REPAINTING WICKER

Wicker furniture gets dingy- looking
on account Of the dust that collects in
the depressions of the weaving. Then,
too, the paint wears of more quickly
on the high points. To repaint such
furniture, take it out to the garage or
somewhere where you can turn the
hose on it and give it good scrubbing
with soap and water and then hose it
we'll. After it has thoroughly dried
paint it with spray. You will be
surprised how quickly and thoroughly
you can get the paint into every crevice.

WHAT IS 4 GOOD SEED BEDl


Forage crop specialists in the
United States Department of Agri-
culture have said that in the emer-

If a good" seed bed is prepared.
What is good seed bed? How is it
prepared?
For the small seeds OF grasses
and legumes the soil shoEld be firm

complish this, thorough disking to
a depth of about inches Is often
better than plowing. Pliwing is all
right for corn, sOybeans, or any of
the larger seeds. Il is unavoidable
on trashy fields or on sod. But Ii
loosens the soil too much for the
small seeds. Furthermore, plOwing
turns up too many weed seeds ly-
ing dormant in the soil.
Disking followed by narrowing
leaves the soil In fine surface tilth.
An acre can be prepared for plant
ing by disking at about one-third
the cost of plOwing and in approx
mately Ons-third the time. While
definite rules for a seed bed cannot
be laid down for all types of soil, it
is true that land should be
disked and cross disked two or three
lines and rolled with cultiDacker
after seeding. A soil that has a ten
1ency to crust should not be rolled
into a smooth surface.
When heavy corn stalks or corn
Itubble remain on a field after disk

SPECIAL TO THE CHRONICLE

Having lived in Milford for the
past two years, l would like to say a
word concerning these good people,
just as find them, as l mingle with
them in a general way. First of all
l regard it distinguished honor 20
be stepping in the footsteps of the
late Rev. Daniel G. Waters, my
grandfather, who lived in this town
quite a number of years ago as min
lister of the gospel of the Methodist
Episcopal Church, and who, accord
ing to the many pleasing express
sions that come to me from some Of
the most outstanding white gentle
men of this community, as well as
from a host of my own people, he
must have been a social, moral and
religious asset to the community ra-
ther than a liability It has been my
good pleasure since / have been
here to try to deport myself as be-
comes a Christian minister of the
gospel of Jesus Christ, which | hope
will redOwn to the moral, social and
religious life of my people.
My conception of the people of
Milford is as follows: ! find the
white people here of the very high
est class. with the kindest regard
toward helpless people. when con-
vinced that they strive to better
their condition. The very church in
which / worship is an expression of
the very kind, and generous atti- |
tude of these white friends toward /
the people of my race, for this /
church once belonged to that race, /
but in building a church to accom-
nOdate their growing congregation,
hey sold this church to us for
very moderate price. thereby max
ng it possible to my people to have
1ne of the finest churches on the
Peninsular, for which
We are very grateful.
In business / find the white peO-
Die in this town willing to extend
my favor that the financial cOndi-
ion of the present will allow. have
lever been refused by any of these
,OOd people, perhaps it is because
try not TO ask the unreasonable !
avor. Here everyone receives a kind
ook, a pleasant answer-what more
ould anyone expect?
/ am sorry that the economic
ondition has decreed that some of
ur people are out of work. but
m making this appeal to the good T
Ihite friends, that wherever you
an find it possible, you will help
~ struggling race by giving them
ONE work, and even if the pay is
mall. it will be far better than let
ng them go idle, for l am told that
lie hands are the DEVILS work shop
'e do not claim perfection as a race
ut with your perpetual help and
such as You have given
e hope to arrive in an early date,
, 4 social and general standard of
fe which will cause you to be 3
roud that you have helped a race
