vegetables grown In spring and sum-
Imer /In practically all parts of the
South except in areas of high altitude

mato plants have succumbed to the
strain of high temperatures and dry-

/and continue to bear until fall, but
in others they will not survive. A
new crop should be planted now, and
It may be profitable to try the experi-
ment of planting both In the open
ground, where the plants are to rem-
maln, and In frames for transplanting.
The frames or beds should be lo-
cated In a relatively cool, shady
place. The same plan of field and
frame planting may be used for cab-
bage seedlngs. With this crop prom-
ising results have ulready been ob-
tained by plantlug several seeds In a
hill and thinning to one plant. If the
field planting should sot survive, how-
ever, in some Instances, the grower.
It is (minted out, is protected by hnv-
lng on hand the frame-grown plants.
Ordinarily the seed planted direct to
the field will produce an earlier crop
than seed planted In a frame and trans-
planted.
Among the vegetables which may bo
planted at practically any time dur-
ing the summer, with fair assurance
of success, are beans. Bush squash
may also be planted even In the hot-
test weather If they have not been
made a part of the garden at an ear-
lier season. With the beginning of
August practically the entire list of
ordinary vegetables Is open to the fall
gardener for choice. Beets, parsnips,
carrots, celery, sweet corn, radishes,
lettuce and peas may be planted at
this time, many of them In succession
crops at frequent Intervals. Later In
the month and during the early part of
September, kale, spinach, mustard,
turnips, gcollards and parsley mny also
be planted. t)uring September onion
sets should be put out and In October,
and even later, onion seeds may be
planted far a spring crop.
Crops for Winter.
Among the crops of these late plant-
ings which the Southern gnrdener will
find available for winter use, are beets
and the other root crops, such as
parsnips and carrots, and kale, col-
lards, spluach and mustard. Many of
the plants, he will find, may be car-
ried by slight protection even Into
quite cold weather without suffering
damage. To Uu crops which will be
carried over for development In the
early spring should be added salsify
or oyster plant, which may be plant-
ed practically any time during the late
summer or early fall.
The following specific directions for
fall planting of certain Reeds In the
South have been prepared by the de-
partment's plant specialists:
Beets.
Beets planted la the South 1= Ar-
gus t and early September will produce

Kale.
Kale can be grown in the open
throughout the winter In practically
all sections of the South. ’ Sow the
seed In September and October In

vation, and 30 Inches for horse culti-
vation. As soon as the plants reach a
height of 4 or 5 Inches they should
be thinned. The plants pulled may be
used for^.greens. The cultivation fdr

(Prepared by the United States Depart-
ment of Agriculture.)
The sheep tick Is a widely prevalent
parasite which is spreading rapidly,
especially among the dose-herded
range flocks. It Irritates the sheep
which it infests, making them so rest-
less tijat they do not feed well. This
results In retarding the wool growth
and indirectly the wool is some times
injured by the animals’ scratching and
Tubbing themselves. A loss of approx-
imately 25 cents a head for iambs and
2p cents a head for ewes Is consid-
•4ed a conservative estimate for the
fa mage done to Infested flocks.
Control by Dipping. v
; Sheep ticks can readily be controlled
by the use of one of a number of
Clipping solutions. These are described
In detail In a new publication of the

the common mistakes sheepmen make.
Dipping Lambs.
In dipping young lambs, it is well
to separate them from the sheep, In
order to minimize the danger of their
being drowned In the vats. This is
especially true of very young lambs.
If. however, the lambs are
separately, it Is perfectly safa^to dip
any more than a month old. Tney will
recover readily from the slock and
will grow ifnd thrive much mire rapid-
ly after the Irritation causef by the
ticks has been removed. ,,

HOG PASTURE IS ESSENTI
Te Make Gains Economically
Need Forage Crop to G
Sorghum Is Favored.
(By IK A W CARPENTER, Mississippi
Experiment Station.)
It behooves every former not only
during the food crisis but In nortnal
times to keep up a good breeding of
hogs, and see that the porkers be made
to attain a weight of 150 pounds, at
least, before marketing. To make these
gains most economically the hogs need
a forage crop to graze. Patches of
onts, wheat, bailey or ftny of the cover
crops now growing pn the farm can be
utilized until a feed crop can be raised.
Next In order Is a good permanent
pasture.
Tn ease no cover crop Is available
the crop that will furnish grazing ear-
liest is sorghum, planted broadcast on
fertile land. The hug# may be turned
on this when the sorghum is six to-
efglit Inches high. While the hogs are
on pasture or grazing crops they
should be fed from one to two pounds
of concentrate per 100 pounds live
weight. Corn and soy beans planted
together will give the earliest fatten-
ing crop. For succession crops, pea-
nuts, sweet potatoes corn and velvet
beans, or a later crop of corn and soy
beans might he planted.

in handling and using 1L The meth-
ods of making and applying this pre-
paration are described In the bulletin
already mentioned. Another disad-
vantage which It possesses Is the fact
that there Is no way of testing, as In
the case of ssme of the other prepara-
tions, the strength of the solution In
the field. It Is well known that all the
solutions used for dipping sheep de-
teriorate with use and may, If not test-
ed, frequently become so weak that
the sheep to pass through will receive
HtMe or no benefit.
There should be two dlpptngs at an
Interval of 24 days. The first may be
felled upon to kill all the mature in-
sects on the sheep, but it may not
reach those which are In what 1b
known as the pupal stage, In which
they are protected by a hard brown
shell. In this shell the tick remains
for from 19 to 24 days, when It
emerges as a mature InsecL

Although the sheep tick is most
prevalent In the western range states,
where sheep are herded In large

ly everywhere where sheep are kept.
It Is difficult to keep sheep Infested
with this parasite In a thrifty condi-
tion, nnd the most economical and ef-
ficient method of dealing with the
problem is the dip. The cost of dip-
ping will vary, of course, with local
conditions—labor, fuel and the neces-

In all weathers the skin and com-

soft and white by the use of this inex-
pensive lemon lotion which any girl or
woman can easily prepare.
The Juice of two fresh lemons strain-
ed into a bottle containing three
ounces of orchard white makes a whole
quarter pint of the most remarkable
lemon skin beautlfier at about the
cost one must pay for a small Jar of
the ordinary cold creams. Care should
be taken to strain the lemon juice
through a fine cloth so no lemon pulp
gets In, then this lotion will keep fresh
for months. Every woman knows that
lemon Juice Is used to bleach and re-
move such blemishes ns freckles, sal-
lowness and tan, And is the Ideal skin
softener, smoothener and beauttfier.
Just try Get of
orchard white at any pharmacy and
two lemons from the grocer and make
up a quarter pint of this sweetly fra-
grant lemon lotion. It naturally
should help to soften, freshen, bleach
and bring out the roses and hidden
beauty of any skin. Those who will
make It a habit to gently massage this
lotion Into the face, neck, arms and

paid with a skin that Is flexible jtnd
