SOME TRIED WINTER HINTS
By E. VAN BENTHUYSEN.
When the hanging basket looks
shabby, or Is at a standstill, It is very
likely it has been neglected as regards
watering. Remember it is wholly sur
rounded by air, and requires moro
water than the potted plants.
Plants will not flourish If they
must breathe gas generated by coal or
wood in stove or furnace, or escaping
illuminating gas. Stop the leaking
gas, and give ventilation by raising
and lowering a window at some dis
tance frpm the plants so that the colt},
air iqay get warm before It striked
the >plfurts. ; ; ' :
Liquid fhntiure Is valuable when,
usdd with caution and good common
sense. Do , not make it too strong,

not givfe it to plants that are not grow

rest. ’

sun dries it up.

of moisture —just like the pansy.

It needs repotting. If dead or rotten
leaves are found, remove them. If
for any cause live roots are removed
through design or accident, be sure to
cut back the top to correspond. Then
give a smaller pot than the plant pre

Give fresh air liberally. Keep the
air moist. See that the plants are
kept clean.
Save the hen manure carefully. If
your soil is heavy, add wood ashes to
l lie hen manure, but if the soil Is light
and snndy, use leaf-mold or rich loam.
Ornamental trees and shrubs may
be pruned any time during the win
ter If they need It. Bear in mind that
pruning should not destroy the char
acteristics of growth peculiar to the
tree or shrub. Cut back the too
prominent branches, remove those that
grow too closely together. If bloom

ends of the branches they will in time

Watch the aphis and fight It from
the start, else it will destroy your win

If blight attacks your begonias, cut
off all the leaves having a burnt ap

blight.

NIGHT BLOOMING CEREUS
The genuine night blooming cereus
is a snaky-looking plant, but from the
time the buds appear in the early
spring, looking like tiny tufts of cot
ton, until the wondrous bldSsoms are
perfected, the plant is always an ob
ject of interest.
The opening of a cereus blossom
can never be appreciated until seen.
There is the quivering of the petals,
the gradual disclosing of the creamy
interiors, within which Is a mostx mar
velops mechanism of stamens sur
rounded by the star-like pisti}.. Only
the white pond lily gives a suggestion
of the wondrous purity of the ce
reus and.even:thUr the cereus far trans
cends. ' Yet it Is easlly'*gro\yn. ' **
If insects attack, spray or wash off
with kerbsene emulsion, a wing being
excellent for cleaning this plant. The'
scale and aphis are its chief enemies.
Some plants are slow in attaining
blooming size, yet when this is once
reached they are faithful each year.
The humming bird and the rat-tail nr**
notable for exceptions, blooming nicely
when but a few months or a year old.
SALVIAS AS CUT FLOWERS
The salvia splendens, or scarlet sage,
makes a beautiful vase flower, al
though it is not seen in vases as of
ten as it should bel Grown out of
doors. It should be bedded In large
masses and does best where tlie sun
shines freely. If well cared for it will
maintain its beautiful splendor of deep
red from midsummer until frost cuts
it down. It Is important that the soil
shall not contnin too much nitrogen,
as in that case the plants make too
rank growth and produce few flowers.
Lifted just before frost and put in
the window in a bright, warm place,
salvias will remain very attractive for
five or six weeks.
There are about 60O species of this
plant, which include all of the sage
family. The meaning of salvia is “to
keep safe or healthy” and refers to
the medicinal properties of the com
mon sage, but it is one of the most
popular common flowers and well de
serves its popularity.
CARE OF THE PLANTS
If a plant appears sick, examine its
roots. Perhaps you will find that It
needs repotting. If dead or rotten
leaves are found remove them. If for
any cause live roots are removed
through design or accident be sure to
cut back the top to correspond. Then
give a smnller pot than the plant previ
ously had.
Temperance Notes

