YOU PAY TAXES

Do you earn $50 week or $1,000 a
year?
Then, providing you don't own an
automobile, radio, or telephone you
pay 1888 a year in taxes.
If you have a car, radio and tele-
phone you pay 5000 year in taxes, 50
the statisticians tell us. According to
a Boston University professor if you
spend 1854 for food you pay $43.96
taxes; if 1892 for clothing, then $13.17
for taxes; if 1927 for shelter, then
$93.42 for taxes; if SIS for fuel-light,
then $3.50 for taxes; if $62.72 for
house furnishings, then $3.57 for
taxes, and so on.
Polls have shown that a quarter Of
the people in the United States are
under the mistaken impression that
they don't pay taxes. That is largely
because they don't pay any income tax.
They do, however, pay plenty Of taxes
in HIDDEN taxes. Every time you
buy, you pay something in hidden
taxes. Government money is raised
in taxes. What the government spends
comes out of your pocket. Reckless
government spending is waste Of
your money. The national debt is not
just couple of words that mean moth
ing. It's a debt that will have to be
paid in taxes from your pockets or
your children's pockets.
Stop reckless spending and taxes
will go down.

Gardening Suggestions

NdI uelillS suggestions
This time Of year many flower low.
| ers are asking questions about their
ANNALS and perennials. Mr.. w. P
Ballard, Extension Horticulturists
gives US the following suggestions
about storing dahlias and TRANSPLANT
ing perennials.
Carrying DahIias Over Winter
After the frost kills the dahlia tons.
they should be cut off just above the
surface of the ground. Many growers
prefer to leave the roots in the ground
for a few days before digging but
freezing should not be allowed to in
iure the crowns. The spading fork il
good tool for lifting the roots. If
there are many plants, two men with a
fork on either side can do better Job.
Avoid breaking the connection be-
tween tuber and crown. Some growers
separate the crowns in the fall so they
can be handled easier in storage. 1t
is thought, too, that this method de-
velops buds on each division better
than when they are divided in the
/ spring.
1t is very important to provide
suitable storage conditions. If the
air in the storage quarters is too dry,
the tubers will shrivel, while too much
moisture will cause rot. Large grow
ers sometimes place the cIumps on
shelves and examine them at intervals
during the winter, spraying those that
seem to be drying out. For a few
roots packing in dry sand gives excel
/ lent results.
Transplanting PerenniaIs
October is an excellent month for
transplanting perennials. Usually
the soil is well supplied with moisture
at this time of the year and gone are
the excessively high temperatures of
midsummer. There is still time for
plants to get somewhat established be-
fore heavy freezing weather, If trans.
planting is delayed to the latter part
1 of the month, it is better to move
plants from pots or with a good ball
of earth about the roots. If there is
danger of heaving, a light mulch Of
some coarse material such as straw,
tobacco stems or pine boughs will APP
probably aid in preventing such
| troubles.
Perennial borders generally need
going over once a year. Plants have
died and need renewing or types have
proved unsatisfactory and are to be
replaced by more adaptable kinds.
New varieties or species are to be tried
and gifts from garden friends must
find a place. Many perenniaIs need
dividing every three or four years or
sometimes oftener.
Occasionally it may be desirable to
change the color scheme of the border,
or the soil has become so depleted
that it may be necessary to take up
the plants, fertilize the soil and re-
plant.
Perennials started from seed in the
spring, transplanted to nursery rows
and given good culture, should be in
excellent shape for removing to the
, hardy border at this time Of the year.
All these operations may go along
hand in hand with the annual fall
cleanup of the garden.

