Strawberries: Apply 2 quarts of 8-8-8 fertilizer per 100 feet of • row 2 weeks before setting plants. In August or September use one gallon of 8-8-8 per 100 feet of row.

The 4-H County Council will meet Saturday, January 18, at the office, 2:00 P. M. Officers from each 4-H Cluj? are asked to be present. This time of year there is gen erally an increase in home fires. This should remind us to be extra careful. Keep very young chil dren in sight and in mind all the ' time; they need 100 per cent pro-j tection from fire. Teach older, children the safe and proper use' of fire; remember that they learn 1 best by your example. Are all of your chimneys kept j in good condition Repair cracks J | and other defects with cement j mortar. Good roofing is one of the best protections against fire. I Have stoves at least eighteen j inches from walls and wood work, j note of kerosene heaters. Whole families have been wiped, out by fires caused by kerosene j heaters when they flared up dur- : ing the night. Check all electri-1 cal systems, Have a competent j electrician install approved wir ing. Get rid of all explosives or flamable liquids such as gasoline. ■ Never use gasoline or kerosene to light or quicken a stubborn fire in a coal or wood burning stove or fireplace. The minute you dis. cover fire or suspect one, get out of the house and get every one else out at the same time.
