Good Start Important
f | 'HE value of a garden plant,
vegetable or flower, depends
greatly upon the start it gets; so
give your seedlings ample care.
Begin cultivation as soon as
rows are visible, if soil is not wet.
Work close to the small plants,
cultivating shallower as they
grow, to avoid injury to root
growth. Cultivate often.
Irrigating should not be neces
sary the first week or ten days
after seeds have sprouted. Harold
Coulter, vegetable expert, advises
that if the ground is baked hard
and sprouts do not appear, the
surface of the soil may be dis
turbed slightly with a rake.
Small seedlings may be irri
gated in two ways: Mark a shal
low trench about four inches from
the row and run it full of water;
or, using a fine spray, apply wa
ter from directly above the plants.
Watering is most effective when
done shortly after cultivation. The
best time for irrigation is late
afternoon or evening.
Small plants should be thinned
as directed on seed packets.
Natural Singer
Give us, oh, give us the man
Who sings at his work. Be his
occupation what it may, he is
equal to any of those who follow
the same pursuit in sullen silence.
He will do more in the same time
he will do it better; he will per
severe longer.—Carlyle.

Good Action
Act well at the moment, and you
have performed a good action to
aU eternity.—Lavater.
Don't Neglect
Your Child’s Cold
Don’t let chest colds or croupy
coughs go untreated. Rub Children’s
Musterole on child’s throat and chest
at once. This milder form of regular
Musterole penetrates, warms, and
stimulates local circulation. Floods
the bronchial tubes with its soothing,
relieving vapors. Musterole brings re
lief naturally because it’s a M counf er-

mended by many doctors and nurses.
Three strengths: Regular, Children’s
(mild), and Extra Strong.
Application
There is no lack of good maxims
in the world; all we need is to
apply them.—Pascal.,

Tommy—Gee, I dunno.
Teacher—Oh, come now. What

They tell of a shiftless character
who piled into bed one night after a
coon hunt, with all his clothes on,
including boots. After a while his
wife shook him, “Get up. You got
your shoes on.”
To which he mumbled, “That’s all
right. They ain’t my good ones.’*!
