Keep the Garden Working During July

Keep the Garden Working During July
 Don't get discouraged because of the warm weather during July or let the garden loaf. Make special effort to keep it going this summer. 1t will pay. Remember you will get out of a garden just about what you put into it. If showers come, get in the garden as soon as possible afterWard and stir the surface of the soil and thus help it to retain the moisture. Lima beans, snap beans, tomatoes, cucumbers, squashes, etc, should be planted this month to take the place of those which were planted earlier. With tin cans as scarce as they are we should dry as many of the vegetables as we possibly can and save the tin cans for the per ishable vegetables such as tomatoes or asparagus. If you live near a small stream it would be a good idea to have a small garden spot on the banks of the stream where you can irrigate it. This would doubtless insure your crop during the summer. A garden calen- dar which will tell you what to plant, when to plant, and how to plant can be secured by writing to the Extention Division of the University of Arkansas at Fayetteville.

in the bogs and soil which prevents
reptiles from existing, but, however
that may be, Ptolemy refers to the
island in these words: "Hibernia, that
happy land where no snake or veno-
nous thing can be found" A certain
western multimillionaire whose wife
had a special horror of the reptiles
had a whole shipload OF turf brought
out and put in deep trench around
his house and garden in California so
as to prevent the entrance of snakes.
Clay pipes are smoked in ireland,
of course, but they are not at all so
typical as the briar root variety, and
as for the tall hats, they unfortunately
have virtually vanished out of the
land, the modern Irishman being gen.
orally found in cloth cap if he is
young, a wide-brimmed soft black
felt if he is old, and even in the dim
and distant past the hats were not
green-unless through old age.
| really hate to destroy all your
fond delusions, but, alas! the exigen-
cies OF truth demand it. 1t reminds
me OF funny thing which happened
some years ago. There is an indus
try outside Dublin for the manufac-
ture OF rosaries from cows horns.
Some are left the original Whitley gray
and brown, some are dyed red or
green and | happened to have the
green. When visiting-a convent in
Nebraska | showed these beads to
one OF the sisters, explaining that
they were made from Irish cows
horn. An incredulous look of blank
astonishment came over, her face as
she exclaimed, but Irish cows
haven't really got green horns
Now having cleared the ground of
almost all the objects which are to be
found in the stores, what can we use
for genuine Irish Patrick's day
party3 Shamroeks, harps and green
flags are quite admissible, but you
know the original flag was not green
at all, but a lovely greenish turquoise
blue with golden sunburst. The
green only came into existence in the
eighteenth century and so, if you
want to have something quite original
and really truly Irish, why not use
these two colors for your table?
In the center of the table put
small fiat mirror to represent the
thousands OF little lakes which dot the
land, and border it around with sham

Some Real Irish Table Decorations for St. Potricks Doy

ST. Patrick's day again! Are you
going to have a party? And il so.
what kind OF party is it to be? Are
you going to be quite happy and con-
ventional, utterly undisturbed by
any ray OF originality, and have a
table spotted all over with green
pigs, green tall hats, clay pipes, green
shamrocks and green snakesi II So
blessings on you, but please don't ask
me to be there. This time of year
would make any real Irish man OF
woman furious il he or she did no,
happen to have a sense Of humor
which enables its fortunate posses
sor to grin and pass by on the other
side OF the road.
OF course, most of the so-called
ornaments and novelties are just an
evidence OF pitiable ignorance and
abominable bad taste, and so those
who use them are more to be pitied
than blamed. However, | am not out
to shout, who dare tread on the
tail OF my coati" today, so we don't
get on to that sore subject, but will
rather take the merely foolish trihes
and try to enlighten those who sit i'll

To begin with, the pigs-poor little
grunters--we owe them a lot. Un-
fortunately, they do not possess as

Willing to Take Insurance OF

FLEEs AT WoMANys OFFER

There is a limit to human kind
ness. You can ask too u:h of an
ouliging bachelor.
Herman Auerbach, merchandise
broker in the Omaha National Bank
building, is the obliging bachelor,
though he would b. the first TO resent
the insinultion.
Auerbach is assisting Leo Rosen-
thai in securing ads for the program
of the Jewish war re.ief ball, large
affair planned for Thursday evening,
March 29, at the Auditorium. When
he approached a we'll known insur-
ance MAJ and asked for an ad for

spone.

business on automobile row.
He met the same luck. Find me a
prospect and I'll take an ad," said
the auto vendor.
I'm the prospect. You can sell
me a car" and the deal was closed.

head cook, probably to Charles,
duke Of Bolton, tells in 1928, of car
rots, asparagus, spinach, barberries,
marmalade, blanc-manges, creams,
biscuits, sweet cakes AMI chocolate
tarts.
A few years later, "Thc Complete

remarks: "The treatise is divided into
ten parts: Cookery contains above all

dings above fifty, pastry above forty,
cakes forty, creams and jellies above
forty, preserving an hundred, made
wines forty, cordial waters and pow

Though, for the reasons stated at
the beginning OF this article, we can
not make practical use of old recipes
or receipts" as they styled them we
may care to look over few OF them.

Old Cookery Books.

We are very apt to take cookery for
granted and seldom picture to our
selves culinary conditions different
from ours. Recently | came Upon a
book by w. c. Hazlitt bearing the
above title-a book which gives inter-
esting material about English cookery
in the Middle Ages and slightly
later. Mr.. Hazlitt traces the begin
nings OF the uses OF different food
stuffs and gives some examples OF
early recipes. The recipes were sure
ly intended for a more lavish age
than ours-a quart of cream and a
pound of butter for use in single
recipe are not uncommon. Besides
being extravagant, they are indefinite,
huge and require much labor OF prepa-
ration.
As early as the eleventh century
there is mention OF meats, various
kinds OF fish and bread; in the flf-
teenth century are to be found al
nd-milk, rice, cruel, fish broth or
soup, sort OF fricasee of fowl, pies,
pastries, tarts, apple juice, a dish
called "jussell,' made of eggs and
grated bread, with seasoning of sage
and saffron. and "froise," which cor
responds to our omelet.
The days menus in wealthy Tudor
household do not seem either varied
or particularly appetizing. "The noon
tide breakfast provided for the Percy
establishment was OF very modest
character; my lord and my lady had,
for example, a loaf of bread, two
manchets Qoaves of finer bread), a
quart Of beer and one Of wine, two
pieces OF salt fish and six baked her
rings. My Lord Percy and Master
Thomas Percy had half a loaf
of household bread, manchet,
pottle OF beer. dish of but
ter, piece of salt fish and
dish of sprats, or three white her
rings, and the nursery breakfast for
my Lady Margaret and Master In
gram Percy was much the same
The above menus were for fish days;
on flesh days, the FISH was replaced
with half chine Of mutton or boiled
beef, or boiled mutton breasts"
In 1909 there is mention Of straw
berries and cream served as g feast; in
1920, the potato is urged as part OF
the diet; in 1914 oysters were eaten
with wine at breakfast; in 1854, direc-
tions were printed for frying mush-
rooms, which were gaining favor; and
in 1878, pies, pastes and sweet pas
try seem to be used rather largely.

gan to be felt. THE nursery rhyme
