Straw, lawn clippings;' or leaves' are spread oyer 'the earth to a depth of between fear slid six inches after the plants are well grown. This mice will keep down weeds and will 'conserve moisture. When one is going away for two or. three weeks in the middle of a bot summer; spreading the lawn clippings over the earth in the garden Ince this is particularly advisable' in order, to conserve, moisture and .prevent the Vlaitte from becom1ng,stunted, With those plants which will not permit' deepbultivation on account of spread- ing roots close to the surface, muleh ing is also valuable. Cultivation for Peas Peas whether- of the flower or vege- table ort require very deep cultiva- tion, The plants thrive in cool soil, and this deep cultivation allows the roots to penetrate to a considerable depth away from the ]tot soil at the top, With April neatly over it is time to think about getting In the ear- lier types in the vegetable line.. The first of these will be the round-podrletl aorta which willstand slightly more frost than the finer quality wrinkled peas. Except for a very few early rows, which will not be any great lose if they are destroyed, It is wise to delay planting until the cold, damp weather la' over, as the seed la liable to rot In the ground. In the very small garden peas are hardly, primal - sat. as they take up more room In ,pro• portion- to results than such vege- tables as carrots, beans, or beets. It le only out of .a near -by garden, how- ever, that one will. get first-class quality, as peas lose theirflavor very quickly atter being picked. On this aeaqunt they' are often given room. Sven where apace is limited. The climbing types, supported on brush or chicken wire, . will give the largest yields for the space occupied, but less trouble will be experienced in :grow- ing the dwarf types in double rows whtCll do not require support. Gar- deners are advised to .matte sowings of :peas every Week beginning with the earlier sorts to prolong the sea- son. ..- eaeon:.- Thid vegetable like all others must be grown quickly to get high quality and2 on this account will benefit from quekly acting fertilizers such as nitrate of soda at the rate of a scant ounce per square yard of soil, and regular cultivation is also essen- tial to hasten growth. Planting Trees and Shrubbery Fruit and ornamental trees, shrub- bery and rose -bushes. are planted as soon as the ground is dry enough to dig.The same rule applies to bush fruits, strawberries and herbaceous perennials. Once -the soil loses the moisture of early spring and the hot dry winds 'commence, a much larger proportion of plants Is likely' to die than if planted earlier. Ail RS. FRED.

Publicity G.G„ in the Nation and Athenaeum (London): The trade of a publicity agent Is apparently a lucrative one. The trained eye can detect In the columns of newspapers and maga- zines much that is apparently news but ,le really advertisement. The late a. E. Montague recorded that during the War many things that vctild have been regarded as"unsport- ing" at the beginning became the re- gular practice later on. A similar deterioratiob seems to bave taken place In this matter of self- advertise-ment. Much that would' have been re- garded as gross and ungentlemanly by fathers seems to have become the common usage of to -day.

Care of the Soli - Serious harm will result if one rushes the season and gets into the garden too, early. On lay soil parti- cularly there is grave danger of pud- dling:the earth and causing it to bake. When this happens—the result of working the 'clay when still damp the soil, will never work up nicely that season. When the soil crumbles readily after being squeezed between the hand it is ready for the spade or plow and not before. If the soil is a very heavy clay loosen up by digging Inplenty of strawy manure, leaves, waste garden material or even a light dressing of coal ashes. If very light, the incorporation of humius—decayed vegetable matter—is advisable. For certain types of flower and most vege- tables too, for that matter, tile drain- age should be rprovided in heavy clay soils, and it may be neeessary where an expensive rose garden le to be laid out to place a layer of gravel a foot beneath the surface. What is a Canadian? Saint John Telegraph -Journal (Ind.): (The -United States Supreme Court apparently holds , tbat all Cana- dian citizens are either native-born or naturalized.) Theft is, however, a third category neither native-born nor naturalized. This is by no means num- •erIcally email. It la composed of British -born' Canadians whose birth- place happens to be outside Canada, but not in a "foreign' country as the term is understood and used in the Dominion.. That these are in a class separate from the foreign -born is evidenced by the fact that they need no naturalization, being already Brit- ish. It is difficult to accept birth- place as the sole gauge of nationality.' Is ft, for instance, to be held that a child born in Turkey of Canadian born parents 10 a Turk?

