These beautiful, balmy days, after such dreary ones, make a fellow feel like doing something for himself or somebody else. We have ventured to ‘ ‘garden’ ’ any way; it is a pleasure that we couldn’t put off any longer. Like Bill Arp,I like very much to work in the garden. As yet, no corn has been plant ed in this vicinity, but probably will this week. From what I can gather, a large acreage will be de voted to corn this season, and the preparation of the land so far has Deen above an average.
