thirty-tive miles northeast of Malta.
In speaking of the past produ ctive
season, Mrs. Hales said they had not
attempted any "dry farming" stunts,
but were greatly pleased with what
their garden produced, raising and
maturing nearly every kind of gar
den vegetable. Out of thirty-eight

kin distinguished itself by growing
to be five feet in circumference and
so heavy that two men failed in lift
ing it. The catalpa trees that Mrs.
Hales is experimenting with, grew
very rapidly this first season of their
transplantatlon, and met winter con-
litions in proper shape.
