enjoy the pool without being
blinded by the light.
These small lights are not only
useful for lighting up focal
points in the garden. but also for
lighting up steps, walks and
other places where one might
stumble in the dark. OF course
there are stronger lights such as
fioodlights and other types which
will prove useful for Illuminating.
areas where work is to be done,
where providers are to be exposed,
and for lighting up large trees.
Even. special types to accentuate
foliage colors.
The installation of outdoor
lighting is not difficult with the
modern waterproof conduits and
receptacles. Cotton covered wires
should be avoided in favor of
rubber-covered ones. And for
underground conduits to distant
places use the parkway" cable
which is just as satisfactory as
the old lead-covered cable and
much less expensive. The under
ground cable is relatively
permanent installation. hence
should be placed where it will
not be disturbed by digging. Lay
the cable on a bed of sand to
prevent standing water, and if it
must be laid under a sidewalk,
path, or roadway, it should have
a board or other covering to pre-
vent pressure.
Temporary Cords Good
A satisfactory temporary con-
ductor is the nodded rubber
coated wire that can safely rest
on the ground-laid along the
edge of flower beds, or through
the shrubbery to wherever a
light is wanted. This type is
often used to carry electricity
from the outlets supplied by an
underground cable.
In all cases use weatherproof
sockets so that moisture will not
, get in and cause trouble. Always
tighten the bulbs so that the rub
Der gasket fits snugly about the
bulb. Where there is danger of
children or workmen striking
them the bulbs should be pro-
tected with guards, not only to
avoid bulbs breaking, but also
to avoid cuts from broken glass.
Where flood lights are to be
placed in trees it is desirable to
mount them as inconSpicuously
as possible. Also place them so
that they will not cause annoy
ance to neighbors or to passers-
by. And, do not overlook the
unusual effects to be gained by
lighting the limbs and foliage of
one or more trees around the
garden. 1t gives an entirely diff
ferent picture than the one to
be seen in the daytime.

Rita Has Hints
For Food Shoppers

The Christmas food shopping
season has arrived, and according
to Rita Cummins, Home Agent in
Ottawa County, food shoppers will
find heaps of goodies under their
Christmas shopping tree.
Nut growers have turned out ex-
ceptionally good crops of all va
rieties except pecans and peanuts
which were dwindled by drouth.
With production this year of 161
million pounds, walnuts are lead
er. The filbert production in the
northwest is almost double that of
last year. Filberts are known in
some areas as Hazel Nuts. Cali
fornia has an almond crop that is
$3.50 larger than last year.
Miss Cummins suggests that
homemakers consider packaged,
shelled, nut meats to save time and
effort in the kitchen. The shelled
nuts usually cost only few pen
nieS more than nuts in the shell.
Using English Walnuts as an ex-
ample for cost comparisons, it
takes 212 pounds of nuts in the
shell to equal one pound of shelled
nut meats. To get one pound of
shelled almonds would require 312
pounds of almonds in the shell.
Try it, compare prices on your
own.
All varieties of nuts provide gen.
erous amounts of protein and Vita
min B1. They add flavor and CLAM
our to MANY Christmas foods.

Rolling Quake
Causes Minor
.Danlage1n West

RENO, PA rolling earthquake
of high intensity shook Nevada
and California early today but only
minor damage was reported.
The quake, described as the
heaviest of three that have Jared
this area since last July, was felt
as far as Elko, New, 200 miles
east of here, and throughout most
of California to the west.
It was timed at 3:07 am. in Reno
and $40 am. in San Francisco. A
second minor tremor was felt
here at 800.
'Fallon, New, a small agriculture al
community approximately 60 miles
east of Reno and the center of
two recent quakes, was believed TO
be the center of today's quake.
However, Sheriff George wilkins
said preliminary checks showed
only minor damage with some
ceilings cracked and some bricks
Knocked loose" He said his depu-
ties still were checking the out
lying farm areas which took the
brunt of other shocks.
Wilkins said today'S earthquake
was "by far the heaviest of all
three. He attributed Fallon's light
damage to the fact the last quake
just about knocked everything
down that was at all loose"
Parts of Lovelock, New, also
east of Reno, were blacked out
when a section of the city's elec-
trio power system failed briefly.
However, no other damage was
reported. Lovelock police also de-
scribed today's quake as heavier
than the previous ones.

Gated the earthquake was felt al
most from the Oregon border to
deep in Southern California. A
PG&E spokesman said, however.
there were no reports of damage.
The temblor was felt as far south
as the Los Angeles area, 5OO.plus
miles from the center. San Diego
police, another $50 miles away,
said that city almost on the Mexi-
can border did not feel any shock.

The town of Bishop, east of the
Sierra Nevada range, reported a
three-minute rolling quake at about
800 am, followed by a 3O-second
temblor five minutes later. No
damage was reported.
At ViSalia and Portervilie in
California's Tulare County south
of Fresno, sheriff'S officers re-
ported the quake was felt only
slightly. A sheriff's dispatcher at
Visalia said 81 thought l was

Apparently few people other than
tourists noticed the quake in San
Francisco. Police said the few calls
they had came mostly from hotels.
The city quivered bit, but there
were no reports of damage.
Throughout western Nevada, resi-
dents reported they were awakened
by a heavy rumbling, rolling mo-
tion that eliminated in a violent
jar. Some people said they felt
the quake for as long as four
minutes.
