HOME GARDENS ARE BIG HELP
TO FAMILIES
Millions of American families har
vested from their own gardens last
.-ummer and fall most of the food
they required, with a surplus to can
for the winter. The health rate of
the United States has shown a rapid
improvement since the beginning of
the depression and last year was at
the high point in our history. These
facts are related, and they have a
profound significance for those who
would prophesy.
The movement back to the home
garden has gained momentum and
will enlist in 1933 at least twice as
many families as in 1932, says Seed
Trade News. The remarkable suc
cess last year of community garden
projects sponsored by relief commit
tees and industrial concerns will
cause a great expansion in such
projects, with methods improved by
experience.
But the greatest expansion will be
in back yard gardening among those
who have learned from the example
of good neighbors how much good
health, fun and good food can be
harvested in return for a few spare
hours devoted to gardening.
These millions of new recruits to
gardening are being added to the
army of garden fans which already
existed.
Important as gardening is in sup
plying plentiful, healthful food to all
members of the family, social work
ers assert that it has still more im
portant benefits. For the unemploy
ed and part time employed it offers
something to do in otherwise idle
hours, it stimulates the spirit of self
reliance, and improves the mental
outlook of all who engage in it.
Conditions which have caused the
great swing to gardening in our na
tional emergency have not lessened
its popularity with the devoted gar
den fans for whom it was the princi
pal recreation during prosperity.
There is a general tendency to for
sake more expensive and exciting
forms of amusement in favor of
simpler and more satisfying home
activities, of which gardening is
chief.
Indications are that the future
will see this trend emphasized, rath
er than reversed, and that the next
decade will see this trend emphasized
rather than reversed.

THE JACKSON HERALD, JEFFERSON, GEORGIA
“BRINGING HOME THE
BACON’*
Responsibility for the location in
the Ninth Congressional district of
five of the first 50 unemployment re
lief reforestation camps under the
administration program of President
Franklin D. Roosevelt, is credited to
Congressman John S. Wood, of Can
ton, of the Georgia delegation in
Congress.
The camps already decided upon
will be located in Rabun, T ivvns,
White, Lumpkin, and Fannin coun
ties, and all work done will be in
the government forest reservations
in these counties. Applications for
employment may be filed with the
3tate director of the Reconstruction
Finance Corporation in the state
capitol after April 18th.
Immediately upon passage of the
act by Cfongress creating the conser
vation corps and appropriating $500,-
000,000 for relief of more than 250,-
000 unemployed men, Congressman
Wood, who vigorously supported the
measure and other legislation of the
administration, conferred with offici
als of the agricultural department
and the department of labor and se
cured their pledge of camps for
Georgia.
Pressure was brought to bear up
on administration leaders and his
own district was pointed out as one
of the most important areas in the
South in which forest reserve work
could be carried on. Engineering of
the movement to secure these camps
for his constituents stamps Congress
man Wood as one of the outstanding
representatives in the House of Re
presentatives. Other members of the
Georgia delegation and Senators
George and Russell joined with him
in his efforts, but it was due to his
initative that his district was signal
ly chosen.
The people of the district and the
state-at-large, for that matter, are
peculiarly indebted to Congressman
Wood for this service, which will
mean much towards reducing unem
ployment in this section and the cir
culation of government funds in this
area will stimulate trade. Thanks,
Congressman Wood! That’s “bring
ing home the bacon.”—Gainesville

Colquitt County Arranges Bull
Swapping Day
Moultrie, Ga.—That ancient insti
tution of the south—horse swapping
day at the County Courthouse—is
going to have a sequel in a bull
swapping day.
The Moultrie Chamber of Com
merce is promoting it and the local
packing plant of Swift & Cos., will
lend a hand by giving feed and wat
er to the bulls.
May 6 has been designated “swap
ping day’’ and farmers throughout
Colquitt County have been sent let
ters, asking them to come to town
and trade their stock.
In the Merry Month of May
SO sang Chaucer of his favorite month, because
he knew that all you need for a successful May
~ Day party is good weather. So if "fiery
Phebus,’’ the sun, has dried with his streaming rays :
“the silver drops hanging on the leaves,” to put
Chaucer’s words into more modern English, you
are all set for a merry party on this most auspicious
day of the year.
What sort of a party shall it be? Indoors or out?
Outdoors, of course, if possible. Plenty of flowers,
real or artificial, and a sweet little May Queen who
is not artificial at all, are two of the essentials.
If the party has to be indoors, there are plenty of
paper flowers to be bought or made (they sell you
the "makings” and instructions and everything
nowadays), and it’s fun to mix in as many real
flowers as you can conveniently get, and make
people guess which are the real and which the
artificial ones. The May Queen might exact a for
feit from anyone who guesses wrong.
For an Outdoor Party
If the party is outdoors. Nature will provide the
flowers and the grass and the sunshine and
light wind to cool off the glowing cheeks of
the May Queen’s excited courtiers. She’ll t
provide everything, in fact, except the
Maypole, and she’ll grow that for you,
so that all you have to do is to cut it
down and transport it to wherever you
yant to set it up.
But, stay! There’s one more thing to
be provided for a really successful May
Day party. And that’3 food. Even
Queens and courtiers must eat. In fact,
they’re likely to have pretty lively ap
petites after dancing around a Maypole
and playing tag. So here’s a menu
calculated to meet the most exacting
May Day appetites, and to enable the
Queen and her court to go home satis
fied to a good long night of unbroken
sleep.
