tARLY TOMATO PUNTS
MAY BE GROWN INDOORS
Start tomatoes indoors ^Ix or eight weeks before you wl.sh to set .4hcm In the fleld. It is not diflii ull to them in the fleld. It Is not difflcult to start the plants If you have a sunny window in a warm room. The'e.ssen- tlats are a box al>out three inches dc'tp and OOBTenient length and breadth, hav¬ ing holes bored In the bottom, or spaces between the bottom boards for drain¬ age; the boxes are filled with rather light, loose soil. The soli should not be too fertile aa strong stocky plant.<! are desired and not large but weak ones, such as come from forced growth.
Plant the seeds al>out a quarter of an loch deep In rows two Inches apart, starting about an Inch from the side of the box. Water thoroughly after plant¬ ing, but let the water fall lightly to i^oid washing out tho seeds.
As aoon aa thc plants have their sec. ond pair of leaves and beforo they be¬ gin to crowd, thin them to stand two inches apart in the row, Thc plants taken out may be set In other boxe.-i, flower pots, strawberry baskets or some other receptacle. Transplanting more than once before setting In the fleld makes better and .stockier plant.

Washington. Apgil IS.—"Figures dbn't lie. bnt they can b« so arranged and' risen fasti- quoted with relation to other facts that the inivremra drawn from them Is whol¬ ly false," says the Republican I'ublic liy Asaodation, through Its President, i Hon. Jonattmn Bourne, Jr^ "A caae in point is thc argument of those who ad- j vacate govemment ownership of tht | railroads In comparing pre-war mil sta | tlstlcs under private ownership with | war statistics ubder government opera- j tlon. For imrtanfee, it la stated by them ¦ that In 1917 the private operators ex- ! pended $«»0,4S7,«0« for maintenance of j equipment, while In 1919 the Oovorn- | ment es operator spent $1,215,275,748 same purpose, an Increaae of seventy-four per cent. For maintenance of way the private owners in 1917 .spent $445,391,825, and In 1919 thc Govern- : ment expended, $772,518,«76, an in- j crea.se of «cventy-thre(<i,^er cent.
'•From those' flguie.s one di-aws the ¦ conclusion that under Coverninent | ownership far more attention is paid j to the condition of equipment and road¬ bed, which, if it were true, would be weighty argument In favor ot a return to Federal control. Hut when we re member that the dollar of 1919 was worth only about half tho value of the 1917 dollar wc reach ^uito a different conclusion. Stated in term.s of work done rather than in dullurs spent it would be seen that fho Oovernment fell far short of llie private' owners in keep¬ ing up the rolling stock and rails.
"Still another fallacy is the deduction that we arc likely to draw from a com¬ parison of the income of the roads in 1917 and now. In i-ound numbers, lhey earned $1,000,000,000 in the year before the Government took them over. Their gress income now is about -7,000,000,000. One public-ownership paper remark,-*.
