TREES ARE PUTTING OUT
AS EVIDENCE OF SPRING
Pear Trees In Americas In
Bloom Now

Elm trees on Americas residence
streets are putting forth their leaves
as token of the approach of spring,
while an occasional hybrid peach
tree is blooming as well. The LeConte
pear trees are budding out and WITH
no set back will be in bloom in the
course of the next week or so. The
growers seem to be of the opinion
that it will be advantageous to have
them bloom now as it will give thu
leaves time to come out and cover the
young fruit as protection from pos
sible frost in March They say that
when the trees bloom very late the
frost either Injuries the blooms or
makes the young pears drop as the
leaves do not come out until some
time after the blooms so they have
no protection.

BALL MAGNATES
ASSEMBLE TODAY
Three Leagues to Gather in
New York

New York, Feb. 1O-Baseball men
from East and West began arriving
here today for the scheduled meetings
of the two major and one of the most
important of the minor leagues which
will be held during the coming week.
Talk of possible important trades al
ready is in the air with the near as
sembling of the magnates and various
managers, among the latter being
Frank Chance, new manager of the
New York Americans, who is reported
to be open to offers for trades involv,
ing new pitching and infield material.
This morning the American League
scheduled meeting began, with the
probability that its session will con-
tinue over to Wednesday or later. AL
so the International League holds its
chedule meeting today. The National
Commission met this afternoon. On
Tuesday the National League mag
mates open their session.
Little byond routine business is ex-
pected to be transacted by the Ameri-
can league club presidents. The Ma
tional League, however, will have be-
fore it the task of amending its con-
stitution to conform with the new ma
tional agreement and is expected to
take up the question of the turning
over to the league of 25 per cent of
the New York clubs profits on the
last worlds series.
This money, in the neighborhood Of
$4,000, is in the hands of the Nation
al Commission which has signified its
willingness to have the disposition OF
the fund left to arbitration, the New
York club having protested the claim
of the league.

HUNTING LICENSES ARE

State Game and Fish Com
miSSiOner'S Order

Americas sportsmen will be interest
ed in knowing that, under ruling just
made by State Game and Fish Com
missioner Mercer all hunting licenses
for the current season will be good
until May list, when the hunting sea
son in Georgia, for every species OF
game ends.
OF course, as is well known, the sea-
son for shooting cartridges and doves
ends March LIST, but other species of
game may be killed until May War
den Mercer is sending out the follow
ing order to all county game wardens.
Although section of the game
law provides that all licenses will ter
inmate on the goth day of February.
the same section also provides that all
licenses are good during the open sea-
son, and as the open season does not
really close until the first day of May
it becomes my duty to reconcile the
conflict
Knowing the history of the incon-
gruities of the law arising from
amendments to section Ia, adopted af-
ter the bill had been prepared by the
committee, and knowing that it was
clearly the intention of the legislature
to provide that one license should be
good for the entire open season, I am
taking the responsibility of advising
and directing you, and all other war
dens of this department, not to pros
ecute for apparents violations of the
clause OF section that provides thai
all license shall terminate on the
ZVJD udN OF feDFuary.
THE licenses now issued by this de
partment for the present season arc
good for hunting cartridges, doves
plovers and wild turkey gobblers unit
the first of March, migratory ducks e.
the Goth day of April and snipe unit
the first day of May and all non-gam,
animals until the opening. of the mex
season or after the legislature hl'
amended the law.

ciate it if you would give this to youl

Can YOU MAKE YOUR
own BREAD and JAM?
and Chilli Easy to
Make

The secret of economical housekeer-
ing lies in the desire and the ability
to understand values and to act on
this knowledge. For each dollar ex-
pended, a full dollars worth should
be obtained.
1t is from attention to details often
Overlooked, that economies result. For
example, let housekeepers consider
whether saving will not be effected
by making as many as possible of the
food supplies at home. Perhaps GER
tain supplies, such as bread, preserves
and so forth, may be bought more
cheaply and satisfactorily. Still tho
matter is worth looking into, and if
there can be saving by home manu-
facture, it certainly is advisable TO
benefit by that saving.
If the housewife is able to make
this or that thing, she is more or less
independent of the product that is to
be bought She can examine intelli-
gently the porduct that is bought and
see if it is up to or below her stand
ard.
Moreover, the housewife who can
herself make some of the family food
supplies takes a special satisfaction in
the rows of jars, glasses and bottles
containing homemade products. She
knows, say, with regard to her bread,
that it is made exactly as she wants
it to be, and she is certain about the
amount of nourishment it containe.
The same is true of other articles
of diet, made by herself, or under
her efficient supervision and if there
Is saving as a result of her efforts,
it is saving in which she can take
satisfaction.
Such a provident housewife knows
too, that her mind can be at rest ii
there is an unexpected guest, for
there is always something good" in
the house. Aonther advantage is
found in the variety which is always
at hand from which to choose in MAX
ing desserts. And best of all, it will
be surprising when the totals are
summed up to find that the outlay has
not been very large.
Jars may be used over and over
again, and the rubber rings, if the
precaution is taken to make them
absolutely sterile, may answer over
again, though it is advisable to use
two of them. instead of one. To avoid
waste, it is best to label the jars
and write the dates when the contents
were prepared, using those made ear
Hest first, vherever possible.
Among the things that may be made
at home, in addition to bread, jelli 3
and preserves, are catsup, chill sauce,
pepper hash, piccatilli and other rel
ishes 1t should not be overlooked,
too, that many things may be made
to suit the family's taste.-Newar&

FARM BEST ASSET
OF UNITED STATES
School Garden Movement
Rapidly Gaining
(By Mrs. w, w Reeder.)

"In many cities the school garden
movement has led to public botanical
gardens, where children study botany
at first hand. The garden movement
has been most rapid in Europe, and
today there are 100000 established
France alone has more than $4,000
and in Russia, as in several other
countries, no school will be accepted
by the state that has not a children )
garden.
In America the movement is of re-
cent origin but gaining rapidly. Sixty
five per cent of exports are products
of the farm, but few children know
anything about farming. One reason
why 80 per cent of the successful bus
mess men of to-day were brought up
on the farm is because of the pro-
ductive industry that was taught in
early childhood. There is no kind Of
training that squares itself of all
around development like agriculture.
"One is taught quick observation
and quick decision, which is of great
value to them throughout their lives
AS an aid to nature study there is
nothing to equal it. 1t can be used to
help in nearly every branch of study
taught in the school room. The prac-
tice is measuring and marking out the
gardens, and in systematically plant
ing gives the child the practical math-
ematics which he so much needs.
Much language can be given in
connection with it; in fact, it can be
correlated with nearly all the other
branches, as it furnishes material for
writing, painting, drawing and
geography Even business can be
taught, as is done in many cities,
where the products of these gardens
are sold and the money taken to the
bank and deposited, and the children
learn the method of depositing and
drawing cheeks.
THE systematic care of tools and
the systematic order of doing things
and the habits of close observation az
CURED by the child will form a trait
which will be invaluable throughout
its life.
Where gardens have been con-
Quoted for many years, it is found
that the boys doing the work are 80
per cent more rapid in mental, moral
and physical development than those
not having gardens. 1t tends to de-
velop the best traits in the children.
and to Great in them love for the
beautiful 1t gives play for all their
motor activities, and shows that re-
sudt follows causes.
THE gardens are especially valuab ie
to girls, particularly those in cities,
as they do not have the same liberties
of the streets and public amusements
as have boys, and are in the open air
and sunshine all too little for strong
physical development"
