of his hoe as he is of his axe. The
dictionary prosaically states that a
hoe is "long-handled implement
with a blade set transversely. The
book of words in sequence does not
mention that the blade must be very
sharp, and that the handle, while
light in weight, must be sufficiently
strong so a man can lean upon il
reasonably frequently.
There are those, especially on the
distaff side, who do not understand
mans philosophy about hoeing
After spell of stirring the earth and
leaving it smooth and fresh-brown
one needs to lean on his hoe and
survey the fresh-stirred soil. 1t is
good to look across fields and hill
sides, across meadows and creek
bottoms to blue-green hills against
the horizon. Hoeing is an art that
serves various needs. For even as one
clears weeds from his garden, he can
clear cobwebs from heart and mind
as he works with the living plants and
the soil of his garden.

Time For The Specialist

This is time of year the specialist is likely to knock
at vour door He will pose as expert roor cesspoo and
cstern cleaner master surgeon with special ingredients
for spraying trimming evergreens try to sell you
peat moss with special plant nutrients If not on
guard YOU are likely wind up with job and
axhoitant bill or halfway or ineffective piece of work at
an exhorbtant price.
Last summer will be recalled that several local families
were bked by professional roof painters who agreed to do
work bargain prices only they forgot to do part OF the
work or used inferior materials.
When strangers call at your farm home to do these
odd jobs don't in haste Get all the information required
be sure YOU are dealing with reputable people and firms
Find they going to do and how much they are
going to charge Check their material and the type of work
thew will do with local costs-and don't pay anything in ad
vance unless you know who you are dealing with.
The chances are that most every instance you buy
the same material and service locally from business firms
who plan on remaining in business for long, long time
Investigate before you invest.

BLUFFTON'S FAVORITE spring
sport-mushroom hunting-opened in
earnest last week as rains and
warmer, humid weather boded well
for the searcher. The hunters stories,
however, were taller than the sponges
they found in local woodlots, and for
the most part a man counted himself
lucky if he turned up with poke of
mushrooms fit for a meal in five
mile walk and expenditure of half a
day.
What are mushrooms worth on the
local market, one wag wanted to
know this week Veteran hunters, who
would rather sell their soul than a
mushroom, estimated that If they
could be purchased from the more
mercenary a fair price would be al
least $40 per pound. At this rate the
spring delicacy would be worth some
$4,000 per ton, and it appears thai
hunting mushrooms, seasonable as
the job might be, would pay better
than prospecting for uranium.
THERE ARE SOM f HOMES
mushroom hunters. If you have aeve
run across one, you'll have to tax
our word. For example, Bob Benros
admitted that he has been i'm the fiel
five times. has walked approximate
25 miles through wood and meadow
and along railroad ties, and thus ia
has found three mushrooms.

Art of Hoeing

0LDTIME arts and crafts are
" enjoying a well-deserved renais
sance, and it is possible the gentl,
art of hoeing will join the group. A
one-horse farmer is instinctively
conditioned against further centraliza
ton of laws in Washington bureaus
but it is possible that another law
and another set of officials could be
beneficial. If all our lawmakers
national, state and local, spent al
hour a day hoeing it could well bt
that our society's gears would mesl
more smoothly.
To experience the gentle art of
hoeing with pleasure, satisfaction
and profit, certain basic condi-
tions must be foreseen and pro-
vided. The soil must be mellow
and free of rocks, sticks and turf
clumps. 1t should be filled with
good humus material, not too
sandy or too clayey. Any patch
of soil used for vegetables or
flowers should be spaded to rid
the area of witchgrass and other
perennial weed clumps. A man
can master small annual weeds,
but witchgrass is a doughty, non.
yielding enemy.
A good countryman is as choic
