" ? x ?.0 EASTER " ^ ?_^ ^ ^ Easter comes at a glad season of .the "year. The festival itself, is both commemorative of the resurrec tion of Jesus Christ and as a mem orial to the atonement wrought by the death of the Master upon the cross. It is hailed with great acciaim in ail the Christian churches of the world. In Greek and Latin and in the languages, derived from them, Easter was known as "Padcha," "Pasch," "Pasqua," "Paques," etc., from the Chaldee word, "Pascha," the equivalent of the Hebrew "Pe sach." The "Destroying Angel's act is recalled by the last name in "pass ing over" the households of the He brews when he smote the Egyptians, as disclosed in the twelfth chapter of Exodus. This year Easter will fal on April 17. The way by which Easter is de termined is that of the first Sunday after the paschal- full moon?the fourteenth day of the calendar moon, or the full moon which happens upon , or next 3fter March 21; and if the vfull moon happens on a Sunday, then Easter day is the first Sunday fol .. lowing. As usual Farmville churches will j observe Easter with elaborate pro grams. It is an event that the child ren and the grown-ups have learned to look forward to with much pleas urable anticipation; it is an event all shoud remember with some beauti ful thought for the day. Sometimes a floating indebtedness gets heavy enough to sink. Some men who stand on their dig nity give evidence of not having much else to stand on. Many a man falls into debt, but the process of getting out is usually one of crawling. GARDEN TIME Poets and philosophers tell of the satisfaction obtained from cultivation of flower and vegetable gardens, but the practice is not as general as could be wished. In many places there is much less gardening than there was - some years ago. People have too * many things they want to do with their spare time. In many cities and towns, however, the garden movement has been push- | ed as a community proposition. Peo 'ple have been urged, in a systematic way, to decorate their grounds with - handsome shrubbery and flowers, and some of these communities have de veloped an amazing amount of this ~ beautification. * v. Such towns become noted, and every minute of tifne put in on those flower beds is no doubt paid for in the high er value of real estate that is es ?? taolished in such a town,' - . Home pride is the motive that can best be relied upon to promote th2 gardening movement People wfil ? * usually do what their neighbors do. - If'you persuade one or two influential ' "families on a street to spend a little more time and money beautifying their places this season, the majority r of their neighbors would, within .a year or two, fall into line and do the same thing. . As respects vegetables, the advan tage of the back yard garden ought ~ to be obvious in these tones of high * prices. The children of the modern - " community do not have enough share '' m the home tasks, and it would do them good to have some regular la bors in a garden and they could well - do a go*-* deal of its work. But the "-old foBrr cannot expect than thus to labor unless they also are willing to do some stunts with the spade and '% 'hoe.

Don't wean pigs before they are 10 weeks old unless there is some .special reason for earlier weaning. Some , breeders wean at an earlier :age to get two litters a year. Ordi-j narily a better practics is to raise three litters , i ntwo ? years. A pig ?that is stunted by early weaning or ?from any other cause will never make so; profitable a hog as it would if this setback had not occurred. When the'pigs are to be weaned, reduce the) richhess and quantity of the sow's feed four or five davs before wean-i Irfig. this will have a tendency to [ reduce .the flow of milk. ?ILvl, : Henry Ford sold groceries at cost in his Dearborn stores last year and made $400,000? which is funny, if you know what we mean.
