,LLU'I'M LIN'I' IN U'ILA b I S O j n Root Crops. I e, 7 T* T tttt A nrr\ r> I ByiuULtllVSllVlS.. 1 1 I me vegetables incmt:ea unaer mis neaa- g am known as root crop', be&auso their shy roots are the must valuable prt of .8 plants. Turnips, carrot6. beet-root id parsnips are usually included, and ,eoo come next in order to the potato in tint of importance. All these vegetables -e merely improvements from wild plants hick are fairly common in this country. hey are all biennials, that is, in the first >ar they simply grow and store up a sen-e of nutriment in thair fleshy tap ►ots, which in the second season is all ied up in the production of flowers and oos; after that the plant dies. It is ith the first year's growth which we ire deal in cultivating them as vego bles. Soils of an open texture, like a deep mdy loam, grow these crops to perfe-I on, but the soil must be deeply dug and Lanure must be buried deeply. The turnip ?longs to the same family as the cabbage irassica) and should not be grown oti md which has had cabbage or other green 'ops on the previous year. It is a native ild plant, but the improved vegetable >rm was introduced into this country -om Flanders. All parts of the plant can 3 used. Many tons of the tops are sold l London every year as "greens," while is blanched tops which grow out when ae roots are kept in the dark are sonie- imes used as a ffil hsti tllte- for spa-kale, I hich they resemble very much in flavour I hen cooked. Young, well-grown, eucculent turnips lake a delicious vegetable, but to grow rtem successfully it is important that the rowth from the commencement should be pid and unchecked. A warm, moist, most suitable i.o-vj cl -,7 se.-iso--q --i goiiera. nr turrips. and in such seasons few crops re produced with less trouble: but in hot, ry snimmers they are frequently a failure. The w ho hare a wel'-sheltered garden -hich was dug and mnnured in the utumn, may make a small sowing now as -K)n as the soil can be brought into a. fit ondifion by pricking it over with a fork nd breaking it down as finely possible; fterwards treading it down lightly with be feet and making the surface smooth nd even with a rake. Draw the drills ne foot apart and an inch deep with a oe, sow evenly and thinly along the rows tie seed of such varieties as Early Milan r Snowball, and cover by pulling fine soil irer with the back of the rake. The seed- ?n". should be partially thinned as soon s they hV5 made ? rough leaf. Two. 'minings shonld. ba.made, finally le?vmg ?p plants to dand about F;x inches apart ™ i the rows. Each alternate nlant should e drawn first as soon as they become sable, which will give those left a chance > develop. For those plots are in the open eld il would be better to defer sowing ntil the end of March or early April. The rincipal afciumn and winter crop should I' e sown about the middle or end of Juno, tl electing such varieties a.g Red Globe or w king's Gajrden Swede. After sowing and w binning the principal attention required C rill be to keep the hop going regularly be- ween the rows. g: Turnips ara very slibiect to the attacks 6E f a small beetle, called Click Beetle, but P hese may be kept in check by dusting the ows with limo or soot, or spraying with 11 a.raffin emulsion. This is made by adding ° wine-glassful of pamfEn to a bucket of P Lot wnter in which has been dissolved c. .bout 3ozs. of soft soap. The whole is to a te well cnumed up with a syringe before h HiffQ inp- Do not wait for the appearance ?of ft t t- i fl px  'entativ?. 'i The carrot is also a 'na?ve wilding, and s aa be found in t1üs district in the neigh- a wurhocd of HangeBneeh. The culture of he carrot is very similar to that of the n urnip. and the same remarks apply here ° is to the preparation of the land and c Irills. A <5mall sowing may be made In r tfarch of the Early Horn varieties, but he main crop is generally sown about the 1 niddle of April. If the soil is not ven, [eep the Short Horn varieties will succeed >est, but if deep and light, then the Inter- n nl-diate section will give the best return. > Carrot seed should not be sown thickly, t md to obviate this it is a good plan to nix it with a small quantity of sand. Im- nediate'y the seedlings have made a kocond leaf they should thinned, but ¡his should not be carried too far, as the mall roots the size of your finger may l e ) Irawn and used early for souns, stews, ;tc.. leaving those left plenty of time and oom to develop fully. Beet-root is an exceedingly valuable < winter vegetable, and., from the amount tf 'Ugar which it contains, is highly nutri- ( ious. It is much ussd as a srdad in eon- r uncHon with celery. Its cultivation is 1 rery similaT to the carrot and turnip. ] rhe rniind or turnip-rooted varieties do j best on shallow or gravelly soil,?, while the f ong- va^jetie? are only suitable for deep, j (veil-tilled soils. An early crop may be ] obtained bv making a psnnll sowing early] n April of the Imriroved Globe types, but -I- p mn,in crop, should not be sown until the ;nd of the month, or early in May. At- ] Mention must be paid to thinning and keep- ing the ground well hoed. Salt is very beneficial to beet-roots and carrots, and should be applied twice during thp season it the rate of 1 oz. to three gallons of ( water. The parsnip is deservedly a very popular vegetable with cottagers and allotment- holders. It may be grown on almost any soil, but the best is a deep light loam which has been vrell manured the pre- vious year, and deeply dug during the autumn. As ti-ti parsnip requires a long season of growth. seeds should be sown at once. The g-rounds rhould bo prepared as advised for turnips, and drills should lJOe drawn a foot apart and one and a half inches deep. The seed should be sown in patches of three or four every nine or twelve inche?. The seedlings should be thinned a? OOn as they are lar?p PTiou?h, and left about a foot apart. The only ether attention necessary will be to keep the PiOil well stirred between the rows, as tn the cape of other crops described. The best varietv to grow is Tender and True, wtile The Student and Hollow Crown can also be recommended.

