Timely Hints For
Farm Homemakers
By Ruth Current
You spend one-third of your life
in bed, so it is logical that the
choice and care of a mattress
should be important in the house
keeping plan.
You can guarantee long life for
your mattresses by observing a
few simple rules. First and fore
most, matresses should be turned
frequently to help keep their shape
and resiliency. Many mattresses
have loops on the sides to ease
this operation. Brush weekly with
a whisk broom so dust won’t set
tle.
A “Dust Proof” mattress cover
made of heavy muslin will protect
it from dust and wear. You can
make these covers with an envel
ope type closing so they can easily
be washed.
Uncle Sam tells us to waste
nothing, to buy only what we need,
to make what wre have last, and
that means everything.
Our grandmothers used leftover
“scraps,” cloth — silk, cotton, and
woolens. Mothers, why not plan a
quilting party for your neighbor
friends? Or interest your teen-age
girl who is enrolled in 4-H Room
Improvement in making a quilt for
her bed.
“The President’s Wreath,” “Rare
Old Tulip,” “A Star that Travel
ed,” “Star and Crescent” are all
beautiful in design and easy to
make. We want to see this art
revived. There is no better time
than now when we must spend
more time at home. Let’s not
squander time.
Who wants a pattern? Write me
at N. C. State College, Raleigh.
The WFA has removed sweet
potatoes and carrots from the list
of dehydrated vegetables reserved
for war needs because prospective
supplies appear sufficient to meet
all requirements.

How Does Your Garden Grow?
Don’t Let It Down Now, Please!
Here are three groups of vege
tables you can still plant, which
will give you a yield for the late
summer, fall and winter:
SOME LONG STEM SORTS
Tomatoes, trained to stakes or
a fence, can be set 24 inches apart.
(These will take the balance of
the season to mature.)
Onion plants should be set 3
inches apart in rows 12 inches
apart.
Sweet potatoes are especially
good for warm, sandy soil. Set 15
inches apart in rows 3 feet apart.
Plant pole beans, snap beans
and limas.
OTHERS THAT GROW QUICKLY
Bush beans — Rows 18 inches
apart, thin to 3 inches.
Beets and carrots — Rows 12
inches apart, thin to 3 inches.
Lettuce — Rows 12 inches apart,
thin to 6 inches.
FOR LATE USE AND STORING
To have these in best condition
just before frost, plant them late
—the figures indicate the number
of days to plant before the usual
frost in your vicinity:
Beets—80.
Carrots—90.
Turnips—75.
Spinach—60.
HINTS FROM THE OLD HAND
Thin out your rows—overcrowd
ing does more liarm than bugs.
So thin out early and give your
plants plenty of room to develop.
Fight pests and diseases—Keep
your garden plot clean-burn dis
eased plants.
For cutworms use a mash you
can buy from your seedman; sprin
kle it around little plants as they
come up. •
In dry weather cultivate with
hoe or rake to make a dust mulch;
water thoroughly part of the gar
den each day.
^hin out your rows—Overcrowd
ing does more harm than bugs.
So thin out early and give your
plants plenty of room to develop.
To save backache, remove weeds
as soon as they appear—keep your
hoe sharp. File edge with a flat
file.
Don’t tramp your garden down.
Don’t walk in it when the soil is
wet. Loosen up hard surfaces with
a hoe.
Feed your plants. Work Victory
fertilizer—2 to 3 lbs. per 100 sq.
ft.—into the soil, along rows of
half-grown plants.
SAY YOU SAW IT IN THE TIMES
From where I sit....
r
6t/ Joe Marsh
Really funny how some little
every-day things can affect the
course of history. For instance,
did you know that one of the
main reasons for the Pilgrims
landing on Plymouth Rock was
because the Mayflower was run
ning out of beer?
Yessir, you can read it in an
original manuscript of 1622, an
account of the settling of Ply
mouth— where it says: .. we
could not now take time for fur
ther search or consideration;
our victuals being much spenty
. . . especially our beer . .
Just goes to show how good
beer has been a part of American
life right from the beginning.
Yes, and it’s had a big part in
making us a tolerant, moderate
people, happy to live and let
live. Because beer is a drink of
moderation and good fellowship.
