Garden and Orchard Notes.

Many a garden in South Carolina
has grown up in weeds. Get it to
growing again. Plow it or spade it,
manure it if the ground is not as
rich as cream and plant vegetables
for fall and winter use. Later on,
about the first of September, SOW
a row of some early variety of head
lettuce and radishes and a planting
of snap beans. About the middle Of
September plant winter onions and
spinach. Keep the garden going.
In South Carolina when you say
greens you mean turnip tops. The
domestic science folks tell US that
we should use spinach for greens
because they contain more iron
than any other salad vegetables.
Spinach is an especially good addit-
ion to the diet of children. Now is
the time to plant it for early fall
use. Sow a row or two by the gar
den. the seed rather thin in the row.
the rows "a inches apart. If the
rains are s~easonable and the soil as
rich as it should be with proper hoe
ing it will be ready for use in Octo-
Der. A sowing about the middle OF
September will supply greens
throughout the winter and early
spring for spinach is about as hardy
as salad onions.
Keep strawberries clean. If al
lowed to become infested with
weeds, the plants will become weak
ened through competition and the
quality, size, and number of berries
produced next spring will be re
duced. Vigorous strawberry plants
set now and kept free Of weeds until
frost will give a good yield of extra
large berries next spring.
1t is not too early to order fruit

TEN SUGGESTIONS
FOR MILK CONSUMERS
Keep Milk Clean. Covered and Cold,

Keep Milk Clean. Covered and Cold.
Clemson College.-Milk consumers
who would get greatest satisfaction
and benefit from money spent for
milk or for the keeping of home dali
ny COWS should give heed to the fol-
lowing ten suggestions, says J. P. La
Master, Chief of the Dairy Division.
l.. Buy only the best milk obtain
able. 1t is the cheapest in the long
run.
2. Consult the health department
before selecting your milk dealer.
8. Buy only bottled milk if posi-
BILE. Dipped milk is often dirty and
deficient in ream.
a. Take milk into the house as
soon as it is delivered, and place it
in the refrigerator Immediately.
Bacteria increase rapidly in milk
which stands in the sun or warns
up, and such milk will u quickly.
S. Keep milk in the original bottle
in the refrigerator until the moment
of serving. Milk which has been pour
ed from the bottle should not be re-
turned to it.
6. Keep the bottle covered with
"a paper cap or an inverted tumbler,
to prevent the entrance of flies and
dust, which may carry dangerous
bacteria into the milk.
7. Keep the refrigerator clean
and sweet by means of proper drain
age and frequent washing with scald-
ing water and sal soda, since milk
quickly absorbs unpleasant odors
and becomes less ~palatable.
8. Wash milk bottles as soon a.
emptied, by rinsing first with luke
warm water and then with hot wa
ter. If there is an infectious dis
EAST in your house, do not return
bottles except with the knowledge of
the health department. and under
conditions which it may prescribe.
9. Return empty bottles prompt
ly and do not use them for anything
except milk. Remember that they
are the property of the dealer and
represent cash.
10. Remember that clean milk,
properly cared for, is one of the best
floods obtainable. 1t is nourishing,
digestible, and usually economical.
