FRIDAY, DECEMBER l5, 1922.

A Chicago judge claims that MUIR
ders are eight times more frequent in
the United States than in Canada.
He might have added that murders
are probably fifty times as great in
the United States as in China. AS a
matter Of fact, the United States
ranks right up at the top in the
number Of homicides per capita. Not
very much Of a recommendation for
our Christian civilization, it seems.
Canada, as England, does not deal
very generously with murderers, nor
does China. We are entirely too gen
tie in our punishment of those who
destroy human life. This may not be
the only cause for our unenviable rec
ord in the matter of murders, but it is
our chief factor.

Insects and Winter Flowing

Winter plowing is as much q gar
den problem as it is farm prob
lem, and when done properly it will
add very greatly to the profit Of sue
ceeding crops.
There is no single place on the
farm where insects are so troublesome
or so abundant as in the garden. One
c: the recommendation for insect
control is winter plowing. If the gar
deem is broken up and left rough
through a few hard freezes, millions
or insects will be frozen and Destroy
ed. Not only that, but much weed
seed and other troublesome pests will
be gotten out of the way. AS rule
we think of blowing the garden dur
ing the first three or four warm days
in the springtime. This is too late to
get best results, as already stated.
That is job that should be done in
the fall of the year, except, of course,
in the case of those parts of the gar
den that are in perennial or winter
crops.
Aside from breaking the garden
soil, all rubbish should be clea-ed up
a'ong the fence both on the inside
and on the outside. This is another
step toward insect control.
Any manure that is to be used in
the garden next year should be put
out this fall and permitted to decay
on the sold or in it if put out before
the breaking is done. BY all means
sec that no water stands on the gar
den.
If these precautions are taken now,
Lext spring when the first warm days
come, things will be in mighty fine
shape to start the best garden you
have ever had. And perhaps there is
not single year in history when a
garden will count for more than next
years garden will.
All rubbish and refuse remaining
OF the garden following the crops of
the year should be cleaned off thor
oughly and burned. This will help to
control both disease and insect pests.
Such diseases as melon leaf blight,
black leg of cabbage, and others will
live on through the winter in diseased
plants and refuse if these are not de-
stroyed. This rubbish unless destroy
ed accumulates very ragidply and
sooner or later will make 1t next to
impossible to grow successful garden
crops.

New England Still
Abounds in Game

Boston, Dee. 14.--"Abont tbs
time," as the old farmers alnAnass
used to say, a frequently occurring
paragraph in New England country
newspapers reads somewhat as fol-
lows:
THE annual game supper was held
last night. There was large at
tendance and the hunters provided a
bounteous repast."
Although the wild turkey which
set the style for Thanksgiving din
ners on the occasion of the Pilgrims
first Thanksgiving Day three hun.
dred years ago has disappeared from
New England woods, three centuries
of hunting with firearms hRs far
from exterminated the wild life of
the forest in this section. Even in
the immediate vicinity of Boston,
deer and ruffed grouse are seen oc-
casionally, and squirrels, hare and
foxes are regular inhabitants of su
burban woodland. The pheasant, not
native game rbid but introduced
some years ago, has flourished in
Massachusetts, and southern New
Hampshire. Geese and an abund-
ance Of waterfolw pause on New Eng
land lakes and streams in their mi.
grations.
Only in Maine does the moose per-
sist, but bears, common in that state,
are still found also in the remote
sections of the mountain country in
New Hampshire, Vermont and west
ern Massachusetts,. Wildcats are
shot or trapped in considerable num-
bers every season. In the fur-bear-
ing category racoons, skunks and
muskrats are still plentiful, and in
the wilder districts mink and otter
are not infrequently found. The
wolves are gone; it is only rarely
that a panther is reported, and then
with doubtful authenticity, and the
dam-building beavers now are few.
That the rapidly increasing num-
Der of hunters has not more seriously
depleted the supply of game in New
England is due largely to conserva-
ton measures. For many years all
the states in this section have enforc-
ed as strictly as possible the closed
season provisions of the game laws,
and in recent open seasons the bag
limits on various classes of game
birds and animals have been made
smaller. Licenses also
are required of all hunters, and in
the case of non-residents high fees
are demanded.
The game supper nowadays is Of
ten the sharing by an individual or a
group of hunters of the results of
days sport. But in few villages in
the heart of the woods it takes on a
greater Importance. Teams Of vii
layers, fifty to hundred on a side,
are pitted against each other in a
hunt from daybreak to dark. The
men go into the woods singly, each
TO his favorite hunting ground.
When all have returned at '-Et the
each seasn are cor& &n21s1el
the one having the smalls5 amount
Of game pays all the expenses. Incl
dental to serving an elaborate meal in
which the meat courses range from
squirrel pie to venison steak.

FIFTH, sixth AND
J.H. s. GRADES TO
VIEW ART CRAFTS

Pupils in the fifth and sixth
grades of the public schools and in
Garfield and Dennis Junior High
schools, will visit the exhibit, one
of the most colorful and interest
ing of the year, which is now
hanging in the Public Art gallery.
Visits will be given by these
groups Monday, Feb. 10. Miss
Williams, art supervisor, has an
nounced.
In this exhibit, one of arts and
crafts, we see many decorative
wall hangings, vases and other or
naments, furniture and china,
made in beauty of. line and color.
Many beautiful works of art are
exhibited by Mr.. Herman Sachs,
of Dayton, o. Mr.. Sachs is a
Roumanian. On Wednesday even
ing, when the exhibit opened, Mr..
Sachs showed how batiks were
made. A simple art, it seems, OF
tying and dipping silk in dyes.
But in the hand of the artist who
knows just how to tie the silk to
make it come out in beautiful de-
sign after it has been dipped in
color, and united, and to know how
to mix and combine bright, rich
colors,-the result is beautiful,
indeed.
