Thaw who have neon growing vegetables in their backyard for a ntuuber of years r:aduallyc add to their supply until ex three or four years they have ccumulated many special ' tools lifeb arta suited for particular oner- ous in the garden. Complaints ketimes beard that the expense necessary to commence a backward arden is very great, Many very good backyard gardens have been made and excellent harvests obtain- ed with very few and comparatively inexpensive tools. A digging fork or spade, a, rake, and a boo are about. all the tools essential at the outset, axial these are inexpensive. PLANTING OF SEEDS. When it has been determined that the soil is suitable for digging and the 'weather is nice and warm, it is nedoesary that the seeds be planted in the garden. As fine a surface as possible should. be secured, so that the little seeds will quickly germinate and grow. To sow the seeds quickly, evenly, and thinly requires considerable' practice' and care. The row may be made straight by stretching fairly tight a piece of string from one portion of the garden to another and using this as a guide for making the trenches or drills for placing the seeds in. After the seeds have been dropped in they should at once be covered with sot by gently drawing some of the loose surface soil in over the seeds with a piece of stick or with the bands. This soil should, however, not be heaped up over the row but should be placed. evenly with the rest of the garden soil and packed down. THIN;\'LVG. Backyard gardeners should not attempt to grow immense quantities at first. It is necessary to plant sufficient seed to secure ''a good crop of plants, the more slender plants being thinned out soon after they are above ground so as to assure reasonable room for a good crop of healthier plants. The 'thinning should ` be commenced when the plants are from;one to two inches''in height and should not be left until the plants have become long and slender, because if they are left one plant simply tries to smother another one out; whereas, if tbey are thin- ned to the proper distance they will have room to grow to their required size of maturity. TRANSPLANTING. The city dweller will find it almost impossible to grow plants of first-class quality of such • vegetables as tomatoes, celery, or cabbages unless he has other appliances; such as a hot -bed, which enables him to start the seeds very early in the spring and some time before •they could have been planted out in the garden, in order that he may secure early crops. It is good practice for him to purchase plants which may be taken to the backyard garden and transplanted or set out in the garden at'a required distance and good . healthy •crops' grown from them, and in all cases when purchasing plants only sturdy and vigorous growing plants should be accepted. Tomato plants to give:. the best results should be eight inches high, and: the stalk should oe at least as thick as a leadpencil and. thicker if possible. If the planta al- ready, are in bloom this inay be .con eidered a very good feature. The rom n od he' larotge andsystehavingofthe nineplarootletstshs.

The work of planning the garden to determine what ivegetableci and how much of each is to be grown will be influenced by .owes individ- ual tastes. One should grow an abundance of such ererps as one con- eumes the most. Secure Seed Now --start Plant Only 1Yhesa Soil is Ready.; The backyard gardener should de- cide very early which ,crops are to by grown and. should ,purrbase his seed as soon as possible. .3t must be remembered, however, that much of this seed may be wasted if it is planted. too early in the.season. The soil must be warm to a receive the seeds. and amateur gardeners must, have patience instil it is certain that good growing weather is ,really here.

In the early days of his connection with hforocco, General Lyautey did a remarkable work on the Algerian ,frontier, in that great tract of almost unknown country stretching from the Mediterranean in the Sahara; For several oral he yearspatrolled this re- gion, organized 'companies of light cavalry, and. with all his aceustomed genius, gradually secured order out of chaos. Posts were established all along the'frontier, round which'vil- lages sprang up, New towns were founded and several magnificent roads were cut through the moun- tains. It was, however, in Morocco, after the establishment of a French protectorate over the country, in the later part of 1911, that General Lyautey's most '':i8istinguished work was done. When, an the March of 1912, on the eanclusion of the Franco -Moroccan treaty, General Ly- autey, who had been in command of the French forces iso •311orocco up to that time, was created French Resi- dent -General, he virtrually took over the government of a country seething with, all manner of strife, bitterly "op- posed to French rule, :and forever breaking out, now here` and now there, in open rebellion. He recog- ;nixed. his opportunity. A soldier of ;Soldiers, he put valiantly tato prac- tice the theory expounded some twelve years before in the Deux Nig/ides, namely, that soldiering in the sense of fighting was by no mealsthe whole of a soldier's call- ing.
