Deposit Bank as a director. Mr..
2COwherd, while quite young man,
took a position of prominence in the
affairs of his county. A question of
voting road tax for Hart county
came up for settlement and he threw
himself into the fight for the tax,
vvrote for the papers, made speeches
and helped to win a victory for his
side, and had the satisfaction of see
ing the county build so miles of
turnpike in two years. AS a special
recognition of his services, the first
section of pike constructed in his
county was from his house to the
county seat.
Not many years ago. Mr.. Cowherd

Suburban home and stock farm of
Geo. Y. Green. Re came at the psy-

Then came the big project of or

man to put it through. He was
made the president and it was a
wise choice. He has fully justified
expectations and the first fair was

SERVES A DOUBLE PURPOSE
Cultivation Of Garden Reduces Cost OF
Living and Helps to Eeautify
the City.

There Is no good reason why the
occupant OF small lot in city or town
should complain about the high cost
of living in the summer time, II he is
willing to endure sore muscles for a
brief period and to undertake perhaps
unaccustomed labor with spade and
rake.
Every back yard on which the sun
shines with reasonable warmth can be
made to produce fresh vegetables
enough to supply the average family
in abundance and variety not Bur
passed by the menus of expensive ho-
tells.
Every food requirement can be met
with vegetables grown in the back gar.
den. 1t Is indeed difficult TO find the
soil or location which will not produce
good crops if proper skill and care be
used in fertilizng and preparing the
soil and in choosing the seed.
Statistics have proved that the high
cost of living is not due to increased
expense in producing food, but that
the big proportion of the high prices
goes to the middlemen. Every owner
of a garden is independent of the mid
. dleman. No time may be lost by the
man who wants to try gardening In
preparing the ground and sowing the
seed.
School gardens, for some years a
feature of education In smaller towns,
have at last taken root in New York
Even in the heart OF crowded Man
haitian 1t has been found possible tc
turn bit of the school yard into a
garden and there to let the children
grow flowers and vegetables. In some
schools each class has it's plot, in
others there was enough room TO
provide a plot for each child but
this, except In the rural outskirts, is
rare In one school, where it was
impossible to raise plants from the
earth, a goodly part OF the cement
paved playground was given over 10
boxes which afforded home for
growing plants. There Is a large So
ciety, called the School Garden as
sociation. OF which the president is
J Van Evrie Fitzpatrick. principal of p.

Farming is far advanced for

do not remember spring when
farming was as far advanced as
now. The winter has been open
and mild, and we have had a fair.
ly good spring, and the farmers,
profiting by experience, have
made good use of their time. For
the past three years they see
their mistake in late planting, so
this year they are going to plant
early and get advantage of the

that their crops can withstand
the dry weather that comes later.

NE of the most interesting details
of the frocks that are ready for
- the woman of fashion to carry
south when she journeys in search of
warmer suns is the use Of black lace
with white. Deep frilIs of the lace are
used to edge elbow sleeves and bands of
it are used on skirts and bodices. The
use Of black lace at the elbows appeals
to the woman who breads big bills from
the cleaner, for a white frock with black
lace at the elbows will look fresh much
longer than one with white arm frills-
which are the first part Of the frock to
look soiled and crumpled.
Black and white seem to be in favor
with southern travellers. They are shown
together on shoes as well as on frocks
Some of the new white canvas shoes have
black Jet buckles, of varying degrees of
elaborateneSs.
White taffeta frocks are shown in
abundance for the south. A detail of
their trimming is a box-pleated fold of
the silk around the bottom of the skirt
1t is folded after the fashion OF a neck
ruche. with narrow box pleats almost
tapping. The fold, of course, is of white
taffeta like the frock.

