' The -following is' from a letter Just received from "Don" Harris, written to his mother, of Chrlat School, Arden. He and his brother Dave are both In the aviation aervloe of the country. Don has been for some weeks under training, with other American, at the Royal Flying Corps School of Toronto. He has now gone for flying practice to Deseronto, Canada: "We came out something over a week ago, and got a Joyrlde the samo afternoon. The next morning our In structions began. After t hut it was a question of adaptability. Koine of us got to our solo or work alone In short order; some have not started yet but are still doing dul Instruction work. I had about three hours In the air and eight practice landings and then they sent me up alone. It was nerve-racking and terribly lonosorne. The air plane tossed and rocked and drifted about in the most uninviting way. But I did manage to got about to the correct landing position. This whs when my heart began to flutter. It's the landings that caune so many crashes, and aa I looked down in the alrdome I saw a machine go on its nose. Then I shut off the motor, and let her slide down. When I hit the ground, It was naturally at the wrong angle, and we had an awful bounce. I turned on the engine and rttine around again, and this time we g.-t around and landed in very good ctuer Sfi far luck has been with ma, and I have had no eras! ev. Some era ill mid some don't, tut it is not dangerous, No one is hurt beyond a few bruises. It is expensive though for the Cana dian government. "Alderman went off this afternoon and got himself lost. It is very hard to keep location and direction when you are up alone. He had to land finally in a corn field, which was no easy matter. He did it safely how ever, and found "that he was five and a half miles east of Nazane. a small village about ten miles from Deser- onto. 'Maybe you would' like to know about the flying school here. It Is about one hundred and fifty miles from Toronto, on the lake shore. It is a quaint, beautiful little Dlace. but not so lovely as Toronto. The Indians and half-breeds are the majority of the inhabitants. In much the same way as me negroes are in the small towns of our south. "The school is divided Into two sec tions, one called Rathburn and locat ed about two miles from Deseronto. the other is Mohawk and is about four miles out of Deseronto. This Is our camp and a very nleasant one. We have quite nice quarters though a good deal crowded. The mess hall has two huge lounge rooms, with big nre places ana large comfortable chairs. There is always a. crowd a tout playing cards or singing or talking over me days events. We get very good things to eat and very nicely served. It is more like a club or a fraternity than anything else. "We get up at four and fly until eignt. xnen come m for breakfast. At nine-thirty we go out to fly asain At eleven-thirty, when the air has be come too bumpy to be pleasant or safe, we drill and then come in for lunch. The early afternoon is given over to classes, and the latter part to flying again. The officers are vary nice and quite friendly. Samel of them are quite noted.

He is not in my squadron, however, so I will not have the distinction of having nown wnn castle. 1 am In the 87th. squadron, and it is one of the very Desx in point 01 instructors and ma chines. "You spoke of sending me another sweater, iou don't know how wel come It will be. It's awful cold and In the early morning with everything on mat we possess we shiver and shake and freeze. Tou can imagine what it is up Ave thousand feet. We wear leather coats, of course, but tfliat only keeps the cold off as far as wind Is concerned. I wear the helmet you made all the time though it is a nuie small ror me." There can be ho doubt of the great antiquity or measuring time by period of seven days.

In such locations Sweet Peas can, however, be grown to perfection if the seed is sown In the fall. By eowlng in the fall the plants made much stronger root growth un der cool ideal conditions, and are therefore, better able to withstand the heat and drought of late rfprlng and early summer, while an extended flow ering season is assured. . Sowing In Warm Sections. In the south and in fact all warm. tropical and subtropical' locations, Sweet Peas should be sown during the last week of September or in early Oc tober. From these sowing and In such sections, the plants should flower from December until May or June, and in some places even longer. Or, In fact, until extreme heat kills the vines. Sowing In J he North. In the north success will also follow fall sowings if protection Is given. The best method is to sow not later than the middle of October, using a protec tion of boards and glass. Six or nine inch boards should be placed length ways along both sides of the row, nine inches apart, making the ends quite tight with a piece of board to fit the opening. Glass is then laid along the top of what might be called the Sweet Pea frame." the glass being held in position with either broad headed nails or strlns. The glass, how ever, should not be placed in position until severe weather sets in, or during heavy rain storms. In the course of two or three weeks the seed will have germinated, and the seedlings "will ap pear above tha ground. Jtsut so long as the weather is open and mild, do not cover them, aa we must aim to encourage a sout, sturdy growth, and Sweet Peas are Impatient of coddling at any time. A few degrees of frost on plants that have been grown in the open without protection, will not harm them. In this section (Philadelphia) the Peas require no further covering than the grass already referred to, but fur ther north where winters are more severe, it may be well to cover the siass and the sides of the frame with burlap, old Backs, or rough litter, but be sure to remove it during mna, brixht weather. As soon aa the weath er opena up in early spring, remove the glass, and a week or two later the board. In this section, fall sown Sweet Peas begin to flower with us quite early In May, certainly several weeks ahead of plants from seed sown in the early spring, and these plants ' continue blooming throughout the entire season. quite as long as the plants irom spring sowings. The advantage of going to this little extra trouble Is obvious. When sowing in September or October in the south, or in sweet -ea irame, do not cover the seed .more than two inches. Another Method of Fan Sowing. In littht, well drained mils and shel tered positions. Sweet Pea may be sown from the middle to the end of November. In making this sowing, however, the seed should be covered with at least three inches of soil. As soon aa the ground freezes hard cover the rows with a heavy mulch of rough litter. . This latter sowing Is made with tne object tbat the seeds may just have arerminated in the soil previous to frost, thereafter laying in cold storage, as it were, until the weather opena up in early spring. At this time the cov ering must be removed, aad the aoil llrhtlv stirred, breaking any hard crust .'that hay have formed. Beet Artk-ioe r f-au sowing. Where vour Sweet Peas are wanted primarily for cut flower, I would ug geet using the Early Flowering Spen cer varieties only. Of these the beet will be found among the following: Burnee's Early Enchantress. a bright deep rose pink. - Burpee's Early liveliness, ton MU a white kvuj, , . Burpee's Early King, a rich glowing crimson. Fordhook Pink aad White, with standard rich rose pink, white blush wings. Burpee's Early Pink Beauty, a charming ahade of soft pink on white ground. Burpee's Primrose Beauty, rloh primrose, suffused with rose. Fordhook Rose, rich carmine rose. Burpee' Rosy Morn, rich rose with crimson standard. Burpee's Early Banker, a fine white. Yarrawa, rosy pink wltn cream case. Where room will permit it might be well to also sow a rew or tne standard or summer flowering Spencers, and among the beat I can recommend are: Floradale Fairy, deep primrose. Margaret Atlee, deep pink on cream, Royal furpie. King White. The President, orange scarlet. Ch&rm. blush Dink. Constance Hlnton, Ivory white, fhlnrlr sAeded.l Elfrlda Pearson, charming ahade of light pink. Hercules, deep pink. Irish Belle, lilac Illuminator, salmon cerise. King Edward Spencer, rich crimson, Margaret Madison, asure Diue. Mrs. Routzahn, cream pink. Orchid, rich lavender. May Unwin, orange scarlet. Nubian, maroon. .... The seeds mentioned in this article may be purchased from, any reliable seed house at a very low coat How ever, W. Atlee Burpee e Company of Philadelphia publish a cultural leaflet on Sweet Peas. This with other leaf lets and a codv of their catalog offer. ing all these flowers may be had upon application.
