~ House Plants and Care of Them ~
Season for Potted
Plants and Shrubs is Here - Care Should be Taken in
Their Handling.
“Don’t Fuss’ with and handle plants too much. Like human
beings they do not want to be nagged too much,” advises Horace F. MAJOR of the
Sunlight is necessary to produce
proper chemical reactions in the soil.
Air is needed for breathing for
plants like humans breathe. Plants absorb carbon dioxide gas to purify the air
in the home. They should be watered with judgment and washed off. Blooming
plants should be repotted three times year, ferns every three years. Do not
crowd them into small pots. Yellow leaves mean too much water and brown leaves
mean drought.

feed from the trough out side. The ration consisted of corn meal, 7 pounds;

We had a beautiful story of how Jim KING
was held up by three auto pads, and robbed of his small change, $1.35. The story
was that “Jim” and Henry MORRIS had been out late playing checkers and on their
way home were held up, robbed and told that old men ought not to be out
so
late. It develops, however, that “Father” J. Robert EVANS merely told
the story to excite the sympathy of some of “Jim’s” grandchildren. It was just a story to scare the “kids”,
and
there was nothing to it but “Father’s” inventive and mischievous
mind.
~ Walking Best Health Aid In The Winter ~
Cold Increases the
Appetite and Necessitates the Taking of More Exercise.
With the coming of
cold weather exercise should not be forgotten. It is needed more than ever. With
the advent of winter the appetite for sweet and greasy things increases and most
people over eat. To utilize this amount of food, plenty of exercise in the
bracing fresh air is required.
Among the best exercises and the one which is
within the range of everyone, is walking. Five miles a day is not too much for
the average person, and seldom have such weather conditions occurred as to make
this impossible. It is not well to walk so rapidly or so far as to induce
excessive fatigue. It is not advisable to walk in the face of a strong wind if
it can be avoided. Those who are not accustomed to walking should begin by going
a short distance each day, preferably on fairly level ground, gradually
increasing the distance and the speed.
The President of the American Walker’s
Association gives this advice on the proper method of walking. “Walk upright,
shoulders back, chest expanded, allows arms to swing freely, step out with a
snap. Walk with the hips, not with the knees. The slow, haphazard, often slouchy
gain of the ordinary citizen is not walking. It is a poor imitation that gets
him nowhere and is of little
or no value as a health builder. How different is the walk of the
practiced pedestrian gliding along
with long, even stride, head erect,
freely in perfect rhythm to each thrust of the opposite leg. Covering distances
with little effort that to the average person would be quite impossible at the
gait that surprises the casual observer, he finds his walking a pleasure second
to none.
He visits places of interest impossible to reach by trolley or
train, traverses roads through the most beautiful scenery, climbs up hills and
down dales, and roams through fields and woods inaccessible even to the
automobilist and the cyclist. In
addition, he fills his lungs with pure invigorating air, sends his blood pulsing
through his veins, carrying fresh life and vitality to
every part of his
body.”

Peace is talked freely and more gigantic
preparations for the war’s continuance are being constantly made. Our friend
Villa has broken out again and it looks very much as though the Carranza government in
All of
the county officers at
his whole duty.
Judge LAMM has consented to
the use of his name, to contest the election of Frederick D. GARDNER, to the
governorship. The Judge says that he does so solely in the interest of the
people, who have a right to know whether or not an attempt has been made to
thwart their will.
Independent of the few politicians, who are interested in
getting jobs, it seems to us, that no honest fair minded Democrat can or will
object to a contest that will go to the root of things and disclose fraud, if
any there was, wherever found and regardless of who the guilty party may be. If
LAMM was the real choice of the people he ought to be governor. It our motto
“Vox Populi Suprema lox esto” is to remain
true, and the will of the people is to be the supreme law, then all should be
interested in seeing that a fair expression of that will is not denied, by
fraud, at the ballot boxes, where alone, the people’s will can be surely
registered.
State Auditor GORDON, answering an inquiry of Frederick D.
GARDNER, Governor elect, on the face of the returns, and now Governor by virtue
of the face of the returns, admits a deficit in State finances, of over a
million and approximately one and one half million dollars. That is to say:
there are bills to pay aggregating almost a million and a half dollars, and the
money to pay is not in sight. The last Legislature, as has been heretofore
pointed out by the Republicans of the State,
appropriated over three million
more dollars than the revenues of the State amounted to, which statement was
also denied vigorously by Democratic Press and officials. We might make some
very pointed comment, but it would do no good. The good citizen, who is really
interested in good government, will know he has been deceived by those in whom
he placed trust and by his party leaders for partisan advantage. If knowing
this, he is big enough to resent it and demand a
square deal in politics as
he does in his personal business, then the country is safe.

generally followed.

~ Charity and Good Roads
~
Once each year the great public mellows up and remembers the poor which “ye
always have with ye”. For one day they are dragged into the limelight and held
up as horrible examples of what they ought not to be, stuffed with turkey and
sweets and forgotten for another year.
The fact the poor are becoming greater
in numbers each year in the face of greater prosperity is an illustration
that the average man is giving little or not thought to the public good. An
examination into the cause of this distress on the part of so many people
reveals the fact that a large portion of them have drifted into the cities and
towns from the country for the purpose of enjoying greater school and social
facilities, driven off the land on account of poor roads and poor schools. The
natural results followed, and many of them became objects of
charity.
Good roads in the country will bring good schools and the drift
to town to educate the children will stop. The country will become a more
desirable place to live and the drift will be toward it rather than, as now,
away from it.
If the time and energy, and the money that now goes to
relieve the sufferings of the poor for one or two days in the year were devoted
to the improvement of the public roads and public schools “poor” problems would
not be hard to solve.
Let’s give some thought to finding the cause and
applying the remedy.
