The Girls 4-H Club Camp will be
held at Thyatira July 11-12-13.
Demonstrations and conferences in
health, food preservation, art in the
home, table etiquette, making of
yeast breads, music and recreation
have been planned. Parents and
friends of the girls are invited to
visit the camp on Friday, July 13.

The State Camp in Athens will be
held July B—August 14, which will
be known as far;.i and home week.
Farm men, women, boys and girls
from all over tho state will be in
Athens during this week. As many
club members*as possible should be
gin making plans right away to at
tend tljis camp, if possible.

Give your garden frequent and
shallow cultivations, in order to pul
verize the surface soil and prevent
evaporation of water, which is es
sential for plant growth. It is often
the lack of available moisture and
not hot weather of mid-summer
which causes garden failures.
* * * •
The Mexican bean beetle may be
controlled by using magnesium, ar
senate. This material may be used
either as a dust or liquid. It is ex
tremely important that the under
side of the leaves be thoroughly cov
ered with poison. The under side of
the leaves is where the insects feed.
The squash bug is well known to
every grower of pumpkins and
squash. For the control of this in
sect, shift the garden patch from
one part of the farm to another from
year to year. Keep close watch over
the crop, and kill first adults to ap
pear in the spring. Also, destroy
brown egg masses on under side of
leaves from day to day. If pieces of
boards are placed on the ground
near the plants, the adult bugs will
hide under them at night. The trap
should be examined each morning,
and the bugs killed.

Black-leaf 4 used at the rate of
one teaspoonful to one gallon of
water will control the red spider that
attacks many flowering plants dur
ing hot, clear weather.

Next to being clever enough to se
lect, design, and make the clothes we
need, comes the ability to keep thorn
in good condition. Hang garments
on hangers tas soon as they are tak
en off. Special covers are useful to
project garments hanging for some
time. Old sheets, night gowns, or
cheap prints may be used. Cut the
material twice the length of the gar
ment, plus a few extra inches.
Slope the top like the dress hanger.
Make an opening at least one yard
long, so the garments may be easily
removed; allow a small opening for
the hooks. Sew snaps on front op
ening.
* * .* *
All-day canning short courses with
each Home Demonstration Club and
4-H Club in the county have been
planed for the months of July and
August. The regular schedule of
the clubs will not be followed on
this account. Every club member
should take advantage of the short
course, and make a special effort to
be present at the meeting of her
club, as it will be impossible to have
more than one such meeting during
the summer.

every day until this week.
