ID Recorded Weekly BY I'll
II DrEDN,NRDI kuHLrNANN

Catholic priest, and q club w0-
man whose name / do not recall.
I served on committee appointed
to determine the winners in lawn
and garden improvement contest.
AT the close OF the contest, as we
were leaving one contestants
home, in the dark shadow OF a
porch stairway we found a dwarf
ed little zinnia plant shedding its
blossoms petals to grow an under
sized seed-pod. Noting 1t. Father
Hogan said, Just see how this
plant is struggling by growing
seeds to be able to recreate and
perpetuate it's own kind"
With this in mind, let us re-
turn to our humble little dande-
lion. 1t is autumn and take it's
tufted top in my hand and carefully
/ pluck the silken filaments and
their attached seeds from the bios
SONS stem and count them with a
surprising result. This single plant
has produced 109 little seeds each
of which is supplied with silken
wings to carry it far or near to
grow, wanted or unwanted, in some
one else's lawn or garden. Thus
this single dandelion has been able
to reproduce itself more than one
hundred times.
In some respects the history of
the church is similar to this. Like
plant it has continued to repro
duce itself from one generation to
another since that day when the
Master said, Go ye into all the
world" And in this, too, lies a
new summons to the church to full
| fill it's God-intended destiny and
plant itself widely in areas where
now it does not grow. BY educa-
ton, by publications, by mission
airy endeavors of many kinds 1t
must multiply it's own kind, not
once but many times. Only in this
way is the church worthy to live.
And now let us look at the dam
delion seeds again and this time
we look at them under a power
full enlarging glass. They are prac-
tically identical in size and their
shape and veining are remarkably
alike. The silken wings, too, are
alike in size and construction. Tt
is not by some fortuitous chance
that this is SO. 1t is God. All things
are made to conform to His all
wise creative pattern. Back of the
growing dandelion and all the So
called natural laws OF life and
growth is a formative and design
ing intelligence and this supreme
intelligence is God.
To give this thought a final ac-
cent remember the words of the
hymn:
This is my Fathers world,
And to my listening ears
All nature sings and round me rings
The music of the spheres.
This is my Fathers world;
/ rest in the thought
OF rocks and trees, OF skies and
seas;
His hand the wonders wrought

Fertilizer For The
Home Garden

The success or failure of the
Vegetable garden often depends on
the food available to the plants,
County Agent George vapaa claims.
Vegetables, like children, puppies
and young robins, need plenty of
food for fast growths.
Barnyard manure, If available
will add organic matter and nutri-
ents to the soil. Ten to 20 bushels
to each 1000 square feet Is good
application. Compost, cover crops.
leaf mold, dried manure and many
other organic materials will also
help increase the humus.
Commercial fertilizer is also
needed in the vegetable garden. An
application of 30-40 pounds per
1000 square feet of 5-10-10 or g.
1916 should be made before plant
ing. This may be plowed or spad-
ed under or worked into the top
of the soil after plowing.
Additional fertilizer applied to
certain crops is also necessary for
best results, Mr.. Vapaa says.
Vegetables such as beans and
peas should have some fertilizer
banded at the time of planting.
Banding is merely placing fertiliz-
er in a band about inches on each
side of the seed and slightly lower
than the seed About one-half
pound of 5-10-1O for each 25 feet
of row. BY making furrow on each
side of seed it's easy to handle
the fertilizer. This fertilizer is SO
placed to get the seedlings off to a
good start.
Side dressing is also important.
especially in growing green's. Two
or three applications of fertilizer
during the growing reason will in
crease the growth of all 1eafy
crops such as lettuce, spinach and
endive. This system is also worth
while with onions, carrots, tomato
and most other crops. Either a
complete fertilizer such as 5-10-10
or nitrate of soda may be used as
side dressing. About one pound of
complete fertilizer applied to both
sides of 25 feet of row is sufficient
1t may be put in furrow about
AS inches on either side of the
plant or put on top and cultivated
in, Mr.. Vapaa said.

