I'd like to paint you a picture.
Had my hand the cunning to draw,
To express the beauties of nature
And show you things as they are.
'Twould not be Of the Catskill Mountains,
But scene in old New England,
In the State I love the best
I'd have for a background mountain,
Leaning hard against the sky,
And part way down its side i nave
A highway running by.
And close by the roadside standing,
I'd paint you a white farm house,
With cherry trees in the orchard,
And Naples nesting close.
With the cows coming home from the
And the children running behind.
With the farmer coming in from his LABOR
to his wife
So good and kind.
Beyond at the foot of the mountain,
I'd paint a beautiful lake,
With the fields and the woods that lie be-
tween =.
What woderful picture 'twould make!
But it must be changing picture
To half express. you know,
The beauties of this country scene,
/ AS the seasons come and go.
From the soft pale greens of the spring
time,
with the cherry trees dressed in white.
Through the deepening shades of sum-
mertime
With the sunshine warm and bright
And the warm bright tints Of autumn,
That brighten and deepen and glow
To the still cold white of wintertime,
With the hills all wrapped in snow.

I4',On 3 Whole
Wheat Meal a

for those who want to con-
serve food and also con-
serve strength and health.
But be sure it is the whole
wheat prepared in a diges-
tible form. Shredded Wheat
Biscuit is 100 per cent. whole
wheat-nothing wasted,
nothing thrown away. Fiji
teen years ago Shredded
Wheat was eaten only as a
breakfast cereal; now it is
eaten for any meal as a sub
stitute for meat, eggs, or po-
tatoes. Two or three bis
cults with milk or cream
and some fresh fruits make
a nourishing, satisfying meal
at a cost Of a few pennies.

Mark L. Leach of Casco, recently
discovered in a wood back of a very
old cemetery there near the old Bell
:. Hill church built 11S years ago. two
graves, the general appearance of
which. and the rude form of the
sravestones. leads him to the belief
that they may be the graves of Indians.
If not, Mr.. Leach believes that they
are at least the graves Of the very
early pioneers, for in the cemetery,
'rearby the burials date back to 1899.
l. is hardly reasonable. residents think,
to suppose that once the cemetery was
laid out. any burials were made in the
woods outside of it.
Two stones mark each grave, one
at the head and one at the foot, and
these are rounded at the top in a
rough manner and are of the natural
granite rock of that section, I'M
smoothed and undecorated in any
way.
One of the graves is considerably
more than seven feet long and the
other about six inches shorter, and
the townspeople conjecture. though of
CT uISt II dOtS ilOI unnecessarily lOllo"t
that these are the graves of a very
tall man and his wife. almost giants
ir stature, and perhaps Of another age
and race.
At any rate, the graves are out Of
all proportion in length to the graves
ir the cemetery dating from 1899 on
down TO the present day. and since
their discovery some time ago by Mr..
Leach have attracted a great deal Of
attention from all sides.
The old Bell Hill church opposite
this cemetery is in itself very In
teresting object for those who love
old buildings.
II was built in 1898 and has an,
ascent TO the tower, resembling that
Of the Old North church in Boston,
and box seats like those. Of the. Old
South church there.

HOME CANNING OF
FRUITS AND VEGETABLES

Clemson College, S. c., June 20
To successfully can fruits and vege-
tables, all the germs that cause
spelling must be killed, and no
live germs allowed to get to the pro-
duct.
When glass jars are used, the
only other equipment, needed for a
good way of canning the product is
large, fat-bottomed vessel with
cover, for boiling, false bottom OF
net wire or wooden strips being In
the vessel so that the jars can be
lifted out easily.
Fill the jars with the product to
be canned, including any preserva-
tive, as sugar or brine solution; put
the rubber ring in place, screw the
tops on LOOSELY, place the jars
in the boiler, fill the boiler to a depth
of 2 or 8 inches, place cover on and
bring water TO boil Boil tomatoes
10 minutes, then screw the top OF
the jar on tightly and boil 20 min
utes longer. On the second and third
DAYS boil in the same way for ~
minutes.

The kindly old squire was giving a
little treat to the village school-chil-
dren. After tea he stepped on to the
platform ( and announced, with a
beaming smile:
"Now, I'm going to perform Ger
tain actions and you must guess
what proverb they represent. The
boy or girl who succeeds first will re-
ceive a quarter"
That did it. Instantly every eye
was fixed on him.
First of all, the old gentleman lay
down on the platform. Then one man
came forward and tried in vain to lift
him. Two others came to his aid,
and between them they raised the
squire, who was rather portly.
The actions were meant to repre-
sent the motto "Union is strength y
When they had finished, the squire
stepped forward and asked if any
child had solved the puzzle.
At once a grubby hand shot up and

lima the name of Dr.. f. C. l.. Adams
Of Columbia, president of the society
as being not suitable for appoint
ment as chief game warden of the

Thursday transmitted his name to the
governor as being the choice of the

members by the use Of the mail. Gov
ernor Manning today renews his re-
quest that a meeting Of the society
be held in "the regular and usual
way for the purpose of sending a

executive.
Governor Manning's letter to Dr..
Adams follows:
81 have your letter of June 81 en-
closing circular letter sent out by you.
dated June 12, 1917, together with a
blank vote for chief game warden OF
Set. Carolina.
"Your letter of June p transmits
your name as having been selected
by the proceedings which have been
entered into on June 20.
"You will recall that, in my con-
versation with you several days be-.
fore June 20, in which you discussed
the proceedings, you contemplated
taking on June 20, requested you to
call a meeting of the Audubon socle-
ty in the usual and regular way, and
stated to you that no name sent me
as the result of such an irregular
proceeding would be suitable to me,
and I asked you to call regular
meeting for the purpose of making
a recompendation.
In view of my statement to you
and my desire that this matter shall
be determined in a regular and legal
way, | am returning the name of E.
G.. L. Adams as not suitable to me.
81 therefore renew my request that
you call meeting of the Audubon So
ciety and send me the name Of a per-
son recommended by it for the posi-
tion of chief game warden at as early
date as possible
