Beware of III Results of Over-watering the Garden At this time of the year and later on through the summer the question of moisture in the vegetable garden is a vital factor in the successful growth of the vegetables. All food is taken up by the plants in a liquid form, hence water must be present in a proper de gree to dissolve the plant food and thus make it available for the use of the vegetables. Quite a majority of our vegetables are largely composed of water and it is very necessary therefore that they have good quality, that they grow rapidly and be pro duced in a soil which has a good mois ture content, especially during the dry days of June, July and August. At the present time, due to the rather wet spring, there is plenty of moisture in the soil and it is not nec essary for any gardener, except he be working on a light, sandy soil, to prac tice any form of irrigation, with the possible exception of the use of water in transplanting plants to the garden. But for those vegetables that have been planted some weeks ago, cultiva tion is at present the most efficient means of giving vegetables the mois ture which they need. The work of cultivation enables the plants to get moisture in the most approved way— namely, by taking it from below at the roots, without the top strata of soil being crusted or made hard. Many gardeners get the notion at the present time, because of the dry appearance of the soil, that it is nec essary to get out the hose and possibly the sprinkler and start to water the garden. If they examine the soil care fully, they will find plenty of moisture two or three inches below the dry sur face. This dry mulch at the surface is of great importance in holding the moisture at a depth to which cultiva- tion has been made. Important tools for taking care of the cultivation efficiently and rapidly are the hand hoe, the rake and possibly a small wheel hoe, if available. The hand hoe, however, can be used to very good advantage in working up the soil while the rake is especially good in pulverizing clods and making the mulch fine at the surface. While there may be a tendency for many gardeners to take advantage of the early morning for cultivation, so far as time is concerned, yet during these morning hours the plants are of ten wet with dew, and hence it is not advisable to do much cultivation at that particular time. In some cases, if the work is done early in the morn ing, the plants will have a tendency to be diseased ; in other cases, the leaves will become dirty and the pores through which the plants breathe will be closed. If there seems to be in any way a necessity for putting on water, the irrigation should be followed by a good cultivation as soon as the ground is in suitable working condition. Under no circumstances should the garden be irrigated once a day; in many instances not even once a week unless the soil is sandy and quite por ous. Vegetables suffer from damping off, stem rot and other fungous troubles when the ground is contin ually wet and compact. This com pactness must be broken in order that the soil may be properly aerated. For many other reasons, therefore, in ad dition to the ones suggested above, it will be seen that cultivation is one of the most important factors in the maintenance of moisture during the summer months.—Professor A. G. Bou quet, Vegetable Gardening at O. A. C. ETYF erar F. M CRONKHITE P, N. U. No. 25, 1917. ALL OUR HOUSES TODAY ARE OF GLASS By CHARLES Q. SHAW, Professor of Philosophy of New York University. The man in the glass house is not supposed to throw stones. If he SOME HURLERS NOT AS breaks windows in other houses, what will happen to his fragile dwelling DANGEROUS AS THEY SEEM when the other man retaliates? At the same time, criticism is a necessary Plank, for instance, Says Cobb, Seems part of human life, just as acid is an element of food or the bitter taste to Have Eye Glued to Runner, But an ingredient in the flavor of coffee. Cannot Stop Thefts. Because a pitcher appears to be looking at first base all the time, you need not think that he is in position to throw over there. Eddie Plank, for example, seems to have his eye glued to the runner on the initial station but he cannot throw there unless he just lobs the ball and be is therefore an easy man to get a lead on. Some other men who do not seem to be paying much attention to the runner really are watching him out of the corner of their eyes. Caldwell, Bender, Coombs, Walsh and Shawkey are examples of right-hand pitchers who are hard to run bases against. Walter Johnson Is a tough one, too, because he gets the ball away so fast and throws with so much speed that the catcher is ready to peg before you are anywhere near second base, says Ty Cobb, in the American Boy. Never slide headfirst. It is danger ous to you, because the man covering the bag is likely to step on yon or jump for the ball and come down on your hand. Also, a headfirst slider is But the glass house is not only fragile but transparent. You criti- cize your neighbor and your neighbor begins to look into and through your edifice. Judge and you will be judged. Your house of glass throws your life open to the world. You see something awry when you peer into the glass windows of the other’s house, but he sees more that is questionable in you. Your glass house shields you from neither missiles nor criticism. To live in a glass house must be uncomfortable, since glass is not the proper material to use in constructing a comfortable dwelling. No one would think of calling it a home. Light comes through the roof and floor, wall and wall. In the glass house you have no privacy. You can see in all directions, but you can be seen from all directions, too. If the glass of your house were adamant you would find your vitrified dwelling uncom fortable. It could be no place for the human soul. Nevertheless, whole cities are now being built of glass houses. The house may look as though it were made of brick or concrete, but in reality it is a dwelling of glass where no private life is possible. No man liveth to himself alone. But if it is bad to live in seclusion, it is not much better to live in lack of seclusion. The need of contemporary life is to find some new form of seclusion. We must live together and eat together and travel together, but we may be able to find some new way of nourishing the private inner life. This new seclusion you must find, lest you r life be all public and miscellaneous, A man’s house is his castle, a place of defense. In your glass castle you must find the new seclusion. and there Is no use wrangling about It. Most kicks are made to cover up the player who has been called out any- way.
