Cut and Store Potatoes Week Before Planting

Thin Ir thr seventh of a series of articles on vegetable gardening. BY W. R. BEATTIE Bureau of riant Industry, l/nited States Department of Agriculture. POTATOES are one of the garden crops that may be planted quite early, because it takes two or three weeks for the potato plants to appear above ground. Sometimes, due to cold, wet soil and other causes, seed potatoes rot

In the ground. This rotting of the seed can be overcome by cutting the seed potatoes a week or more before they are to be planted and storing them in a room where the temperature is about 70 degrees and with plenty of moisture in the air. This causes a sort of corky layer to form

over the cut surfaces of the seed pieces, and this corky layer protects the seed from rotting in the ground after it is planted. Seed should be spread so that the cut surfaces will not stick to- j gether while they are kept in the warm room. This process also starts the buds I or eyes to growing slightly and the potatoes come up quicker than those that are cut and planted immedi- i ately. In some of the southeastern states the freshly cut seed pieces are attacked by a maggot after planting, ! and this corking over of the cut surfaces before planting likely will prevent such injury. In planting potatoes it generally pays to use fertilizers, and the fertilizers should contain a relatively ; high percentage of potash and should be well mixed with the soil i in the bottom of the furrows. The quantity of fertilizer to use will depend upon the richness of the soil, but growers of early potatoes along the Atlantic coast usu- i ally apply a ton of fairly high-grade fertilizer to the acre. On a small scale this would bo at the rate of about fourteen pounds of fertilizer to each 100 feet of row where the rows are spaced three feet j apart. With the rows thirty inches apart, it would be twelve pounds *o 100 fpet of row. That is a heavy application, nd five to seven pounds to each 100 'eet o' row is more nearly, or perhaps above the average quantity of fertilizer used. If the soil is good, five pounds to 100 feet of row is plenty. It is very important that the fertilizer be well mixed with the coil In the bottom of the row before the seed is planted.

Tomatoes are one of our most important garden crops, but ordinary varieties of tomatoes will not grow on some soils on account of the presence of tomato wilt disease in the soil. Several varieties of wilt-resistant tomatoes such as Marglobe, Break o’ Day, and Pritchard are offered by the seedsmen, and one of these varieties should be planted in home there is any danger of wilt. Cabbage is another crop that suffers from soil-borne diseases, especially the disease known as cabbage yellows. Recently varieties of cabbage have been produced that are almost completely resistant to (he yellows disease, and unless it is certain that the soil is free from yellows, these varities should be planted in home gardens. The Wisconsin Hollander is the main variety of yellows resistant late cabbage, but there are also lesistant strains of the variety known as All Seasons and of Early Jersey Wakefield. Just a word about transplanting plants from the hotbed or coldframe to the garden. If possible, move the plants in the evening and with a good ball of earth about their roots. When you set the plants, pour a pint or more of water about the roots before completely filling the hole, but first firm the soil well about the roots. In the case the sun comes out bright the following morning, it is a good idea to shade the newly set plants by standing a shingle or a small piece of board on the sunny side of each plant.

Russian Movie Depicts a Different Rasputin Malikoff and Barrymore Do Not Agree on Characteristics of Man Who Caused Downfall of Czar. BY WALTER D. HICKMAN TOTALLY different conceptions of the character of Rasputin are revealed in ‘ Rasputin,” made by Russian players partly in Russia and in Germany, and “Rasputin and the Empress.” made in Hollywood. The Russian played movie claims to be based “on authentic documents. correspondence and description of eyewitnesses.” while the Hollywood version is revealed as dramatic theater with great acting on the part of Lionel Barrymore.

