A SpSttCH J r T(NK tie tM5 STOCK IN SOMS CON AND 33UNVON The ultimate success of a home Harden depends largely upon the in terest of the aardener bcin" main tained throughout the season. Many persons have gotten the idea that wheli the trarden is planted and cul tivated two or throe times their work has ended, and as a result the trarden soon Koss to weeds or is destroyed bv insects and diseases. The success ful irnrdenor. declare the sliccialists of the United States department of! agriculture, is the one who waces a , continuous fight asainst the enemies of the Harden from the vorv' start, never shirking his duty and bcinz evcrlastinulv in the job. A crop of weeds can be destroyed in a few moments bv means of a steel rake or a noe. if it is used when the weeds are iust coming thromrh the ground. Jf allowed to remain, the weeds become firrtilv rooted and a thorough renovation of the garden is necessary to rid it of them. 1 Seem Innocent, Bnt They're Xot A fewold fashioned hardshell po tato bnffs mov not appear to do nnv great harm, but the crop of soft slielled beetles they produce will ent the leaves from the potato vines al most before vou know thev are pres ent. A few spores ot some mildew or other diseas may not do nnv great amount of damnge, but if the weather is favorable for the spread of the disease il will soon cause the loss of the entire crop. The old adage of ''A stitch in time saves nine" applies with double force to the care of the garden. Kecrt up interest in the garden anil make suc cessive plantings of various crops, so that a continuous supply of vege tables may be provided for the table. There is nothing gained bv having the land lie idle, and it is easier to keep it clean if there is a puving crop upon it. " " ' " ' ' - "Seed " Gardens Show Neglect Too often gardens with n "seedy" appearance are nccn in the middle of the summer. The brush on which the peas were grown or the wire trellis on which .thev were trained s left with the remains of the crop upon it, and- general unsightliness rales the entire plot. It is a little more trouble to keep things neat and attractive, but it pnvs in the long "run : and if you as a gardenerwant to maintain a reputation for a good garden, the necessary attention will have to be given to its neatness nnd genera! nu pearance. . .'.'.; , . In sections where the weather be comes cxtrenjelv hot in summer and it .is not possible to keep the gnnlcn crops growing, the land should be cleaned, rcplpwed and kept st!rrcd from time to timi i-ntil cord:lions are f-irtablc for t!;2 n'nnt' of. fall vceetaliicH.

IT'S Ttfta NOW To START TRrtfr)tN THE UTTt-S- GiRl'S FOOT T A, CONS, Care During Summer Needed by Gardens grown tnxin the garden land. This will shade -the soil and prevent the sun burning the organic matter out of it. ami at tho sunie'time will ae tua'lv add fnrtil'tv to "the soil. Kaenil Work liirly nnd JmIc The enemies of the garden begin work iust as soon as the seeds arc planted in the ground, nnd it is a continuous tight throughout the sca osn. The gardener who hangs up his hoe and forgets his garden also hangs up his chance of winning. Hv far the best results can be procured where the garden is given frcciuent. short periods of attention. Later in the season special care should be given to clearing nwnv'tlio remains of the crops and destroying nnv pfants that are hndlv infected with diseases, or that harbor insects in nnv form. COMMUNICATION. Favors General "Wood To the Editor: Various reasons have been advanced to account for the growing 'heller that Leonard Wood would make, a good president. Yet ail have been of a "secondary" nature "derivatives." Qualities have been ascribed. and performances dwelt upon according as they have appeal ed to tho particular -wrltor, yet no one has specified the primary attrib utes which underlie loyalty and an endless patience. Every act or course whlch has won approval has been palpably tlio offspring of .these qual ities. Loyalty to duty, to country, to associates and patience to compre hend, and thereby produce good re sults. That which alone makes ef ficiency, in soldier, executive, or ser vant of tho people In any capacity Is this trait of loyalty; but to accom plish It must bo backed up by pa tience. We Instinctively recognize underlying traits and approve men upon them. Is not this then tho rea son why General Wood Is looked on with confidence and respect? He may, or may not be nominated In 1020. Whether he be, or bo not, no one will doubt but that he will con tinue to be .that which ho has been. As we know a feeling of certaintS' as to the general relations of life, nnd business arises when there is know ledge that a chief, executive Is pos sessed of the qualities of loyalty and patience" If, therefore, It eomo to pass that General Wood bo nominat ed, wo may assume that a Justifiable feeling of certainty and security will spread abroad.
