must help the sick. Those who
have enough and to spare must
help those who have not.
An ounce of good cheer goes far
Their than a pound of commisera.

MAKE HOMES ATTRACTIVE

Suitable paintings are necessary to
unite the parts of a farmstead into a
pleasing, homelike whole. Trees are
used for windbreaks, as frames for the
buildings or a background for them,
and to give shade. Shrubs are needed
in abundance to hide partially the
foundation lines of buildings, support
their corners, give reasons for turns
in drives or walks, and to screen un-
slightly objects. Native trees and
shrubs and those known by trial to
to use.
