While the great majority of veg-
tahles demand soil of the same
haracter. there is a. much greater
lversity in the like and dislikes of
rname a1 plants. There are two
eneral divisions of soils, mineral
nd vegetable. For the best garden
mixture of the two is required in
.1'eater or less proportion, depend-
ng upon the original soil.

Under the first division fall the
andy. clayey and stony soils and
1e kind of soil usually referred to
loam. a. term very loosely used
nd often applied to black soil
which is not loam. A sandy soil us~
, ually is found associated with clay
and the percentage of sand in such
soil is from '70 to $0 per cent. When
the clay is present to the extent of
about 0 per emit. it is loam. usually
brownish in color. If the clay pre-
dominates it is known as clay loam;
if the sand predominates. it is sandy
loam.

The ideal garden soil contains
both vegetable and mineral soil and
is neither decidedly acid nor sour
nor too heavily —lmpregnated with
lime.

Humus, a necessary content of
good gardening soil. is a term ap-
plied to decayed vegetable matter.
Beat and leaf mold are almost pure
humus.

Mineral soils are formed by the
decomposition of rock. vegetable
soils by the decay of leaves and the
woody structure of plants. Most
soils contain a proportion of each
but show distinctive characteristics
of one type or the other. A knowl-
edge of the nature of the soil may
be. determined by examination very
easily. Dissolving loam in water
will show the percentage of sand
readily as the sand sinks to the bot-
tom of the. glass while the clay is
held in suspension.

ually called warm soils. “700:! soil
is also classed as warm from the
ability to absorb heat. Clay and
peat soils are often referred to as
cold soils.

THE FLOWER GARDEN PLAN

 

Acarefuliy thought out plan for the
flower garden is even more neces-
flower garden is even more neces-
sary than for the vegetable garden
for the all lirional element of color is
an important factor and upon the
harmonious arrangement of color, to
a great extent, will depend the ef-
frrctivencss of the display. The sea-
sons of flowering also must be con-
sidered to secure a continuous wealth
of bloom from early July when the
annuals burst into their glory until
killing frosts.

A favorite plan for a. small place
is to plant the flowers in a. border
framing the lawn. This is an ex-
cellent scheme. but r'equires much
more care and though to arrange cf-
1 cctively than a garden composed of
formal beds devoted to one variety
each.

The taller annuals should be plac-
ed towards the back, permitting the
tall groups to come-to the front oc-
cas.onally to obviate too monotonous
an out-line garding the medium
height to the low growing and edg-
mg annuals at the front. A prime
factor in the happy arrangement of
a flower border is to see to it that
the annuals are. planted in bold

 

groups of sufficient extent to give an
opportunity for the full effect of the
color display.

Thcs. border plantings should not
be m: e too wide in order to per-
mit of their weeding and cultiva-
tion. l-‘ivc feet is a. convenient width
and about as much as con conveni-
ently he cared for from the front. If
wider borders are desired a path in
the rear should be provided to per-
mit of proper handling.

The so-called colonial style gar-
den is very effective, particularly for
a. small yard. This consists of rec-
tangular beds arranged with grass.
gravel or dirt paths between them.
In gardens of this sort it is custom-
ary to devote each bed to a separate
variety of plant and here the ingen-
uity of the gardener may be excerci-
scd to the limit in selecting pleasing
color harmonies and contrasts.

Beds of zinnias. asters. marioglds.
verbenas. and other annuals of sep-
arate colors make very effective
planting. A bed of one col-1r is al-
ways moré effective than a mixed
plantlng. unless the annual is one in
which the/range of color is very lim-
ited, as for instances, the annual
pinks.

 

TEN POINTS ABOUT PLANT FOOD

 

Ten articles of food are daily con-
sumed by a growing plant and are
necessary for its life. Some of these
the plants take out of the air, but
the othe;s must come from the
earth through the roots. The gar-
dener must make up any deficiency
:‘or the best success of his crops.
The ten are chemical elements, as
lollows: hydrogen. oxygen. nitrogen,
carbon, phosphorus, potassium,.us-
sually known as potash.calc1um,
iron. sulphur, and magnesium. Some
of til-:- se are used only in very small
uuc .n' ities but they are essential to
the health of the plant. Three oth-
crs are A1511ally found in plants, so-
diurn. silicon and chlorine, but they
are not so essential and 'need not be
considered in feeding growing crops.

The hvdrogen and oxygen in the
form of water make up the greatest

not present or present in too small
quantity the deficit must be made up
in the form of fertilizers or manures.

