Chinese cabbage. or celery cabbage,
as it is often called, is gaining in
popularity and would be a welcome ad-
dition to your regular list of vegetables,
especially the fall crop. 1t resembles
cos lettuce, but the leaves are more
firm and cabbage-like. 1t is fine salad
material, also delicious when boiled.
Satisfy. oyster plant. is a tasty root
with distinctive flavor which is used
in soups and stems. 1t is very hardy,
and. like its cousin, the parsnip, may
be left in the ground all winter, and
dug up for use whenever needed.
Okra Is another good seasoner to

hours were spent back there talking
with him.
In one corner of the room was an
old oak dresser all banged to hell
nothing in the room was worth

Russian girl in the early twenties so

Now place the pan or flat in a shall
low tray of water, SO that the water
comes to within half an inch of the
sand surface. Be sure the sand alb
serbs the water. Place the whole array
in sunny window, and keep the sand
covered with the glass and paper until
the seeds sprout, then remove paper
and glass to admit air and sunlight.
The seedlings may be exposed to
direct sunlight without injury, so long
as the water level is maintained con-
slant. They should grow sturdily with
out damping-off and other troubles
which often affect those grown in soil.
1t will not be necessary to feed the
seedlings for several weeks. When they
arrive at size that you think calls
for extra nourishment, prepare a nu-
TRENT solution, or liquid fertilizer,
which may be made from balanced
plant food using one-quarter the
strength recommended for mature
plants. To apply. pour off the water
from your tray and replace it with
your nutrient solution. After a few
days drain off the nutrient solution
and replace with water. The water
level should be a little higher than
that OF the nutrient solution.
Seeding plants started in this man
ner may be transplanted to other boxes,
with more space, or grown TO consider
able size by following the same meth
cd: or they may be moved directly to
the garden.
Glacier County chief., 1940-05-03

A method of growing seedlings In
sand which is kept saturated has been
developed by eXperimenters with soil
less plant culture, including United
States department of agriculture work
erS. Amateurs who have sunny win
dowS in warm room may find it
easier than the more orthodox method
of using flat boxes filled with potting
soil.
The saturated sand method calls for
flats" - shallow boxes or pans"
which are shallow flower pots Since
they are to stand in water, boxes
should be tight at the joints and pref
erably held together by a wire en-
circling the sides of the box and
frightened.
Drainage holes are more necessary
than with soil, this time to let water
in rather than out. Flats or pans must
be clean-brush off old soil The sand
must be clean of soil and other for
eign matter. Wash sand thoroughly.
To keep sand from sitting through the
drainage holes cover the bottom with
clean burlap
Fill the flat or pan with the clean
sand to within half an inch of the
top, level the sand, then SOW your
seed as in any seed box. Very fine
seeds may be broadcasted on the sur
face; larger seeds should be sown in
rows and carefully covered. Cover the
flat or pan with pane Of glass and
a paper blanket which will exclude
light.

UNEMPLOYMENT
DROPS IN STATE
NEARLY 5000 JOB PLACEMENTS
MADE BY STATE SERVICE
SINCE JAN. l
Decrease in Number of Jobless Due
Chiefly to More Mining Activity;
Further Drop Anticipated With
Opening of Outdoor Labor.

About 2.788 job placements have
been made by the state employ
ment service since the first of the
year, John w. Nelson. director. an
nounced. He said that of these
placements. 636 were made in
January, GAL in February, 1,011 in
March and the remainder in April
Last year job placements were
higher in number.
"The number of persons registered
for jobs now numbers 29,624 as COM
pared to 1922 in 1889 for the cor
responding period" Nelson said. The
decrease is attributed partly to more
men being employed in Montana
mining industry.
Our employment offices. at least in
all of the larger cities, have number
of calls for domestic workers. These
calls are difficult to fill. Some calls
for camp cooks are now coming in.
The opening up of spring employ
ment gives some cause for optimism
and hope placements will show de-
cided increase. A number of workers
are going back to former Jobs, as is
indicated by decrease in the number
of claims for benefits being received
from those who had been receiving
benefits"
The unemployment compensation
division of the commission now is pay

Two Large Blue Racer Snakes .
Killed On Orange Twp. Farm

Two large Blue Racer snakes were
killed Monday afternoon by Kenneth
Dearth of Orange township, while
he was plowing on the farm of his
father, w. S. Dearth, seven miles
southeast of Bluffton.
The first snakes killed by Dearth
was five feet, four inches in length.
He hanged it on a fence bordering
the field and resumed his plowing.
After making several rounds he
noticed a second snake going toward
the dead reptile. 1t evidently was
the mate of the first snake.
Dearth killed it also, and found it
to measure four feet in length.
Two large Blue Racer snakes were
killed three years ago near the same
spot. The field borders a small
stream, known as the Beck Ditch.