LOCAL LICENSES. h .——— ——— t Interesting Facts From Chiei I Constable's Report. < < Tnteredtino- far-.t«',pel^tnrLff, to licensinir in ] Swansea are oontained in the annual re- ] )ort for 1916 which the Chief Constable Captain Alfred Thomas) has just issued. 1 rhere are 299 licensed premises in the] rough, comprising 230 alehouses, 29 beer- houses, and 2 refreshment houses, averag- .ng one on licensa for every 439.32 per- ionsof the population (1911 census). In j 1903 ther3 were 402 licenses, a decrease of r 103. In addition there are 18 "off" beer iconges, and 20 grocers' licenses. Last year 15 licensed victuallers were < proceeded against for alleged offences < jnder the licensing laws, 12 of whom j were convicted. These included three ] charges of permitting drunkenness on ioenscti premises and selling drink to Irunken jiorsons, 11 offences against clos- ing regulations, three for the unlicensed ;ale of <lr;nk, and 18 other offences. [Iharo'e. nf simnle drunkenness were urged 1 against 227 perqois, 182 beig convict, and 220 wo e charged with drunkenness with aggra.ah' ns, 201 œmg convicted. The monthly analysis of the dnnkE'n ness returns show that March was the worst in this respect, 40 convictions be- ing obtained January, April and August tied with 38 each: February came nest with 35; September, 34; May, 32; Novem- ber, 31; October, 30; July, 27; December, 22: and June, 18. The periods during which drunken per- sons were arrested provides interesting figures. On Saturdays 171 cases occurred, 93 between 9 p.m. and midnight, 48 be- I tween 6 p.m. and 9 p.m., nil between 6 I a.m. and noon, 15 between 3 p.m. and fi p.m., 4 between noon and 3 p.m.. 3 be- tween 3 a.m. and G a.m., nd 8 between midnight a?d 3 a.m. The 17 c?&ea en Sun- days occurred thus:—3 between 9 p.m. and midnight, 5 between 6 p.m. and 9 p.m., 6 between midnight and 3 a.m., and 1 each during the other periods. Mondays pro- vided 71 casss as follows: 39. 20, 5, 6, and 1 respectively. Tuesdays, 45 cases: 25, 9, 6, 2, 3. Wednesdays, 53 cases: 26, 12, 7, 3, I 5. Thursdays, li casss: 19, 12, 8, 1, 4.

(i ?'Co?!r?e?c!?g on M 0 4% fi b 0WING to the present high cost of producing a daily picture paper, it jtlr tJ — has bee fotJnd necessary to raise the price of "THE DAILY h MIRROR" to One Penny. The new charge will commence on Mcnda! next. B "THE DAILY MIRROR" had the aHernative of increasing its price os- tjj reducing the high standard of excellence to which it has been brought by a B years of organisation, and as the result of vast expenditure. The I attar a ? course was not thought to be in the nat??a! ?terest? or the t?te?csi of its I; ? j J a readers.  E The adequate illustration of the war day by day is possible only ustder cor- BS tain conditions. The production of "THE DADLY MIRROR" as it is I¡ j, B now familiar to readers in all parts of the world, requircs:- ° Ii j j A special and costly paper. j b a A special ink. • ?B Years of organisation and great » 1~ expenditure in securing and repro- expenditure in securing and repro- ducing photographs,, t ? Keeping an army of photographers ?JJJ in all oarts of the world. u- t B A photograph may cost ?100. It may cost ?1,000. TH E DAILY I ? ? MIRROR has frequently paid these prices. 8t has spared no p$ms or c B expenditure to maintain its reputation as the world's 1E,d¡ng picture paper. J ?" jj This policy, although it involves expenditure which now makes the Prduc. B tion of a great picture paper like THE DAILY MIRROR at a ?d. ?- ??B possible, has been adopted in preference to one which would have resM?ed K B in the cheapening of paper and the unsatisfactory reproductions of the j B photographs. The substitution of ordinary news paper for the specie paper J B used for THE DAILY MIRROR would have led to much d?appo?t- J ?B ment, at a period when, at the war's climax, it was above all important to s B present photographs printed in a manner worthy of the great deeds they « ? will immortaHse. B ?? DAILY MIRROR will th?efoye be Ma?ta?ed at its ?se?t ?gh I)  standard of achievement, and all its features will be retained. When con-  S ditions are normal the price will revert to one half-penny, butforthep?eseKt j M it must necessarily be continued at  tt The Proprietors are determined that in no single respect wH' the high quality I ? jj of any of the features of "THE DAILY MIRROR" undergo depreciation.
