THE COUNTRY HOME
BY MRS. w. H. FELTON,

the 21st of December In midwin-
ter.
l am writing at this moment dur
ing the longest day in the year, and
surely it is long day for those who
rise at daybreak and are not asleep
when dark comes-on this long June
day.
Astronomers tell us that the vic1s-
STUDIES of summer and winter are
caused by the earth's motion around
the sun; and when the earth's dis
lance from the sun is greater we
have short days and long nights ana
vice versa Since the world begap-
this movement has continued. Whirl-
ing through space this old earth
obeys the Hand that started 1t, and
it always performs as if 1t was
bound by cables to it's wonted track
although it seems to be going over
the route single-handed and alone.
When the saints in Heaven lean over
it's battlements and watch these roll
ing spheres-each in it's own orbit
and with illemitable spaces wherein
to circulate freely; it will be shown
that the Hand that made them was
Divine"
This summer heat must come to
make the seed terminate, and the
plants grow The promise of the
Lord is sure-there will be seedt1me
and harvest tlme-so long as Tie
earth endures.
When we gaze up into the sky
after sunset-and see the countless
stars in the armament, and know
that they are like the planet on
which we live, the Omnipotence OF
the creator of both Heaven ana
earth. will dawn upon even our own
little finite minds. And God in
His Heaven-will make it right for
orr world

Destroying weevils in Stored Grain
J. B. c., Ball Ground, Ca
writes: Please give me a for
mula for keeping weevils out
of shelled corn, and in what
proportion to use the liquid.
Granary weevils may be kept out
of corn through the use Of carbon
used at the rate of pounds OF
the liquid for every 1000 cubic
feet Of space to be treated. where
the temperature is approximately
70 degrees Fahrenheit. At times. IL
may be necessary to use this mate
rial at the rate of s POUNDS per
1000 cubic feet of space.
The containers in which the corn
is placed should be made as tight
as possible. The liquid should then
be poured out in shallow dishes or
pans to facilitate evaporation. Place
liquid on top of the grain. This
material. being heavier than air,
will sink down through the grain
and destroy the weevils. After the
carbon bisulphide has been dis
tributed in. the pans the contain
tarpaulin. 1t is difficult to treat
grain successfully which is stored
In a loose crib or bin. Sometimes
where the bin is deep it is neces-
sary to put pipes down through
the mass of grain down to within
the bin. The treatment should pro
coed for at least IL to Is hours
or as we often say. over night. It
is important to remember that the
grain should be treated again in
the course of a few days to de-
stroy weevils which may hatch out
after the treatment has been CIV
Carbon bisulphide will not injure

Money Not So Scarce
In Monroe County

JULIETTE, Ca, June 25.-Recent
statements of the banks of Monroe
county show that money is not a
scare article in this county. Sums
on deposit in the various banks re-
veal that the citizens of the county
have nearly a million dollars to
their credit, the total being 1854, 157.
That the citizens of the country
are not bankrupt is shown by COM
parison of the deposits this month
with the deposits as shown by the
statements for June last year. The
deposits for June that year were
about $2,2O1,139, a difference in "a
vor Of 1920 amounting to $246,983.
This indicates that there is only ~
per cent less money in the county
than one year ago.

am a girl of sixteen summers and
thought I was in love with a boy Of
eighteen. However, my parents
greatly objected to my going with
him. However, we were together
whenever we got chance. We plan
ned to run away when we were older,
but as time passed on we drifted
|apart and through little misunder-
standing and jealousy on his part [
stopped having anything to do with
him. He was a real nice boy and
treated me like a perfect gentleman.
Did I do right by not talking to him
any more? Although he could not
go with me he sacrificed his good
times and was true to me and did
not go with other girls, but it dawn
ed upon me that I did not really
down in my heart love him like he
love and have for a long time loved
another who is past twenty. I love
him better than my own life and he
says he loves me that much and more,
too. Unfortunately he has living
wife, but says he will leave her for
me later. He says no matter what
happens he will always love me and
he is very jealous of me and asks me
not to go with any boys and l don't.
No one knows Of my friendship with
this fellow, as we think it wisest not
to have it known. What would you
advice me to do? Whether to be
true to the man I really love or go
with the boys and have a good time.

Yours is the same old story
a single girl in her teens-in love
with married man. In the first
place this man deceived and lied
to you. He knew he had a wife.
He also knew he married her of
his Gown free will and if he
has grown tired Of her and
claims she doesn't love him-do
not let him make a "foop' of you,
also. You should not, have any
thing more to do with him. And
now that you know he is mar
ried man, you must know that he
can never belong to you except in
an Illicit sort of way. But
mans wife has the first right,
the law recognizes and upholds
that right. Do not let him
tell you differently. Until he
has gotten a divorce and has
proven that he loves you by act
ing in the only honorable way be-
fitting a gentleman, do not have
anything further to do with him.

The Home Garden

1t is not too early to begin to plan
the garden, both fruit and vegetable,
for the coming season. The first thing
to do is to plan what fruits and vege-
tables are to be grown and to have
plants and seeds arranged for in good
time. 1t is we'll to have these matters
looked after so that no time will be
lost in getting the garden started.
Probably the first work to actually
be done outside is to get the hotbed
ready. Any repairs needed should be
made early.
Scatter a good coating of well-rotted
stable manure over the garden after
the trash has been burned and as early
as possible plow Or spade the manure
under The aim should be to get the
garden started as early as weather
conditions will permit.
Resolve to have better garden
than last year. Plan for it while the
weather is unsuitable for outside work.
