If a figure is stout, it,
above all othérs, needs
careful corseting.
A Corset, individual
ly right for the stout
figure, keeps the flesh
from sagging into ugly
forms.
Then, again, the
stout model, properly
selected, does not give
the wearer discomfort
by constantly slipping
up on the figure.
If your figure is stout, or regardless
of your requirements, there is an Amer
ican Lady or Madam Lyra Corset
Model which will supply your individ
ual needs. .

Vacant Lot Gardens Give
Many Opportunities for
Increasing One’s Income
BY MABEL GENTRY PEPPER.
Interest in the vacant lots
contest is stlll runing high,
and there are still new applica
tions for entrance. After careful
ly going over the list the commit
tée has decided that it would not
be just to those who have been
laboring so long to allow any
more to enter into the first list
of prizes,
There still is an unlimited sup
ply of seed that may be had by
asking, and many plants or cut
tings to be had en request.
A number of people and firms
have kindly donated prizes or
¢4sh- to buy them with. A list
of thése contributors will goon be
complete and will be publighed.
Those already having plants
out, it is time already to prepare
stakes for the tomato plants and
pea vinés, So many men are out
of work on account of the clos
ing of saloons and breweries, 'it
might hexl‘p some to gather com
mon stakes and sell them for
sticking peas, pole beans and to
matoes, also for raspberries and
anything requiring canes or
stakes. Be careful to cut them
good and long, then trim off the
very small end,
v How to Place Stakes.
The larger parts could be left
abotit three feet long, and tied in
bundles of 12 for 10 cents, 25 for
20 cents, 50 for 85 cents and about
100 for 40 cents would seem a
reasonable rate. The smaller ends
could be put {nto hunches and
also gold for staking flowers, such
as fuchias, begonias and many
other flowers which require
stakes. Many men and bovs who
otherwise would have nothing to
do might earn quite a little in
this way. It would pay to place a
small ad in a paper telling where
these canes might be secured.
One change for a profitable
business on a small scale might
be furnishing good wood earth in
small bags to those wishing to
have a few pots or window bhoxes.
There are many people who would
be glad to pay a reasonable price
for this earth if brought to their
flat or apartment. Many, many
persone living in hotels, flats, and
crowded city blocks have no way
of securing a bit of soil to plant
even a small box.
A short talk a few davs ago
with a flower peddler brought this
fact to my notice, He sgaid he
oftén sold $75 worth of plants in
one day, and on many days more,
He had great trouble in securing
a sufficient supply, and also he
could get no moss for filing
baskets. Why can’'t some boy
who wants an income gather this
moss from the woods?
Be sure and loosen it carefv!]y
and roll it up in sheets. Enough
to fill one medium sized basket
retails for 20 cents. - You can sell
it on any corner, or better still,
sell it to the flower venders. |
Jnention these facts as they might
be of assistance to some one Just
thrown out of work.
Soon will come Mother's Day.

To those planning to raise some
poultry it is a good time to get
your place in condition—much of
your success depends on giving
plenty of green food, as all ani
mals require a large per cent of
this food English rye grass is perl
haps the best grass for poultry,
but this mixed with Bermuda
grass gives a good green all the
year around. Get a start now and
replant again in September.
A strawberry bed may be put in
this month, though, of course,
there will be no fruit until next
season. Just now the home
grown berries are not so large on
account of dry weather. 1 think
it a little early to begin to put
up the berries, but with sugar as
high as it is, putting up any fruit
will be very expensive.
