The meals would he so murk raster to plan. and such variety would be added that our appetites would always be keen. In choosing a location for the gar- den it Is well to have It near the house. There are two reasons for this: first, there are many odd min- utes, while one is waiting for a meal. or In the evening, when one would •work In tete garden if 1t were near the house; second, it is much easier for the housewife to obtain vege- tables, and, therefore, she will be more likely to use them. If a slope to the south or southeast can be ob- tained, tilt' will be earlier and allow us to start operations Bonner. The soil Is best of a light nature, sandy loam or light clay loam, because of the greater ease of planting and cul- tivation. Heavier, cooler soils are more satisfactory for some of the later main crops, but retard early work. Ns Most soils, especially the heavy "Ales, should be manured and plough- ed In the fall, but lighter soils may he left till spring. especially 1f the manure is well rotted. Fall plough- ing gives the frost a chance to Pul- verize the loll, destroys many of the insect pests which feed on garden produce, and permits of earlier cet- tiratton. As early as possible In the spring we ahoald thoroughly culti- vate the soil to get 1t into a tine cmt. dltton of filth before the seed is sown. If the sail is lumpy, roll and harrow it atter cultivating. then plank it. This will leave the surf re perfectly level. The sowing is, Ilrerefore, eas- ier, and permits making the rows straight. Straight rows always look much better and tend 1.0 give us greater pride in our garden. To grow fine quality vegetables we must have high fertility, much higher than is common in most farm gar- dens. The use, then, of manure, well rotted, If possible. at the rate of from twenty -rive to fifty tons per acre each fall, will aid in obtaining this high fertility to our gardens. All the hen manure should be saved separately, to be used during the planting season on certain crops. as this Is much too valuable a fertilizer to he used like cow or horse manure. tt'here there is a lark of barnyard manure because of the need of the field crops, a certain amount of com- mercial fertilizer may be need to take its place. Potash may be obtained in the. form of sulphate or 'turtate of potash, and should be used at the rate of 200 to 250 pounds per acre. Phosphoric acid in the form of super- phosphate, bonemeal, or, an light sandy soil,' lacking In lime,. In the forst of basic slag, Is applied at the rate of 400 pounds per acre. Nitro - ren is generally applied in the form of nitrate of 'soda. Because it very quickly disappears from the soil in the drainage water, it is generally used on the growing -plants, 100 to 150 pounds per acre being sufficient; if put on twice, 60 to 75 pou.nds each tune, during the growing season. Yon may buy a complete fertiliser from some fertilizer firm or seeds - man, which will give good results. As many of our best vegetables come originally from tropical coun- tries where the season of growth la much longer than ours, we most use some means to give them this longer growing period. This can best be done by using hotbeds and cold frames. Many will say that it is eas- ier to buy from a greenhouse man. NO doubt this is so, hat we miss much of the pleasure of gardening by so doing, and if a fair amount of care bs used we ran grow a plant which will give us as good, if not better results. Those who do not wish to construct a hotbed may grow to- rnatoe.e and early cabbage plaafs in tin cans or berry boxes in a south window as they woul i a house plant. If we use tomato cans the solder should be melted from the seams, the ea.n being afterwards tied up with :e s'r•nc.— A. M. MnsLennau, Vege- lal.te Specialist, Toronto.

To -day his skull, one arta, one foot and one leg carry metal supports, but never- theless he moves about spryly and occasionally indulges in dancing whioh is his favorite amusement. One of his compatriots says that in France Nungesser is more famed for his fetish than fur his exploits. He attributes his remarkable escape from death to the fact that he in- variably carried in his pocket u little gold medal upuu which was carved a death's head. The sante sign was invariably painted on his plane, and perhaps there was no other plane so well known to the Germans. Knowing the value he set upon the pocket piece the Germans are said to have offered rewards which event- ually reached the sum of 500 000 marks for the [tun airman who would secure it Not while he lived Spring Doings.

It is his ambiVion to supply this need, and it is said that already he has made substantial progress toward his goal. would Nungesst'r surrender his mas- cot, and its possession would be tak- en as proof of his death. Nungesser had experience as a flyer before the war bruke out but he entered the army as a cavalry- man in the Second Regiment of Hussars which became part of the famous Fourth Division, and it was as a hussar that he first distinguish -- cd himself. The incident occurred "in the bad days of Charleroi" in August, 1915 when the French army was retreating under the protection of cavalry. i''Fench and German forces mingled id the dark one night, and Nungesser seeing a 'German automobile with nobody in it, sprang into the machine, and made off with his commander as passenger. The Germans gave chase. They fired on the ear and swarmed toward it from all sides. They overtook it stand- ing by the road, but when they searched it they could find no trace of the Frenchman. For a moment as they explored the neighborhood, the cur was again unguarded. Once more Nungesser with his commander sprang from the darkness, and whirled away with the car. This 011ie they got free and re- joined their regiment.

