undertaking.
Denison ians have been asked to
cut weeds and grasses and place j

of the shortage of cans, people
have been asked not to place the
weeds in them for in case of rain
they rot.
Ai.other step to be taken toward
clearing up the city is the placing
cf oil on all open wells and pools
to eradicate mosquitoes. Those
persons knowing of open walls or
pools of water under basement*
have been asked to call tlicir war.i
chairman.
Mrs. J. S. Shaw, city chairman,
is iu charge of the cleanup cam-
paign. Her ward assisiantn are
Miss Genevieve Sweeney, first
ward; Mrs. E. L. O'Conricll,
«ec«nd ward; Mrs. Burk Thomp-
son, third ward; Mrs. H. B.
ferryman assisted by Mrs. Geo. ]

tive weeks.

warm weather causes the water*
of a small lake to become thickly
populated with a teeming mass of
microscopic plants and animals.
These plants and animals are so
small that with your eyie it would
be impossible to distinguish just
what they are but their numbers
run into astronomical figures. The
small plants that are present are
capable of malcing their own food
just like trees, grasses or any oth-
er higher plants. Herein lies
the secret of why some fish die.
All plants that can manufuctur*
their own food are green. The
green coloring ja caused by a green
substance present in the foiV.i of
pigments which are known as
chlorophyl. The chlorophyl is
able to arrest the sunlight shining
on the plant and transform a
small part of the energy given off
by the sunlight to the substance
filling the body of the plant
(prooplasm). The protoplas%n
can then employ this enemy to
separate the enrbon fr^m the car-
bon dioxide that the plant taJces
from the water and combine
the carbon with particles of water
to form simple sugar, which is the
plant's food. When the carbon
is separated from the carbon diox-
ide. pure oxygen is left over and
is discharged into the water.
"Now everyone knows that wat-
er is composed of hydrogen ana

some H20' being a stock remark, animals die carbon dioxide gas is

lJlant Second Crops to

The Victory gardener has much
In common with the factory man-
ager; both like to get as much from
their production space as possible.
To do this the gardener resorts to
two doubling up arrangements
called succession and companion
plantings.
He knows, for Instance, that rad-
ishes take only a few weeks to ma-
ture, thus leaving a whole row or
more of space for another crop.
In this case, a mixture of radish
and parsley seed can be planted at
the same time, the parsley being
slower, and obliging enough to give
the radishes full sway for the first
few weeks. This is called compan-
ion planting, as both crops grow
together, although one i* hr -est-
ed before the other.
Other companions for raUmhes
are cabbage or peas between the
rows. In this case two rows are
planted In a space for only one,
but as the radishes mature quickly
and are used up, there remains only
one row. with sufficient room for
cabbages or peas. Another sugges-
tion is parn.ips or beets between
rows of spiiuch. The spinach is a
cool-season, fast grower, and li
soon used up.
In the case of succession plant-
ings, the gardener waits until a
quick growing vegetable is harvest-
ed, and then replants with another
crop. Here are a few:
Radishes followed by string
beans.
Early peas followed by turnips,
carrots or beets.
Early beans followed by late car-
rots, or beets.
Spinach followed by sweet corn,
tomatoes or beans.
Young onions from sets followed
by eggplants or peppers.
These companion and succession
plantings are interesting for the
gardener, especially the fellow with
a small amount of space, who can
often grow more vegetables on his
little garden than his neighbor will
do on twice the space.
There are a few exceptions which
should be remembered. Root crops
should not follow root crops, and
the same is true of the leaf crops
Turnips, carrots or beets, for in-
stance, should not follow radishes,
or Swiss chard follow lettuce.