Fruits and Vegetables

Fruits should be eaten freely
at least twice a day-and the high
caloric dried fruits, such as prunes
and dates, may be used to adj
vantage along with bananas, or
anges, grapefruit, apples and 9TH
er fresh fruits, as well as the
many varieties that come in cans.
Cooked and raw vegetables
should be provided liberally-if
possible, at both lunch and dinner.
Dressing cooked vegetables with
butter or margarine will increase
their fuel value, and make them
more satisfying for hungry boys.
Girls, who are often finicky eaters
during their ad0lescent years, can
usually be tempted with crisp, raw
vegetables served in the form Of
salads; and protein can be added
by means Of eggs, cheese, fish or
chicken.

hat without veil is the exception
rather than the rule. In arranging
wells you are supposed to do just as
fancy dictates, the more whimsical,
the more erratic, the more altogeth-
er adorably irresponsible so far as
following form and conventions, the

Navy is classic for spring suits,
coats and dresses. The navy blue
hat of chic peach-basket variety
shown below to the left in the pic

soft pink ribbon bows nestled in
side the top of the crown. A sheer
navy veil is draped around the
crown with ends flying in the back.
This model is also available in other
fashionable color combinations.
Black hats with colorful accents
are an accepted mode for dressy
spring wear. The crown Of the
black felt Wateau, shown above to
the right, is sprightly decked with
chartreuse and fuchsia flowers. The
big bow at the back is of stiff char
treuse yelling.

MILLINERY has indeed come
AVA into its own this spring. The
new hats are everything spring
hat should be-the most refreshing
ly springlike hats that have graced

In them romance in millinery has
been recaptured.
The very ecstasy of spring
breathes through the flowers that
bedeck the pretty straws and
through the ribbons and fantastic
scarf trimmings on colorful felts
and SUICIDES, likewise through the
dainty lace and immaculate lingerie
trims, new this season, and through
the glorified spring colorings and
beyond all the final touch Of charm
is achieved via mists of frivolous
whimsical yelling that swirls and
whirls and cuts pretty capers
throughout the entire picture.
You can be as choosy as you like
in selecting your spring bonnet.
Whether you decide on one of the
very new and amusing elfsh. tall
crowns that style the latest models

Combining jacket
BEING Modernized

The fussy combining jacket" that
mother used to wear has been super
seeded by trim rubber cape which
has many other uses besides keep
ing stray hairs from settling on
clean dress or blouse. Slipped on

ing up at odd moments when there
isn't time to disrobe.
One of the newest makeup capes
on the market has a little pocket in
the form of flower for holding hair
pins, powder puff, or comb. The

Boys Need More Food Than Girls

There is marked difference be-
tween the fuel requirements Of
teen age boys and girls. Both
must have a well balanced diet.
But the boys need many more
calories, and therefore should
have a more generous allowance
of highly concentrated foods which
supply necessary fuel with a min
imum tax on the digestive system.
They should have cereals in gen.
erous-size portions-and it's advis-
able to choose part Of the cereals
from those retaining the bran and
the germ. And they'll welcome
nourishing desserts, such as Gus
tard, tapioca, bread and corr
starch buildings.

Quality Important as Quantity

During the years Of greatest
growth, boys and girls frequently
require more food than their ia
theirs or mothers. But it is es-
sential that the diet be well bal
anced and of the highest nutritive
value. It should include an album
dance of easily digested energy
foods, such as breadstuffs, pota-
toes, cereals and macaroni prod
ucts, as well as liberal quantities
Of the more concentrated fuel
foods, such as butter or marga-
rine. There must be an ample
supply of high quality protein
which is furnished by meat, fish,
eggs, cheese and milk-to build
the new muscle tissue required to
cover the frightening frames of
the boys and help build the round
ed contours of the girls.

children have been brought up
with a wholesome respect for this
master food, they will continue to
drink it during their teens.
However. if they complain about
taking it as beverage, mothers
should see that it is supplied by
way OF cream soups and sauces,
with cereals, and in nutritious pud-
ding desserts, which can be en-
riched with eggs, thus providing
additional proteins, minerals and
vitamins.

Need for Minerals and vifamins

There must be ample amounts
of the various minerals-especial-
ly calcium and phosphorus for the
teeth and bones, and to help build
sound, healthy nerves; iodine for
proper functioning of the thyroid
gland; iron for building increased
quantities of rich red blood. Every
vitamin must be included in the
adolescent's diet to promote nor
NAL health and development, but
vitamin A is especially valuable
at this time of rapid growth, and
vitamin B is also required in lib
eral amounts to meet the extra de-
mands of increased activity and
growth.

radically on the fuel foods, with
the foolish idea Of keeping fash

permitted, because it may result
in under-nutriti0n, which opens the
way to fatigue and nervousness,
and may lead to serious disease.
