgie Bronson is seen in a decid-
cdly different type of part than she
has played heretofore. She takes the
role of Brenda, the superstitious
maid. Virgie is as good a comedi-
cnne as she is leading woman
which means she is excellent.
This show is one of the best cast
bills the Bronson Players have play
cd to date. Every member of the
company gives a very convincing in
depreciation of the role he or she is
playing.
"The Haunted Hour" plays tonight
and tomorrow night. 1t will be fol
lowed by comedy that has never
been played in FL Centre Getting