The Russian movie is not a' talker, it has sound and a musical background. English titles are used as an index to the meaning of the scenes. To students of Russian history as well as the movies, it is interesting to compare the Rasputins of Nicolai Malikoff of the Moscow Art Theater and of Lionel Barrymore. Barrymore's Rasputin is essentially of the ‘heater while Malikoffs seems to be out of the pages of history. I know that authorities in many books on Rasputin do not j agree upon most points or even a 1 majority. From the standpoint of dramatic acting, judged by my standards of I the theater, “Rasputin and the Empress” is the better acted picture, i better photographed and bettetr theater. The Russians on the other hand ; reveal Rasputin as mad with sex | and whose political power in Russia 5 was used as a club to protect his very life. In the Russian played picture, you meet characters that did figure in the press reports of the career of Rasputin. The czar and lhs empress do not figure so much in the Russian version as in the American. The Russians go the limit in revealing the sex and drunken debaucheries of Rasputin even to the point of the clergy and the court objecting and the czar nearly banishing Rasputing until the empress influenced him to relent. The Russian version even includes in the indictment against Rasputin the cause of suicide among ladies of the court. Both versions agree that Rasputin was the hardest individual in the wcAld to poison and kill. The Russians give you no theater in the death of Rasputin as the Barrymores gave as. MalikofT, when he aliows Rasputin to face death, reveals him as a man who intelligently knows that the czar and his Russia are botn doomed. Malikoff is a creative and powerful actor who goes in for realism instead of theatrical acting. To my way of thinking, this Russian's Rasputin could ha e done everything in real life as he did in the movie. You will notice that none of the Russian scenes are overelaborate. Even the rooms of the czar and the empress look a little drab and oldfashioned. Some of the scenes are jerky and the continuity does not build up to a powerful climax. That, of course, is the Moscow Art Theater idea. The cast of “Rasputin” is as follows: Gregorl Efimovitch Rasputin Nicolai Malikoff The Czarina Diana Karennc Grand Duke Alexander.. ..Max Schrcck Prince Youssopof Jack Trevor A Peasant Alexander Mirsky His Wife Uli Tridenkaja I know you will welcome an opportunity to compare the Russian Rasputin with the American. From a standpoint of theater, sets and acting of the theater, “Rasputin | and The Empress” is an easy win- ! ner. Remember the “Rasputin” now on I view at the Ohio is adult enter - I tainment only. Other theaters today offer: “The | Big Cage” at the Apollo; “Pick Up” on the screen and Keller Sisters | and Lynch on the stage at the Indiana; “Gabriel Over the White House” at the Palace; “Blondie Johnson” at the Circle, and burlesque at the Colonial.

Diving Champion Reveals Her Secret for Losing Pounds

Bj Time* Specie! CORAL GABLES, April 4 Even mermaids have to diet occasionally, according to Georgia Coleman, the champion woman diver of the world, who is in the public eye after announcing her secret marriage to Rufus Gilson recently. *T wanted to tßke off twenty pounds,” she said today, “and I did it in one month by sticking faithfully to a diet. I never felt better than while I was dieting and I have just as much energy now as when I was training for the Olympic games. The diet is a simple one. but a lot of exercise helps it along.” Here is Miss Coleman’s diet, week by week, for the month. First week—Black coffee for breakfast, .and tomato and lettuce salad for both luncheon and dinner. Surplus fat augments the diet, while the stomach is shrinking. Second week—Black coffee and fruit for breakfast, any salad and any drink for luncheon, and soup and lean cold meat for dinner. Third week—Black coffee, fruit

and Melba toast for breakfast, any salad and any drink an t sherbet for luncheon. Soup, one broiled lamb chop, salad, and any drink for dinner. The fourth week is exactly like the third, and at the end of it Miss Coleman had lost an even twenty pounds, she said. “You have to make up your mind to stick to the diet, giving it a 100 per cent chance to do its stuff, but it really will turn •the trick.” PURDUE PROFESSOR TO ADDRESS CLUB John T. Fotos, assistant professor of French at Purdue university, will talk on Eugene Brieut, modern French dramatist at the meeting of the Alliance Francaise Thursday at the Washington. Professor Fotos is a graduate of McGill university at Montreal and has taught French at the University of Chicago. Miss Hilda Cunniff, soprano, will sing a group of French songs.

Your Manners TS it proper for a woman in business to smoke at her desk?—A. M. That is a matter more often decided by her employer, rather than by any rigid rules of etiquet. Few secretaries are allowed to do so. as it gives an office an air of relaxation some clients might not wish. No shop girls or manicurists do so, as their customers might not approve. Women executives make their own rules.