It was on this that his famous death's head was first dis- played, and the little white plane sooty became a special target for German airmen. On account of the reward offered for the killing or capture of Nungesser, the enemy was partirulary keen to engage him, but not single handed. Frequently he had to fight six or eight at a time. Not congtiing the wounds he re- ceived as O'llussar, Nungesser was wounded seventeen times in the war. It is said that time and again the surgeons despaired of ever being able to patch him together. Nun- gesser, himself, always attributed his recovery to his fetish. He was badly wounded in one side of the head, and had two bullet wounds in the other side. His jaw was splint- ered by an exploding shell. A bullet passed through each side of his chest. At various times, elbow, leg and foot were shattered. In addition he sus- tain'ed several flesh wounds in dif- ferent parts of his body. Not only were several of the wounds ordinarily sufficient to cause death, but the doctors were further hampered by the difficulty of keeping Nungesser in hospital lon . enough for him to completely rover. As soon as he was sewn up enough to sit in his plane he would insist upon return- ing to duty. The flame of fury against the Hun burned no more strongly in any soldier's breast than Torn Moore (Continued from page 7) tuirate indit "There is trudes itsel said the gt favor of the est hour dual." but une grief which in- upun his happiness," tremulously, "the dis- Prince, who in his dark: from him both love and gratitu4e by hie generosity."

"By the ay, Moore," said Wales, languidly, ' id I neat. hear some men- tion made 7 your name in connec- tion with alpoliticat position in Ber- muda?"

"I91 look at e view then," said the Regent, ple ntly. By the time •les had reached the window, wisely choosing the one which opened ..ton the street, for there still ca ' sounds of distant chase from the fs, McDermot was knocking on tb dbor. "Come in," c le Moore. The old Seo an entered in a great rage. "So I ha' eau:. ye at last?" he shouted at sight the poet. "Have it your way, sir." taken, Tom, this "Six times ha' I called here, sair8 ye trickster, ye cheat" "Hold on now," said Moore, in sudden anger, "you are an old man, but more than enough of such talk is a great deal too much." Bessie Iaid a restraining hand on Moore's arm, "Perhaps, Mr. McDermot, you will. be kihd enough to state your griev- ance;" she said, quietly, "It's about the contraet," sputter- ed the irate publisher, "Isn't that all tight?" asked Moore wonderingly. "1 signed it" "Of cooree ye did, ye trickster, but yet did not tell me when ye called to do so that the evening before ye had been shamefully ejected from Sir Percival's house by order o' the Prince of Wales." "Surely that was Sir Percival's business," replied Moore, "He may have been proud of the affair; 1 wasn't." "Ye should ha' told me," repeated McDermot, doggedly. "But I didn't know iou were so. interested in my goin s and com- ings." "You took my thousand pounds." "Was that wrong?" asked Moore. "Wrr,ng '1" echoed the publisher. "P' y,, think I'd give ye ten shillings fur ye skin?" "See here," cried Moore, his anger again getting the better of him, "my skin is not for sale, but, if you value yours, you had better keep a civil tongue in your head, you old Rob Roy." Lord Brooking stepped forward be- tween the two angry men. "Am I right in believing that'you are dissatisfied with your bargain, Mr. McDermot?" said he in a sooth- ing tone. Dissatisfied? Dissatisfied! Why, at the present time Mr. Moore is the very worst investment in the literary market." Brooking waved MoofA back with an admonishing gesture. "Then I take it you would be glad to cancel the agreemdht?" he con- tinued. "But my thousand poonds?" "I will advance Moore the money to repay you. Of course it is a risk, but for the sake of old times I will assume the obligation. Do you need other security than my word?" "Not I," said McDermot, gladly. "There is your contract, Mr. Moore." As he spoke he took the paper from his pocket and tore it into frag- ments. These he carefully deposited on the table and turrid to go. "One moment, Mr. MtDermnt," said an imperious voice. The Prince came forward with an air of chilling dignity. "You have made the greatest mis- take of your life, sir," he continued, addressing the astounded publisher. "This I will show you if you listen. Mr. Moore, you and your fiancee have been little seen of late in the world of fashion. Pray alter this, my dear fellow. Furthermore you may as well abandon all idea of holding. office in Bermuda save by deputy. It is impossible for the Poet Iatureate of England to reside at such a distance from Carlton House." "Sir!" cried Moore, unable to be- lieve his ears. "Poet Laureate?" "One Thomas Moore, not unknown to the literary world, an Irishman of some wit and fancy. Mr. McDermot we need detain you no longer." • Crestfallen, the old Scotchman crept from the room as Moore turn - rd to Bessie almost too happy to speak. You heard?" She nodded her head, her eyes fill- ing with happy tears. There was a clatter in the street and a closed carriage drew up in freyit of Mrs. Malone's. Following it came a dozen hussars, riding gaily, as though in hope of a skirmish, Sir Percival Lovelace and Mr. Dyke alighted and hurried upstairs, while Sweeny and his adherents contemplates ed the soldiers from the safety of distance in melancholy grandeur. "I have been waiting for you, Sir Percival," said the Prince. "Yet I made all possible haste," said Sir Percival bowing low to Bessie. "By good luck, Farguar of the Tenth Hussars was dining with me. A word to him brought me a dozen stout lads, and with them for escort I hurried here." "Will Farquar keep a still tongue?" inquired Wales, more anxious than he appeared. "Trust him for that, your High- ness," replied Sir Percival, confident- ly. "I think I will have to, Lovelace," observed the Prince, dryly. "Mr. Moore, �uu your kindly hosp lity'I shell ex.
