“Every man also to whom God
hath given riches and wealth, and
hath given him power to eat there
of, and to take his portion, and to
rejoice in his labour this is the
gift of God. For he shall not much
remember the days' of his life; be
cause God answereth him in the
joy of his heart.”—Eccl. 5:19,20

will come up next spring as soon
as frost kills the foliage.
Do not fertilize too highly dur
ing fall. This insures you of a quick
kill by cold weather.
To destroy pests and insects
burn all plants that are diseased
or infested by insects.
Plant camellias on the north side
of the house and wall. Be sure to
keep them well watered and well
mulched. Some good ones to plant
that stand a lot of cold weather are
Tricolor, Empress, Elegans and
Mathoticna. Keep your soil light
and acid.
If your evergreens have bunches
of dried, twisted up leaves and
twigs on them, spray with arsenate
for bagworm.
Dig dahlia and gladiolus bulbs
before the ground freezes. Store in
a dark, warm place for winter. Peat
moss is wonderful to pack them in.
Any plants that have a tendency
to have mildew or mold, may be
treated, if it is dormant in winter
by piling coal ashes over the roots.
November is a good month to
plant bulbs, but continue to plant
until late December, including li
lies.
To cover an unsightly compost
pile, purchase a black compost
cover for $1.00.
If you are bothered with dogs
and cats around the shrubbery—
use Dogzoff—from your seed store.
Dogs do lots of damage.
When The Frost Is On The Punkin
■When the frost is on the punkin
and the fodder’s in the shock,
And you hear the call of the
gobble of the struttin’ turkey-
cock.
And the clackin’ of the gqineys,
and the cluckin’ of the hens,
And the rooster’s hallylooyers as
he tiptoes on the fense;
Oh, it’s then’s the times a fellow
is feelin’ at his best,
VVith the rising sun to greet him

As he leaves the house bareheaded
and goes out to feed the stock.
When the frost is on the punkin
and the fodder’s in the shock.
They’s something kind o’ harty-like
about the atmosphere
When the heat of summer’s over
and the cooling fall is here—
Of course, we miss the flowers, and
blossoms on the trees.
And the mumble of the hummin’
birds and buzzing of the bees;
But the air is so appetizin’, and
the landscape through the haze
Of a crisp and sunny morning of
the airy autumn days
Is a picture that no painter has
the colorin’ to mock;
When the frost is on the punkin
and the fodder’s in the shock.

HOW CAN I... ?
Q—How can I remove wall paper
easily?
/
A—^Wall paper can be removed
easily if one will use a heaping
tablespoon of saltpeter to a gallon
of hot water and apply to the paper
with a brush. A whitewash brush
is best for this purpose. The water
should be kept hot, and after a
few applications the paper can be
easily pulled off.
Q—How can I remove cod liver
oil stains from fabrics?
A—Sponge freely with carbon
tetrachloride and then wash in
warm soapsuds. This should be
done as soon as possible.

As a New Bern parent, what is
your definition of a baby? Someone
has described it as an alimentary
canal with a loud voice at one end,
and no responsibility at the other.
Another description depicts a ba
by as the morning caller, the noon
day crawler and the midnight bawl-
er. And, more than that, a native
of all countries, who speaks the
language of none.
Sooner or later, of course, a ba
by gets spoiled. The cynic says
this happens because we can’t
spank grandmothers. There’s a lot
of truth in that ■ flippant remark,
since New Bern’s grandmothers in
variably pamper their grandchil
dren far more than they did their
own youngsters. Nothing will ever
change this state of affairs.
In the same cynical vein, it has
been observed that mOkt folks
could manage the wolf at the door,
if the stork didn’t fly in the win
dow. All of us will agree that ba
bies are expensive, and that in
truth the stork seems to be the on
ly thing in all the world that dis-

criminates in favor of the poor.
Yet, those who have no children
seem to have just as much trouble
living within their income, and
miss out on the pleasure of parent
hood in the bargain. Besides, the
average mother with kids running
her crazy is much too occupied to
pay much attention to the wolf
camping on the doorstep.
Rich or poor, babies are nice
things to have in the household. In
fact, one philosopher has said that
marriage turns out to be a howling
success only after a baby is born.
This isn’t entirely true, since some
of the happiest couples we know
are childless. Through necessity, if
nothing else, they are apt to be-
come quite devoted to each other.
Babies, if you ask us, defy'de
scription. No two are completely
alike, and that is in keeping with
all of the other miracles in God’s
marvelous Creation.
