Over the first lap, the Cheechacco man will do the driving and upon his return to the scratch, the Cheechacco wo- man will immediately grab the handle bars and take them around the second lap. The winner will be the team which completes the two laps in the shortest time. Registrations should be made with Secretary of the Club, Cap py" McDougall at the Nome Drug Store. A condition exacted by the Nome Kennel Club that all those participating in the race should be members of the club. A membership fee of S250 is charg- ed, which allows them to enter in races during the remainder of the season, and will also allow them 250 votes in the Queen Con- test, which will commence the first of next week.
 Funds to be raised through a membership drive, queen contest and entry fees in races are all de- voted to the purchasing of prizes for the many races and events to take place during the next two months. The girl elected as Queen of Nome will be sent to the Ice Carnival at Fairbanks & entered in the Contest for the selection of Miss Alaska, and while there the Carnival Associ- ation pays her expenses.

However. you beautiful and queen ly daughters of Nomeites, and other unmarried females are ad. vised to watch closely for further announcements concerning the start of the Queen Contest.

GOOD GARDENING
Plants Must Be Fed Well to Grow

Heaped together, they decompose and become humus, with all the clements found in manure. Every garden should have a compost pile to be used whenever soil Is needed to feed plants or to make the ground friable.
 Wood ashes have some fertilizing quality while coal ashes have prac- ideally none. The latter Is good to break up heavy soils and help to retain moisture in sandy soils.
 Bonemeal comes in and goes out of favor. At present most author ities claim it is good mostly as a slow acting fertilizer, chiefly useful for its phosphoric acid content.
 Here are recommendations for feeding different plants:
 Annual Flowers: Fertilize in the spring after planting. with super phosphate, using 10 pounds per 100 square feet, or commercial fertilizer containing 4.l2-4, four pounds to 100 square feet, or 15.30-l5, using one pound to 100 square feet, or 6-8-6, using four pounds to 100

Where and why do people become selfish?
 To answer this, we must go away, way back into childhood. We are not going to discourse on the lego" or "selfe complex with which all humans are born, and which is the first law of nature, but on environ ment and training.
 In some environments children have to be unselflst. They may be- long to large families where sharing is the order of the day. Or in very poor families where a common cause coEnpels them to help in the very effort to live.
 They learn to give and to ex- pect only what comes. Maybe they don't always give to people" cheer fully, but they learn to give to life in general, by sacrifice and denial.
 On Receiving End
 Other children, in better circun- stances or in smaller families, are likely to find the order inverted. Instead of giving as they get, they are always, or almost always, on the receiving end.
 When we stop to think just how this works out, we must wonder how some children ever learn to expand at all, or become useful citizens.
 Take the average child from the average good home today. From the day he is born, everything is done for him and he becomes the center of his world.
 Tn return we ask him merely for decent behavior, and to study his lessons. Occasionally he is expected to do some small service.
 Life isn't always 8 holiday for him, of course, but in general he finds a constant flow of benefits his way, and outside of his regular duties school, study and conform ity to hours at home he has only his own salvation to work out.
 He begins to think the world is run for children, which it is and should be, but in his small expe- rience he won't be able to see the big reasons for our kindnesses to him.

He very possibly never thinks at all. Just accepts. But all this time. every bit of trouble people take makes him the hub of his world.
 DlsillusiOnment Ahead
 We carry 1t on through youth, too. and then suddenly we turn them out of school like rolls baked to 8 pat tern, and demand that they learn to live at once on their own initia- tive; and living is giving" "striy- ing" and thinking on their own re- sponsibility.
 For the first time. then, they re- alize that the world never. gives any, thing, but demands everything of them. And they get enbittered and discouraged. It Is SO different from what has gone before, you see.
 With props removed, these young people may learn to delve, but they will be shocked, for some years, to discover that no one is behind them. That they don't get first thought and that the world Is not made for them. That they must work often without any kind thanks, or even approval, and that there is no such thing as excuse.
 These days we are trying to get at the roots of discontent. Why there is so much nervousness, and divorce, and a general feeling of abuse. To me, one of the causes is obvious. The child who is taught to give out" early in life will find a wealth of self-strength some day that will endow him far more richly than his parents dream, and make him happier.

