Pettis is over 80 years old and does all
the work herself, even to spading up

barefoot most of the time too. She
has resided in Hampton for nearly
forty years, and is now spryer ana

THE STORY IT COULD TELL.
(lRockford Register)
That big boulder which lies down
in the pasture COULD tell you an in
teresting story if it could only talk
how it was born during some ann Pc
riod of the old worlds history; how 1T
long lay buried deep. subjected to a
pressure uncomfortable; how as the
crust of the earth cooled and the
mountains were formed by the con-
traction it was heaved UP from its bed,
to be later seized by the clutch OF
mighty glacier, slow drifting to the
south. then to be released by the sun
and dropped in your pasture. Gnarly
and scanned, smoothed by the awful
grinding of its long trip. 1t lies there
rated as n nuisance, but nevertheless
with a wonderful story to tell not only
to YOU. but to your progeny ten thous-
and years from now.

If the old saying holds that six weeks
after the golden rod blooms look for

thirty-five days hence. Golden rod

thisbeautiful flower has been noted by
this writer. A half-dozen or more
years ago he read statement that the
plant bloomed first in Canada about
June. and as the season advanced II
continued a triumphal golden march
southwark until it reached Its climax
in the southern states late in October.
The statement confirmed what he saw
in Canada ten years ago the latter part
of June. Along the sides OF the road
section men were engaged In cutting
weeds and the golden rod was Haunting
it's flower to the breeze. Here In Iowa
the blossoms did not appear until
August or later.
