‘SCANDAL,’ DARING, BRILLIANT COMEDY, TO BE SEEN HERE. JJ J POINTERS
ON GROWING OF
wintergardens
Spinach should be given a prom
inent place in the Southern winter
garden and two or three plantings
should be made in order to have a
succesful cuttings. Spinach re
quires a rich soil and the seed bed
should be thoroughly prepared before
the seed is planted. A bed 7 feet
wide and 76 to 100 feet long, con
taining about 7 or 8 rows spaced
just far enough apart so that the hoe
can be used between them will pro
vide all the spinach that is needed by
the average family. These suggestions
are made by garden specialists of
the United States department of agri
culture.
In many parts of the South, Ber
muda onions may be grown as a win
ter crop and used in the early springs
time, either in the form of young
onions or later as mature spring on
ions. Tf grown from seed, the seed
should be placed in the ground at the
earliest possible moment and later
thinned so that the plants stand about
3 inches apart in the row. If grown
from sets, they may be planted any

The nation-wide campaign of the
Episcopal church, ao far as the par
ish In Americus is concerned, has
begun its task in real earnest. The
congregation of Calvary church, un
der the leadership of its pastor, Rev.
J. B. Lawrence, and the chairman of
the committee, Dr. B. J. Harrison,
have been divided- into nine groups
for the study of, and accomplishment
of, the great task undertaken by the
chqrch in this country. The leader
of these groups will meet Thursday!
evening at the study of the pastor for occasion arises by simply looking at
the purpose of furthering this great her desk records. If packed in
bling beauty, and the brilliant lines
with which it abounds. Probably
too, theater-goers are glad to escape
from crook plays, musical comedies
with inferior books and war plays,
but whatever the cause may be, the
fact is that the spirit of the comedy
in decidedly contagious and com
municates itself to the audiences,
permeating even the staid and so
phisticated realms of the most blase
theater-goer.
"Scandal” has to do with a spirit

very wealthy and highly respicted
family, who desires to get her in-

In many sections a fall planting of
beets can now be .oade to advant
age, the young or baby beeta becom
ing large enough for table use before
their growth is interfered with by
cold weather.
Peas can be planted in certain
parts of the South late in Novem
ber or during December and will be
ready for gathering early in March.
Carrots may also be planted in Jan
uary or February and will be large
enough for use in the early spring.
Winter cabbage of the Charleston-
Wakefield or Jeraey-Wakefield va
rieties can be planted in the open
gound during November and will
mature the latter part of March, or
du><ng April. A number of plant
growers make a specialty of supply
ing the hady outdoor grown rabi age
plants suitable fot winter cultivation.
One point which should be borne in
mind when planting ssim-hardy crops
that are to be wintered over is that
very little fertilizer shqnld be used at
the time the crops are planted, but
that an abundant supply should be
wi rked Into iha toil alongside of the
plants about the time that they start
an active growth In January or Feb-
raary. If largo amounts of high-
grade fertilizer are used in the fall,
the plants will grow soft and be more
subject to injury by cold weather than
if they are kept growing slowly La
ter, when the weather begins to be
warm, the fertilizer may be applied
and the plants pushed to a rapid
growth. In the case of the first plant
ings of spinach, the product of which
is to be used in the autumn, the gen
eral rule above stated should be dis
regarded and an abundance of highly
available fertilizer used. Where spin
ach is planted later, to be wintered
over and used in the springtime, very
little fertilizer should be applied at
the time of planting and a top-dress
ing should be worked into the soil
about mid-winter.
Many of the failures of southern
winter gardens are due to poor prep
aration of the land and to inferior
seeds. In many cases the land is
covered with weeds which should be
removed and the suli afterward turn
ed over and thoroughly pulverized.
There is always the danger of seenr-
ing seeds that are left over from last
spring’s sales and as a result a poor
stand of plants is secured. Insist
that the seeds procured for planting
the winter garden are reaonably fresh
and of high vitality. Good seeds may
cost a little more than poor ones, but
they will effect a great saving in the
long run..
FIRE-PROOF ROOFING
Is the oply Roofing I handle, and the only roof you should use.
The majority of cities make the city limit a fire limit after
the town burns up. Take advantage of this, and use a Fire-
Proof Roof.
The high cost of living is not such an expense. It is the
high cost of living without protection that really counts.

boxes, a label on each box telling the
contents makes the finding-of each
article an easy matter. Her outline
of treatment would be very nearly
like the following, according to home
economic specialists in the U. S. De
partment of Agriculture:
Washable White Clothing.—Wash-;
ed carefully, no starch added, blued j
more than usual to avoid a yellow)
appearance when spring unpacking
comes. Hung in a closet reserved'
for this particular use or~folded so
that the creases will correspond as
far as possible with the folds into
which the garment falls in use and
laid in a trunk or box.
Washable Colored Clothes—Wash
ed, unstarched, turned wrong side
out and hung in the closet or pack
ed away as were the white garments.
Palm Bench Suits—Cleaned and
put in separate box, carefully folded.
Hats.—How to treat the summer
hat depends much upon the material.
If of straw, brushing off all dust and
packing in a hat box is good treat
ment. The georgette and lace hats,
if soiled, should be dry cleaned and
allowed to air thoroughly before
wrapping in tissue paper and storing
away in a hat box. Avoid weight
which will crush the trimming.
Shoes.—The pumps and oxfords
should be cleaned and put away with
shoe trees in each one.
Inventory should be simple, of
course, but definite, giving a list and
storage place of the clothes for each
member of the family. This will
prove of definite service when next
spring’s clothing budget requires
thought and time.
Proof ot Biblical Truth.
Perhaps the tuoKt impressive fart of

times is found In the Bible, In thi

told that the land where the Philis

of ruts or mice nod that thereupon
the people were smitten with bubonic
