Christmas Dinner
In Dixie

In a cerlain story Of Henry James
be tells of being In room Of "beauti
full omissions" and to many dining
tables of today, among both the rich
and poor, the same term could be ap.
piled so tar as food is concerned, but
to the Christmas dinners Of my clear
est recollections 1t would not properly
apply. says Kate Langley Bosher. the
well known author. in the New York
Times.
Ours Was large family, and always
there were guests and relatives to dine
with us In consequence the table was
enlarged to the limit Of Its capacity
and reached from one end OF the din
ing room to the other In the center
was Dowl Of holly whose berries

consequential turkey which had long
been preparing for his fate lay ready
for bis sacrifice. Today two turkeys
seem scandalously unnecessary In the
yesterdays they were not considered so.
On one side Of the holly berries was
Smithfield ham baked TO brown:
ness that was indeed aIltlring; on the
other, round of spiced beef whose
fragrance made waiting difficult. Soup
and fish ON Christmas day were al
ways dispensed with $n#$ =, -,

carving was being done. and when the
latter was sufficiently advanced to- per \.
mit.it was with right good wifi and ap

of celery and cranberries and home
made pickles and crisp corn bread and
vegetables of all sorts and kinds that
thanks were given for another reunit.

and all in the household went merrily

When dessert was served the table
was again laden with Il variety that
now seems prOdigally wasteful of
things called sweet and surely of a

pudding with its burning brandy perk
lily insisted that it be tried first, then
pies Of luscious filling and golden
jelly or perhaps Of rich red, accord

made. Fruits and nuts and raisins
kept the children busy. and when at
last the table was left it was with O
silent prayer from some that penalty

The. average southerner takes them

NEW TREES FOR OLD.
Why Saplings Should Be Planted About
the House.

Why saplings Should Be Planted About
the House.
Aren't there some promising saplings
wasting their good looks in your wood
lot that you can find time to dig and
plant near the house? Have you an
old shade tree that is getting ready to
die or bald spot,in the yard with no
tree at all? Put in little one. advises.
G. B. .Hill in the Farm and Home, and
you'll find it pays. not only in beauty
and sentiment, but in comfort in dog
days and in the stability of your place
If you ever want to sell.
In moving a tree first dig out a cir
Gle as near the size of the crown of
the tree as possible, making sure to get
air the roots: Leave the sod on; It
holds the soil together. Cut all broken
roots off smooth.
In setting have the hole deeper than
the roots will! reach. which insures
them soft place to start. Spread the
roots naturally and sift in rich surface
soil. The tree must be set no deeper
than it stood naturally. This is so i'm.
portant that one person had better
hold the tree up while another shovels.
Water the tree If it is planted in its
growing season, otherwise not. Heap
mound Of dry soil around the base
and keep this stirred to prevent caking
Don't let sod form near the tree at
first. The best time to transplant is
Just before growth starts. though the
fall or late spring will do. Pick
cloudy dav for the work. Prune the
top according to, the amount you cut
off the roots. ~
