House and Home
By MARY E. DAGUE.
Author of ister Mary’s Kitchen
Before you order your garden
seeds look over the catalogues
very carefully and ask yourself
two questions: Which is the
most reliable catalogue? Which
will help me to have a better
garden? Needless to say, there
are plenty of good garden cata
logues that are issued by long- ,
established firms with reputa
tions for fair dealing proved by
time and experience. These cata
logues are the result of infinite
care and definite knowledge and
from their numbers you will find
no difficulty in selecting the one
that suits your own particular
needs.
To begin with, you use a gar
den catalogue as a shopping list.
Here the completeness of the in
iormation offered you is a dis
tinct help. There are many de
tails to plan, to look for and to
understand before you fill out
the order blank, o study all the
good catalogues that come your
| way, use their facts intelligently,
, compare them and heed the good
points of each.
A good catalogue acts as a
. rect help, dozens of actual plant
i ing arrangements, keyed and il
lustrated. As an indirect help you
will find clear, concise descrip
tions of the vegetables, flowers
and plants that the dealer has
painstakingly made good enough
to warrant his worthwhile busi
ness. Heights, habits of growth,
maturing time, colors and bloom
ing times are indicated and are
related facts that are part of
your garden planning.
Your catalogue enables you to
know your plants. From it you
should find out all you possibly
can about each variety before
. you sow a seed or buy a plant.
After the broad plan comes the
detailed selection, and here a
manual of garden planning, too.
A good plan is of vast impor-
I tance and the more inclusive the
' catalogue—the more plants, ac
cessories and tools, seeds, its of
fers—the more it will assist in
that vital job. nl well-compiled
catalogues you’ll find, as a di
good catalogue is essential. Most
catalogues are divided and ar
ranged to make this checking
easy. All have an alphabetical
baSis and different types of each
plant are grouped together and
carefully indicated. Go over all
varieties listed against each oth
er, compare the points of dif
ference and then do your select
ing.
As a guide to improved vari
ties your catalogue will prove in
valuable. Be always on the alert
for such phrases as “rust resist
ent,” “wilt resistant,” “blight re
sistant,” "hardier” and the like,
uch descriptions show progress
in plant breeding and marks ex
tra value in plants.
All catalogues are alluring and
all make “bargain" offerings.
The dealer wants you to buy as
much as you will from him. of
course. But he honestly wants
you to buy intelligently. Conse
quently the more help he gives
jyou, the more certain you can
be of his wares. He groups plants
'and seed packets in combination
offers. His quantity prices usu
. ally reflect the common sense
aspects of quantity groupings in
your garden—as well as group
ings as to kind. His bargain of
| lers, if you study them closely,
• are not only aids in selling mer
j chandise, but aids to you in as
sembling plants that go and
I grow well together. Out of his
! experience he xisualizes w'hole
; garden pictures, and these pic
' tures, if you but see, he passes
; on to you.

COMMITTEE OKEHS
FISH AND GAME’S
INCOME INCREASE
The state senate appropria
tions committee has approved a
proposal to give the State Game
and Fish Commission an income
of approximately $500,000 a year
contingent on the commission’s
revenue from hunting licenses
and other funds.
The amendment received com
mittee support after Charles N.
Elliott, director of the commis
sion, explained that if the House
bill appropriating $265,000 for
the commission were not in
creased, the state would be sub
ject to loss of Federal-aid funds.
The intcrease granted would
be used to raise the output of
state fish hatcheries, insure bet
ter game protection, and to aid
in the development of the great
potentialities of the Federal
coastal set-up.

scarcities, shortages and the obstacles occasioned by war, we have sought to build a service that would be eco
nomical. faithful and dependable to the people who have made us grow.

transportation.

alty and devotion to duty, have contributed so much to this Company’s growth and dependability.

Why freight rates are going up...
Since 1939, railroad employes have
had three general pay raises totaling
and the prices of fuel, ma
terials and supplies have risen 61 6 /io %-
But when the war ended in 1945,
the railroads were still hauling freight
at rates no higher, and in some cases
lower, than when the war began.
Without increased revenues, railroads
could not meet these costs and also
provide improvements in equipment
and facilities —improvements that are
essential for the low-cost freight and
passenger services which are necessary
to America’s high standard of living.
Under these circumstances—and al
most a year after the last major wage
increase the Interstate Commerce
Commission recently approved an
average increase in freight rates of

$1.50 Per Year
today, few have been so little and so
late as that in the price of railroad
transportation.
How important are healthy rail
roads to a prosperous country?
Only when the railroads are finan
cially healthy can they provide the
new equipment, improved road beds,
and better terminal facilities needed
s
for still better service to you.
The defense of the nation depends
upon the continuance of the efficient
transportation which served the na

"DYNAMITE”
If you had used several different tractors trying to
remove a stump in your yard and had failed, you
wouldn’t keep trying other tractors, would you? Os
course not, you would try something ALTOGETHER
DIFFERENT, which' would probably be a charge of
dynamite. On the other hand, if you or your
family have tried several different drugs trying to
get well and have failed, why not do as you would with
the stump; try something altogether different (not
dynamite). The methods used by a chiropractic phy
sician are altogether different from those used by oth
er doctors and might be as effective in getting you well
as dynamite would be in removing the stump.
There is no charge to come in and talk over your trou
ble with me.

100,000 different products. They pay
big taxes taxes which are spent not
only for public schools, public health,
and police and fire protection, but
even for highways, airways, airports
and inland waterways.
Railroads are America’s lifeline—
keeping goods flowing among the 48
states day and night in all weather.
They can continue to do this only if
there is a reasonable balance between
income and outgo. Like yourself, the
railroads must make ends meet!
