PAGE TWO-A GARDENS OLD and NEW (By Lucy W. Nicholson) .~ Work began in earnest on fall . gardens during this past month, . August, and the sowing of seeds ~ will continue through September. ~ Fall gardens have had much ~ more attention of late years, as }ifl’ll'deners “have found that they . are repaid for every lick of work .by having quantities of fresh Veg - etables for the table far into the ~ winter. Of 'course, all gardenersl . think their own home-grown veg . etables are better than those they ¢ buy! Now, as to whether they . really are or not, that is another . Question—if you think so, why’ . you are the judge! { & The gardep. plot was Cither, ~ plowed or turned upside down ~ With a fork, rows laid off, manure . put into the furrows for the seeds.l . beds made for turnip salad, cab . bage and collards set out—all | made in modish vitamin design! E The Rule of Two , ~ Snap beans are usually planted * until about the middle of August ~ but as the season is considered a ~ week or so late this year, perhaps ~this week will not be too late to . plant. Beans are ready to use in ;& om 6 to 9 weeks—many garden ~ ers count on 6 weeks. . Two is the magic number in . planting beans—have rows two ~ feet apart, plant bean seeds two _ inches deep and two inches apart. . You, too, ‘wil* have beans! - Recipe From France A French bride of this yearl brought the following recipe to America, her new home: Put snap beans in a heavy aluminum steam er, slice a tomato into the beans as the only moisture, salt, cook slowly until the beans are tender. Put butter or white sauce over them as you serve, Other Fall Vegetables ~ Beets may be planted from March to- September and are ready to @at in from 6 to 11 weeks. As they like deep, rich soil, put in plenty of manure in the drills before you scatter the seeds thinly along, covering the seeds about an inch deep. When the beets are up two or three inches, thin out your stand to four or five inches apart. The plants you pull up may be reset into another row, pinch off a small part of the bottom of the root. As a relish, beets served with a sprinkle of sugar and vinegir are appetizing but served ‘hot with butter and salt taste somewhat like corn on the cob. Di@ you ever have grown people tell you when you were quite young that eating carrots would make you pretty? Maybe that's the reason you've acquired a taste for them. Children Like Carrot “Brooms” . Raw carrots, washed and scrap ed, cut at the large end up into thin slivers look somewhat like brooms. The children like to sweep up the rice on their plates with these ‘“brooms,” and in a short while the plates are swept clean and even the “brooms” have dis appeared. The carrots garnish platters of sliced tomatoes and portions of celery. Battle Creek Salad Mock salmon or Battle Creek salad has no fish in it—it may jook the part and taste good but it is made of raw carrots. Wash and scrape raw carrots, mix\ with 4 much smaller portion of soda ‘cracker crumbs, chopped celery, ‘and cooked salad dressing. Over the top put minces hard-boiled €epEs. Serve on crisp lettuce leaves. A Salad Ingredient . Borders in the garden may be made of radishes. Be sure to make -the place rich as they should grow off quickly to be desirable. In from 3 to 6 weeks after the seeds lare in, crisp red rddishes are on _your table. Radishes may be used sas a relish—they are also orna “mental on the table—they look lg'ood enough to eat! Then radishes _gliced very Win, give a dash to salads—vegetable, potato, salimon ~and tuna fish, and even chicken salad. - .~ And speaking of salads suggests lettuce—but as it takes from 2 to 3 months: for lettuce to be ready _ for use, it is hoped you have been _ planting lettuce since March and _up to September. In the meanwhile, plan for ~ plenty of-turnip salad, rape, mus ~ tard, and spinach. It is difficult to . plant too much of these leafy . vegetables, if you are inttrested ~in your health. ~ After the salad bed has been ~ turned, pulverized. and fertilized, Zs;; mix sand with your small seeds . and broadcast the mixture and ~ tamp in. - | gy Of course this salad patch is an . invitation to flocks of birds—you . wonder how enough seeds are . Jest to make even a show of . green. However, before long the . salad plants are up and as thick . and luxurious as any green velvet . carpet. Later, in the winter, rab ts may hop in to help you en the greens. So while you are anting, put in enough for your =“household and for the birds and ¥ rabbits. © One good thing about the salad . bea is that it keeps green if vou ~ cut off the leaves rather than the . whole plant or the bud, and by a . little resting of the patch, the ‘» rreans come back bigger and bet- Methodist Churches of ~ Circuit Will Sponsor * Barbecue on Thursday | The Methodis; churches of the Athens circuit will sponsor a bar pecue at Oconee Helghts next Thursday, with plates being served ‘between the hours of one and eight - o . ’;‘e price of the plates will be ‘3sc and the proceeds will go to the ‘i erence claims.

