A garden which U noar tlio houso will recolvo many u spurts hour of euro from adults and children which would otherwlso be wasted.' Where thoro Is ample room for the soleetlon of a garden site, the slopo of the land should be careful ly considered. A gentlo slope to wards tlio south Is most desirable for growing early crops, while It U a decided advantage to hnve the plot protected on tlio north ami north west by either a bill, a group of buildings or a hoard fonco. Dnilnago of tlio garden Is of great Importance. The land should have sufficient fall to drain off surplus water during heavy rains and yet not so stoop that tlio soil will he washed or gullied. The surface should ho noarly level so the water will not stand In hollows. Whero tlio natural slope of the land does not provide a sufficient natural drainage, dltchos may be dug or n tlio drain put In. This will prevent wnsto water from tlio adjoining land from washing over It. Such water may carry wood and grans eol Into the garden, which are In tor culled out with difficulty. Ilou to I'citUIc.

Stop and analyze tills tires the reason for the Gigantic sales increases In our tires since Sep temberlast. Many months ago we finally worked out and began producing the completely ' balanced ' pneumatic tire the heretofore unattainable goal of every tire manufacturer. To be 100 per cent, efficient, a tire must be atso lutely 'balanced' that is, the rubber tread and the fabric carcass of the tire must give equal wear. 'Balance' the tire maker's goal To bare nerfect 'bal ance' the rubber tread must have enough resil iency to absorb road shocks that tend to dis integrate the fabric, and still must hnvo the toughifess to give long wear. Too much toughness reduces 'resiliency) ton much resiliency sacrifices toughness. Problem I find the'baU auce.' Full rubber-tread effi ciency demands a SO-SO 'balance' of resiliency and toughness. I'll II fabric-carcass effi ciency demands a SO-SO 'balance' of fabric layers and rubber a union that will make tread-separation impossible. Full, complete tire efficiency demands a 50-50 'balance' of the rubber tread and the fabric carcass neither may be stronger nor weaker than the other. 4 This is the goal we have reached Jljf produriiir litis cumpttl 'balance litlwttn HUney ml toufltntft In tit lrril. untl Llwn fabric ami rtibhtr In tit carcaa, w tiv curil 100 ir tnt thcltmcv In UnlUil Slain ImlWItlualUttl i nr abftoltitfi MialaiH of waarltia? duality In but It rubber Uaaut ami (abrlo car cat Hy Stptanibarlatt, that ab aulutaly blancail Unltail htataallraa btcan i ba "fall on tha marital nee September, talcs liave Increateil teadllv month 1) month up to tho recent hiliett Increas J54 per cent. thu telli the atory nited Statesllrc Company Nobby' 'Chain' 'Usco' 'Royal Cord' Tlaln' 'INDIVIDUALIZED TIRES" 1 SATURDAY, 18th Mr. Thomas Bates of A.
