That equals 113,750,000 days ot eight hours each, or 311,644 years. "The war gardeners intend to set an example to the country and show that daylight saving can be turned into one group.

TALCOTT I'RBPAHE SOIL WELI Preparation of tho garden soil for receiving the seeds is one of the most important things connected with tho gtrden, siij-s today's bulletin from the war garden commission, which is co-operating with this puper in aiding the city farmers.

Why is this so important do von ask? Simply because the tiny feeding root lets of the plants must get nil through tho soil to tnko up tho minuto portions of dissolved plant food, with which good soil Is well supplied. If tho ground is well pulverised the plant's roots con grow through and reach out in all directions for plant food and moisture. If tho ground is full of clods It will dry out and the roots cannot work through a dry cloddv soil verv troll More than this, the roots cannot get any moisture out of clods. All of the food which a plnnt gets from the soil must bo taken up dissolved In soil mnl. lure.

Rome one has snld th.it plants live on "soup," and that Is about right. Thero might be bushels of nlont fio.i around phut, but. if it is not dissolved in soil moisture the plant would starve to death, Now, to get tho carrten .,...1, good condition that the plants will have mreo good squaro meals and "lots of driuks" everv rt.iv. and win h. dependent of Mr.

Hoover and his almost eaueas days, the ground should he prepared as follows, says the bulletin. As soon ns It is dry enough plow er spade It ns deep as yon can. and not throw up much of tho poor subsoil. If it is clay, or sandv loam subsoil, and Is plowed, try plowing up uio oi every furrow, letting it (oil tack In place. If tho ground must he dug up with a snnnV l.f one stdo and dig out trench the width oi tne sptHie.

Then dig up the subsoil spade-deep in this trench and throw It right back where It was.

Work the ground, with rake or cultivator until It Is weU pulverised. Do this right plowing or spading, while It Is moist and works easily.

TELLS HOW TO PLANT Seed for a garden must be planted not only at tho right time, but at tbc right depth, says today's bulletin 'from the national war garden commission of Washington, which is co-operating with this paper in urging food garden plant ing to enable city furmera to. feed themselves.

Plant seeds shallow, unlosa special directions tell you otherwise. An old rule is to plant to a depth equal to live times the width of the seed. Ocpth of planting depends somewhat upon tho kind of soil. If it is heavy cloy or soil that is continually moist, tho planting should be shallower than in sandy or dry soil. However, it Is Important you plnnt all seeds of the some row at tho snmo depth.

This gives uniformity of growth. Unless the soil is wet the beds should he firmed down on top before the rows aro marked off. Fine raking will do this, especially if you finish the job by smoothing tho surface with the back of the rake. Wliou Bceds are in the soil should bo firmed over them by pressing down the row with a hoe. Never pack the soil hard.

These directions apply to seeds in ordinary soils: String beans, 1 to 2 inches; lima beans, 1 inch; beets, inch; ctirrots, inch; Swiss chard. inch; corn, 1 inch; cucumbers, 1 inch; endive, inch; kohl rabi, inch; lettuce. inch; muskmclon, i inch; onion sets (bulbs), 1 inch; oyster plnnt, inch; parsley, ifa inch; parsnip.
