There is many stiff clay soil that could be made responsive and friable were it given good supply of humus in the shape of barnyard manure or good growth of green stun plowed un- der Especially is there need of such humus in sections of short rainfall where manure does not decompese readily and where there Is tempta- ton te use .....s s. Il for this reason. notwithstanding this, manures should be applied where available even If q longer time is required to convert them into usable soil material
Putnam patriot., 1910-06-03

There is mighty little excuse for any family not having some sort of gar den and failing to enjoy the good things which 1t will afford. This is especially true in sections of abundant rainfall and responsive soil. but holds good even in those sections where IT, rlgation has 10 be resorted to and where the soil may be rocky and gray. ely and apparently good for little. for if there Is any one fact that sticks out in the plant world 1t is how much growing things will do with just iit- tie encouragement. Seeds and garden tools are cheap. as are oil for the pump and saive for sore arms and shoulders. The men about the house should do the work in the garden-the most of ft but if they are minus or are inyalids or lazy iouts garden may be had just the same If only little pains Is taken to put the ground in shape.

This was because OF the drouth

the very late spring.
Many of the reservoirs over the
county are enlarging SO that they may
catch the flood waters and the early

we're sufficient to fill the reservoirs as
the reservoir water was used only for
