YOUR CHILD Boys Settle Own Problems; Hands Off Policy Is Wise

BY OLIVE ROBERTS BARTON “IX/CRS. BROWN, I have come to IVX see you about Roger. He and Jay Horner are making my life wretched these days.” “I know,” nodded Robert’s mother. “I know all about it. If you have trouble in school, what do you think I’m having at home? What can I do?” “It's a case of plain jealousy,” said Miss Ayers. “Both of them are very smart, both excel in sports, both are born leaders. But neither of them will give in an inch to the other. “They have all the boys divided into two camps and I spend my days trying to make peace.” ‘Have you been to see Mrs. Horner?” The Separation Theory “Yes, I have just come from there. She couldn’t help, either. She is like you. She says it worries her, but she can do nothing.” “I was thinking that perhaps you wouldn't mind our separating the boys. Mr. Corey, the principal, suggested it. We could put one of them in the room ahead. Roger for instance. There is the same grade there. Then they would see less of each other. I believe that if they had different interests they soon would be the best of friends.” Mrs. Brown shook her head. “Perhaps. but it won't work. Not only would it give Jay the feeling that he had been unfairly treated but Roger soon would be matching his wits and his muscles against the ringleader in the new room. And I think that to put Jay ahead would amount to the same thing.” Showdown is Needed • “Sometime,” sighed Miss Ayers, “I wish they could have a real showdown. One of them is bound to win. one always is stronger than the other. Every man meets his master, they say, no matter who he is.” “Some day,” added Mrs. Brown, “they may have a stand-up knockdown fight, and that would settle it. I wouldn’t mind Roger being licked, but I should also be proud if he won! I’m with you on that. I want it settled. “Bus you don’t approve of outside interference?” “No, I don’t. Boys are like men. They have to settle affairs of this kind among themselves.” Then It's Settled “It is coming spring. They are getting up a ball team. One has to be captain. There will be more war about that. I suppose another boy will have to be chosen.” “Very well then. That is up to them. too. When they find that stubbornness defeats its own ends,' they may learn that it pays to yield sometimes.” Roger came in then. “Jay’s the captain of our team.” he shouted. “I got sick of all the fussing, so 1 told them to make him captain. And. mind you. when I did that he just insisted on me being it. So we drew lots and he won.” The two ladies looked at each other. “We’ve been worrying about you and Jay,” his mother said. “What! Us! Goodnight, we know what we’re doing! Mom,

give me some cookies, will you? I'm. going over to Jay’s house now. And we’re going to the movies tonight.” There are times in a boy’s life, or a girl’s, too, when all we can do is to play audience. Like angels we must fear to tread. Roger gave the right answer. They have to settle it. If we step in. they resent it. No one would grow up or develop character if outsiders did all his deciding. One of the hardest lessons mothers have to learn is this very matter of hands off.

Asa substitute for stable or barnlot manure, the gardener can use smaller quantities of the specially prepared dried manures in bags containing 100 pounds each, which are sold by fertilizer dealers. These special manures should be supplemented by commercial fertilizers, and by working the remains of crops and all available organic matter into the soil to keep up the supply of humus. Humus is the soil ingredient that holds moisture during dry weather. It is also the part that furnishes most of the nitrogen for the growing plants. Without humus the soil is dead ! and likely to be hard and lumpy. A large number of elements are required in the soil to build plants, j some of them in very small quanti- ' ties, but nature supplies most of these in sufficient quantity, ex-' cept nitrogen, phosphorus and potash, and sometimes calcium or lime. Protect the Manure Manure contains these latter elements in varying quantities, but in a readily available form, due to the fact that they are in combination with the organic matter or humus of the manure. Where manure is exposed to weather and leached by rains, it j loses most of its potash and some of its phosphorus and nitrogen, but may retain most of its organic matter. The best plan is to protect the manure from leaching and compost it under cover before applying it to the garden. Poultry and sheep manures are high in nitrogen content, and make excellent garden fertilizers when ' supplemented with chemical fer- i tilizers that supply phosphorus and potash. When you buy fertilizers, the formula will be found printed on the bags. Perhaps the formula may read: Nitrogen, 5 per cent; phosphoric acid or phosphorus, 10 per cent, and potash, 6 per cent. Depends on Soil That is a rather high-grade fertilizer. The quantity of fertilizer i to apply will depend on how good, j or how poor, your soil is, and on I the crops you are growing. Much depends on how the fer- j tilizer is used. Some gardeners pre- j fer to spread the fertilizer and work ' it into the soil before crops are planted. Others prefer to apply part in advance of planting and use the remainder for side dressings while the crops are growing. Either may be right it all dep nds upon the crops and the character of the soil. On heavy soils it may be best to apply all the fertilizer in advance of planting, but on the light sandy soils, where the fertilizers are likely to leach away during heavy rains or irriga-! tion it may prove better to apply j most of the fertilizers as side dressings. NEXT—Planting early vegetables.
