The Covington leader. (Covington, Tenn.) 18??-current, 1895-05-31

Rev. j. NJ. Northrop gave an enter
tainment at the rectory last Friday night
in honor of the sewing club Several
Young ladies outside the club were also
invited and there were quite number of
Young ladies present. The evening was
happy one and a good time was reported.
Conversation, music of various kinds, ard
sherbet and cream was the program of the
evening.
For the benefit of our gardeners, we
give the following recipe for keeping i'm
seets of of vegetables, which has often
been tried and always found to be good;
when any vegetable appears you SOW or
plant dust it at once with hot ashes, new
sIaked lime or dry dust of the roads. Do
this thoroughly in the mornings when all
is wet with dew. If this is kept up, even
if apparently not needed, no insects can
get start"
