COST OF LIVING BEING TAKEN
UP WITH VIM

The garden meeting last week at
Lorain, Ohio, was a "5O-50" compost
ton, as many ladies as men attended
this meeting The garden meeting
Monday evening in Celina was com
posed of men, though l doubt very
much il the prosecutor has any i'll
feeling toward the ladies clubs of
the town, Dy not having them repre-
sented az this meeting.
The ladies' clubs should help in
this movement the same as they are
doing in other towns
In some of the towns of Ohio the
ladies clubs have taken it upon
themselves to beautify the church
yards of the town.
The object of this garden move
ment is Co make the front yards of
the homes beautiful and to make the
backyards and the vacant lots pro-
duce food.
To do this it is thought best to try
bome-schUol gardening,
This plan is recommended by the
government and where it has been
tried it is a fair success.
The plan rs to make survey of
the town and locate the vacant lots,
the homes of the children where gar
dening can be done and is desirable.
Then b. the help of the teachers of
the schools and the parents, the
children will make drawings and plan
their gardens. A small record book
will be used by each child in which
he or shY viii draw, plan and keep a
record OF his garden for the year.
If possible each child and their
garden will be visited by the super
visor to assist in planning and ar
ranging of plants in reference to en-
yironment and companion planting.
If there is not sufficient space at
home for gardens, the nearest vacant
lot avilable may be rented by the
children
The association will plow, harrow |
and furnish seed, if desired, for va
cant lots and charge the boy small
rental &c be paid when the crop is /,
being marketed.
Seeds will be furnished for the |
home gardens, if desired, to be paid |
for during marketing season.
During the garden season the su-
Iervisor will visit the garden to en-
courage and assist the children in the
culture of the plant and in looking
after the insects, diseases and mar
keting of the vegetables should the
child grow more than is needed for

Some Things for the young prospec-
tive gardener to consider:
Clean up the backyard.
2.-Provida drainage where need
ed.
3.-Select crops that will give, so
far as possible continuous use of the
ground and a continuous supply of
vegetables from early spring to late
fall.
4.-Secure good seed. This is very
important
5.-Use good stable manure and
plenty of it.
6.-Make d good seed bed by dig
ging deeply and by a vigorous use of
the hoe and rake.
Plant in long straight rows.
S.-To lleea down the weeds and
thin out surplus plants,
9.-Mantain a loose soil mulch by
frequent use of the hoe and rake.
Then watch for insects and diseases.
10.-If John does not grow his
vegetables ne must buy them from
George; then John has the vegetables
and Geo has the money; but if John
grows the vegetables he has both the
vegetables and the money.

Our Champion Johnson

The United States Senate has
heard the clarion speech or Sen
ator Edwin S. johnson from South
Dakota, delivered on the 26th OF
February last, setting forth the
tyranny and graft rule Of the In
dian office. Heretofore, Congress
has been so far disilusioned of the
hypocrisy of the Indian office as to
stilfen its back against the pleas it
has heard that the American In
dian is fast being eXteTminated by
the Indian office. Senator John
son has now come forth boldly and
fearlessIy told Congress what the
true state of affairs is. He has
voiced the sentiments of the Indian
in no uncertain way and has
proved to the Senate of the United
States that Cato Sells and his staff
are undermining the Indian in
every way,
Let Congress ponder long and
we'll over his plea for the red skin
and clean out the bureau at once
with legislation that will tend to
our welfare. Remember his words,
Mr.. congressman: is it possible
that department of our Govern
ment has gotten down so deep in
the mire? DO we use the power
of government to destroy every
thing in it's way, even in its sup
preston Of those who are crying
for bread 20

RUMORS AND THREATS.

We have heard rumors time and
again since the commencement of
our paper that the Indian Office
was out for our scalp and would
get US sooner or later. 1t is rum
ored that we will be sued for libel
for telling the truth and champ
ioning our welfare and we'll be
imprisoned for the same reason.
Glad tidings such as these are
most cheerful. 1t seems that the
truth hurts. Yet, threats such as
these leave no impression on our
alligator hide. Well stay by you,
brother Injun, till the COWS come
home. Well fight for You" Ilber-
ty from tho bondage of the slavery
the Indian Bureau has fastened to
you, with the same measure of
patriotism that will march us to
the trenches to fight for the stars
and stripes. Liberty is the cause
in both instances. We are in the
right-that's enough. Fort Peck
