It begins to look as though some aon-ot-a-gun has kidnaped spring.

Indianapolis lias had a tow-in ordinance which means that n you park your car in thq wrong place or too long, police tow it in to a city pound and hold it until you setjle.

Illinois and West Virginia are on a strike, which may affect the prices of that commodity. However the winter demand is about over, there is a large surplus and the matter will probably be adjusted before next year’s supply is necessary. The miners have for years had a tough proposition and they probably figure they might as well'be starved as half starved. Gerald Collins, two-year-old lad ot Richer, Oklahoma, fell twentytwo feet down a drill hole at a lead and zinc mine and was brought out alive after twelve hours Imprisonment. a rescue that made every one feel happy.

Merchants of Wyandotte. Michigan, decided that many residents , of their city were hoarding money. ! I They thought strongly in the matter ami decided to test their opinion. They recently advertised that < 5 per cent discount would be given on all merchandise purchased with i the old large-size currency. At the < close of the day the merchants reported that many hoarded bills had < been used in making purchases. Business is a good deal like a ' road. Part of it is level, part up , hill, and then down. The level 1 part of the business road we call normalcy. Then we go up the hill of pro-polity to the top of the hill , and that is the peak of the boom. Then we go down the hill, and going down is the depression. We finally reach the bottom, and that is the panic. The time to be the ! most alarmed is at the top. because then the only certain way is down. The time to be hopeful is at the bottom because then the only way out is up.—Mid-West Magazine. o ♦ ♦ Answers To Test Questions I Below are the answers to the Teat Ques'ions printed on Page Two. • « 1.

Joel McCrea.

McCrea will play opposite Constance Bennett. This w»s decided late yesterday when David Selznick pulled some production wires to allow the favored young actor to appear in “The Truth About Hollywood.” Several other things were lined up for Joel, not to

mention what work he has left to do on ’‘The Bird of Paradise.” But as a quick decision was necessary on the Bennett picture, Seiznick shelved everything else In its favor. If the Del Rio film isn’t finished in time. Joel will have to double up, which would give him the unique distinction of i playing simultaneously opposite two’ of Radio’s most important i feminine stars. “The Truth About Hollywood” is, of course, the original story by Adela Rogers Hyland, who now holds a responsible advisory as writing position at R-K-0 Sincfthe picture was announced a few weeks hack, report had given the lead to Helen Twelvetrees and Clara Bow before Connie finally drew the plum Robert Presnell is rushing the adaptation, for Director George Cukor expects to start production this week.

1 wat. is I WITHOUT A Grow Good Quality Spinach . . i

Improvement in the quality ofi i spinach has been most marked in I the last few years due to the efforts of foreign plant breeders. 1 particularly Danish specialists: The size of the leaves have been more than doubled. They are heavier and more substantial in ] texture than old-time sorts aivl, each plant yields much more; heavily. Get some of the new and improved spinach types for tingarden this year. Sbed catalogues, of all first-class firms list new; types. Then. too. spinach should be given first-class garden treatment j to get best results from it. 3 »<•; old-time method of broadcasting! seed as if sowing a lawn and letting the spinach shift for itself I never gave the best results and ! is even a worse method for the ■ heavier leaved types than it was, for the old-time smallerleave-l types. For best results plant spinach, in rows, thin to six inches apart.! and each spinach plant will produce a huge rosette of ’caves. In this method the plant can be made to do more than triple duty by cutting the leaves and letting it make more instead of pulling it up bodily as is usually the custom ; so that each plant yields only one OHIO PRIMARY IN MAY OFFERS COLORFUL RACES Sixty-fivc Stek Nomination To State And Federal Offices By Henry T.

; day's crop. Make the soil as mellow and rich as possible for spinach. It is ' a short season crop and all short season crops must make speedv growth to produce quality results. Warm sandy soil which has been ' well fertilized is ideal for a good -.land of spinach. Good cultivation speeds the growth. In growing any vegetable, if it is worth grow i ing at all It is worth growing for all it is worth. You might as well make each spinach plant yield -us ' big a crop as it can as be content with pulling it up when it has proI duced only half the leafage it Jan I If given a fair chance. r Spinach seed can be sown Just as soon as the soil can be gotten'; j into condition for it. It can even l be sown in the fall and allowed to' come up in the spring as soon as I germinating weather arrives. Get . the seed in early, thin the plants carefully, cultivate, ail'd a light : dressing of nitrate of soda wi’l ; speed the leaf production. Study the new types.
