PLANT SPRING VEGETABLES
IN JANUARY

Every household in Florid should
have a home garden. If properly
planned and planted. fruits and vege
tables may be grown almost the year
round. Spring. in Central and North
ern Florida begins in February or
early March, while in Southern Flor.
ida it is springtime all of the winter.
In North and Central Florida 1t is
now time to start seedbeds of toma-
toes, eggplant and peppers to be trans
planted later into the open Irish pota-
toes, English peas, radishes and tur-
nips may also be planted at this time.
In from four to six weeks plant beans,
,cucumbers squashes, cantaloupes and
watermelons.
Gardens should be made long and

that horse-drawn implements may be
used for cultivating. The rows should
be planted from 212 to feet apart
In getting the soil ready to receive
the paintings, an abundance of barn,
yard manure should be used, not for
its fertilzing value alone, but because
it adds humus. making the light sandy
soil more able to hold moisture and
also stimulating the bacterial collec-

fertilizer should ais ODE used, gen.

PITY VERSUS SYMPATHY
(By Ruth Cameron)

Pity, they say. is akin to love.
/ But they say" great many things
some of which. having thought about
instead of repeated parroalike, one
see reason to question, or at least
modify.
Pity may be akin to a certain kind
of love, but is this relative of pity an
erect, outstanding. self respecting re-
ciprocal love?
And is pity itself always such a
rraiseworthy emotion as it is cracked
up to be.
Sympathy stands face to face, looks
you in the world.
T, The man who learns sympathy from
his truggles and his orrows has truly
succeeded no matter what else he
has missed.
Sympathy and Pity are not the Same
Thing
But sympathy and pity are not the
same thing.
| Pity stands on platform and looks
down and says You poor creature"
and perhaps tries to reach down some
measure of alienation.
Sympathy stand face to face, looks
you in the eye and with hearty hand
clasp says, not You por thing" but
Courage, comrade. | too have
known
Pity is akin to patronage.
Poor" is a word with which is
loves to conjure.
And never was such an abused
overworked word. Just as pity is an
Ioverworked emotion.
Why Should One Say "Poor Little
Baby.
poor baby" people say. Why
poor? Because it is helpless? But
think of the inches by which it will be
waited on. Because it has so many
troubles to live through? Yes. bu

many people are there who, having

And then when anyone dies, espe

Don't you think we ought to pit!

were discussing this.
"Why not rather resent the injustic,
