THURSDAY, APRIL 25, 1946 THE JOURNAL, PLATTSMOUTH. NEBRASKA PAGE SEVEN Green, Leafy Foods Are a "Must" for Home Gardens For family health, the most im portant crops in the home vegetable garden are th greens, which nu tritionists call he "green, leafy, vegetables," and recommend so highly as a source of vitamins. Of these, spin'h is not the chief, since its harvest ends with hot weather. But there are others which bear throughout the summer and produce, for th- space they oc cupy, more food than other crops. Most widely grown are Swiss chard and New Zealand spinach. Chard is an ancient vegetable, probably the first form of beet to be grown for food, while New Zea land spinach is relavely modern, having been discovered as a wild plant in New Zealand, where the natives did not eat i ' It became popular in Britain lung before its vitamin content was known. Its flavor resembles that of spinach. It has large, hard seed, which some have difficulty growing; but grows well if sown in the early spring, as soon as the soil has been prepared. Seeds often live over winter and come up in the spring, and the plant is hardy in spite of a tropical origin. But it is easily overdone; since one plant fills a bushel basket, and when the tips ' of its leaves are cut off for use, new tips grow rapidly, and the har vest continues until late in the fall. Swiss chard should be used when the leaves are young, not over ten " inches in height. Sown with the earliest crops, it will be ready to cut in a month, and new leaves will grow to replace those that are cut. Chard has a distinctive flavor which many prefer to spinach, and children usually lake it better. The mustard family provides several varieties of greens. One known as Tendergreen will produce edible leaves in 21 days from sow ing, and if the roots are left un disturbed will produce eight or nine crops in the season. All the mus tards are quick growing, and are much esteemed in the southern states. Garden sorrel is a hardy pererv nial, which will live over winter and ICE I.IEGH1 WITH THE dietrim PL At. ism Safelvl SulcklTl Easllyl Unoui Jangerous ctiemicals sr eaneoiOB treatoneo Brand oe eas-to-take zao- 25-Day Supply SCHRE1NER DRUG Farmers- YOUR ORDERS for STANDARD HYBRID SEED CORN Are Ready Come In Today IF YOU HAVEN'T ORDERED WE HAVE SEED CORN ON HAND BROODER Coal or PLENTY OF GARDEN SEED SWATEK HARDWARE Help Help You Thousands of baby chicks were lost in 1945 from Coccidiosis, White Diarrhea and other diseases.

Sown in June, the plants set out in rows two feet apart, they will pro duce leaves which stand freezing, and are improved in flavor by that experience. Collards are a mem ber of the cabbage family which do not make heads, but leaves with cabbage flavor. All these varieties of greens are rich in minerals and vitamins, and are valuable in the diet. It is well for the home gardener to plant a small quantity of several kinds so that the family does not grow tired of greens. All produce a surprising quantity of food on small spa Legal Notices A.

When lOllie wants to take Joel to an other not for better shooting, he leaves Debby reluctantly. X TART had come over from the other blind, and for the first time in her life Debby felt awk ward and self-conscious with Bart "VVyman. And of course he had to ask right away, "How do you like Joel?" She kept her head turned away from him, so he couldn't see her face, and her fists were working inside her mittens. "He's nice," she said. Bart nodded. "Good guy. Good hearted guy. I know. I lived with him for two years." She squinted out at the Meadow. It was hard to see much through the scud that swept across the bay. She had watched them go, the bow of their boat pointing diagonally to windward, creeping half-crab-wise toward the Meadow under Elbe's short, monotonously rhyth mic strokes. Then, dimly, she had seen them walking about, Ellie setting the decoys and Joel bailing the sink-box. And after a few min utes they had disappeared below the level of the grass, and it was hard to remember just where in the long unbroken line of meadow they were. "Don't see that they're getting any more shooting then we are," said Bart. It wasn't long, though, before they began to hear shooting from out on the Meadow. In the high wind the reports of the shots were surprisingly faint, a distant, muf fled booming, but they came more and more often, and through the mist Debby could see Joel or Ellie running along the edge of the the Seal of Cass County, Nebras- Jlli &TL96' braska.

INC. marsh, or Ellie out in the boat, racing to pick up a bird before the tide or wind carried it away. "If that keeps up," said Bart, "they'll have their limits before noon." Debby shook her head. "The tide will be driving them out of there any time now." "That's right; so it will." ' TLLIE was out in the boat again, down to the west of the Mea dow. "He's going to have a tough row back against that wind," Bart said. Debby nodded, watching Ellie, and suddenly there was a swish of wings over their heads and three ducks that had come from Debby's side swung low over the blind. The two of them shot to gether, at the tails of the disap pearing birds, and again only one of the three dropped. "Gosh, I'm sorry." Debby blew the smoke out of her barrel. "I was watchin' Ellie there." Bart climbed out of the blind. "If they'd come from my side, I'd have missed them the same way," he said cheerfully. "I was watch ing them too." Now that the tide was in, he had to use the boat to pick up the dead bird, and on his way in he reset one string of the decoys, towing it in nearer shore. When he got back to the beach, Debby was standing there waiting for him. "Look," she said, smiling in credulously, "Ellie's lost an oar or something." Bart turned and stared. "Well, I'll be damned. Ellie, of all peo ple!" As they watched, he drifted rap idly out into the middle of the bay. Soon he was far to the west of the Meadow, a faint gray spot in the mist.

"Glad you've got two pairs of oars," she said. TJART already had the boat turned around. Debby, sitting in the forward rower's seat, slipped her jacket off and picked up the other oars. Bart rowed like Ellie did and it was easy to keep stroke with him. Suddenly Debby stopped rowing. "Bart!" He didn't break the rhythmic of his stroking. "Yeah?" "How about Joel?" He looked at her over his shoul der, scowling, and she was leaning on her oars. "We got to go to the Meadow first," she said. "Look, it'll take us an hour to get back there from where Ellie's boat is, against that wind. And the tide will be j covering the Meadow long before that." Bart continued to go through the motions of rowing, without putting any power into it. "By God," he said after a moment, "I guess you're right." He pointed the bow up to wind ward of the Meadow, and Debby could see he was pulling harder, and he was grunting as he applied the pressure to each stroke. When they got to the Meadow Joel had the decoys in the sack, and he heaved them into the bow. The water was already up near his boot-tops. Bart nosed the boat into the grass. "We'll wade around the Meadow and tow the boat," he said, and there was urgency in his voice. "Be quicker than rowing." "That's what I figured," Debby said. She grabbed a handful of marsh grass, holding the boat in to shore. Bart was clambering out over the side. "Then I'll drop you and Joel over on the mainland." "Drop Joel," said Debby. "I'm going back with you." She climbed out after him. "No sense in that," Bart said. He was up at the bow, towing the boat with the anchor-line, and she was wading between the boat and the shore, holding it off with hc-r hand. "I'll have to give Ellie that pair of oars, so you'd just be dead weight coming back and it's com ing back that counts."
