A few nionient.s after the plane left tho ground it plunged into a wood.- and caujrlit fire, and then the ten excur- sionists were given the "thrill" â€" but it was tho thrill of doatli.

Fall Bulbs Need Plenty of Food BoFemeal I.s Excellent Food; AvniJ Fresh Manure An impression is often hrdd that bulb.s which are newly piantcd in the Fall do not require plant food. It is true that mature bulbs have stored up food in thoinsoLcs which largely spuplies the energy f )r early spring grov.-tii, and which may be •ufficient to produce a flo.ver. But this is on'y part of She vtory. At thi! tinia the flower is being produced a large number .)f roots arc being forined. These roots seek in tho soil for p'ant food and water v.-hich they supply to the growing plant. If the;:»e is a dofi:iency of plant- food in the soil, the growth of the plant is greatly hampered. The production of a vigorous, perfect flower of normal size and color re- cpiire.s this additional nourishment taken from the sai, without which the flower v/ill certain'y <<nff.r. and may fall entirely. I'''ully as important is fo'.vcr pro- duction is tho deveIopr;;>nt of well matured bulbs for the fsllo'ving year's flowering. Dulb .ilants that are neglected soon beconv," v.'orthless. Since bulbs start to grov so early in the Spring, it is difficult to work plant food into the soil so .n to get it down to the bulbs before gravth starts. -It is therefore advi :able to mix a complete plant food thorough- ly in the bottom of a trench at the rate of two pounds per 50 feet of row lieforo planting the bulbs. Also give a light feeding in the early spring. Sprinkle tho plant food around the plant shortly after it conies through the groun i. School. Angu.s is not just an averaera student. He stood third in his elasa last year and took honors in all his subjects. This year his aim is to stand right up. Myron -writes and draws with his mouth. He holds the pencil or pen or brush or whatever it is between his teeth. His writing is cxccdlent and some of his art work would do credit to students in the collegiate. He has done several landscapes in watercolors and shows remarkable ability with the brush. Myron is not a care, as one might suppose, to his parents. He does most things for himself, even to mashing his own potatoes. He merely puts the fork in his mouth and mashes them that v;ay. Chums pull him to school each day in a wagon and in tho win- ter tirvi ho is pulled back and forth on a sleigh.
