Give Slow Growing Flowers
and Vegetables Head Start
Some flowers and vegetables are
slow starters. The harvest will be
both earlier and longer, if the seeds
are sown under protection some
weeks before it would be possible
to sow directly in the garden.
Examples are petunias, asters
and snapdragons among the flow
ers, and tomatoes, peppers and egg
plants among vegetables. Some gar
deners prefer to give many other
varieties an early start, but in the
six cases cited the benefits are per
haps greatest over most of the
country.
Cauliflower, which must mature
before hot weather, is also started
in this way, and sometimes early
cabbage, broccoli, and kohlrabi.
For most other vegetables, little
is gained by setting out plants, ex
cept in cases where it might be dif
ficult to germinate seed. This rnay
be true in localities of mild climate
and low rainfall, and in all sections
during hot weather, A better way,
however, is to learn the simple
methods by which seeds can be
started even in difficult weather. If
&hnu are used, start them yourself
an outdoor flat, filled with good
potting soil, well watered and shad
ed from the hot sun. It is easy to do
this, and quite inexpensive.
Thera are handicaps in trans
planting, which should be consid
ered. Whenever a plant is moved
froms one location to another, it suf
fers a shock, and growth stands still
until it recovers, and adjusts itself
to the new location. A certain per
centage of loss may be expected,
and unless transplanting conditions
are favorable, and handling skilful,
the gain in the harvést may be less
than was expected. Many market
gardeners fid that late tomatoes
grown from seed sown in the gar
den, and never moved, will grow
faster and more vigorously than
plants which are started under pro
tection, and set out in the garden.
While the transplants usually bear
first, the direct seeded plants are
often not many days behind.
KILLER'S PACE
BY JULIUS LONG
THE STORY: In order to save
Rose Bidault from the " electric
chair, Star Williams, her lawyer
and my (Jim Marshall’s) boss, did
some sleight of hand. Exposure
makes it necessary now to prove
Rose innocent or Star will be dis
barred. But Rose has been mur
dered and there have been two at
tempts on my life. I'm now at the
La Jolla club for two reasons. Al
Namnabarro, the properietor, has
been connected with the two men
I shot in self-defense, and Sonya
Sareeta, the lady magician who
taught Star the sleight of hand he
did with the evidence at Rose
Bidault's trial, performs there. 1
failed to get much out of Louise,
Al Nanabarro’s girl friend, with
whom I made an acquaintance.
But during Sonya’s act she fired a
gun supposedly loaded with
blanks at the audience. One shot
was aimed at me but it was no
blank and I ducked just in time.
* Eo *
Sonya didn’t rejoin Stine. He
went back to his table in the al
cove to wait for her, and I saw
him fidget as she failed to appear.
Louise came out belatedly herself
and climbed on a stool at the bar
where I joined her.
“Drink?”
“Why not?”
I observed the bartender push
a concealed button. Presently a
lean character with a very dark
complexion appeared at Louise’s
elbow.
“Are you being annoyed by the
customer?” It was a rhetorical
question calling for a stock an
swer, but Louise didn’t give him
a stock answer.
“Go take a running jump into
the drink, Lou, This is a friend of
mine. An OLD friend.”
The character addressed as Lou
looked somewhat startled, then he
looked me over with interest. I
could see him make up his mind
that he didn’t like the way my hair
was parted or something. He shot
Louise a glance, then turned and
walked across to the draped door
way of Nanabarro’s oifice.
Louise looked frightened. *I
shouldn’t have said that, Mac, Bet
ter scram out of here while you've
got a chance!”
“Not unless you go along with
me.”
Louise looked as if I'd gone
nuts. Maybe I had. I was giving
Nanabarro a perfect opportunity
for cooling me. I didr't have any
doubts that Madam Sonya Sareeta
was taking her orders from Nana
barro. Which meant that he'd tried
once already on the premises and
would welcome a perfect set-up.
I caught her arm. Omne of the
barmen lifted a folding section of
the bar at the end and came
around fast.
She stared into my ecyes, then
her gaze shifted to the approach
ing barman. She shook her head.
“No, Roy. It's all right. I'll take
him out.” She turned toward the
entrance. I released my grip and
followed her out silently. Then I
took her arm again and marched
her to my car. She was reluctant
but I didn’t have to drag her.
“You fool! I only meant to get
you outside before Al came out of
his office. They'd kick the teeth
out of you! Let me go now, and
I'll go back and gloss it all over.”
“Nix. We're going to take a little
ride.”
v - »
I saw her weaken. I cpened the
door, and she got in I went
around, climbed under the wheel
and left the lot. The garty she’'d
called Lou stood in the entrance
watching, but no car tailed us from
the lot. I turned north to River
Road and stopped.
“Who are you?” she arked.
“Jim Marshall, Didn't Nanabar
ro tell you that?”
“No. Does he know you?”
“I work for Star Williams.”
She pretended t hat meant
llxothins. “The criminal lawyer?

