ONLY BULBS produced in the United States and the British empire are available for planting in gardens of this country this fall. Yet under the pressure of necessity & remarkable variety is being offered by the dealers, and by reducing quantities planted, spring garden pictures may be provided in much the normal manner without greatly increased expense. Especial care should be taken in planting the precious bulbs, to see that they have every chance of success, and play their full part in beautifying the garden. How deep should bulbs be planted? _ In general, about four times the diameter of the bulb.

If the ground in which the bulbs are planted has been newly spaded, and. is quite loose, the depths should be increased an inch or so; to allow for settling, and because of the increased effect of frost heaving on newly turned soil. Also, late planted bulbs, which have no opportunity to make roots before the soil freezes, may be set a little deeper, to protect them from frost action.

We, the Women— Wife Learned Something of Husband's Job

By RUTH MILLET ALL THROUGH the depression years the responsibility for supporting the family rested on her shoulders. Her husband found temporary jobs, but they were only temporary— . and it was on her pay check that * the family depended for food and sheltex and all the other neeessities of life. She didn't kick and she didn't . expect her husband or children to treat her like a star boarder because she was the bread - winner of the family. She just worked hard at her job, and took no chances of

Ruth Millett

losing it. She couldn’t afford to take chances.

But now her husband has steady

employment, and she still has her job, and the family can afford some of the small luxuries they went without for years. And more important, there is a place in the new budget for savings, something they hadn’t been able to manage for years. .

All of a sudden the woman’s job

has become fun, since her need to hold on to it is no longer desperate, and since it can provide her now with some of the little extras of living.

» SHE'S LIKE a new woman

today. She says it is as though a great weight had been lifted off her shoulders—even though she is still holding down the same two jobs —the office job and the job of running a household.

In her words, “The economizing

wasn’t the hard part when I had the only job in the family. The hard part was having most of the responsibility on my shoulders. That was a drag.”

But this woman, happy as she is

that her job is now not the vital one, sees some good in her expe-

JANE JORDA

DEAR JANE JORDAN—I am

small baby. My husband works nights and does not get home until

morning which leaves me alone

wouldn't mind that because I realize that it means our livelihood, but I cannot sleep when I am alone. I stay up until my husband comes and do my work at night. This proves fatal to my nerves. I

don’t see a day go by but what I

believe comes from the lack of sufficient rest. I try to sleep. I lie down but always get up after an hour or so, scared to death of some little noise I heard, or I doze off and have a bad dream, waking up in a cold sweat. I even have tried leaving the lights on but this,

too, fails,

As a child and growing girl I was afraid of nothing and I can’t explain this sudden change that took place about two and one-half years ago. People who have never known this fear think it is an obsession with: me. Is it I would appreciate criticism which would help me.~HOPEFUL

Of Argentine Leader

Times Special WASHINGTON, Oct. 13.—In an

effort to better understand the probe lems of hemispheric relations, the National League of Women Voters is sponsoring a tour of the United States by Senora Ana Rosa S. de Martihez-Guerrero of Buenos Aires, a leader of Argentine women and chairman of the Inter - American Commission of Women. This tour will extend from the first week of October until ‘Christmas. Recently the League underscored

‘|its concern with hemispheric prob

lems by giving wide circulation to a quiz on “The Americas and Defense.” They followed this up by issuing a foreign policy study problem on “Economic Defense of Latin America.” Now, as a concrete way of arousing interest in Inter-Ameri= can affairs, they are sponsoring SM. de Martinez-Guerrero’s visit, She is well known in the United States, having presided at the first meeting of the Inter-American: Commission of Women in Washing= ton for six weeks in 1940. She also spoke for the women of America at: the opening session of the Woman's Centennial Congress in New York. Sra. de Martinez-Guerrero’s ap= pearances in this country under League auspices are peculiarly appropriate., She was founder and

1 until recently president of che Fed-

eration of Argentine Women, which was Inaugurated to jromote a woman suffrage movement in Air- | «entina. She also directed a women’s, division of Accion Argen=tina, a non-political, non-official or= manization begun in 1940 to coms bat Nazi propaganda in Argentina. In this respect, the league of Women Voters was the first great national women’s organization to come out openly for ail-out aid to the democracies and has waged a spirited nation-wide campaign to “Win the Battle of Production” toward that end.

To Stop in Washington Flying from Buenos Aires, Sra. de Martinez - Guerrero was met at her first stop by officers of the Florida League of Woven Voters in Miami. From there she flew to Washington for a week’s stay,

following which she will be the guest of Leagues in metropolitan areas until Christmas. In Novems= ber she will preside at a meeting ommission

of the Inter-American C

of Women in Washington.

DEAR JANE JORDAN-I have a lot of brothers and a younger sister, My 18-year-old brother is president of a club of boys and is always telling me that the boys think I am very cute and would

like to have a date with me, but

thinks I should have dates yet he tells the boys to ask me when I am older. Then he wonders why I don’t have dates. I hope you understand what my problem is. I would like to have dates but mg

brothers think I am too.slow and Neither of these things are true; ALWAYS WAITING.

Answer—Brothers nearly always regard their younger sisters as babies but it is a handicap which most girl overcome quite easily. Brother may cramp your style at present but you'll learn to look out for yourself without his loving care. Don’t be afraid to encourage some of these boys who think you are cute but are discouraged by your brother's constant reference to youn youth. He can’t get away with it forever, you know, for each day adds 24

hours to your age. Put your prdblems in a letter to in th
