PLANS Gardening is not a hobby that requires a lot ot expensive gadgets or other equipment. A free seed catalogue, a tew packages ot good seeds, a few shrubs, some paper, pencil, a rake and a spade are the only absolutely necessary essen- tials. In the average case the amount ot land at one's disposal is limited, but even with but a few square yards, amazing results can lie achieved. SMALL PLOTS Where space is small, it is advis- able to follow a strictly informal layout with the central portion of the garden cleared ot beds and shruibbery and devoted ^entirely to grass. Around tbee^is will be grouped beds ot perenailti and an- nual flowers, leading up to slirubs and vines along the walls or fence boundaries. This open centre adds to the effect of spaciousness, and it the rigid boundaries are softened and partially hidden, so much the better. . . . AND LARGER ONES Where (he garden is larger, say over thirty feet in length, experts advocate some screening oft ot some portion by bringing forward the surrounding shrubbery at one point, or by a hedge, wall ot trees so that the whole affair will not be entirely visible from any one point ot observation. This will add further to that air ot spaciousness and also provide a secluded corner or two for a swing, sandbox or a trclllscovered table. SHRUBBERY In the general plan, the taller shrubs, such as (he common spirca, hooey suckle, lorsythia, syrin^a, or lilac are placed farthest back, in front go the smaller shrubs, like the barberry, iu different shades ot foliage, the low spireas, the deutzia or similar things that never exceed three or tour feet in height at ma- turiij'. In this class, too, will come many ot the perennial flowers, iris, phlox, peonies, plants ot medium height and whicii like all peren- nials when onco planted and estab- lished will come up each year and flower with very little further at- tention.

Farm Capital Turnover Slow Farms Require High Capital In- vestment For That Reason- Depend On Biological Pro- cesses. Farming is similar to any other business in that the same necessary principles may be applied. Farm- ers, as well as other business men, are dependent on the margin be- tween costs and returns. An im- portant factor affecting that margin is the rate ot capital turnover. Farms require a relatively high capital investment, hence It Is im- portant to secure a large annual turnover it capital charges are to be met. The first year report on the Ontario D.alry Fai'm study, as reported by the:?39^i$t)mics Divi- sion, Marketing Service, Dominion Department ot Agrjeuliure, illus- trates this point. The Milk JIarket group having the most favorable ratio between receipts and invest- ment would require an average ot three years for receipts to equal in- vestment. Returns Slow Coming In The difference between the farm and city business Is due to the far- mer's dependence on biological processes. Some farmers produce milk, eggs and other products which are sold frequently throughout the year. Where this type ot produc- tion Is possible, it aids in flnanciug and may offset borrowing for part ot the year. Many producers, how- ever, depend tor part ot their in- come on sales ot crops and live Btoock, some ot which require up to three or four years to reach ma- turity. The annual (urnover with such enterprises is slow and creates a heavy demand for capital. Love Handicaps Student Greatly To Blame For Failures, Says Professor; Inability To Concentrate I,ov6 is a great handicap lo the accumulation ot knowledge, accord- ing to »r. nay S. Musgrave, pro- fessor of psychology at Blrmlng- hani-Soulhcrn College. Dr. Musgi-ave placed student ro- mances ai the top ot the list ot reasons for failures to pass courses. Next came parties and extra cur- rlcular actlvKies The well known "grudge against the professor" and financial worries also were listed as chief factors making for bad marks. Uut love tops thcni all, Dr. Mus- grave said. "When a student is In love, he is unable to concen(ra(e on his studies." ho said. In (he prison hospital at Tou- louse, France, where he was held to await trial on robbery charges, Sylvio de Sv)uza joined a funeral cortege as it passed him in the garden and walked out to freedom with the mourners. -irr TIRED fEiT Glass Is Found Strong As Steel Most Efficier.t Material In Rela- tion To Weight, is Clstim of Noted European Engineer. That the long-awaited "glass age" in architocturo has actually arrived is emphasized by Jaro.slav Polivka, noted European engineer, in the current Architectural He- cord. In both compression and tension, toughened glass, says Dr. Polivka, is one of the most efficient load-bearing materials. In Comprcdion, Tention While glass has been used wide- ly for many years because of its light-transmitting values, possibili- ties for utilizing its high structur- al strength have been neglected, Dr. Polivka says. He has conduct- ed extensive researches which have made possible several notable buildings in which glass predom- inates in walls and roofs, such as the Czech Pavilion in Paris and the Rotterdam Corn Exchange, with its 50,000 square foot glass- concrete roof. In tests of compressive sti'ength he found that a three-inch square column of molded glass ont foot high could withstand 100 tons â€" the same pressure as could be borne by a IC x 7 inch steel I- beam, and by larger sizes of other structural materialr such as wood, concrete and brick. Toughened or heat-tempered glass is more than twice as strong as the molded pro- duct. He was thinking back to the days ot his youth. "Darling," he sighed, taking her hand in his, "do you remember when we met in the rerolving door at the bank?" "Surely that was not the flrst time we met?" "Oh, no!" be replied. "But that was when we first started going round together, wasn't it?" â€" â€" And then there was the lev- (no mother who had four chil- dren and named them Eenie, Meenie, MInle and Edgar; be- cause she didn't want no Moe. â€" â€" "Fine piece of land out hcrol" said the dusty, shrewd-looking man as he descended from his trap out- side the farmer's house. "You're right there," replied the farmer eagerly. "It's the best to be found in the country." "Bit too high a figure tor a poor man, I expect?" asked the stranger. ''It's worth every penny of fifteen hundred dollars an acre," answer- ed the farmer with an eye to busi- ness. "Were you thinking ot buy- ing and selling In these par(s?" â- 'Harilly," murmured the travel- ler, making some notes in a book. ''I'm (he new tax assessor!" â€" 0â€" Doris â€" "My, how fast your heart is beatlngl It sounds like a drum." Young man â€" "Yes dear, a call to arms!" â€" 0â€" A Negress of mammoth propor- tions and inky complexion was brought unconscious into a hospUal after an explosion. When she came to, the surgeon, thinking to com- fort her, said gently: ''You will undoubtedly be able to obtain a considerable amount of damages, Mrs. Johnson." "Damages!" exploded the lady. "What do Ah want with damages? Ah got all the damages Ah wants now. What Ah needs is repairs." â€" â€" An explorer says that wolf meat Is very nourishing. So some people had a good meal on the doorstep alt this time without knowing it. CHILDREN'S COUGHS (due to colds) Don'tlet chest colds or croupy coughs go untreated.

If a man is entertaining a group of friends in a restaurant or a hotel dining room, in what ord- er do they go to the table? 2.

May a divorced woman con- tinue to wear her engagement and wedding rings? 4. Should a. person avoid using slang in conversation? 5. Is it customary to introduce a young man formally to society? C. What does it indicate when a guest at the table toys with a fork or spoon? Answers: 1. If the head waiter leads the way to the table, the host goes first, to seat his guests. The wo- men follow next, and the men of the party last. 2. Yes; it is not only discourteous, but h;.miliating to the man. 3. She may if she de- sires, but it is far better taste not to do so. 4. Yes.
