Washington President Hoover
i was charged by Senator Harrison
with pocket-vetoing the Wagner tin
employment bill, because of its demo
cratic origin- In a statement thru
, me iiemoci ui ic iiuiionai cumuli tiec,
the Mississippi democrat said "it is
evidently the administration philoso
phy that it is better that a few mil-
; lion people should go hungry for a
year more than to have their agony
, relieved by a democrat."
Harrison said "every laboring man
competent to speak for the workman's
; organizations ' who appeared at con-
1 gressional hearings on the bill had
! supported it. Arthur Woods, chair
man of the president's employment
( committee, and Secretary Doak, be
fore he entered the cabinet, were cit
ed as supporters.
In the Better Yards and Garden
Contest it is now time that people
should begin to arrange their lawns.
There is ai considerable space in front
of and around every residence on a
44 foot by 140 foot lot. The lawn
should be open in the center, well
kept, weedless and in good condition.
Flower beds and odd specimens of
plants should be kept around the
edge of the lawn rather than in the
center. As soon as this snow disap
pears every home-owner should im
mediately inspect the lawn and
street parking. If there are any low
places in the lawn they should be fill
ed with rich soil. The parking
should always receive the same treat
ment as the lawa. Rake the lawn
and parking thoroughly. All thin
and barren spots should be sown with
a three to one mixture of Kentucky
Blue Grass and White Clover Beed.
Get your lawn and parking or street
border in the best possible condition
early. It will insure you much pleas
ure and comfort.
. Gardens and yards which other
wise might have been beautiful have
Ihncn Knnilttd hv ill-kent lawns, and
others that are below average have
been given added attraction by a
lawn properly cared for. Too many
gardeners however, consider the lawn
the last resort and merely scatter a
few Beeds on a bare spot, trusting in
luck that a velvety green carpet will
grow.
First: When should the lawn be
started?
Though the beet time to seed is in
the last part of August, and early
iu September, excellesent results can
be obtained by starting in March.
Second: What is the proper
amount of seed to use?
The usual amount is a pound for
every 250 square feet of ground to
be seeded.
Third: What is the best fertil
izer? The best fertilizer is a good top
dressing of bone meal, one pound to
every 200 square feet of lawn.
Fourth: When should the lawn
be cut?
New lawns should be cut first when
the grass reaches a height of about
four inches. Then cut it weekly. 1
not rake off the clippings for they
protect the lawn and help conserve
the moisture. Continue to cut the
lawn through the autumn. Just as
long as the grass continues to grow
keep at it with the mower.

one division at the Methodist church
in the afternoon, but this arrange
ment will not be necessary. Admis
sion prices will be fifteen cents to
all school people and twenty-five
cents to all others. There will be at
least twenty speakers and a fine con
test is assured. Several fine music
selections have been provided for
featuring the Boys Olee Club, the

aha. Miss Mary Jane Tidball, director
of the contest has been assisted by
Miss Florence Beighley, Mr. I L.
Starrett and Mr. G. K. Kvasnicka.

The Febuary meeting of the River-
view Club was held at the home of
Mrs. Frank Hull. The meeting was
opened in the usual way by the sing
ing of our song for this month which
was "Juanita."
A short business session was held
and it was decided upon to send two
men to our next Project Leaders

Major Hall and Mr. Harold Hull
were selected as the two to get the
lesson planned by our County Ex
tension Agent Mr- Wainscott.
The lesson on "Selection of Kit
chen Cutlery" was then given by oitr
leaders, Mrs. Creamer and Mrs. Joe
Campbell. A very complete displav
of kitchen knives was shown and tb
good and bad points discussed.
The leaders also showed some good
kinds of graters, sharpeners and can
openers.
Convenience and efficiency is the
result of using the proper kind of
kitchen cutlery.
The meeting adjourned and will
meet again March fith. Mrs. Hull
served refreshments at the close of
the afternoon, assisted by Mrs. Har
old Hull, and these were very much
enjoyed by all.
Thursday evening March 5th, we
met at the home of Mrs. H. Gayer
and held our local achievement pro

and purposes of our year's work
with interesting items of what our
club has done, was read by Mrs.

talk on the "Value of Keeping Home
Accounts," how her records have
helped her and the value of the rec
ords in the future.
Then the meeting was turned ober
to the two men. Mr. Major Hall and
Mr. Harold Hull, wo very ably dis
cussed the topic of "Practical Home
Problems on the Farm" including
heating, humidity, insulation and
some demodeling which would old in
solving these problems.
The talks were given with the use
of blue print charts and many sam
ples of material. The men also show

You don't expect superfine quality in
15c to 25c a pound Chocolates nor
will you get it in cheap meats. We
sell only a good quality and that at
a fair price. A comparison will quick
ly prove to you that there is just as
much difference in meats as between
25c and 75c per pound Chocolates.
