M«*atlme the dyht aymast one hoans plan or another is heiay wayed hy former service people. The New Tork state honue bill has been dropped for the Umh beiny laryaly as the result ef vfyorons protests tram Irngiom poets.

ATTEMPTS TO DEPRESS PRICES There seems to be eome prospect teat the Impulsive overall movement will he superseded by a eon^blnatlon ef wcar-your-old-clothee and buy-note-tny-unnocoseary movomonts. Tbe tentiment that ineptred the overall movement, which has become so popular In the last week or so. te wholly eoramendable, but like a good many other eommendahle sentiments did net fully take into consideration the eoneequeneee ef Itself. The ld#a was te force a reduction of the price of olotelny, and It ralyht have had thle effect utitmately: hot Its tmmsdlate effect was to Inereaee the price el overalls, which imposed a hardship oa many people who have to wear everatle at teelr work. The price of overalls was alraady hlyb* aa Is the price of all ootton manateoittres. thonyh whether fustry io* or nht may be doubted; and this doubt is increased by tbe annouttoement of the ■aeley cotton mllie, of Easley. S, C., that It has declared a stock dividend

of t## por esnt.

Tha svil e^ the overall movement waa that lt|^reased rapidly the demand for a Hmctal yarment for which heretofore there had been only a limited demand and coneequentljr a limited supply. Those who dealt In overalls saw tee opportunity that so many people ara lookiny for nowaday^ and yeaerally Valfed their piioea. The eomhtaed wear-your-old-clothes and huy-aotbiny-uaneceasary movement can have no such unfortunate after effect. It ereatea no apeeial damand for anythiny. aad if It achieves its eb|ec€ of doereasiay the demand for everythlny It would seem teat a depreaaaat effect oa prtoea la Inevttabla. One of tbe main troubles wa are sow aufrertny from is shortaye ef everythiay. eepeciaily labor. This aeeeeeartiy eltmtaates eoamotitlen and reeuUs ia bly^r prloag. We have been trylay to lacreaao production without afttaoh apparent succeae, hlit: if we eaa reduce coasnmption it should have the esam desired effect. There Is little daayer teat aucb a aaevea*aat weald ba oarrlad ter anaayh te do aay real dasanya te bualasM, If it oaa briny prices te a a»ore taaaanable baefa and pat an sad to tha oaarmena atoek aad other dtvideafip teat are daily befa^ declarad by CMporatioBa, tee effect ahonld be

The most popuiar are the early turnip varietiea ao oalied becauae of their shape. There are two type* of thle kind, one ohlongr and the other round and flattened. Still a third type ta Ibnc suid slender. Scarlet Elul>e< erimeon alobe. ecarlet turnip, white tip, Frente breakfast and others are tbe popular varietlee. Speed has been the main development in the little early radiehes. They have been developed until eome varieties under favorable conditions furnish radishes in twenty daya twenty-five daye are common now. but four weeke will be

The little early turnip radishes need little attention. They are in the around before tbe weede aet a aood start and ready to eat before they can be overwhelmed, hut cultivation and aood soil helps them miahtlly. However, It is difficult to ao wrona

In the hot day# of summer the early radishes are not a aencral euceeea as they are ept to become hollow and pithy in many eolts, but it is always safe to' take a chanoa The Iona varieties are better suited for the advanced season. The briaht acsrlet color of the radish ts one of its most familiar characteristica but fn the last few eeaeone a pure white radish has achtev^ S eat popularity and Justly. This ta e Icicle radish. It ts an early matures ae the Iona rooted varieties arow. is of hlah quality, betna crisp and tender until It attains iarae slsa where varieties of the Iona red typ# would be hollow and pithy. It makes a short leaf mrowth and may be planted closely. It is a favorite wherever It is tried. If you haven’t met the Icicle radish, try a packet this year. The Bsuriy Lena Scarlet vartetiea ueueily so cataloaued. are fine compsnicta crops. A dish of mixed scarlet and snow white Icicle radishes makes an attractive dish upon the table. The winter radish is makina Its way slowly. These are fine as follow crops for the earlier veaetablea aa they should not be planted until June. They make heavy roots which may be stored in the cellar over winter for slicina in salads or eatina raw. A Japanese radish called Sakurajima and Chinese variety are popular winter types There are also Spanish vaHetles of winter radish. In fact the list of winter radishes has been arowina of late. They are worth plantlna. as the snappy radish slices time when fresh veaetahles are scarce. There was a shortaae of radish seed last year, but American fardenere have come to the reecue ana there is a suffici^t crop this year, the French varieties beina arown tn America for seed.