SECRETS BACKFIRE

DENVER, Colo. tP)-Can a man
keep a secret from his wife?
Leonard H. Wilson says no.
And what about a woman's
chance of keeping a secret from
her husband?
Mrs. Wilson say there isn't a
chance.
They ought to know.
Wilson received a traffic ticket
for a moving violation He didn't
want his wife to know. Three days
later. Mrs. Wilson got traffic tic
ket for a moving violation. She
didn't want hubby to find out about
it.
Came court day. Wilson told his
wife there was a mistake in their
water bill. He'd go down to City
Hall and straighten it out. Mrs.
Wilson countered that she was go
ing downtown anyway. She'd han
die the water bill. Now, you've
guessed it. The Wilson's both went
downtown. Same day, same time,
same court, same fines ($18 sus-
pended).
Each pledged there would be no
more secrets.

A DANDELI0N TALKS TO ME

'sThis is my Fathers world,
he shines in all that's fair,
In the rustiing grass ! hear Him
He speaks to me everywhere"
1t is springtime and the other
day | picked my first dandelion of
the season. 1t lifted its golden
head beside the easel of friend
who was painting a rural land
scape in the warmth of an April
sun. AS held it in my hand / re-
called the time several years ago
when a similar dandelion aroused
my interest. This time the season
was autumn and the dandelion had
shed its blossom to become tuft-
ed ball of silken threads to each
of which was appended tiny little
seed. AS l examined it rather
closely it seemed to talk to me
and, as / study its message, may it
talk to you also.
First of all the dandelion would
talk to us about God and the mys-
terry of His being. To be more sem
sitive to its message, let us follow
the dandelion through the months
of its growth.
Early each spring, in coming up,
it pushes aside its winter bed of
leaves, like a child pushing back
the covers of the night to say good
morning. Then its shoots forth a
series of green leaves deeply
notched and lovely in design. Next
out of the plants heart there
comes forth a hollow stem that is
soon crowned with a yellow bios
som as beautiful as any you could
purchase in a florists shop. 1t all
is so wonderful.
And how does the dandeliOn do
it? BY what secret alchemy does
it take its pigments from the black
earth to clothe its leaves with
green, its stem with touch OF red
and its blossom with magnificent
yellow brighter than any you can
find in an artists paint box. Has
it life and has it feelings? / do
not know; it all is a mystery. If
| could understand it, / would be
on the Threshold of understanding
Him from whose creative hand the
dandelion has come. Do you re-
member how Lord TennysOn puts
it?
Flower of the crannied wall
/ pluck you out of the crannies.
/ hold you here, root and all, In my
hand.
Little flower-but if 1 could under
stand
What you are, root and all, and all
/ should know what God and man
is"
In the second place the dande-
lion talks to me about its own re-
productive powers. As l muse about
this, memory's magic carpet car
ries me back many years to the
city of a former pastorate and to
the time when with Father Hogan,

It's Easy To Dye
New Bath Decor
BY VIVIAN BROWN
AP Newsfeatures Writer

IF YOU ARE BORED with your
bathroom accessories, why not
give them a dye bath right in the
washing machine? It's been done
successfully by many women, who
say that it is a cinch if directions
are. followed.
: You can dye everything from
the shag rug to the plastic shower
curtain, if the curtain is vinyl
and sewed. If it is glued or heat
sealed do not try to dye it.
Clear or white vinyl plastics
can be tinted any shade except
black or navy blue. Pastels can
be tinted a darker or covering
color. Patterns may change color
if the background is clear or light,
as usually only the background
will take the tint bath.
You must start with an abso-
lutely clean article when you are
doing a dye job. Stains and dirt
should be removed by washing the
article with soap or detergent
and rinsing it thoroughly. A nail
brush is helpful in removing film
that sometimes collects around the
bottom hem.
Fill your laundry tub or wash
ing machine with the hottest tap
water available, add your dye
solution, mix well by letting the
machine run for moment or so,
then shut it off and immerse the
shower curtain. Now run the ma
chine for a few minutes or until
the curtain gets to the desired
color. Let the curtain go through
the normal run of rinses, stOpp-
ing it short of the big spin.
Bathroom shag rugs and seat
covers may be dyed in the wash
ing machine, also. Terry cloth
towels that have faded may be
refreshed in an all-purpose dye
bath. And, if you're planning a
color scheme for your bathroom,
keep in mind that waste basket
may be covered with terry cloth,
and this too may be dyed in the
washing machine along with the
other bathroom accessories. Use
a discarded or new terry towel
for your waste basket cover. Put
elastic around the top and bottom
so it may be removed easily for
washing.
