Caledonia, Sept. 6.—“T h e
primary duty of each local
community iu America is to ex-
amine the foundations of its.
life and decide upon what is
good and W' rth-while. Organ-
ization of th* leisure activity of
individuals and communities
under high moral, social and
beautiful ideals is as funda-
mental to civilized society as
are industry, trade and gov-
ernment. Bather than declare
a moratorium on the moral
and spiritual growth of chil-
dren, let ns do all we can to
strengthen their character and
support all institutions and
those organizations that are
helping develop character.”—
(Scouting.)

Our birthday bank is going

days—you can look around
and see who looks like they
have had one recently—both
young and old!

crowd for League. The bap-
tizing which was to have been

Now that we have had good
rains over the county, there
are plenty of vegetable* that
can be planted and will ma-
ture unless there is an excep-
tionally early killing frost—
the average date of the first
killing frost being Nov. 11 for
this section. Vegetables that
may be planted from Sept. 1 to
15 are; Cabbage, radish, car-
rots, bush beans, beets. Swiss
chard and turnips. On good
land squash should mature as
well as pinto beans and Irish
potstoes. Vegetables that
may be planted Oct 1 to 30
are: Spinach, radishes, mus-
tard, lettuce and onion sets.
The soil should be well pul-
verized. About one-fourth
more seed should be planted
than for spring gardens and
the seeds should be planted
deeper.
Well rotted manure or com-
mercial fertilizer should be
used.
Lice are bad in the fall but
they can be controlled. Sho-
goin turnips is one variety of
turnips that lice do not bother.
