WHY DO WOMEN MARRY? !
Variety Of Reasons Advanced At
Maryland Meeting.
The Still Pond Farmer's Club of
Chestertown. Md.. probed a deep
problem at a meeting held there last
Wednesday. The problem was: "Why
do women marry when there are so
many better chances open to them in
business?" A variety of reasons were
advanced, but at last accounts the
ofiil Atton
IjUCMlUU V> ao OVUI V^v?>.
Some said women married because
they did not realize the chance they
were taking. Some said home is
stronger than reason. Some it was
human nature and they could not
help it. Others that they married because
it was the custom of their
lathers and grandfathers. Some of,
the women said they had looked tlior- j
oughly over the field and made the j
best selection and were sure they had
gotten the right one.
The next question was a more serious
one. "How can we farm so as to
use less labor and fertilizer while the
price is so high?" More grass and
Jess grain was suggested.

To Make Hotbed For Tomatoes
To make a hotbed for starting early j
tomatoes, you will need plenty of j
* L f?'nm find I
rresn muuk* manuiv uv?wvV
mules. Some cow manure mixed in
will not hurt it. Lime will damage
any manure, and should never be
mixed in manure.
For the hotbed you will need a;
portable frame and sashes. I use I
frames that are six feet wide and j
nine feet long, carrying three sashes j
each 3x6 feet. To make the hotbed. I
dig a pit six inches wider each way j
than the frame. Get the manure and
pile near the bed. Wherf it steams,
turn and re-pile it, and when it again
heats, put it in the 18-inch deep pit
and pack down close. Put on the
frame and bank manure around it and
put in the frame three or four inches
of fine fertile soil and level it smooth.
Then stick a thermometer in the
soil and watch the heat rise with the
sashes on at night. When it has
reached its highest temperature and
has begun to fall to about 85 degrees,
l J C1V.
you can sow uie swu uumi
inch rows and cover lightly. Now is
the important stage in the management
of the bed. If you leave the
sashes closed in sunny weather you
will bum up all your plants. Water
with tepid water when needed. Always
give some air by slipping down

I from the 10th to the 15th of February.
'Then in March prepare a long frame
j for hardening of the plants, for plants
j grown in a hotbed till time to set in
I the field will be crowded tall and
; weak and not worth much more than
j plants grown outside. Hence when
' the plants are about five inches high
they should be transplanted to a cold
! frame, four inches apart each way,
! and set deeper than they grow so as
i to make a mass 01 roots ior mo unui

! covered with cloth, hut the plants
! must be exposde to the air at every i
favorable opportunity, and gradually j
hardened to the air so that when
time for planting comes you will have 1
stout plants with purplish stems, i
rather than pale green, showing!
tougher character. A three-sash j
frame on a hotbed will start plants I
enough to till a very large frame, and i
if not so many plants are wanted a
single sash on a hotbed frame will
start enough plants. The plants should
be in the hardening frame by last of |
March or earlier. Get my garden

o
A Square Deal For TCie Tenant
Already more than half the farm
area in the South is cultivated by
tenants, and tenancy is increasing.
Whether or not this be a desirable
situation, it is a fact nevertheless,
and must be faced as such. Many tenants-farmers
are making their periods
at tenants a stepping-stone to farm
ownership, and this class especially
should be extended every encouragement.
In fact, the landowner everywhere
will find it excellent business policy
to give the tenant a square deal and
a chance to achieve home ownership.
One of the greatest things in life is
hope,?a belief in better things and
better days. So long as the tenant is
hopeful he is ambitious and progressive,
willing, anxious to do everything
possible to increase yields; and profits.
The landowner who has tenants of
this kind is usually prosperous, while
the man with dissatisfied tenants is
rarely doing well himself.
At the beginning of the new year
we believe it is well for the average
landlord to give thought to his illations
with his tenants. Give them decent
houses to live in; help them to
get fertilizers and better varieties of
seeds; offer prizes for excellent work;
advance cash to them so they may
