think before we become too much pulled
up over the prosperity and greatness Of

down in cold, dispassionate figures con-
tinue. The bulletin tells us that every

The Old Gardener Says

That garden makers are often
bothered by sparrows, which
tear the pea vines to pieces when
small. The birds are said TO be
looking for plant lice, but in any
event they do much damage. One
way 10 circumyent them Is 10
cover the rows of peas with mos
quito cloth held up in the middle
by stakes. Another plan is 10
dust the vines thoroughly with
tobacco dust. which can be
bought AT any seed store and
which the sparrows, in common
with most garden pests, heartily
detest.
