There are only certain hardy herbaceous perennials which are considered to do best if planted In the fall, and most of taese can be planted early in spring if they are handled carefully. Those few which are said to take more klndiy to fall planting are the early spring 1 lowering varieties such a3 Blcsd-ing Heart, Columbine. Hepatlca.

Iris and Peonies. Practically aU the hardy lilies with the exception of the Madonno Lily can best be planted in the early spring. The important thing to remember in the spring planting of hardy herbaceous pertnnia's is to select varieties suited to the soil and conditions under which they are to grow, and then prepare the soil to a depth of 18 inches if possible. All hardy flowers re-pond beautifully to good sell where they can send their roots down to a consid erable depth without interference. Trees and Shrubs are planted more often in the spring than at any other season.

In fact, a few shrubs such as Butterfly Bush, Sweet Shrub, Sumac. Steplianan dra, Tamarix and Japanese Snow- ball should not be planted at any other time than in spring. Such trees a3 Sugar and Red Beech, Flowering Dogwood, White Birch, Sweet Gum and Tulip Tree, as well as all the nolias and Poplars are considered unsafe for planting at time of the year except in spring, especially in the northern climates where the winters are very severe. Coniferous evergreens do best in most every section when transplanted during thp spring. Some growers say it is best to handle them lust as the.

new growth starting in late spring, but spring is such a busy that it isn't posible. for everyone to get their plants just at time. However, if the plants are properly protected so STUDENTS HEAR C. F. SCOTT Former Congressman and Editor of lob Register Chapel Speaker Charles F.

Scott, Iola, veteran Kansas newspaper man and former TJ. S. gave the students of a college a glimpse of the two schoo's of thought from a political viewpoint Thursday morning in his talk. "A Stand uatcers Confession" of Faith." at student as- sembly. Since speaking here 'Rmift Bnf, skter that the ball of earth around theispeamng aepanment wm stage a 1918, the editor of the Iola Reg Tl Dn inter has changed his ideas concerning "standpatters" lor it was iothat talk he opposed this school of thought and favored the more ilberal group.

Two Types Of Mind how the word "standpatter" came into use in the political vocabulary, he stated the Republican campaign of 1900 brought itabout. The two types of mind, politically, were- the conservative and satisfied party which is termed as tht andpatters' and the more progressive or always hunting, for something better. The "standpatter is unwllUng to aban don the old practises until the new has been proved better. He declared the "standpatter" was for the right of property not only because it i3 written into the constitution but because it is written into human nature and because united with the right of life and personal liberty, has contributed more to the growth of civilization than any other institution by the human race, A Contrast With Socialism The speaker declared that he wa? a "standpatter" and that first cf ail he stood the constitution i of the United States and the gov-; ernment purpose is to gov ern and not to enter into commercial competition with its own citizens or to cperate coal mines or power plants. He continued by contrasting th's idea with the Sq ialistic creed which believes that there sha'J be no individual' right to property.

He urged the encouragement of the good will which has sprung up between the two countries in the past ten years.

RESTRAIN OPTOMETRY BOARD. A temporary restraining order roots does not dry out before the plants are planted, and the soil is then lept fairy moist around the plants 'after they are set, successful results may bs expected. There seems to be no argument about spring planting of fruits, Pears, Plums, Peaches and Cherries are almost certain to be successful If the plants are properly handled when placed in the ground. Grape vines, too, do well when planted in the spring. From this it may be seen that spring is really the oppor tunity to do most of the planting, and there is no better time than late winter days to figure out just what new plants will be purchased and where they will be located about ttw grounds.

Another great Incentive lor spring planning is Mrn'i Educational Fraternity Jumps To First Place From Seventh Phi Delta Kappa, honorary educational fraternity for men, heads the scholarship standings for the first semester according to the college registrar.

I felt sorry for myself the other I day because my work seemed end less, and I was tired before I was half done with It. Then I thought of the other women of the community and there wasn't one I would willingly have traded places with. Mrs. Jones has a husband who is an awful grouch, the Browns have have't been on speaking terms for two years, and they say that the little Johnscn boj will always be crippled. My house is -not modern nor up-to-date, either; but it is not a terrible eld hole like the Nor-tons live in.

I felt better right away. Jim doesn't carry a watch, and on the days that the sun doesn't shine he invariably comes in too early or late for dinner. Next Christmas I'm going to get him a dollar watch, and then I'll make it my duty to see thnt he has it on every morning when he leaves the house. I suppose I'll have to see that it is wound, too. And the.7 say that we have spring fever because we eat tco much.

It evidently isn't a problem that the reducing women have to contend with. We went to that shower for the newly married couple that live down the road. Yes, nearly all the neighbors were there. I think We'll like them line. They seemed.

PURPLE THE COLLEGE COLOR But It Is Popularly Believed White Is Official on Hill Kansas State college had no official college color until May 28, 1921. Sfnce about 1897 when the senior class of that year tried to have a college color officially adopted, purple and white have been usedn decoration, in yells, and songs, qr wherever a college color was receded It was not until the faculty meeting of May 28, 1921, however, that a that could correctly be called an official college color for this institution was adopted.

In the faculty minuts of that date appears the following entry: "Dean Willard brought up the question of a college color, stating that the records of the college gave no action concerning an official adoption of a color. Dean Willard moved, that roya lpurple be adopted ps the official college color. The was seconded and carried." The opinion current among many of the faculty members, students, friends of the college, and alumni tnat the colors are purple and white arises no doubt from the fact that has been used with the royal purple in decoration. AVIATION IS THEME FOR PLAY. "Children Of The Moon" To Presented Friday And Saturday Aviation, interspersed with moon madness, forms the theme for "Children of the Moon," the p'ty to be presented r-v the Manhattan Theater Frldzy and Saturday nights at the college auditorium.
