The Old Gardener Says;

Delphinium plants can be
started from seed now. Indeed.
this is an excellent time for
planting operations. because
fresh seed can be obtained and
delphiniums grow best from such
seed Failure with these plants
often results from planting seed
which is more than a year old.
1t is possible to use the seed
from plants in the garden. the
best specimens being chosen. of
course. Seed should be started
in cold frames or in a sheltered
bed. where shade can be given.
The growing of delphiniums has
become a hobby and a del
phinium society has now been
organized Garden makers who
are familiar only with the older
kinds will do well to buy some of
the newer and finer strains.

one to depend on but him
self. He couldn't go back to the dear
Old Briar-p patch If he wanted to, for
he hadn't the least idea where it was.
He was, in maner OF speaking, lost.
That is. he was up in the Old Pasture.
but not yet being familiar with the
Old Pasture, he hadn't any idea what
part of it he was in, how big it was.
where all the little paths led. where
any of the safe hiding places were or
much of anything else about it. And
he knew. too, that he had at least one
enemy living somewhere in the Old
Pasture, gray old Rabbit who had
warned him to leave and then had
chased him.
Having rested after that chase. Wig
glenose started on to look for a place
where there were no signs that IL was
being used by Old Jed Thumper, that
gray old Rabbit. Finally he reached a
part of the Old Pasture where Rabbit
signs were few and mostly old. There
were some tangles of briars and bram-
bles with old Rabbit paths cut through
them. Wigglenose knew they we're old
because there we're creepers and new
twigs either wholly or partly across
them. One tangle he found hadn't
even an old path through 1t. II
wasn't very big tangle, but 1t was a
thick one. 1t would be very very diff
ficult for an enemy to get at one sit
ting in the middle of it.
Wigglenose hoped all around this
tangle. 1t was largely of new growth.
The more he looked at it, the better he
liked it. This is my bramble- -tangle, "
he decided. i've got to have some
safe place that no one else uses and
this looks as II it grew just for me.
If that ugly old Rabbit finds 1t he
can't say it is his. Yes. sir. this is my
home until find better one. I'll
begin work on it at once. / won't feel
really safe until get into the middle
of it. II danger should come now,
wouldn't know where to go or what to
do. I've got to get in there"
So Wigglenose went to work. With
those sharp front teeth of his be began
cutting twigs and creepers. Snip,
snip, snip, went those sharp teeth. 1t
was slow work and Wigglenose stopped
often to rest. You know he comes Of
family that is not too fond of work.
But considering that never had he
worked before, he worked well. The
thought that he hadn't any other place
to go for safety kept him at it. What

a fresh-water fish, it was a giant, but
some swordflsh weigh more than 500
pounds and reach a length of Is feet.
In a museum at Singapore, is an
oak plank 3 inches thick which once
belonged to the lower side of a ship.
In this plank is the bill of a swordf1sh,
which many years ago cut through
the wood and thin sheet of copper
covering 1t. What force was needed
to give such a blow! We may feel
sure that the fish was not trying to
sink the vessel. but perhaps the dark
bottom looked like an enemy.
The British Museum contains an
other example of hole made in the
solid oak bottom of ship.
In 1875 a swordfish was captured
after it had sunk its bill in the bot
tom of a fishing schooner of the
coast of Long Island The sword was
found to be feet inches long.
Perhaps we shall never know just
how fast a swordfish can travel, but
very likely the speed is close to mile
a minute. Besides that, there is the
great weight of the body to increase
the force of the blow.
The sword is the outgrowing upper
jaw, bony and sharp. 1t plays havoc
when swordfish shoot into schools of
mackerel or herring, slashing about
and killing.
The reddish -colored flesh Of sword
fish is rather oily, but is valued as
food. There are fisheries in the North
Atlantic, as well as in southern waters.
Harpooning Is the usual method of
capturing swordfish, but large ones
