The Garden
Department
By Ferdinand Wiener

Real spring is around the cor
ner! Just little while and we will
really be busy again. I haven't
heard nor seen the first robin OF
any other sign but we feel it in our
bones, 50 to say. And altho this
nice weather at this writing, may
be deceptive, it is the forerunner
Of what is to come.
It is none to early to plan our
garden. And ANIMALS which are
slow in their first months or are
late bloomers will give us more
satisfaction if started now, inside.
At least choose which stand trans
planting quite well.
Pruning of fruit trees, also grape
vines should be attended to now,
If not already done.
Plants that have been kept in the
home in a dormant stage, should
be brought up from the cellar, CIV
en- some plant food and started.
Or repotted, if that is necessary.
Where water from the thawing
snow collects about hubaceous per-
ennials, it should be given a chance
to drain off, if possible. More plants
are injured from now on, than over
the entire winter. Some plants rot
away from moisture collected I'M
der heavy covering, others be-
cause Of not being covered at all,
the alternate freezing and thaw-
ing kills them. A good many plants
receive no protection or covering
at all this past season, on account
of shortage of such material last
fall.
Our local library has some val
liable books and bulletins on its
shelves, that most gardeners would
profit by consulting.
The Book of Annals" and
Book of Perennials'' are especially
valuable. If the reader doesn't mind
a large book, the STORY of Gard
ening' will prove to be interesting,
telling as it does, of gardening from
the earliest times UP to our own
time.
The government bulletins, too Of
ten give information not found
elsewhere.
The prospects are apparently in
favor of a better season in every
thing. Let's try again, it's bound to
be better.
And don't forget something special
for our Flower Show. We're going
to have a better show all around
this year. and every bit of cooper
alton will he appreciated. Put on
your thinking cap, and set goal
this year.

Your Health
by DIR. MORRIS FISHBEIN.

nat a well-balanced diet containing portions
II OF all the nutritious food substances, and you
needn't worry about getting the proper variety of
proteins in your system Furthermore, if child
will drink quart of milk day. and adult pint,
the proeins of the milk will supplement those of all
the other foods.
Dietary experts classify the proteins into animal
and vegetable types. They also separate the
plete from the incomplete proteins
But you should know that the same food may
have several different proteinS complete,
others incomplete.
Eggs, cheese, nuts, and lean meats of all sorts
contain a great quantity of complete protens So
does milk. Cereals do not provide much in the way
foods that they add up in quantity. Peas and beans
also are fairly good sources of protein.
Now you may ask, if well-balanced diet is all
that we need to provide us with protein, why does
the Eskimo for example, go to one extreme and
stuff himself with oversupply of this substance
by combining himself to meat diet and on the other
hand what happens to people who go on starvation
detS2
VXIELL, the Eskimo eats so much meat because
w he does not get bread fresh vegetables fresh
fruits, salt and sugars in other forms The meat
estimated to amount to 1000 pounds a year for a
family of four-takeS the place of all the other foods
In the case of the person on a starvation diet,
the heterogeneous protein material stored in his
body begins to be used up The protein is deprived
of its nitrogen and converted into sugar to keep I'D
the sugar supply in the blood and thus permit the
body to have sufficient fuel
Under conditions of starvation So per cent of the
weight of the protein in the body may turn to gu-
and be burned along with the fat, to supply the
body with fuel. And when the fat supply is ex-
hausted, the protein becomes the sole source of
bodily fuel
Here is the danger of the starvation diet. AS the
protein is used up for glucose, the nitrogen output
is raised and the tissues undergo serious changes
which eventually may lead to death.

you get to feeling sorry for an
old man, and you think how cruel
the world is to one individual, and
how helpless he is, and it wouldn't

pay? Have you ever been up in
an airplane, and do you cut your
own hair or does your wife cut
it?" I never could go up and find
out all about a guy quick, the way
some reporters do.
So my imagination gets going,
