announcement
We f6el confident that you will agree with our
action after you have carefully considered our expla
nation. ThtZIiight of the present 5-cent loaf has neces
sarily tw-cut down until the quality of the loaf is
lost. 'W-T-jinnot make a lasting, good tasting loaf of
: bread fiff 1 so little dough and we cannot increase the
: weightlough, because the cost of flour and other
: ingrediews will not permit a living profit.
We feel that our reputation will not permit us to
put upon the market a loaf of bread that is not up to
our standard. It is not our intention to give you a
5-cent loaf and charge you a dime for it. We are go
; ing to give you a much better quality in a ten-cent
: loaf than you are now getting in two 5-cent loaves.
Effective April 1st
By eliminating the labor of baking the small
loaves, we shall be able to spend more time on the
larger loaf, and will expect to improve the quality.

TIMELY HINTS FOR
! THE HU.UK GARDEN L'R.
WASHINGTON, D. C, March 21.
OuloDa, like potatoes, are a staplo
crop that is crown commercially on
a very extensive scale. The home
! gLrdener, however, may like to have
! a few early homegrown onions for
his table, or. If space permits, he
may wish to grow enough of later
varieties to last his family through
the winter. The onion will thrive
under a wide range f clinic. tc and
soil conditions, but a rich sandy ioum
containing plenty of humus is best
suited to it. As the crop requires
shallow cultivation and it may lie
necessary to resort to hand work in
order to keep it free from weeds, It
is very desirable that the land sho lid
be In such condition that it is easily
worked. As a general rule, it Is
well to have the crop follow some
i other one that has been kept under
the hoe and free from weeds the pre
viouB season.
In the north, seed is sown as early
in the spring as the soil ran be
ibrought to the proner condition.
There are three methods of propa
gating onions: the first, by sowing
the seed In rows where the crop is to
grow; second, by sowing the seed
In specially prepared beds and trans
planting the seedlings to the open
ground; and third, by planting sets
which have been kept through the
winter.
Onions planted from sets will ri li
eu earlier than those from seed sown
In the fields. When the transplant
ing method Is used, the seed is sown
In greenhouses, hotbeds, cola frames,
or specially prepared beds at the rate
of 3 Mi to 4 pounds for each acre to
be planted. The seedlings are trans
planted when they are somewhat
smaller than a lead pencil and rather
stocky. The root' end of the seed
ling is pushed into the soil with one
linger and the soil Is then firmed
about the plant.
The seed is sown thickly in drills
about 12 to 14 Inches apart. Aftor
the plants become established, they
are thinned to 2 or 3 inches apart.
The maturity of the bulbs may be
hastened by preventing the continu
ed growth of the tops. This is some
times accomplished by rolling an
empty barrel over tho rowb and
breaking down the tops. After these
are practically dead, the onion bulbs
may be pulled up by hand from the
soli and spread In a dry, well-ventl-latod
place to cure.

FARM IjOAN HOARD RATES.
WASHINGTON, March 20. The
federal farm loan board adopted a
resolution fixing a rate of 4 V4 per
cent to be paid on farm loan bonds
to be issued as a means of raising
money to lend to farmers. At I ho
same time the board fixed a rate ot
5 per cent to be paid by farmers on
farm mortgages for the use of funds.
The difference of one-half of one
per cent Is to be used to pay the ex-!
penses of operating the system. The;
board hopes ultimately to bring this
margin down to onc-olghth of one'
per cent.
