Men will always make foolish
blunderS in choosing a wife, so
long as the women they enjoy
going out with are so often the
kind that they'd hate to come
home to.
Most women who have every.
thing they want in life seem to
have so many things that they
DON'T want-including avoir.
dupoiS, nerves. dull husbands, in.
digestion and divorce scandals.
A peSSimist is a man who
lives in the eternal suspicion
that every woman is trying to
catch him. A fataliSt is one
who knows that some day,
SOME woman will catch him
and cheerfully resigns himself
to the inevitable.
Lots of intelligent modern
women still believe in a per-
sonal devil-because they have a

articles ON flower gardening writ

BY DIR. VIM. A. TAYLOR
Chief, Bureau OF Plant Industry,
U. s. Department of Agriculture
"Plow deep while sluggards
Sleep" said Poor Richard. It is
good advice for flower gardeners,
but deep blowing or spading may
even injure the garden IL 1t turns
up infertile subsoil that will not
nourish the seedlings.
Such soil forms crust through
which the tender plants cannot
thrust, and then bakes and cakes
in summer, making cultivation
difficult and watering problem.
"Plow deep" in flower gardening
should mean thorough prepare
ton and enrichment Of the soil to
provide a deep, rich, friable home
for plants.
"While sluggards sleep" is the
other half of the maxim that in
vites the aspiring gardener to
work harder in the spring when
the urge to garden is strongest,
and then have an easier time in
the heat Of summer. Thorough
preparation is doubly desirable II
the gardener Is planning his fiow-
err pictures not only for this year,
but for next year and after.
Dark Loan for ANIMALS
Annual flowers flourish in the
deep, fertile, loamy soils which
are even more necessary for many
of the biennials and perennials,
in which the bed Is prepared with
the expectation that one thorough
preparation will carry the peren-
mails through three seasons.
A well-prepared flower bed pro-
vides several essential elements.
A good bed provides: % good
drainage; (2) a rich and porous
subsoil that will hold water. and
an abundance Of plant food to en-
courage deep roofing; and ca
friable top soil, full Of minute air
spaces. capable Of drawing water
and dissolved plant food from the
enriched subsoil reservoir, abb
sorptive Of rains and surface wa
tering, easy for roots to pene-
trate, and easy to cultivate and
mulch. 4f ~,
