water comes to within half an inch of the sand surface. Be sure the sand absorbs the water. Place the whole array in 8 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 main- tained constant. They should grow sturdily without damping-off and other troubles which often affect those grown in soil.
 It 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 nutrient solution, or liq- .uid fertilizer, which may be made from a balanced plant food using one quarter the strength recom- mended for mature plants. To ap- ply, pour of the water from your tray and replace it with your Iutri- ent solution. After few days drain of the nutrient solution and replace with water. The water level should be little higher than that of the nutrient solution.
 Seeding plants started in this manner may be transplanted to other boxes, with more space, or grown to considerable size by fol- lowing the same method; or they may be moved directly to the gar- den.

The organization will conduct contests to select the best boy driv- CTS in each state and in the nation, with scholarships to be awarded the winners" MT. Ford said.
 More than million boys reach driving age each year." he explained, "and extensive oranized efforts should be made to help them become ood drivers. That is our purpose in forming the Ford Good Drivers league. We want to help boys throughout the country, and at the same time to emphasize and make more valuable all other good driving movements"
 MT. Ford said that the formation of the league grew out of small program the company had con- ducted in recent months to show boys that it is smart to drive safely.
 "The results of that effort have been so encouraging that we now are undertaking this much wider program which we believe will have the endorsement and cooperation of parents everywhere, and of every organization interested in safe driv- ing.
 We are going to make every ef- fort to see that the Ford Good Drivers league is of real interest to boys, and that it is effective in help- ing them to become better drivers. Final details now are being worked out and will be announced soon."

A method of growing seedlings in sand which is kept saturated has been developed by experimenters with soilless plant culture, includ- ing United States Department of Agriculture workers. Amateurs who have sunny windows in warm room may find it easier than the more orthodox method of using fiat 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 wire encircling the sides of the box and frightened.
 Drainage holes are more neces- sary than with soil, this time to let water in rather than out. Flats or pans must be clean-brush of old soil. The sand must be clean of soil and other foreign 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 3eed as in any box. Very fine seeds may be broadcasted on the surface; larger seeds should be sown in rows and carefully covered. Cover the flat or pan with a pane of glass and a paper blanket which will exclude light.
 Now place the pan or flat in a shallow tray of water, so that the
