Evans said today he did not
know whether he would leave the
department or revert TO his pre-
yious rank of inspector.

Hubbard outlined his reasons for
firing Evans.
HE has been insubordinate,"
the mayor said. "He has shown
me absolutely no respect since
i have been I'm office. Evans was
appointed Just before I took Of
fee early In 1912. He was slid
in ahead OF me by former Mayor
Carey, and l had no say in the
matter.
"Since that time, Evans has
given me absolutely no cO-opera-
ton. lie went of to New York

hearsay. that there was a num-
bers game fiourishing here. 1

when ne took exception 10 re-
marks Hubbard made in his in
augural address TO the effect that

juvenation from top TO bottom.
The smear over its reputation
must be lifted completely and as
long as l am mayor Of Dearborn,
this city will be free OF vice,
graft and corruption ="
Evans is rs competent a po-
lice chief as 1 have ever met"
Bowling said angrily, when he
heard Of the statement. "He Is
one OF the best in the state. I
have asked Mayor Hubbard 10
come TO my office to talk with
me about IL.
THREAT TO MAYOR
IL realize / can't tell Hubbard
whom 20 fire or whom 10 hire,
but 1 can and will insist that he
keep politics out of law enforce
ment in Wayne County. 1 can
promise him there will be no

One can plant here from now
on until the middle of May even
until the first of June under some
weather conditions While land
that is plowed should lie a little,
land that is prepared with the spade
can be planted the same day, even
within the same hour.
"All the gardener has to do is to
plan to keep spading a bit of his
plot just ahead of the planting
during the coming weeks. Even the
office worker on the 48-hour week
can do it

or three weeks from early spring,
as soon as the ground can be safely
worked, until midsummer. For
this reason, the individual plant
ings should not be large, although
the last planting in late July or
early August may we'll be increased
to provide a quantity for winter
storage.
Since most of our soils are rather
heavy, it is preferable to plant the
half-long or stump rooted varieties
The University of Maryland recon-
mends Mantle and Chantenay red
cored for the spring and Danver' S
half-long for late fall harvest.
Because of the slowness of carrot
seed to germinate, it is desirable to
scatter a few radish or lettuce seed
in with the carrots to mark the row.
The radish seed are such strong
growers that they aid in breaking
up any crust that may form. How
ever, these markers should be re-
moved at the time of the first thin
ming.
Frequent, deep cultivation is an
aid to the formation of large,
healthy roots
If insects or diseases should at
tack the crop, it is we'll to dust with
an arsenical-copper dust. While
the carrot fly is common to the
Eastern States, it is seldom trouble
some except in old we'll established
gardens. The diseases of carrots
seem to appear most frequently in
damp situations and to avoid them
1t is recommended that carrots be
planted only in well-drained soils.
