WEATHER WIKPOMfWt
HOME GARDENERS
Garden operations In the spring are
governed more by calendar than by
the thermometer and rain la more a
deterrent than frost in delaying
things. -
Many seeds can be 'sown Just as
soon as the ground is dry enough to
work, once the deep frost Is out of
the soil. Spinach, radishes, onions,
beets, carrots, lettuce are all hardly
vegetables which pay sm&U attention
to frost. A hard freeze may destroy
seedling plants if a warm spell coaxes
them up. and is followed by a cold
wave which freezes the ground again.
Many eager gardeners willingly as
sume this risk in order to gain the
advantage which early planting gives
when everything goes well.
Those- who wish to minimize the
risk may do so by Inquiring of their
local weather bureau, what was the
date of the latest killing frost ever
recorded in their locality. Experi
ence has shown that through most
of the United States, the last killing
frost in an average spring Is about
thirty days earlier than the record
late freeze, which Is of course a rare
phenomenon. Figure on an average
spring and sow your seed three or
four weeks ahead of the late freeze
record, and you will seldom have any
trouble with hardy vegetables or
flowers.
There are some hardy ones which
cold soil may rot, even when temper
ature does not Injure them. The
wrinkled peas are the most Import
ant in this class. If you wish to
plant peas when you put in your
first hardy seeds, use the smooth
seeded varieties, as they resist rot
better.
Plants of hardy vegetables which
MIm Bcu Dak a, Society Editor
TOepluM Main too Dntll :J0 . m.
have been started Indoors are likely
to be more tender than outdoor seed- t
lings. Cabbage, cauliflower and head
lettuce plants are commonly so start
ed, and should not be set outdoors
until the likelihood of severe frost
has passed. Seedlings may sometimes
be obtained which have been started
outdoors south of your locality where
spring is earlier, and which have been
hardened to light frosts. But the
advantage of early setting out ot
plants Is not so great as early seed
sowing; the plants continue to grow
indoors without risk while you wait
for safe weather.
Health
COM) IN THE EVE
What Is commonly called a cold
in tho eye or pink-eye Is really an
inflammation of the conjunctiva,
that is, the membrane covering the
eyeball. It is caused by germs.
At times the onset of this condi
tion may be bo sudden that tho pa
tient believes he has a foreign body
In his eye. As the condition pro
gresses the evidence of Its Inflamma
tory nature becomes clear, for min
ute pieces of pus and mucus are to
be seen around the eyelashes.
The eyeball itself may become brick
red In color, due to the congestion
of the blood vessels. The Inner sur
faces of the lids are also red and the
lids themselves may become thick
ened, i
Treatment of this condition, calls
for frequent and gentle washing with
a mild lotion. Such a lotion can be
made out of boric acid, 2 per cent, I
table salt, borax or sodium bicarbon
ate. - I
The eyes should be washed with
the lotion three times daily and of-,
tcr each washing a drop of some mild
antiseptic should be . dropped within
the lower lid. Ten per cent argyrol
or 5 per cent ,protargol. these two
being silver compounds, may be em
ployed. ,
Before going to bed it is Important
to grease the eyelashes and the lid
margins with petrolatum. This will
prevent the lids from sticking to-1
got her during sleep. Should the lids
become adherent, the sufferer ex
periences much annoyance, and heal
ing is retarded because the drainago
of the secretions Is interfered with, i
At times the conjunctivitis Is lim-)
ited to the corners of the eye. In this '
condition the -redness is seen at the
eye margins and it extends a little!
on to the skin surface. Flakes or
small collections of mucus and pus
may bo seen at the eye margins. !
This condition usually responds to '
the treatment described above, but
in addition requires further treat-'
ment with zinc sulphate, which
should be administered under care
ful medical supervision. " 1

HEEL-LESS SANDALS
Heel-less and low heeled sandals
are one of the surprises for spring
that will tempt the venturesome. For
afternoon, the low heeled slipper be
comes elegant in dark tone velvets.
Evening sandals may be absolutely
guiltless of heels, or have a low heel
to conform to this new fashion. They
can be fashioned of gold or silver,
crepe or satin, and their color Is a
matter of choice matching, contrast
ing or accenting the ensemble. Belne
sandals In the truest sense of the
word, toes are revealed; but heels may
be open or closed.
The evening headdress Inspires tho
finishing touch to these very new
and exciting sandals. They wear tiny
tiaras across the instep, of rhlne
s tones, gold links 'or braided gold or
silver kidskin.

FASHION NOVELTY
PARIS () Islnglasa belts are a

If you aro being tailored for spring
and plan to wear a slipover sweater
with your suit, you will probably
want a scarf to relieve tho crew
neckline. The very newest thing you
could possibly do about It, is to wear
a short scarf tied ascot fashion high
around your neck, and tuck the ends
inside your sweater. Then trot out
your favorite brooch, and pin it to
your sweater to secure the scarf.
Double-headed pins are the smartest
for this brooch-and-scorf ensemble

IIALP-SIE CORSETS
It Is surprising, but true, that lots
of women don't know that corsets
como in half sizes, although they
may be convinced they can't wear
anything but a half size dress. If you
are being fitted to a corset, you may
emerge triumphant with a half size,
and not even know It. But If you
are dashing in and asking for tho
same size corset you bought lust time
you may be risking that little extra
something a half size one way or the
other could do for you.
