is 8 loam to sandy loam, then a longer type carrot, such as the Chantenay, will grow well there.
 A few hills of cucumbers in the garden will supply an ample quan- tity for the family. The Early Fortune or any of the White Spine varieties will grow fairly large for slicing and salads. They make good pickles, too, if picked young.
 Dependable very early varieties of lettuce are the New York or Wonderful, an iceberg type, and the Big Boston, the butter type. The Grand Rapids variety will supply your table during the hot summer months. This is a loose- leaf lettuce, and generally can be grown during the entire season.
 There are many varieties of peas, but the Worlds Record, the Little Marvel, and the Laxto- nian are the most popular of the small growing varieties.
 When 1t comes to peppers, the World Beater and the California Wonder are good producers.
 The Scarlet Globe radish for early planting. and the Icicle va- riety for summer and early plant ing, are recommended.
 Spinach is a spring and fall crop and cannot be grown during the heat of the summer. For Q spring crop. the regular Savoy variety is recommended, and, for the late crop. the Virginia Savoy or the Old Dominion varieties.
 Tomatoes of the highest quality are the Marglobe. the Pritchard. and the Rutgers. F0 ra pink t0- mato, the Globe and the Acme are good. The PrItchard variety does not lend Itself to stalking pur- poses.

variety unfit for planting. Since 1t helps to know the names of varie- ties which other gardeners have found satisfactory, some of them are listed here.
 Hybrid sweet corn varieties like the Top Cross Bantam or Golden Cross Bantam are resistant to a common disease called wilt" The ears are to 8 inches long and have golden yellow kernels.
 The Bountiful bean is tender and fiat, and the Tendergreen is string less round-podded variety. If you have 6 fence for 1t, the Kentucky Wonder is a good climbing variety.
 The Crosby's Egyptian beet is an early spring beet of quality, and the Detroit Dark Red is late or fall variety.
 The Marion Market cabbage is re- slstant to the dreaded Fellows disease and natures early. Where this disease is not serious, the Golden Acre variety is pre- ferred by many. Late varieties of cabbage, as the Danish BaIihead or Flat Dutch, should be selected for kraut or for winter storage pur- poses.
 If your ground is heavy. a ahort- growing carrot like the Oxhcarl should be planted, and k your soil

the early ana modern history Of our country,
 It is generally understood that this new series will make It's ap pearance some time during the summer. It has not been planned, so far, to have these issues sup plant any now in use. The army and navy stamps are to be used merely asc cOmmemoratives. There seems to be no doubt about one point in connection with the new series and that Is the fact that two of the navy stamps will be issued in honor of John Paul Jones and Admiral John Barry. This will be done in order to settle q cOntrO- versy that has existed for years between staunch admirers of these two great naval heroes. The presi- dents wide association with the navy and army shOul denable him to make the best of the suggestions offered and to pick the most rep- rcsentative men from the service. Regarding those who are to be , hOnored by army stamps, he will probably call for some opinion be- fore making his final choice.
 According to Post Office Minis ter Georges Mandel of Paris, Tropan o v1oato1 Srn,spa,,xo ntv.al1n~. to thoshe existing in many other countries, is shortly to be opened by the post office department there. Various documents and ob- jects relevant to the history of the postal service will be contained in the meseum, as well as collections of French and foreign stamps that have been preserved in the archives of the department.
 The statement from France reads: Our department possesses a considerable number of rare and curious specimens which deserve to be known to the public. The col- lection is at least as important as some of those exhibited with pride by other countries"
 H. l.. Lindquist, publisher of Stamps magazine, has announced the acquisition of the Stamp Col lectors Digest, formerly published by James A. Morton of Brooklyn, N. Y. For the present the Digest will lbe abandoned, though there exists the possibility of taking up the matter of publishing 1t at . later date.
 From Rome comes the news that the Italian Philatelic societies have petitioned the government to issue sanctions" stamp, mark ing the shameful date" of Novem- Der IS, 1885, when the League of Nations imposed sanctions on Italy. The petitions requests that the value chosen should be IL 25. which is used on foreign letters, "so," as the report reads, that foreigners may be reminded of the odious act and be given a proof of Italy's unshakeable faith in her destiny"
 Inasmuch as the Universal Pos- tai Union at Berne has always been averse to the use, in foreign correspondence, of designs that might give offense to foreign countries, it is believed that if a sanctions" issue is released, 1t will not be of the IL 25 value.

WHY NOT A FULL REPORT

In looking the published reports of the monthly
meetings of county supervisors it to us that they
could be extended little and better the purpose
for which such publicity is intended also, believe that
the average tax payer would rather prefer that way
In the items shown in these reports is mentioned
that kind of supplies has been bought the amount
paid and to whom 1t does not enlighen the tax payer
whether the went for mouse trap, bull dog or
steamboat the quality quanty. We think the tax
payer would like to know what he is buying and about
what kind of bargain he is getting Of course, the
ords open for inspection but, ordinarily the that
pays much taxes doesn't have time to be running to the
records after board meeting th purpose of pub
cation is to make this unnecessary.
A in private business who has employe at
tend to his affairs and spending his money would likely
want comprehensive report than a sundres and
and-so-forths expense account
Saving expense in printing may be reason for this
brevity and any conservative action that direction is
laudable yet think the public would approve especi
ally if they realized what bargain the court gifts in
printing If other transactions conducted SINH
lar basis doubtless there would be enough saving such
items to afford more exhaustive report.
