With the approach of Spring there I
is always an irresistable call to the j
pen country where one can inhale the
pure fresh air of Springtime and study
aature in all her respondent beauty. J
his year with the approach of Spring
Denton Spring Park furnishes a rend- j
zvous for this Springtime call. In the j
.ifurnooi.s one sees Groups of young
people in sport attire with tennis rackets
under their arms or across their
shoulder headed for the tennis court
which has been laid off in the Park.
Other carry along their Hiawaln
iJklees and guitars and spend a quiet
iftcrnoon singing and' picking out
weird meiodies on these quaint old
instruments. Others are content to
loungt around on the benches i^ the I
Park.
In the evenings on drawing around'
the Park one frequently sees a big
i.on fire with groups gathered around
it roasting weenies, feasting marshmellows
etc.
Not many towns the size of Columbus
pan boast of a Park where young
and old may meeV have picnics, and
enjoy good wholesome sport and recreation
together; so it no wonder the
town is proud of Denton Spring Park.
However the Park is not reserve
sola'y for local residents-. Residents
of other towns are at liberty to lunch,
nicnic and eniov the Park too.

In the latter part at October each
year the English city of Sheffield celebrates
its Cutlers' feast, a dvlc function
that has bean held annually since
1648, when the first of the city's master
cutlers was elected. The banquet
i Is attended by captains of Industry
from all over the empire, and by at
least one minister of the crown. Two
toasts that are always drunk with en
i thuslasra are: "Eternal destruction to
all false marks on Sheffield goods" and
"success to the Hallamshlre Wblttells."
This quaint wording Is explained by
the fact that the park of Yorkshire
where Sheffield Is situated was once
known as Hallamshlre, while "wblttell"
is an old name for a knife.
There la no public office more highly
esteemed than this. As head of the
ancient Cutlers' guild the master takes
precedence next to the lord mayor 01
Sheffield.

There is no reason why our farmers I
should not increase the size of their I
flock now that a regular market I
is being provided enabling them toll
dispose of surplus poultry for cash I
sevefal times during the year. 1
Not only should Polk County grow I
poultry business but in dairying too. I
At present there is very little if any j I
surplus mi'k produced and unfortuna- I
tely there are too few purebred cows I
on its farms. It is the desire of tne I
County Agent to find a market for I
dairy products and thus encourage our I
farmers to replace scrub sires and I
cows with purebreds that are more ll
worthy of their hire. i
