how to make homemade Christmas cards.
During my roamings in many parts of tho
world was fortunate enough to make a wons
derful collection Of snapshots. took most Of
them myself, the others I bought at the souve-
mir stores. From these made several lovely
Christmas cards. The first one that I am
going to tell you how to make was inspired
by a sight which saw while holidaying in q
fishing village in the North of Scotland.
"One morning on my way for early swir1s
I stopped thrilled by the sheer beauty Of the
scene in front of me. Through pearly mist
cleaned the first golden and crimson glory OF
dawn. A fleet of about so fishing boats with
Tapping sails of brown was slowly and majesti4
cally gliding out Of the small harbor headed
for the open sea. Lined along the sea wall
were all the families of the fishermen, waving

'"The finished card was a most realistic pic

Miss Brown. The members cheered with delight
at the novelty of this idea presented to them
by their teacher.

COUNTY PLANNING
HORTICULTURAL MEETINGS

(. Three 2-day horticultural schools
are being planned by the county, to
be held the week of January 20-25
inclusive. These meetings probably
will start with the Kennewicls meet
ing, Monday and Tuesday, January
20 and 81; White Bluffs and Hanford
school % and 23rd, and the Pros
ser school, January 24th and 18th.
These schools are being planned
jointly by the County Extension
Service and the Horticultural In
spection Service Of the county. The
following tentative program has been
arranged: one half day on cooling
moth; one half day on orchard and
other horticultural crop fertilization;
and the other half days given to scale
and other pest control, pruning,
thinning, and other horticultural
problems.
A request has been made for Mr..
Anthony Spuler who has the last
two years been doing research work
in the lower Wenatchee district on
codling moth control, and, who in
our Judgment, presented one Of the
best papers at the State Horticultural
meeting held in Yakima early in De-
cember. Mr.. Spuler will give the
same discussion at these schools as
given at the Yakima session.
1t is planned to change the type
of meeting this year to one Of the
conference type. AS much time as
possible will be given to discussion
of the topics by growers present and
definite plans are being made that
this type of discussion shall occupy
from one half to two thirds or even
three fourths of the time given to
the discussion Of any topic. This was
the type Of meeting held at Prosser
when the County Council was organ
lied and which those present felt
was very much worth while.
The question of one day meet
ing in the Benton City and Richland
communities is being put up to a
number of the leading growers IN
each community, through circular
letter. If enough replies are received
from these, one day meetings viii
be held in these two communities the
fore part of the week following the
two day meetings.