It's as hard to envision this wvast, far-flung attack as it is to com prehend the seriousness ana spread of the Great Drouth itself. The weather used to be just the farmer’s hard luck—unless Wash ington happened to get his freight rates reduced or lent him a little more money so, seed. The present unparalleled drouth, threatening in terference with recovery and bac ly frightening an administration sworn to raise farm prices by a threat of food prices fa, too high, is being handled on an entirely different basis. At least 750,000,000 will be spent ,betore the federal effort is over ‘and we'll be seeing the most enor ‘mous operation of food and feea }conservatlon of all times. Look at the drouth map to see ‘the area involved—lo 76 “emergen cy counties”, in 22 states, including all counties in Kansa§, Nevada the ‘Dakotas, Oklahoma and Utah, and 341 “secondary” drouth counties, Nearly half the counties in = the United States! Roosevelt in Charge I Our great so-called federal bu reaucracy is meeting a mighty test of its flexibility, ingenuity, speed ang adaptability to new em ergency conditions.. Several agen ¢fgs in the -“alphabet soup” are.in volved. e The extensive new powers grant ed the New Deal by congress are | coming in handy, not only for‘ farmers, but for the rest of us whose pocketbooks are affected by | many current weasures of conser-. lvation and prevention. The man in charge of all this is President Roosevely himself, mak- | ‘ing the chief decisions and allocat- | ing the $525,000,000 voted by con )gress for drouth relief. Here’s the get-up below him: w | The AAA and department of agriculture unde, Secretary Henry A. Wallace are buying mlillions v cattle and sheep to be removed from the commercial market and ‘joining in a huge feed-forageé pro gram of conservation and distr:- 'butlon necessitated by the fact that the most desperate problem fs pr marily one of animat food rather than human food. Livestock left on farms won't have much more than 50 per cent of normal feed requirements and ioompulsory rationing is a possi -1 bility. The Federal Emergency Relief administration is enlarging grants to states for water and food relief, expanding its work program in drouth states, and launching a great campaign which will employ tens of thousands of distressed I‘rural folk at rooting In the fielas ' for stubble and weeds badly ned }ed for forage. i Reserve Being Built ' Its federal surplus relief corpora ltion kills and cans 50,000 head of cattle a day to build up a reserve for nheedy unemployed against win ter, when meat prices will scoot up, And to protect the rest o us from even higher prices which that re serve will prevent. | The ¥Farm Credit association, avorking with $100,000,000 from the congressional grant—which isn't enough—llends for seed, feed, sum er fallowing, etc, while trytng to seé that the government pays enough for cattle t¢ protect its ex isting loans. « . The Citizens' Conservation Corps hag turned its tools to drouth work I in a program for which it alreaay has received $20000,000° =« , The Commodity Credit Corpor ation is advancing ~ $10,000,000 ot RFC money to finance purchase and orderly holding and merketing of hides, easing the present market glut, averting a subsequent certain shortage, and turning some over toj FSRC for processing into reliet] shoes. ; ’ But to get a more detailed pic- l ture of the activities directed from !

Benefit Payments Huge Benefit payments this year will be about $500,000,000, mostly in drouth states, and it confidently predicts a big inerease in national farm income for 1934 degpite the drouth, the impoverishment of no body knows how many farmers, and the uncertainty about next vear.
