Plant Bulbs In The Fall For Best Spring Flowers Flowering bulbs which make the garden beautiful in spring do best when planted in Oc tober in North Carolina and must have a fertile, loamy soil filled with plant food. “There is nothing difficult in growing the common hardy bulbs which make the garden a pleasing display early next spring,’’says Glenn O. Randall, floriculturist at the North Car olina State College. “The first thing to do is to have a good garden soil. Most folks know what this means. The soil should be worked into good physical condition so that it is soft and loamy and not hard and cloddy or too sandy. Then a plentiful supply of well-rot ten manure is needed. Mantfre should never be used until it is thoroughly decayed. Then bone meal is a splendid commercial SAVE YOUR EYES (By Dr. John T. Campbell, Sec retary of the North Carolim Board of Examiners in Op tomery) Ordinarily the power of sigh is taken as a matter of course accepted as a part of our natu: al right. In consequence, th< eyes are the most overworkec organs of sense in the humar body. Few of us ever stop tc think that the eyes deserve resl and consideration just as much as the other parts of the body. Most persons are born wit! what is known as farsighted ness. This is the more normal condition of the eyes, for oui ancestors had little use foi close vision, rather they need' ed to see long distances as i matter of self protection, anc it takes many generations foi a change to take place in the physical proportions of any pari of the body. So most eyes have kept their original structure giving greater and clearer vis ion at more than a reading dis tance. At first, the lack of clear vis ion at near point is not noticed for there is no more adaptable organ in the body than the eye It will exert all its energy which is no mean power, to se cure perfect sight of objects close to it. But in doing this very thing it drains such ar enormous amount of energy from the system that many parts of the body may seem tc be out of order. That is why, for instance, headaches and nausea are frequently mistaken for organic disorders when the thing that is wrong is eyestrain. Now eyestrain sounds unim portant but when neglected, it not only may cause a consider able loss in sight, but impair ment of the general health of the individual. On the other hand, with proper care and bar ring accidents, we should keep our sight intact and in- excel lent working condition through out our entire lives. fertilizer to use.Tankage might be added in the spring before growth starts.” After the soil has been put in shape, plant the bulbs in Oc tober or even as late as the first of November in eastern part of the state, says Mr. Randall The important thing is to give thebulbs ample time to develop a good foot system before ex treme cold weather. ■The bplbs are set five to six inches deep with each bulb in solid contact with the soil. Dc not leave an air space below the base of the bulb. This checks the development of the root system. The best flowers are secured where the root sys tem ha$ had a chance to fully develop and to use all of the available plant food., If these simple precautions are observed, there is no reasor wrhy the gardner should nol have beautiful flowering bulbs next spring.

NEW CASH CROP IN LESPEDEZA SEED Growers of certified lespede za seed in piedmont North Car olina will make money this sea son and will find the crop more profitable than cotton. “Last week, I visited the farms of a number of lespedeza growers in piedmont Carolina who will pay old debts, cancel mortgages and build new build ings from the sale of lespedeza seed, part of which they have already contracted for at good prices,” said W. H. Darst, di rector of the seed improvement work at State College,who has been out with four men for the past several weeks inspecting lespedeza for seed certification. Mr. Darst says some 4,500 acres of lespedeza will be in spected for certification in that section of the State this year. This acreage will produce about a million and a quarter pounds of seed and though all of this will not pass the certification tests, much of it will. Mr. Darst reports on one grower who is building a new dairy barn and concrete silo that he will pay for with his seed mon ey this year. His seed has a value of $10,000 now. Another man said he would pay an old ! note for $6,000 because he had contracted to sell his seed for $8,000. Another said he will buy an additional farm this! year and many others told of ! their plans to clear up indebt- ! edness of long standing. Read The Messenger ads and \ buy it at home. ANY BABY WE can never be sure just what makes an infant restless, but the remedy tan always be the same. Good old Castorial There’s comfort in every drop of this pure vegetable preparation, and not the slightest fiarm in its frequent use. As often as Baby has a fretful spell, is feverish, or cries and can’t sleep, let Castoria soothe and quiet him. Sometimes it’s a touch of colic. Sometimes constipa tion. Or diarrhea—a condition that should always be checked without delay. Just keep Castoria handy, and give it promptly. Relief will follow very promptly; if it doesn’t, you hould call a physician.
