should be late varieties and used
for storage.
Carrots do best in a sandy loan
soil that has been we'll lined and
dug to a depth of at least eight
inches. CARROTS are tap-rooted
and must grow straight down
without interference. Seed germ
mates slowly and the gardener
must keep the rows free of woods
to give seedlings a chance to be-
come established. Wedding will
be slow and painful because car
rot seedlings have very fine
foliage and are easily pulled out.
A common practice is to mix some
early radish seed with the car
rots When sowing. The radishes
will terminate in few days, mark
the rows clearly, and inciden-
tally, provide the earliest of all
root vegetables. They are ready
long before the carrots have at
tanned much size.
Thinning should start when the
carrots are about pencil thickness
and continue gradually until the
remaining ones are two inches
apart. The Trimmings are deli
cious. Seed is lightly sown, COW
cred with an eighth of an inch of
soil, and tamped. If the soil is
dry, moisten furrow before SOW
ins seed. Do not water after SOW
ing as it will cake the soil and
retard termination
Recommended carrots include
Red Cored Chantenay, Tender
sweet, Supreme Half Long, and
Hutchinson. The last is a heavy
yielder for winter storage nearly
foot long and sometimes two
inches thick.

BEAUTIES HINTS
Makeup ''MustS"
For Foreign Duty
BY ALICIA HART
NEA Staff Writer

You can make a girl friend or
relative serving in a war area hap
pier, if in that package from home,
you'll include some beauty aids
which she may not be able to get.
If there's any doubt about that,
check the lis of most-needed
beauty aids flown by the Red Cross
to 100 recently liberated U. S. Army
nurses in Manila.
From the House of Dorothy Gray,
which supplied these aids, come tips
on what tops the list of morale
builders. They are face powder,
rouge, lipstick, lipstick refills,
busting powder, and deodorant,
which can be sent anywhere with
the exception of recently liberated
areas in the Philippines for which
postal rulings have not yet
been formulated).
The weight of your package
must be limited to five pounds, its
measurements in combined length
and girls to 81 inches. The re-
cipient must have an A. P. o. num-
Der, and in case of a girl soldier,
there must be letter of request.

Grandma was a great one for

mutton suet. She liked the way
mutton suet disappeared as it
