Train as Shade

Remember that the vines may
we'll be used TO cover fences or
HHsightly objects. or TO give
shade where il isswanted. Pick
a sunny location and preferably
one that is sheltered from the
wind.
Plant the seeds an inch or less
deep. depending on the size of
the seed and firm the soil over
the place of planting. Allow
each vine plenty of room in
which to grow and feed, Keep
plants well cultivated, otherwise
only stalemate (male) flowers
may form.

gen, may all be used. But what
ever fertilizer is used must be
given at the beginning of the
season and must be mixed thor
oughly with the soil.
Gourd vines do not respond
too well to fertilizer added later
in the season. They tend to run
TO leaf and vine at the expense
of flower and fruit-So add the
fertilizer and take no chances.
Where to grow gourds ? Prac-
tically any place. I've seen them
grown commercially by the acre
in the open field. On the other
hand I've also seen them grown
in tubs standing on the steps
of porcheS in the city, trained
upward TO the roof. with. the
fruit lying emit and they seemed
just as happy one place as the
other.

Crops Overlap

The early or new carrots are
usually marketed in punches
with the tops on, and the late
crop with the leaves trimmed
off.
In buying beets and carrots
be guided by the condition of
the vegetables tn @ m I've s
rather than by whether their
leaves are attached, the WA
advises shoppers. The best buys
are freSh-looking, firm but ten
der smooth and clean. Poor
buys are flabby, wilted or dis
colored. BeetS. with Stringy
roots or many leaf scars
around the neck are poor
quality.

Now's the Time
To Plant Gourds
BY ISABEL FUCKER
Detroit Times Garden Editor

IT'S JUST the right time for
me 10 write about planting
gourd seeds. before I'm over
wbelmed with letters asking
about gourds. The interest in
these strange fruits seems to
grow each year.
Here in Michigan, the latter
part of May or the beginning of
June is the ideal time to plant
the seed because gourds like
warm soil and this is when our
earth warns up from the heat
OF the sun.
There can't he too much sun
or warmth for gourds-they
Just love both. They also delight
in rich soil, and IT can hardly
be too rich.

mans shot them down. There was
no trick too dirty for them.
For the past two years, on q sin
gle full-moon period. IN average OF
80 or 100 British planes landed in
various parts Of France. That goes
far to explain why the Allied GHQ
knew almost everything of impor.
tance about the Germans in France.
BY radio and by plane they were
flooded with information. No mat
ter how many the Gestapo arrested
and killed, they could never shut
on this flow of information.
Once there was an important
scheduled landing, but the location
of the field was bad. We had al
ready used it twice before. It was
most dangerous to use 1t again
but We had to do 1t. One of my
finest men was in charge. Before
he left that night he gave me his
watch.
You know I've got q son whom
I've never seen. He Is 8 months
old. I want him to have my watch" I"
Leon said.
I was sure that he knew things
were going wrong that night. We
had IL men around the field. The
plane landed safely. Just as 1t took
of so Germans opened fire. Not
one Of our II comrades escaped.

Judge Holds Services
Control Men Anywhere

BY the Associated Press.
PORTLAND. Me. Aug. 29.-Ruling
that Army and Navy jurisdiction
does not depend on where person
mel is at the time. Federal Judge
John A. Peters refused to free a
Navy man imprisoned for man
slaughter.
The ruling came yesterday after
Samuel A. Rosborough, Miami, had
petitioned for a writ of habeas cor
pus, claiming the Navy 'court-mar-
tial which sentenced him lacked
jurisdiction.
Rosborough said the merchant
ship on which he served as a men,
ber of an armed guard flew the
Panamian flag and was not a public
vessel of the United States.
Judge Peters said he could find
nothing in the record" to SUBJ
stantiate the claim, adding: The
jurisdiction to try this man for a
crime which was a serious breach
Of discipline did not depend upon
where he was at the time he was a
member of the armed forces"
Rosborough now is serving a 10
year sentence for manslaughter in
the death of merchant ship officer
In Montevideo, Uruguay, in 1912.
