A mother has been called away,
Her place can ne'er be filled;

And herts are cold and chilled.

When she was called above.
Faithful and true. until the last;
She's gone to her eternal rest,
May loved ones have the strength tC
feel
That 1t was for the best.

The garden is the quickest and best
means of reducing the cost of living.
Present food prices can best be re-
duced by growing a new supply OF
food 1t will take several months to
produce a surplus of many food pro-
ducts such as meat, potatoes and
-four. Furthermore, the effect OF
this surplus on the price which the
consumer has to pay is doubtful. By
planting a garden the consumer car
relieve. the food shortage directly in
a few weeks. He can substitute his
fresh garden vegetables for canned
products and for many of the high
priced staples. The Missouri Col
lege of Agriculture has suggested
that every available foot of land be
planted to some food crop. In this
way the waste places will contribute
to the necessary supply of food. The
earliest garden crops are those which
thrive in cool weather and which are
more or less frost resistant. The
first crops which may be planted are
onions, peas, satisfy, spinich ant
parsnips. Ordinarily these may bt
planted during early March. By the
middle of March lettuce, radishes
parsley and chard may be planted
Succession paintings of lettuce ant
radishes should be made because
both have a short harvesting period
Another group of cool weather crops
includes beets, carrots, caulifoweI
and cabbage. The first two may b,
planted and the last two transplanteC