The amount of water taken from
the soil by a plant in comparison to
the amount of solid or dry material
it produces is amazing . Corn, ac-
cording to experiments conducted. by
the government investigators, takes
369 pounds of water to one of solids.
Alfalfa tops the list with 1.068
pounds of water to one of solids.
Oats take 614 pounds. It will be
seen very readily that cats require
more moist conditions than other
vegetables. Alfalfa. because of the
great depth to which its roots pene-
trate. stands drought conditions bet-
ter than many other crops because
surface drought does not affect it so
much.

Preservation of water in the soil
is of prime importance and the cat
effective means is by cultivat on of
growing craps, keeping the soil
about them stirred so that evapora-
tiOn carrying the moisture from the
soil into the air. is retarded.

It also shows why such crops as
cabbages, which are principally wa-
ter, will not flourish under drought
conditions or in soil which is naturr
ally dry, such as sandy soils. When
such conditions prevail. they must
be changed by the gardener in or-
der to furnish the plants proper
growing conditions. Fortunately
this change is not dimcult and is
easily accomplished by spading or
plowing in stable manure or by the

use. of semiarid fertilize 7 .,

ALL-SEASON ANNUALS

 

All-season annuals furnish the fin-
est material for the, flower garden so
far as outdoor display is concerned.
.\11 all—season annual is one that
blooms continuously front late June
or early Jilly until stopped by frost.
In this list are, the zinnias.‘marigolds.
verbcnus. nasturtiums. calendulas.
nicotianas nr flowering tobaccos, an-
nual gailardias and several others.

Thvy will form the backbone of

the annual garden for all-around dis- ,

play. Astcrs are a. comparatively
short-season annual. coming
bloom 1'11 late summer and fall.

The cornflowers are

nual poppies and annual larksprus.
The blooming season of these an—
nuals 111a ylic greatly prolonged by
keeping the fading flowers cut:' By
this means the larkspur may be
made to do duty for the greater part
of the season but if allowed to form
seed it will quit.

For a garden designed principally
for display
cut flowers. it is best to plant thv
all-season annuals. growing flowers
of shorter season and for cutting in
a reserve garden.

All season edging plants should be
used freely and the dwarf lobelim
and sweet; alyssu mare standbys for
this purpose. The agrcatum anz‘:
dwarf marigold. Tagetes signals. pu-
mila. of a little taller growth are also
excellent.

These all-season annuals should be
varied by liberal plantings of some
of the shorter-season plants for vari-

ety. Among these the brilliant
phlox Drummondl is an excellent
plant. It gives a compartively long

season of bloom if the fading flow-
ers are cut. g

Nitrate of soda is the speed mer-
chant of the garden undone of the
cheapest of commercial fertilizers. It
is a. great stimulant and is a standby
in the garden stock room. A supply
always should be on hand. It is the
great fertilizer where quick growth
of foliage is desired and therefore
it is unusually valuable for vege-
tables. the leaves of which are the
edible portions.

It promotes growth and gives col-
or to the foliage.

While nitrate is a powerful and
quick acting fertilizer, it needs to be
used with care. Used in too great
quantity it will injure or even kill a.
plant. In case of doubt it is best
to use it as a. liquid fertilizer.
suantity used safely is a-scant tab1e-
spoonful to a. square yard and the
same amount to a. gallon of water.
A teaspoonful‘ls sufficient to scatter
about plants of large growth such
as a sabbage or an egg plant. As
the nitrate is receiVed it looks like
dirty rock salt. Lumps should be
pounded fine until it is the consist-
ency of coarse - salt and can be

 

sprinkled thinly. . It should be scat

Lime aids in nitrification and liber-

Nitrates furnish the plant the nec-
essary supply of nitrogen. While n1-
trate of soda. is the concentrated and
most easily obtainable supply of this
nece ry element, nearly all fertil~
12ers contain a percentage of it. The
ammonia in fermenting manure is
a. nitrogen conapound and one of the
valuable supplies. Ammonia in wa-
ter furnishes a. nitrogen fertilizer
often used with excellent results on
house plants.

A thin dressing of nitrate should
not be applied more often than once
in film or «three weeks. A little ex-
periment if in doubt as to the needs
of the soil can be made with 111-

Short Wave Broadcasting '
Receiver Easily Made

 

 

There is at present great interest
in the work being done by the sta-
tion KDKA in broadcasting across
the Atlantic Ocean to England on
100 meters. and also of the re-
broadcastlng station KFKX. Hast-
ings. Nebraska, which receives its
program frim KDKA on a» 94 meter
wave, and then rebroadcasts on a
higher wavelength. .

The advantages of the short
wavesgare not entirely demonstrated
as yet, but there are two or three
qualities which recommend them.
One is that the signals seem to come
through with great intensity, re-
garless of weather conditions. There
is much less fading than on the
usual broadcast waves and the sig-
nals usually seem to be as strong in
the daytime as at night.

