[”IY THI OLD TIMIS *
From E, E. Morrow,
Modesta, Calif.: I remember
when the Mississippi River was
the west boundary of our farm
near DeSoto, Wisconsin. There
was a large camp of Indians
by the river and every spring
and fall the sky was dark with
wild ducks and geese
migrating north and south.
The Indians shot many of
these birds and piled them in
heaps till the feathers dropped
off easily.
The pioneer log one-room
cabin was in good shape, with
a large fireplace and a great
iron kettle. When a fat hog
died it was cooked in the kettle
and ashes added to make
liquid soap for wash day and
the old hand scrubboard.
Baths were taken in a wood
tub with rain or snow water
and in winter we waded
through snow to the fresh air
toilet with frosty seats. Winter
mornings the water in the kettle
on the kitchen stove would be
frozen solid.
The first summer dad used
a hand cradle scythe to cut the
grain and two handfuls of
straw twisted together made
bands to hold the grain in
bundles. The next year a team
drawn reaper with a sickle bar
and revolving blades pushed
the grain off a metal floor in
bundles to be tied with hand
made bands. In the fall, dad
would take the team and
wagon and haul a load of
grain to the mill run by a
large water wheel.

According to Miss Margie
Mclntyre, Extension Service
home economist, an occasional
sprinkling of about one-fourth
teaspoon of salt in your shoes
will absorb moisture and keep
your feet drier.

SOAK DOWN
When applying water to your
shrubs, apply enough water to
soak the soil down to the bottom
of the planting hole. According
to Gerald E. Smith, horticulturist
with the University of Georgia
Cooperative Extension Service,
watering just the surface of the
soil is of little benefit.