She looked puzzled. “How would
1 know?”
I grabbed her wrist and gripped
it tightly.
“You know, all right. Tell me,
when did you see Ted Delaney
last?” : |
“I don’t know any Ted Delaney.”
1 let go of her wrist, I laughed
my discouragement.

“Just as I thought. Nanabarro
sent you out with me. You were
to get the information, not me.‘
When his little plot to rub me
tonight missfired he sent you out '
to con me.”
“Why would Nanabarro want to
kill you?” ,
“T'd like to know all the answer |
to that one myself. You tell me,l
and I'll get Nanbarro out of your |
hair.”
“I'm not worried about him.”
“The heck you aren’t! You
wouldn't be here if you weren't,
How did a kid like you, who looks
smart, ever get messed up with a
guy like Nanabarro—especially
after the Frannie Martin thing?”
She dropped her guard. I could
feel her wince,
“I was a stranger in town, I got
here right afterwards. None of the
girls or none of he help at the
club was discussing it. Al was nice
enough, and I thought he was a
good thing. Later I found dif
ferent.”
“Give me the information I
need, and I'll free you of Nana
barro. Why, for example, was Rod
LaGrange at the Bidault place to
day? What did he want there?”
But she was too cagey; she
clammed up, and 1 knew I had
made a mistake, calling her game
as soon as I had. I should have
played dumb instead of just being
dumb.
I started the motor and backed l
out of the lot. It was all over—l
had muffed it.
I thought: “You fool, you've
probably given her all the answers
she wanted to know! Nanabarro
was probably curious to know if
I'd figured a tie-up between him
and the LaGrange gang, and I
certainly answered that one for
napet” -

IMPORTANCE OF FRESH AIR IS
GETTING BELATED ATTENTION
BY EDWIN P. JORDAN, M. D,
Written for NEA Service
The importance of having plenty
of good fresh air to breathe is
now well recognized. And it wasn’t
so long ago that nprillions of peo
ple kept their windows tightly
closed at night for fear the air
would hurt them. Now ventilation,
or air conditioning, has been
placed on a good scientific basis
and millions are reaping the ben
efits of having better air to
breathe.
Some progress has been made
in learning the health aspects of
the air we live in, though perhaps
the engineers have done even
more in working out how to sup
ply the kind of air desired. There
are a lot of questions about air:
germs and dust, temperature, and
amount of moisture, for example,

THE BANSER-HERALD, ATHENS, GEORGIA
In some places of public assem
bly the air is washed, which gets
out most of the dust particles, in
| cluding a lot of the germs. This is
combined with constant circula
tion with new air fed into the
system and heated or cooled to
any desired temperature. It is not
a cheap process and is therefore
not always practical (or neces
sary) in our homes.
Temperature of the air is quite
a problem and is closely tied in
with the amount of moisture, For
one thing men and women are not
always comfortable at the same
temperatures and there is a lot of
variation between individuals, too.
In winter there is often a tre
mendous difference between the
inside and outside temperatures
and perhaps this isn’t too good for
us. In hot weather, for exammple,
it has been found that it is usu
ally wise to keep any cooled
building around ten degrees cool
er than the outside, providing, too,
that the humidity or moisture is
kept satisfactory.
These problems, and such things
as how fast the air should be
moved in and out have been pret
ty well worked out by air condi
tioning engineers, who deserve a
lot of credit. And in many things
beside simple comfort a great
deal has been done. Many delicate
laboratory and industrial opera=
tions must be carried out with the
air held exactly at a certain tem
peratyre and humidity,
Better Late ». ,
It seems as though our interest
in air has come a little late, con
sidering how much it means to our
health and in other ways. But it
is here now, and new questions
keep cropping up, one of the most
serious being the air pollutions of
whole cities (smog) which is or
has been troubling so many of the
big, and even small cities of our
nation.
