Perennial Gardens Popular m South.
More than 26,000 girls in the 15
Southern States planted winter gardens
last year, and 4,949 more had
perennial, or permanent, gardens, according
to reports compiled by the
United States Department of Agriculture.
The winter garden bridges the
gap in the seasons, enabling the
southern family to have green vegetables
the year round, while many indirect
benefits result fromi the perennial
garden in adition to its direct
uses. The perennial gardens generally
contain some fruit or nut trees, grapdv
vines, berries, or other small fruits,
selected according to climatic conditions.
The home demonstration agenw,
who sfreesupervised by the United
States Department of Agriculture and
the State colleges, encourage the girls,
who are doing advanced work in the
garden clubs, to establish permanent
gardens, because they realize that
such gardens serve as memorials to
club girls who go away to high school
or college ancl do serve to draw the
girls bac kto the farmsteads. A perennial
garden also provides a means
to,'earn money, 'and enables many
girls at school to pay at least part
of their own expenses.
Plantings in these perennial gardens
are generally begun not later than
spring of the second year of club
work, so that by the time a club
member reaches her third or fourth
year's work her garden is in good
bearing.

Only Live Okajtl In Captivity.
- The only live okapi in captivity has
been (brought to Antwerp from the <
Congo. The okapl is the survivor of
a distant ancestor of the giraffe. An <
adult stands about five feet high, anu <
although It has ^he general shape of <
the giraAe, its neck is relatively
shorter and its forelegs are not so <
high hi proportion to the hindquar- !
tera.
The sides of the animal's head are
light fawn color and the general coloration
of the body is a dark purple. (
The most striking characteristic ii
that the rump, and the upper part of !
the legs are transversely striped with
black and white. It was first known
in 1901, having been found in the ,
Semllki forest, haunting low undergrowth
and'swamps.

But cultivating is only one of all
