How Concord, Ga., proved that the traditional southern indolence la myth, insofar as community advance ment Is .concerned, is one of the most worthwhile stories that have come up from Dixie In many months. The Institution of a National Spring Tree Planting Week recalls the man ner In which this little-Georgia town made Itself known fsom coast last October In agricultural and civic circles. It eet an enviable rec ord in the first Fall Tree PlantHTSr Week so successfully promoted by the Plan to Plant Another Tree move- ment. Concord, directed by Its Woman'i club, wrote the Plan to Plant Anoth- r Tree directors for suggestion* ays and means of making Concord beautiful. It was suggested that the Club rouse the Interest of all other clubs, of churches and organizations of every description, to the effort of planting a tree, a shrub or d flower for every mnn^n’oman nnd child in Concord. The Woman's Club approv ing nnd advancing the Idea, brought about the roundup of a week of zeal that resulted In the planting of not ono .but four Trees. 8hrub* or Flow ers for each person in town. A club member prominent In the work of planting wee*t In Concord wrote the chairman of the Plan to Plant Another Tree as follows. "Tree Planting JYcck was the most successful movement ever put on In this town. We hdve lived here thirty years add we really believe more or- namentsls were planted during the last wetk than in all thirty yearr together." The report of tho club avers that the Initial effort was not easy at first. Limited means after boll weevil des truction made It dlflcult to convince many that fruit treea and ornamentals were invaluable lvestments for pub lic and private good. "But tho next planting," tho reporter avers, "will be very easy. You never saw such en thusiasm as there was before the week waa over. 8omc went back the third time for plants." Plan to Plant Another Tree Is spreading, the result of Its first nat ional Tree Planting Week In Concord to encourage other communities to go and do likewise." HOUSEHOLD/ HINTS . TO FLAVOR ‘DACON.

The heater phould In all cases be placed In a separate compartment or the end of .the hotbed on ac count of the danger of gases being given off which would injure the the plants. * One of the best arrangements of tho heating pipes Is to have them on the walls of the bed just a little below the •ash.

BEATTIE, Extension Horticulturist, United states Department of Agriculture. , One of tho way* of preventing tho human aystem from suffering from digestive monotony is to provide plen ty of green or leaf vegetables in the diet. Fresh green food not only serves as the broom for the stomacho but supplies the human system with tho mineral elements that are so essen tial to health. Splnash, kale, mustard, dandeUon, sour grass and other kinds of greens taste best In spring because they aro more tender and fresher at that time. Collards, kale, cabbage, brussels sprouts, kohl-rabl, turnip tops and spinach are among the Important fall, winter and early spring green foods for tho south. Cabbage, kale nnd spinach are the Important fall, winter and spring green foods for those mid dle sections whero the climate Is mod* crate. Fall cabbogo and'spinach for late fall use, storage cabbage and tur nips for winter uzo and spinach, kale and mustard for spring and early Mummer use are a good combination for the northern states, in addition plants such os bossclla, swiss chaKl and New Zealand spinach thrive dur-J Ing warm weather. By the use of coMframes, cow- J Inga of straw or pine boughs < other means of protection, sp.nach I and kalo may bo •carried through the | winter rather far gorth.