symptoms alone. In the first few months or years there are no posi- tive symptoms which. would give even the well informed layman an inkling as to the nature of the trouble. That is. there are no speci- fic manifestations, only general and gradual decline in physical well be- ing and functional efficiency, and this the patient ascribes to anything and everything but the state of his arteries. In the vast majority of cases patients with incipient or early cardiovascular degeneration or hardening of the arteries do not come under medical observation at all; they prefer to try various nos- trums, diets, changes of climate, baths, manipulations, which they fancy will help their nerves, cir culation," digestion" or "autointox- ication." The only chance the physi- clan has to recognize incipietat CVD or arterial disease is in the examin- ation of candidates for various ap- pointments, applicants for insurance or occasional clients who wish per- iodic health examination.
 One, of the earliest recognizable signs of arterioscleroSis is visible in the arteries of the retina when the physician inspects these vessels in the back of the eye with the op- thalmoScope.
 Contrary to the popular notion of horid, full-blooded appearance and high -blooded pressure, a pallor is more characteristic in the early stages of arteriosclerosis, whether blood pressure is increased or not. Blood pressure will be considered in another talk.
 When an experienced physician wishes to determine patients physiological age (not chronological he feels the pulse and looks at the eyes. Feeling the pulse he estimates the degree of thickening or harden ing of the artery, if any, and cas- ually notes the feel of the skin. Looking at the eyes he observes whether there is an arcus sensilis, a cloudy grayish ring or bow near the outer rim of the colored part of the eye. Longevity is vascular ques- ton, as expressed in the saying that man Is as old as his arteries.

The national "cook-off'' is prac- tically on. It begins next Monday, the 29th. From six sections of this well-fed country, contestants will cook of" against each other in the second annual championship cook cry contest sponsored by the Women's National Exposition of Arts and Industries in New York.

BY DONALD GRAY Democrat Gardening COnsultant

Animal and poultry manure is considered the ideal fertilizer, but 1t IS not always available to the average small home owner. Hence the reason for the numerous chem- teal fertilizers on the market.
 Superphosphate, ammonium sul- phate, nitrate of soda. and bonemeal are sold as commercial compounds.
 Commercial fertilizers are sold un- der different trade names and con- tain different combinations of solu- ble plant foods.
 There is no one complete fertil- izer that will supply the necessary plant food for shrubs, trees, grass, flowers and vegetables. Each one needs more of one element than ali- other.
 There are three main elements important to plant life: Nitrogen, which makes for leaf growth; phos- phorus, which promotes flowers and seeds, and potash, which makes for root growth. It is useless to apply a fertilizer high in nitrogen to a vegetable, like turnip, that needs mostly potash.
 Commercial fertilizers are made up of various combinations of plant foods. Here is an analysis of some of the trade named fertilizers avail able:
 { vigoro and old Gardener analyze { per cent nitrogen, 12 per cent phosphoric acid and 4 per cent po- tash. This, in short, represents the fertilizers in the 4-l2-4 class.
 Loma has an analysis of 5-10-4, Turf Builder 10-6-4, Triple x l0- 6-4, Armour's Lawn and Garden Fertilizer 4-S-6. and c. & O. 5-8-5.
 The fertilizer usually is marked as to what plants or crops 1t is best suited for, and Its producers are required by law to show It's chemi- cal analysis. ..5.. .,:. q.
 Commercial fertilizers can be used before planting, or after the crop 4 started. The frequency and rate ot application of any fertilizer depends to some extent upon Its content ol soluble nitrogen. The greater sths quantity of soluble nitrogen in tht |fertiIizer, the more frequent shoule | De the application and the les should be the quantity applied eacl time.