\Vith all this in mind. we are
going to describe 'today the building
of a. set which will receive the 94-
metcr wave from KDKA. This set
will make use of the parallel vario-
meters which we previously describ-
ed this Week, and will be no more
difficult to construct than any other
type of receiver. Contrary to the
general opinion, a. set operating a;
round loo-meters is no more diffi-
cult to handle than any other kind
and the broadcast listener will pro-
bably not notice any difference be-
tween the operation of this outfit
and his larger set.

The hookup of the set is shown in
Fig. 1. and consists of a simple re-
generative one tube oufit. Consid-
erable. experimentation has indi—
cated that there is little use in try-
ing to use radio frequency ampli-
fication on the 100 meter wave, as
the amplification is so slight per
stage as to be practically useless.
This, of course, would not apply to
a superheterodyne.

Notice in the hookup that we use
a. two circuit arrangement. in which
the primary consists of one or two

turns of wire. untuned, and the var-
iometer is used as the entire second-
ary. This will give sharp tuning. but
at the same time will necessitate
only one tuning control, which is the
left- hand \hriometer. The right-
hand variometer is used in the us-
ual way to secure regeneration.

The method of placing the prim-
ary may need a word of explanation
The primary turns may be of any-
thing from hell wire (No. 18 D. C.
(L) to No. 24 double or single cot—
ton covered. Now-.1 f the vario-
meter is a moulded variometer, and
has a little shoulder on each side of
the stator. as at "A" in Fig 2, you
can wind tile primary right on one
of these shoulders, fixing it in
place with a few drops of sealing
wax. If it is not posSible to do this
simply wind the primary turns so
that their diameter is about the
same as the hole at one end of the
variometer stator, and then stick
them up against the end with seal-
ing wax. or adhesive tape.

The method of connecting vario-
meters in parallel was described
two days ago. and will not be re-
described here. '

Any tubes may be used with this
set and should function without
difficulty. One hundred meters will
probably be tuned in somewhere be-
tween zero and 40 on the vario—
metcr dial. assuming zero is mink
muya. On account of the sharper
tuning encountered on the short
waves it would be well to equip the
tuning variometer with some sort
of vernier. which may be either a
mechanical vernler, operating on
the dial. or a midget verner conden-
ser, connected across the variomet-
er. No shielding will be needed, as
the set. if connected as shown, will
be practically entirely free from
hand capacity effects.

After Mnssoltni‘s Victory.
(New York Herald- Tribune.)

The Italian national spirit was
never higher than it is today. The
Socialists, syndicalists and other an-
tl-nationalist elements have been
routed. Italy wants to re-establish
her prosperity and strengthen her
international position by frugality,
labor and self-sacrifice. The Fas-
cist theory puts national duty above
bloc selfishness and political splois-
mongering. It will remain for Mus-
solini to show that it can retain its
purer traditions in days of relaxed
tension and constitutional
macy.

Hoiv‘ Waves Operate
Loop Antenna

By CARLTON E. BUTLER
Radio Engineer. ‘ .
Yesterday I explained how t“
loop aerial picked up and utilised
the energy frOm the waves on“
by the broadcasting station. '
statement was made that s W
aerial is very directional. I wills!-
plain why a loop aerial receive. tit;
most energy when it is pointed. It
the direction of the station.
A very elementary law of dog-
tricity explains that whenever" Q
conductor or wire is placed in 814.3%
field or force surrounding moth-r
conductor carrying current. and tho
current is changed or varied QM
current carrying conductor. I. air-1
rent will be set up on the of“
conductor. .

The radio wave from the . 5 .
casting station. lines of dam
force, are traveling at the upset '
light to a?! points of the, co“ '
from the transmitting station.
these waves pass around or cut
wire of the loop antenna. they 1
duce a current in the wire of a
loop.

The oncoming radio wave
the wires on one side of the
before it cuts those on the n, J
side. The time difference betweat
the instant that it cuts the ,
on one side and the time it m
the wires on the opposite side ll 83
small that it would have to b.
measured in lllllliOlllllS of a second.

This difftrt—nce in time is Buffi-
cient for a phase difference to re-
sult. That is, the wave cycle of tho
front half of the loop will be slight:
ly ahead of the cycle of the oppo-
site half. This will cause a. current
to flow in the inductance of the re-
ceiver in much the same manner
as if a regular aerial and ground,
were used.

If the loop is turned so that It it
facing the sending station. then i
is obvious that the wave will «cut
all of the wires at the same fifno
and no phase. difference can occur
Then no currtnt will flow through
the inductance of the receiver from
the two end of the loop and you:
will not hear the station.

"Relative Value" by Sophie Kerr. '
