If your p.inli'u or mrt of It hnK'iis to 1 uin'st n:ul Uw ground, su.-lj crops u celery, oiiIoiih uud tale c;u-t:.!ilitT8 will do hcst there. If it is hlfe-h, warm and dry t-oil it in utrticu lurly adapted to early peas, heaus and otLer crops w tilth you niouu to force. If you have plenty of room you may crow sweet corn, melons, squashes and otlicr spreading plants in addition to the ones which may be planted closely to gether. Ajound the edges of your gar den you have probably discover ed places for iiermauont bed of asparagus and rhubarb, for a few strawberry DlaUs and itossl- i bly for some other small fruits, like currants, the bushes of which bear annually. As for tlie bulk of your prod- uce, please your own taste and that of your family, always re- memberin;,' that It Is better In a small garden to specialize on a few vegetables, preferably those like string beans, peas and rad- Isbes, which taste better the fresher they are, than to grow little driblets of everything, but not enough of any one thing to be worth the trouble.' Suggestions for early planting in an ever so small garden )Has, beets, currots, radishes, parsnips, lettuce, salsify, kohl- raid, onions, spring spinach and (if enough room) potatoes. 4 Later crops can lie planted when some of these have been gathered, National Emergency Food Commission. . I ! MAKING TOWN FAMERS ' TO LESSEN FOOD COST National Emergency Food Gardan Commission to Create a Million Mora Gardem. When the school and home garden ing movements started In the United States a score of years ago few per sons foresaw that some day this minia ture farming of urban lots might prove of great economic benefit to the entire population. Up to the 'present the nmveuient bus been fostered as a so cial service-to give bujs and girls habits of Industry and to afford to dwellers In congested districts enjoy heMitliful and nrofltable occupa tion iu their leisure, with Incidental aid in beautifying cities and towns by cleaning up tlie back yards mid vacant lots. The present food crisis, which way beanie more acute In tlie event or n serious war, seems to have brought the day In which the Idle lands within American municipalities are likely to become an important source of food supply. So seriously is the mutter re that a number of well known 1 educators tind philanthropists have or ganized in Washington the national emergency food garden commission, devoted to the purpose of putting 1, 000.000 men, women and children on city and town gardens this spring to raise vegetables for their families. Charles Lathrop Tack, president of the American Forestry association, Is the originator of the movement und the head of it. With him are associa ted among others Dr. Charles W. Eliot of Cambridge, Mass.; John Crier Ilih ben, president of rrineeton university ; Carl Vrooman, assistant secretary of Agriculture; Capt. J. B. White, mem ber of the United States snipping hoard ; Albert W. Shaw, editor of Sys tem magazine: Emerson lleJimm oi New York, John Ilays Hammond of New York, Fairfax Harrison of Vir ginia, Luther Rurbank of California and Hon. James Wilson, former sec retary of agriculture. The plan adopted by the commission Is first to create garden volunteers by making the dwellers in citic and towns realize the danger In the food situation this year and then to give these volunteers daily instruction in gardening from the sprouting of seeds in hotbeds to the harvesting of the ripe crops.- The ambition of the commission iu create 1,000,000 new gardeners Is con- ,., tu-t. Tlie hureau of education es timates that there are 6,000,000 school children capable of cultivating garuen vrrt while within our cities auu towu3 there Is probably an equal num. her of adults who have tlie leisure iw such work. Growing Okra or Gumbo. -rh. hnmp irardener will usually find it advantageous to grow small quanti ties of certain specialties wnieu win add to tlie attractiveness of the family fare and which few housewives .will trouble to buy. Among these may be mentioned oUra or gumbo. The young pod" of t!lls Pla,lt ve the part used. These are employed principally iu soups, to which they im part a pleasant flavor aud a sticky i-onsisiency. ine ihui p.s are gn). n young plains, but If the nds are removed before they are allowed to ripen til? plants will continue to pro dure them until killed by frost. Tlie seeds of okra tdiotild be sown In the oien after the ground has leeouie 'luitc warm. 'or the plants may be started In berry hoses In the bottal and transplanted In the garden after all danger of frost has passed. The rows should le four foot apart for the dwarf sorts and five feet apart for the tall kinds, with the plants two feet 4art In the row. IKlTGHEN FANCY PASTRIES.

The giant petrel of the arctic regions will feed on offal until it is bo absolutely gorged as to be unable to rise off the ice in flight. Then it runs along the ice if chased, spreading its wings out as sails. Be fore being captured, nowever, ine netrel will suddenly stop and dis gorge a quantity of food and then j go off on a run again. If overtak-1 en a second time it win repeat uie i nerformance and when once it has got rid of its dinner flies away. Rebuking an Emperor. Once, so the story goes, Emperor Nicholas of Russia asked Liszt to play in his presence. The musician complied, but during the perform ance the czar started a conversation with an aid-de-camp. Liszt stopped plaving at once. The czar asked what was the matter. "When the emperor speaks," said Liszt, every one must be silent." The czar smil ingly took the hint, and the playing proceeded. District of Columbia. The District of Columbia was originally called the territory of Co lumbia, but it was soon changed to district as a more convenient term. In fact, the term "district" was in use before "territory," and for many years Kentucky was designat ed n' district of Virginia and MainJ a ditrict of Massachusetts. (THE StltTO DtCLEHiMStL.) ItlKiW-BCUT TOBACCO. AND INTtNOU5'Wi !T JUST AS LONG AS IWANT TO.REGARDLESSCFWHAT AHf OKI DOES 1 1 WHAT makes tobacco good is the sap there is in the leaf to start with and the way it's curcd-somc tobacco is sappier than others. H you take a big chew of W-ll CUT, you may find it too rich for you. f Take a little chew-it's made of fine, sappy, leaf; there s a lot of tobacco satisfaction stored away in it. The touch of salt brings it out, without so much chewing; and a Unit chew lasts and satisfies.