As England Sees Passing of Foch It Was Given to Him to Save the Allied Cause and He Saved It GREATEST SOLDIER "In his own medium he was a genius of the first order, English- men of thewar generation will never forget the debt they owe to his genius, And In military: history his place as the war -winner among war -winners is definitely assured."—Dally News. "Marshal Foch is the second figure of the World War, The first is, and always will be, the 'Unknown Soldier,' And perhaps it is the fairest ootument- ary on Poch, as soldier, that he will always remain second to this myriad nnknowu "—Birmingham Post. "There can be little doubt that Mar- shal Foch Was the greatest soldier of the war. The theories which he held and preached in tints of peace wefe justified in practice, and all that, as Profeelaor of the Boole de Guerre, he had urged on the young soldier prov- ed to be the essential doctrine in modern warfare," says the Yorkshire Post, and all the tributes to his mem- ory bear testimony that of the great military figures-_ he stands out pre- eminent. This admission does not lessen the British regard and appreciation of the late Lord: Haig, but when the "unified commando was agreed to, the fact that Foch was made the head of the combined forces gave him first place in hie lifetime, .and it is not likelyto be taken from tint by historians now that he is dead.

"Several times when she was upset or consti- pated, I tried castor oil but she couldn't retain it, - Our doctor told me to try' Fietcher's Castoria because it is harmless and babies like it. That ended my worries and I've used it since for all my children." Castoria never fails to delight mothers by the quick way it Oda those upsets of babies and children, such as colic, constipation, colds, etc. That''s the reason for its tremendous sale and popularity. Like all good things, it's imitated, but genuine Castoria—the purely -vegetable" product — always bears the Fet b r signature. , nature. 1 o e s "It was -Foch, the Frenchman, who was the ordained ,the inevitable com- mander.

Above all, it liberatedthe aggressive genuis of Foch. He was the man for his opportunity. It was given to him so save the Allied cause, and he saved it.. "What soldier could ask a more magnificent epitaph.? No soldier of his day had a higher intellectual concep- tion of the conduct of war. His practice, like his teaching, was a model—from the classic mould of the Latin mind -of logic and of fervour. f'e not only believed in the "im- ponderables' ah the arbiters of war. He embodied them—the will, the self- confidence, the"' passionate concentra- tion entra- tion upon mastery of the enemy com- mander's mind. They were felt throughout his own Command. They were felt, as German memoirs have testified, among the enemy. "The doctrine of the attack at all oast had some crudu practitioners and some disastrous illustrations. It was susceptible of modification, by mud, barbed wire, concrete, and ma- chine-guns. But there has been In military history no clearer, no more consistent, and, in the end, no more triumphant exponent of the weight of moral fetors in battle than the soldier of genius, the simple, chivalrous gentleman whose memory France and England proudly and sadly salute and honor today." "Foch is no more," says the Morn- ing Post, "The greatest Frenchman of this age has passed away -greatest 1a an age of great men; an age that knew great discoverers, inventors, authors, artists; an age essentially great in itself that, saw France rise again from thebitterness of utter de- feat.

Many motor oils look alike, but there is a vast dif. ference in the way they perform. Unfortunately this difference is difficult to detect. The invisible difference which snakes one motor mil better than another must be inherent in the 'crude from which it is made. There youltave the reason why M[arvelnb a gives b et. ter engine lubrication than oils refined from ordin• ary crudes. Imperial Oil searched the world over for abetter erode-•anl in S oath ilmerica theyfound it. From it they mal s Marvelube--a pure, carbon• free, full-bodied oil that resists the extreme heats and pressures of modern engine operation. Aircraft operators prefer Marvelube because bet. tea"lubrication means greater safety and longer intervals between overhauls. Motorists prefer Mnrvelnbe because it is the ideal oil for modern motors.
