Then when the plants such as radish,
carrots, beets, peas, etc., are taller the
common hoe can be used to cultivate

able, will work more quickly but will
have to be used with care when the
seedlings are yet small. The rake is
one of the best tools to use between
rows wide enough to accommodate it.

DIVORCE DECREES ILLEGAL
Affidavit Most Be Made Defendants
Sot la Military Service.
Anxious to legalize divorce decrees
granted to them during the past month,.
four plaintiffs who won decrees since
March 8, last, yesterday filed affidavits
in the Circuit Court'setting forth that
the defendants are not now in the
military service of the United States.
This action was taken in view of the
announcement by Presiding Judge Mor
row that a r ederal act approved March
8 forbids the granting of default de
crees unless the plaintiffs first file
affidavits that the defendants are not
in the military service. The act further
provides that If the plaintiffs cannot
make this affidavit they must file suf
ficient bonds to protect the. defendants
in case further litigation Is started.
More than 50 divorce decrees since
March t are held to be void under the
act.

Wilbur Methodist Episcopal Church,
a downtown congregation, meeting in a
ballroom and growing rapidly in popu
larity, will have some additional at
tractions this Sunday when the mem
bers will assemble as usual in the Mult
nomah Hotel for divine service.
To give mothers who live in hotels
and apartments and others who wish to
attend church an opportunity to enjoy
the sermon and song, the Wilbur Church
has arranged to have a trained worker
present to take care of the little chil
dren in another room in the hotel. This
will afford the best of carp and enter
ttainment for the babies and tiny tots,
and will be a chance for the parents to
get an hour or so uninterrupted by
tired, wriggly youngsters, who cannot
understand the sermon, or who find it
a bore to keep quiet so long.

Guy Fitch Phelps, D. D., who has just
returned from Washington, will preach

Early 9prtaa- Caltlvatloa.
THE appearance of some early vege
tables, such a peas, green onions,
radishes, lettuce, turnips or kohlrabi,
etc, and the alternating sunshine and
rain makes It necessary to keep the
soil from forming a crust. A light dust
mulch on the other hand will conserve
moisture to the greatest possible ex
tent. It is Important that the soil
stirring be done at a time when the soil
will readily crumble and not be touched
until that time. When vegetables are
small, the cultivation may be rather
deep and close to the plants, but as
they grow larger It should become
more shallow and further from the
row.
Cultivation when weeds are small
and the plants yet low growing can be
quickly done by a shove, scuffle or
push hoe. The hoe named has a longer
handle than the ordinary weeding hoe
and I quickly pushed along under the
top surface of aolL skimming off the'
weeds and leaving a light mulch.

Nu Bone Corsets
Ae sold through our own shops and by our trained
corsetieres. We specialize in CORSETS. Our
women are trained for this particular work and are
capable of giving intelligent advise when choosing
the model best suited to your figure.
FIGURE BUILDERS
Na Bone ha taken Its place at the very top as a figure builder. Flow
ery advertisements frequently lead women to believe that they can
Immediately be transformed from an abnormal to a perfect type: this is
unreasonable to expect in most cases, but by using the model designed
for your particular figure, you will very eoon realize the advantages of
wearing Nu Bone.
MODELS FOR EVERY
TYPE
There Is ae much difference In the contour of
figures aa in the expression of faces. Realiz
ing this, we long since decided to handle
NuBone In such manner that our shops and
corsetieres would have access to the scores
of models we manufacture, enabling them to
fit each customer in their own model. In
stead of altering garments that we designed
for an entirely different figure.
If you wish service in your own home, we will send one of our trained
corsetieres, who will confer with you regarding your needs. There
will be no obligation on your part unless you are satisfied that
NU BONE is what you have been looking for.
