Buds
AND
Blossoms
By
MAMIE MILLER
“The Lord Is my light and
my salvation; whom shall I
fear? the Lord Is the strength
of my life; of whom shall I be
afraid?’’—Psalm 27:1.
Love-In-A-Mist is an an
nual, but it would be well to
remember to plant it next
spring. Leave space for this.
It is of the Ranunculocloe fam
ily. It does well in meadows
and waste places. It is some
times called Devil-In-The-
Bush because of the object in

SORE AFFLICTION
I do not ask for healing
But, Lord, I ask for grace
That I in sore affliction
May see Thy blessed face.
That I might look to Thee, Lord,
And trust Thee more and more.
And know Thou makest blessings
Of my afflictions sore.
For great indeed are blessings
When Thine own Word I heed.
And turn to Thee and trust Thee
To fill my every need.
The healing of our bodies
Can make our bodies whole.
But sore affliction worfceth
Great healing of the soul.
So in my sore affliction
I pray to ever be
A trusting and obedient child.
For then Thou healest me.

the center of the bloom.
This plant grown in the Holy
Land and has been used In
place of pepper. The stems
are used for medicine. Bread
is flavored with parts of this
flower, Love-In-The-Mist
comes mostly in blue and white
and is ideal for use in fresh
and dried bouquets.
Pyrethrum is a Herbaceous
perennial. It is known as the
Painted Daisy. The foliage is
dark green, and forms a mound
where the usually leafless
flower stalk rises. The foliage
is pretty, even if it doesn’t
bloom well.
Scablosa is an annual or a
Herbaceous perennial. It is a
native of Europe and Asia. The
plant is used for the treating
of scabies. In a garden club very
much concerned with'the way
that members were having their
gardens ruined hy a neigh
bor’s dog, one member came up
with a clever idea.
Word was spread (for the
benefit of the neighbor) that
every garden on the block had
Scablosa in it. The neighbor
wasn’t a flower grower, and
that word—Scablosa—had an
awful sound to her. Fearful
that her dog would be poi
soned, she took care to keep
him In his own yard from that
day on.
Don’t put out roses until the
bushes are completely dor-
'mant. Feed regularly, but don’t
rush too much. Visit nurseries
for added shrubs, pansy plants,
candytuft and English daisies.
They should be planted now.
This week’s Buds and Blos
soms poem, from the incompar
able pen of Robert Frost, Is
entitled “Reluctance.’’
Out through the fields and woods
And over the walls I have
wended.
I have climbed the hills of view
And looked at the world, and
descended;
I have come by the highway
home,
And lo, it is ended.
The leaves are all dead on the
ground.
Save those that the oak is

COOKING.^
New Bern housewives who
take pride in dishes that are
delightfully different can do
worse than try their hand at
Swedish holiday bread.
For Ingredients, you’ll need
two cups of milk; two pack
ages of active dry or compress
ed yeast; one-half cup of luke
warm water; one-half cup of
shortening; one-half cup of but
ter; one cup of sugar; two eggs,
well beaten; one teaspoon of
salt; one-half teaspoon of
ground cardamom seed; seven
cups of all-purpose flour; one-
half pound of seedless raisins;
one-half pound of citron, diced
fine; one egg yolk; two table
spoons of sugar; two table
spoons of milk.
Scald the two cUps of milk
and let cool. Soften yeast in
water, and add to the cooled
keeping
To ravel them one by one
And let them go scraping and
creeping
Out over the crusted snow.
When others are sleeping.
And the dead leaves lie hud
dled and still.
No longer blown hither and
thither;
The last lone aster is gone;
The flowers of the witch-
hazel wither;
The heart is still aching to
seek.
But the feet question “Whith
er?’’
Ah, when to the heart of man
Was it ever less than a
treason
To go with the drift of things.
To yield with a grace to rea
son.
And bow and accept the end
Of a love or a season.
