UNSHOD CAMELS

Sar. Antonio, Tex. —(UP)— Be

grand idea of Jefferson Davis to
solve the transportation problem
across the vast deserts of Texas,
Arizona and New Mexlrto failed.
Old documents unearthed here
revealed in 1856, Davis, then Sec
retary of War, imported 72 camels
into Texas for use in transporting
cargo over the lonely wastes of
the west.
Only lowly burros were used as
beasts of burden in the desert
and it appeared that the camel,
which is a much faster animal,
would solve the problem.
, The camel did — during the
rainy season. But after several
weeks of work during the arid
summer weather the camels, their
feet tom to shreds by the small
flint rocks, fell to their knees.
These small rocks, it seems,
were peculiar to American des
erts. As the camels could not be
shod they were useless
The entire consignment was

While Hans Andersen's fairly tales

) orations gain the appreciation they
deserve.
1'IUIU UIU2 Vi
I S. Milnor, head of the Grain Sta
bilization corporation, farm board
subsidiary: Since July, the Grain
Stabilization corporation, has sold
105.312.665 bushels and has brought
10,484,181 bushels of new crop
wheat and 27,348.000 bushels for fu
ture delivery. This leaves a net sale
in four months of 67,480 384 bush
els. of which 47,600,000 bushels was
to foreign buyers and 19,980 384 to
domestic buyers. Excluding wheat
sold or traded to China and Brazil
(40,000,000 bushels) on which no
price has been set, the corporation
received an average of 64.7 cents a
bushel, Mr. Milnor told investigat
ing senators. In other words, the
board sold exactly 7,500.000 bushels
on the export markets (the identi
cal figure of the German wheat
transcation) and 19,980.384 to do
mestic buyers, some of which may
or may riot have eventually been
shipped for export. Inasmuch as be
tween June 30 mid November 27,
December wheat at Chicago sold at
or over the 64.7 cents average fig
ure mentioned by Mr. Milnor only
on the days between November 4
and 10 and December wheat closed
at only 501* cents on September 11
(the date of the German transac
tion) such an average price can
apparently have been reached onlv
by forcing northwest millers to pav
a very sharp premium for the
board’s surplus durum wheat sup
plies, the crop in that territory this
year being the shortest in modern
agricultural history.
If Mr. Mllnor’s testimony on the
average price is to be assumed to
be correct, critics of the board may
well refer to their dictionaries for
the definition of the term "farm re
lief,” for which purpose the govern
ment agency was formed. Moreover,
(he Grain Stabilization corporation
head’s statement is a tacit admis
sion of the utter lack of business
acumen of such apparently previ

they lead to discrepancies. Chair
man Stone placed the Grain Stabil

$102,000,000. That figure remained
official for all of two days. Mr
Milnor, who should know, placed it
af $110,000,000. Perhaps, if the Sen

late Hans Andersen to the stand,
he could tell Messers. Stone and

DUST-PROOF CLOSET
In laying a closet floor in a home,
it is best to lay an extra layer of
flooring, making it one thickness
higher than the floor of the out
side room. When the door of the
closet is closed, this extra layer will
keep out dust.
BEAUTIFY HOME GROUNDS
In planting for beauty, combined
with durability, perennials should
be chosen in preference to the an
nuals. Perennials are the plants
which live from year to year In the
garden, most of them increasing in
size of clump and amount of bloom.
To call a flower “old fashioned"
is to honor it, for that shows it
has stood the test of time. Whole
books have been written about per
ennials; their location, arrangement, ■
and color schemes. Many of these
books seem so complicated that they
almost discourage a beginner. But
one forgets to question location and
arrangement in the beauty and
fragrance. They are most effective j
in front of shrub plantings, for
the colors show especially well j
against a green background. The
rule for arrangement is simple—
try to keep tall growing plants to
the rear of the border, gradually
decreasing in height to dwarfs in
front, so that every plant can be ;
seen. Color arrangements have been
causing much discussion. Tastes dif
fer, but if the color scheme is
pleasing to the owner of the flow
ers, It will not be far wrong. If a
riot of color is wanted, try it; if any
clash unpleasantly they can be
shifted about to more suitable loca
tions. Several plants of a kind to
make a large splash of color are i
more effective than a s'malT dot of
color from ope or two plants. But
most of vfe have to begin with one •
5t Vivo plants of a kind, or with
seed, and while waiting for them
to increase to amounts to permit
mass planting, one can be on the
alert for pleasing combinations.
Soil that will produce vegetables
will raise perennials. If the soil is
heavy clay, it should be spaded
deeply and some sand and well
rooted manure spaded into it. If
it is too loose and sandy, spade in
some manure and some heavier
soil- Since perennials remain in
one location for a long time they
welcome additions of plant food.
The best is well rotted manure.
Cultivation is very necessary, for
the plants cannot do their best
when in competition with weeds
and one cannot enjoy flowers that
are surrounded by weeds. Continu
ous bloom may be had in the
perennial border, but not in the en
tire border, for the whole season
with careful selection of plants.
kfomr nlento an^h a a HHontol
poppy, will become dormant during
the late summer, leaving an empty
place in the border. These places
can be filled with a favorite an
nual. Last year, says a farmer’s
wife, I used scarlet zinnias as fill
era but found them too tall and
erect for my purpose, and this year
I plan to try the more spreading
gray-green African daisy, which has
white flowers and will fit into any
color combination. I 1 am going to
list a few of the perennials which
may be depended upon for bloom
In each part of the season. The
earliest spring blooms are from the
fall planted bulbs, and include cro
cus, scillas, hyacinths, narcissus,
Jonquils, and tulips. These are
especially effective when planted in
masses, and as they leave a bare
place during the summer, some an
nual filler should be provided. Most
of! the early April bloom Is on
dwarf plants, one of the best of
which Is phlox subulata, or moss
pink. It is a sheet of color either
white, pink or lavender. Its leaves
are almost evergreen, and it likes a
sunny, well drained spot. Alyssum
saxatile is also a creeper, with cloth
of gold bloom- It is rather hard to
transplant and It is well to plant
seed of It where the plants are to
remain. It Is a splendid rock gar
den subject. Everyone knows lily*
of-the-valley with its fragrant white
bells. It enjoys cool shade and mul
tiplies rapidly. The Pumlla, or
dwarf Iris, In purples, yellow, or sky
blue grows about 8 inches high.
They are very hardy, give a wealth
of bloom, and increase rapidly.
They make neat edgings. The pur
ple one Is lovely massed In front of
golden narcissus. The various vio
lets begin to bloom in April, and are
a welcome addition to any garden
and for cut flowers. They are very
hardy and increase rapidly by self
seeding. The native timber phlox,
blue, is of easiest culture, and every
one should have some in the bor
der. It combines beautifully with
pink tulips. It Is so fragrant and
such a good cut flower. It is a good
ground cover for lily beds The fern

FARM LIFT
Comparing the different methods
employed by fanners In handling
their holdings a field man of the
dairy extension service says: Re
cently we visited a dairy farmer
who owns 80 acres of land and
does all his own work. We arrived
at his farm just as he was getting
ready to milk. The usual eight-gal
lon milk can stood la the middle
of the driveway covered with a
clean piece of white cloth- The bam
was neat, well lighted, ventilated—
a real cow home. The cows, calves,
and young stock showed indication
of good care. They were not only
well fed but they were kept clean.
The man and his wife both milked
and they took pride In their work.
We couldn't help but reflect upon
their life and compare It with
those who live In the big cities
where there Is a rush from early

these bacteria leave this nitrogen In

the result of there being a greater