sometimes 1t takes the form of a wreath
Of flowers. The flowers used in the
wreaths are small, often little silk roses
or peoples
One Of the new hats Is fine. cream
colored straw, with q somewhat droop-
ing brfm. Many Of the brims on these
first straw hats droop somewhat. So
although the brims are not wide. they
will protect the eyes from the glare of
the sun in a most welcome fashion. The
cream-colored hat in question is trimmed
with a narrow binding Of brown velvet
about the edge and about the crown there
is band Of brown velvet ribbon-about
two inches wide. This velvet ribbon Is
crossed at one side and the two ends are
fastened at the edge Of the brim with
two little punches, each containing three
light brown silk roses Two other punches
Of three roses are fastened to the velvet
band about four inches apart on the
other side Of the crown.
A good many of the small hats show
brims covered with fr!lls of net, gathered
or pleated into a ribbon that Is fastened
about the crown. Sometimes the crown
is covered with puff or net, sometimes
the straw is left uncovered. Sometimes.
too, the frill Of net is edged with ribbon.

Cold Days in the Nursery.

THERE are charming fot-water bot
ties for babies Some of them are In
the shape Of rabbits and kittens and
some are in the shape of dolls. These
are all useful and are quite properly a
part of a baby's outfit But when a
baby's feet are cold it is far better to
rub them gently until they are warm and
then to wrap them in a little blanket
made especially for the purpose of keep
ing it's feet warm, than to depend on a
hot-water bottle.
If the baby maps on porch or veranda
and has no regular out-of-door bed to
sleep in, big wooden box can be put on
four strong, easily running casters. paint
ed on the outside. planed smooth and
enameled white on the inside, fitted with
a hair mattress. and used for an out-of-
door bed A net should be fastened firm
ly across the top, by means of four small
rings pulled over four pegs at the cor
ners of the box.
One mother who dreaded Group always
used to rub her children's chests and
Threats with pure sweet oil whenever they
seemed chilly or hoarse. She would then
tuck them into warm beds in rooms full
Of fresh air. They never had croup-and
it is only fair to think her preventive
treatment had something to do with this
fact.
When small children come in the house
with damp feet rub the feet with alco-
hol to prevent colds and sore throats
The friction which accompanies the alco-
hol is as beneficial as the alcohol in
arousing the circulation.
Carpets have no place in the nursery.
But, on the other hand. children should
not be allowed to sit on the cold floor.
Small rugs can be used. The idea adopt
ed by Nine. Montessori-that of letting
the child spread his toys on rug to
play with-might be tried with good re-
suits in the winter. If the child had a
playrug, on which he was allowed to
spread toys. he would soon get In the
habit OF laying this whenever he wanted
to sit on the floor Low tables and COM
Portable, short-legged chairs are also use
full in keeping the child from the floor
Cushions covered with cretonne and
stuffed with hair are good for the child to
sit on while he plays or reads.

with little fine salt after a warm bath
and cool spray or sponge and then dry

WATCH is NO LONGER

white ribbon sautoir, fitted with metal
or jewel slides to hang about the
neck. Is likely to remain popular, for
1t fs practical and becoming. Like the
cord. this may be long or short, so that
the watch may hang loose or else be
tucked into the belt.
Wrist watches are made, now. in
many varieties. There is the little
which black velvet may be run and
then ciamped firmly about the arm.
There Is the watch in the bracelet of
links of gold or silver and the watch
in the bracelet which is solid band
of metal or metal decorated with stones.
There Is the watch in the metal bracelet
that stretches and contracts SO that it
may be pulled on over the hand instead
of clamped shut.
Some of the newest wrist watches are
are long and narrow and the bracelet
is almost as wide as the watch, so that
the bulge where the bracelet comes is
hardly noticeable. The square ones
are put in wide bracelets.
-
The watch in the handbag shows as
many varieties as that in the bracelet.
There is the one that is fastened in the
front of the leather or silk or velvet
bag. There is the one that is fastened
in the strap of the bag that slips over
the arm. There is the watch in the
long silk purse, and in the fiat gold or
silver cardcase. There is also the
watch In the fur handbag. And, akin
to this, is the watch that is fastened
Fon the mum.
This is a good day to ransack an

all old watches that are in good con-
