There is still time to plant all the garden crops in this section, even if you have not aready plowed _your ground, say specialists of tie U. S. de- partment of agriculture. It is now, in fact, the best safe planting period for this region. It is time to plant peas, beets, pars- 2ips, and similar crops. ' 1f you start at once there is still time to make two rlantings of peas at intervals of ten davs, and you will have peas for at least a month after they come into bearing. It is not too early to make the first planting of string beans. Beans, beets, Brussels sprouts, cab- bage, carrots, corn, kale, lettuce, leeks, onions, parsnips, parsiey, peas, pota- toes, radishes, salsify, spinach turnips should all be lanted as as the ground can be made ready Tomato plants may be set in a few days. Lima beans, both pole and bush, should not be planted for about ten da: The heat-loving piants, such as peppers, eggplants, muskmel- ons, watermelons, squash and cucum- hers, should not be set or planted un- 11 the weather is warm and the soil well warmed up. Planting may be done on light, warm soils at least a week sooner than on heavy soils in frosty pockets, hence the = gardener must be guided in making plantings by the location and character of h's soil. CHIEF STANTON HOME FROM WASHINGTON CONFERENCE International Fire Engineers Postpone Jacksenville Meeting Indefinitely. Chief Howard L. Stanton of the lo- cal fire department has returned home after attending a conference of the In- ternational Association of Fire Engi- neers in Washington last Thursday. The conference decided to postpone indefinitely the October meeting of the internatignal association which was to have been heid in Jacksonville, Fla., this action being taken in view of the war, the engineers being of the opinion that their place at the pres- ent time and for the remainder of the war is at home at the head of their ready to protect lives . _A conference on the matter with President Wilson which was expected to have heen held Fri- day morning was delaved owing to the late arrival of telegrams from en- gineers unable to be present. If the war continues it is feared that the railroads, by October, would be unable to provide freight accommoda- tions for the numerous exhibits that Zo to make up a successful convention 2nd also that the absence of promi- Tent chiefs who would be unable to leave their home cities, would spell failure for the convention. Attorney Cassidy’s Farm Leased. Attorney \John H.

It is understood that the men interested in the enterprise have considerable and intend rais- ing the hogs on the western plan, which is to let them roam oves con- siderable territory.. There may be as many as 1,000 hogs, it is said. Dairymen Are Interested. Connecticut dairymen taking considerable interest in soy beans as a food crop.

J. F. Cobb. In commemoration of Mothers' daf, Rev. Joseph F. Cobb, pastor of the Church of the Good Shepherd, spoke very Interestingly on the topic, Our Debt to the Mothers, at the morning service on Sunday. In part Rev. Mr. Cobb spoke as follow: Today is the anniversary of the day when the pepple of this land are ask- cd to give some thought of their moth- er. If living to visit her if possib to let her know that she is loved and revered. If not possible to visit her and tell her of that regard, to write her a loying letter and let her know that her children are thinking of her. If she is not living amid the earth- Iy scenes, to show the reverence and regard for her memory by some lov- ing act. Mother is entitled to the greatest love and honor. It is agreed that the virtues of a true mother are purity, beauty, love, charity and faithfulness. The ‘men and women who have reached the age of maturity must know, if they think at all or observe at all about the love and care of their parents, how the mother heart follow- ed them from the hours of birth on through all the dayvs and vears. Note now that mother is the heart of the home. It is wel said that the father may be the %ead of the home but the mother is the heart. The char- acter of the home depends more on the influence of the mother than on anything else. Let us note again that the mother is the hope of the nation. It was said long ago “the hand that rocks the cradle is the hand that rocks the world."” Once more we note that the mother is in a large measure the support of the chadch.. We owe a debt to mothers that can never be fully paid. The nation is en- deavoring to make some return as there is quite a general simultaneous expression throughout the land of the love, and gratitude that men, women and children as well as the nations owe to their good mothers.