Christian Temperance Union.)
TRANSPORTATION SITUATION.
Hon. Jeanette Banfcln. member ol
congress from Montana, writing In the
Chicago Herald on the federal food bill
and Its prohibition amendment, empha
sizes very forcefully the transporta
: tlon side of this economic problem,
i We quote:
"The converting of grains Into food
products Instead of Into liquor would
not stop In Its beneficial results with
me mere Increase In food supplies. It
wonld touch the heart of a problem of
food distribution which has been long
begging for solution.
| "For years we have known that the
reasop produce was rotting In the
, fields In one part of the country while
; men, women and children were starv
-1 lng In another part of the country, was
because transportation facilities were
Inadequate to transfer all available
food from Its source of production to
the consumer.
I “According to the United States sta
tistics abstract for 1016, there are In
this country 2,858,338 freight cats.
There were consumed In this country
In 1916 almost 500,000 carloads of
liquor, Including more Hum 85,000 car
loads of wine and splrltous liquors and
more than 868,000 carloads of beer.
"Of course, much of this liquor was
consumed In the same locality In which
It was produced, so that perhaps one
third of It, or even one-half of it, never
necessitated the use of freight cars for
conveyance. But It Is conservative to
estimate that the transportation of
liquor In the United States requires
the use of 10 per cent of the freight
cars available for use In this conn
try.
"Two hundred thousand freight cars
would go a long way toward rellev
' lng the transportation situation with
regard to food products, and the re
j lease of these cars for this service
would greatly augment the paring
knife campaign which the women of
the country have been urged to wage
In the Interests of the war.
"Inasmuch as the production of beer
In this'country has occupied Just ten
times the bulk of splrltous liquors
and wines, the exemption of beer and
i light wines from the prohibition regu
lations would mean that less than one
eighth of the possibly available freight
cars (to say nothing of the grains
used) would be released for food trans
portation.” '

BREWERS WABTING GRAIN.
Barley mixed In the bread makes a
bread which has as fine a texture as
wheat. . . . And would enable us
to release just exactly that quantity of
wheat. . . . There Is a certain de
duction from the barley—the* total
barley used In brewing—to account for
the malt which lq given back to the
feed, but even then there Is a large
margin of saving If the brewing could
be cut out The difference be
tween the feeding value and the fod
der and the intake of the breweries in
grains means just that much more
foodstuffs to our allies. . . . We
could save from 60,000,000 to 00,000,-
000 bushels of grain on the brewing
side after having allowed for the fod
der proposition, and that grain Is of
utmost value to our allies.—Herbert
O. Hoover, pages 889, 417, Hearing Be
fore Senate Committee on Agriculture.
| A CONVERTED MAYOR.
Bev. W. J. Johnson, secretary of the
Presbyterian Board of Missions for
the middle West, to Mayor J. O. Dahl
man of Omaha, who during the Ne
| braska wet and dry campaign was a
pro-liquor advocate: “Mr. Mayor, I
have come out here from Chicago to
see the harm that prohibition has done
to your city.”
Mr. Mayor: “Well, sir, you’ve come
to the wrong place. Tou'll find a city
vastly Improved, both from a moral
and a business standpoint Prohibition
has done wonders for Omaha, and 1
am thoroughly converted to the dry
cause.”
CATCHING UP WITH LUTHER.
Martin Luther said: “I have prayed
to God that he would destroy the whole
brewing Industry. . . . All Ger
many could live on the barley that Is
spoiled and turned Into a curse by the
brewer.” This year, the four hun
; dredth anniversary of the Reforma-
I tlon, the world is at last awake to the
j crime of spoiling food to make drink,
and Lutber's prayer may be answered
before the year ends.
DON'T TOLERATE IT.
The slaughterhouse Is a nuisance
because the odor that comes from It
cannot be confined to the land on
which It Is situated; It Is as impossible
to confine the evil Influence of the sa
loon to the city that licenses It.—The
Country Gentleman.
GOOD PLACE FOR ARMY.
In an address at Little Bock, Ark,
Gen. Leonard Wood told the audience
that Arkansas Is a fit place f or training
the Twelfth division of the army be
cause the state Is under prohibition.
> "That will eliminate three-fourths of
our troubles,” be said. "Whisky Is the
soldier’s worst enemy."
GOOD FOR ALE.
We have now prohibited the sole of
liquor to oar soldiers and sailors. If
