Some of the ANIMALS that are
hardy and can be planted soon after
the soil can be worked and which
also stand transplanting and even
benefit by being transplanted are:
clarkia, gaillardia, godetia, lobelia,
pansy pinks, sHapdragon, stock,

As a general rule perennials are
not planted so early, except the few
that are really perennials but are
ordinarily grown as ANIMALS. IL
these are not to bloom the first

Practically all perennials benefit
from planting in seedbeds in which

Unemployed Man
Makes Telescope

CONNEAUT, O., July 30 UPN-
Unemployed during the business
slump, Frank Saunders has built
a powerful telescope in his back
yard.
He doesn't claim that he will
startle the world with discoveries
of new planets or solar system
phenomena. He says the instru-
ment was built to satisfy a desire
to work with intricate mechanisms.
The telescope was built at
cost of about $50 but it was valued.
upon completion at more than
$1,000. Saunders used odds and
ends, including an axle, in con-
structing the instrument.
The 10-inch concave reflector
would cost about $40O at an optical
store, Saunders said, but he paid

required dimensions by hand, then

Not only is this wise, but it is also

made, the journey is not delayed during

It must be interrupted If stop is made

against delays, especially when they are
eager to make some special destination
within a specified time. 1t is seldom
that the cracker box or the little lunch

Remember that air in closed cars can
be stale and bad to inhale, unless
enough fresh air is allowed to enter,
just as truly as if one were in a badly
ventilated room. I know OF some fam
lilies where someone will propose a ride
to get the air, and then, with windows
all closed, the men and women will
smoke and talk, inhaling and exhaling
the air which has only such chance of
getting purified as the cracks and crew
ice in the car permit. Keep windows
open, therefore, just as much as COM
tort allows, and do not be misguided
into the thought that you are getting
the fresh air when you are doing your
best to keep it out, simply because you
are speeding along country roads. Get
