Gardner Visitors are always impressed, > one way or the other, when theyi pass through your town or com munity. They may not have time to stop and enjoy your friendliness j and hospitality, but they do have a chance to observe your homes, yards, streets and certain places of interest which may have been I called to their attention. They also J see the trash dumps and wrecked car lots. Many things can and should be accomplished by group action but, in my book, nothing can take the place of individual responsibility.^' This is especially true as far as our immediate home surroundings are cqncerned. Need we be reminded of our obligations as home own ers and parents by: “Clean-up Weeks”; “Paint-up Weeks”; and such proddings? Could not we re solve, as individual citizens, to de vote 52 weeks in the’year to the improvement of our surroundings? I can think of no better medium of advertising North Carolina. I am not an idealist in this respect. It is just something I would like to see accomplished.

Miss Shearin said, “Pickle-mak ing begins with the brine, and to carelessly make or carelessly main tain a brine is the reason for most of the soft and unfit pidkles.” She suggested that they use a stone or glass container for brining pickles and if they used a stone jar to be sure it had not been used before. “Never use a chum that has been used for milk because’milk is ab sorbed in stone and will get in the brine,” stated Miss Shearin. She said, “A brine in which a fresh egg just floats is approximately a 10 per cent solution and maintain this per cent through the entire brin ing period.” Those attending the pickle dem- • grounds!

One of 1 the busiest men I know has one of j the most beautiful homes in our neighborhood and he does all the work himself, with the assistance I of an occasional helper. I Since I began writing this col umn I have been more observant as I travel over the state. A couple of weeks ago I passed through a small town which I have always admired. The homes are well kept, ,the main street lined with maples, and most of the yards well planted and maintained. A few could stand a little help. While not too bad, they detract from the other by comparison. Get in friendly com petition with your neighbor. Timely reminders: Prune flow ering shrubs after blooming. Mow your lawn often and never too close. Top dress your grass with quickly available nitrogen often enough to promote growth and good green color. Side dress leafy vegetables with nitrogen to make them tender and succulent. Keep your sprayer or duster in good con dition so that you can keep insects I and diseases in check. onstration were Mrs. Roland Ev ans, Mrs. A. S.
