Here Are Vegetables You
Cam Plant i'm June

Hot weather calls for special treat
ment in the garden. 1t Is then that
the skill Of the gardener counts. So
long as the rains are plentiful and
nights cool, but not too cool, flowers
and vegetables will go ahead with very
troubles multiply.
Growth slows up and insect attacks
grow worse. Even If rains continue,
hot weather Is always dry, because the
heat evaporates an enormous amount
of water. Cultivation becomes vital,
not only to cut down the weeds which
are competing with the crops for sub
terranean water and food, but to create
dust mulch, which will prevent evap-
Grafton from the surface OF the soil
and conserve 1t for the plants.
1t IS now the application Of plant
ing the growth of plants which other
wise would be inclined to sulk. Insect
attacks should be dealt with upon their
first appearance, since the warm
weather not only increases the num-
Der Of the insects but diminishes the
resistance of the plants.
Where a garden can be irrigated the
complaint Is often heard that water
does not seem to do much good, and
the reason usually given Is that the
water Is cold. But II the water Is ap-
piled in a spray which Is broken up
lnto llns PalticleS IL Is Walmeo py tne
lection. It Is probable that the reason
for disappointment In irrigation, as q
rule. Is not cold water but insufficient
water.
The extent Of evaporation during hot
weather calls for an extraordinary
amount of water to balance the supply
available for the plants. The amount
possible to apply by the ordinary gar
den hose Is insufficient and Is made
less effective when sprayed through
the air. It u advisable, than. that even

She fed the chickens and helped Aunt
Nancy skim the milk and set 1t in cool
jars in the well. Toward noon, she
went out to the copSe of wood. border
ing on the south field where Uncle
Tom was cutting hay and played with
her dolls
There were six of them. Two Of
them were real dolls. The other four
were corn cobs which Uncle Tom had
carved and Aunt Nancy had dressed.
The real dolls were mother and daddy.
The others were Granny, Uncle Tom,
Aunt Nancy and Betty. She played
with them for long time, holding long
and intimate conversations with them,
dressing and undressing them, rear
ranging the clothes they wore. The
mournful note Of a train whistling
from the south came to her clearly so
she knew that the wind had shifted.
Sadness came upon her She sat do
ing nothing for long time, thinking
that she wished it was daddy and
mother instead of Uncle Tom and
Aunt Nancy who lived on the farm.
And then she heard Granny calling
her.
Diane, come up to the house. Some
body's here to see you"
All right. Granny" she answered.
I'm coming"
But she didn't hurry because she
couldn't imagine who would want to
see her. Nobody but Granny and Uncle
Tom and Aunt Nancy seemed to want
her, really. AS she passed the barn,
she glanced at the weather vane and
saw that the wind indeed had changed.
There were heavy. ominous clouds in
the sky. The arrow pointed south
east. That meant coming storm.
As she entered the empty kitchen
the sound of voices came to her from
the parlor She recognized her fathers
and her heart leaped and then dropped
as she heard him say.
I'm home to stay, mother. Helen
and 1 are through. She got her decree
and Dis custody yesterday. can see
her only once a month"
Aunt Nancy gasped and then her
grandmother said:
But there's only one grounds for
divorce in New York, Richard. Do you
mean you would stoop to such a
thing?"
"Oh, it isn't that bad" her father
explained. That was arranged"
"You mean you allowed Helen to
prove such a thing against you in
court? Why. Richard?'
Because" her father said softly
Love has gone between u.s."
That isn't true, Richard. You still
love Helen"

growth of the field which provides
facilities ranking with those Of
many larger fields throughout the
country. Construction Of the new

established on the rimrocks north

The plane entrance to the hangar
addition is on the east side of the
building where a 50-foot rolling door
has been installed. In addition to
planes the addition also houses a trac-

be moved in and out of the hangar
either on the east or south sides Of
the building.
A partition forming the south wall
of the original hangar No. l has been
left intact, but construction of the
addition was planned so that this wall
can be removed, If found advisable,
to form a single hangar structure about
100 feet in length.
With the new hangar addition the
airport can now provide storage &C
commodations for about so percent
more private planes than formerly.
Previously, private and visiting flyers
had TO anchor their machines in the
