Setting Out Plants Started in Rotbed.
small amount of space if grouped to-
gether The taller growing crops, such
as pole beans, tomatoes trained to
stakes, and sweet corn, should be
planted at one side of the garden
where they will not shade the smaller
crops.
1t is generally conceded that the
rows should run north and south; how
ever, it is more important to arrange
the rows for convenience of cultivation
than for exposure to the sunshine.
Due consideration should be given
to both companion and succession crop
ping. By companion cropping, the plan
of planting two or more crops together
and removing those that mature first
is followed. By successive cropping
one crop follows another, keeping the
land fully occupied all the time. Thus,
early cabbage may be followed by eel
cry or late tomatoes; early corn or
early Irish potatoes may be followed
by turnips, late beans, late beets, or
late cabbage. The arrangement of
crops, however, depends somewhat up
on the locality and length of the sea-
son.
Detailed directions for locating and
planning gardens are contained in free
bulletins of the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture, which will be
sent upon application to the depart
ment

THE FOOTPRINTS

Minnie, or Min, as she was always
called. was only three years old. OF
course she knew there were younger
people than she was, but still, some
how, every one regarded her as very
young. 1t used to hurt her feelings
quite often when people would speak
of her as the baby"
"Pm not baby" she would say.
She had cried once when some, one
had called her a baby, but her brother
told her that people would think they
were right if she did anything like cry.
For someone Knew how very fond ba-
bies were of crying.
Her brother never called her baby.
He called her Min and Sister. And
yet he was much older. he was seven
whole years older, in fact.
No, her brother never called her a
baby, and yet he always looked after
her so that she felt wonderfully safe
when with him. She remembered, very
dimly, the time when she had been on
a sled with a little girl and when the
little girl had been steering carelessly
straight for a tree. Her brother had
seen what was happening and in a
'jiffy," as her mother said, he had
put himself in front Of them and had
stopped the sled.
Every one had said it was very he
roic. Everyone except the brother.
He hadn't said anything, but he had
put his arm around her that evening
before she went to bed and with some
thing very much like a sob in his voice
he said: "Oh, Min, you're my sister"
OF course that was the truth-so
much the truth that it hardly seemed
worth mentioning except that he had
said it in such strange way. She
remembered, too, that he had torn his
clothes-torn them to shredS when he
had saved her For though it had all
happened so quickly, she knew that
much though she never quite
knew what is was that he had done.
She was thinking of this this morning
as she watched the snOwflakes joining
all the other snOwflakes on the ground

A cattle dealer went into postoffice
the other DAY and handed in a tele-

they come out the same at the other

Roup is largely a question of ven

enhOuses seldom contain chickens that

Don't Overlook Debts Owed.

In no case should list of liabilities
bills and accounts owed by the farm
be omitted from the inventory.
Liabilities are an offset to the re-
sources. When all the items with their
valuations have been entered the Work
is finished by summing up the valua-
tions. This Is best done by adding
each page separately and carrying the
totals to the last page where they may
be conveniently added to attain a
igrand total. The liabilities are summed
up in the same MANNER. When the
sum of the liabilities is subtracted
from that of the resources the re-
mainder is the net or present worth.

TO MEET HIGHWAY DEPT.
ON ROAD MATTERS

Friday of this week the Morgan
county commissioners, auditor, and
surveyor expect to go to Columbus
to meet the state highway commits
sioner, with the idea of getting an
agreement on a road building pro-
gram for this county. Some time ago
the commissioners agreed on a $3.50
basis for the construction Of two
miles each on sos (Malta-Glous-
ter;) 354 (New Lexington;) and
354 McConnelsville-Zan by
the hill route. This the state high
way commissioner now refuses to
approve. but insists on closing the
gap of four miles on the New Lexing-
ton road to the Perry county line.
This would take the greater part of
the available road funds for the
county. Even though this road be
completed to the county line there
will still be gap of three miles OF
dirt road in Perry county. The for
mer board of commissioners agreed
on improvements on the Malta-Glous--
ter road from the end of happy hal
low road to Clements cross roads,
Malta township and the present
board does not want to rescind the
action of the former board. 1t is
sincerely hoped that some sort of
practical agreement can be made be-
tween the commissioners and the
state department., whereby our road
building can proceed.

NEW ERA CLUB AND GUESTS
ENJOY HOSPITALITY NIGHT

Monday evening the New Era club
members and their guests enjoyed a
pot-luck supper at the home of Mr..
and Mrs. A. p. Pinkerton in this
way observing hospitality night" as
has been the custom of the club for
several years. There were about
forty present, sickness keeping a
number away. However, it was a
veritable feast of good things and a
flow of soul and spirits, for the
"boiling pot" gave forth every <sav-
ory and sweet thing in the way of
"eats." The guests were grouped
at small tables and truly enjoyed
themselves to the fullest" 1t was
an occasion when there was no
stcolor scheme" no "red hearts,"
nor "valentines," nor ''cupids," nor
.Iighted candles" nor carnations"
nor "poinsettias." The guests, had
nothing to do but to enjoy them
selves, and enjoy themselves they
did. After the feast the company
was favored with two solos sung by
Miss Leasure. Her beautiful So
prano voice was perhaps never lis
tened to with more pleasure than by
this company. Mrs. George Lowell
accompanied her, and after the So
los, Mrs. Lowell played two selec-
tions, her performance on this oc-
casion being as it always is per-
feet delight to the music lovers.
There was no further program, and
all had such a good time that the
fortunate ones who were guests OF
the club limited that the club make
hospitality night semi-annual
rather than an annual event.
