THE HAZELHURST NEWS
Waste to Market
Poor Vegetables
| e
If Not Good When They
Leave Ground Never Will
Be Any Better.
Vegetables that are not good when
they leave-the field will never be
any better, according to Paul Work
of the New York State College of
Agriculture. It does not pay to put
poor vegetables on the market. For
the good of both the producer and
the consumer poor stuff should be
plowed under for fertilizer or fed to
live stock and not dumped on the
vegetable market.
Grading Pays.
Careful grading of vegetables pays.
When the produce merchant or the
customer sees poor specimens of veg
etables or fruit in a carload or a
basket, he judges the whole lot to be
poor in quality. The buyer assumes
that there is more of the worst than
he sees, and he therefore uses the
defective specimens to make the
seller lower his price. The cost of
marketing is so great that low grade
vegetables are seldom worth shipping
or taking to market.
Less Storage.
~-Storage of vegetables is less im
portant than formerly because ship
ping under refrigeration has im
proved. The movement of products
to market over long distances and
during all seasons of the year has
reduced the need for long time stor
age. However, the fluctuation of
prices from day to day and the eager
ness of merchants as well as growers
to catch the best prices hss in
creased the use of storage plants for
short periods. Refrigerated storage
is us2d more because it keeps the
vegetables in the best condition.
Burying vegetables in pits and other
forms of outdoor storage are rapidly
going out of use.
Gently Sloping Hill Is
Best Orchard Location
Never plant fruit trees or small
fruits in low places with higher ground
surrounding them. Such places are al
together too frosty to be safe for
fruits. The bhest locaticn is on a gen
tly sloping hill wkere there is a free
movement of air. This, in general,
should be on the eastern, or southeast
ern or southern side of the slope in or
der to take advantage of the protec
tion against western and northwestern
winds. ;
A southern slope has a little disad
vantage in that it warms up a bit
lier in the spring than a northern
‘ and may make a day or two
sence in blozmflng“ time. This,
¢ course, increaseés slightly the haz
ard from frost, but the henefits acerus
ing from the warm, sheltered side of
the hill are much greater than the
danger. ’
Brood Sows Should Be
Given Lots of Water
Brood sows should be given very
little grain for 24 hours after farrow
ing but should have all the water they
desire. The first feed given after far
rowing should be limited in amount
and fed as a thin slop. The amount
fed is increased gradually as the pigs
need more milk, until in 10 or 15 days
the sow is being fed all she will eat.
The brood sow's ration during the
suckling period should be slightly lax
ative and provide for increased milk
production to meet the needs of the
pigs.
Plowing Under Rape
Rape does not take nitrogen from
the air or add anything to the soil
which it does not take from the soil
In making its growth. The advantage
gained in plowing under a crop of
green rape lies in the added vegetable
matter which goes back into the soil,
The decomposition of the vegetable
matter reacts onm soil particles and
liberates plant food so that a better
crop is likely to follow. However, you
have added no fertilizer to the land.

In their ragged regimentals
Stood the old continentals, .
Yielding not,
When the grenadiers were lunging,
And like ball fell the plunging
Cannon shot; »
When the files
Of the isles,
From the smoky night encampment, bore the
banner of the rampant
Unicorn,
And grummer, grummer, grummer rolled the
roll of the drummer
Through the morn!
Then with eyes to the front ell,
And with guns horizontal,
Stood our sires;
And the balls whistled deadly,
And in streams flashing redly
Blazed the fres;
“As the roar
On the shore :
Swept t:e sircng battle-breakers o'er the
green-sodded acres
Of the plain;
And louder, louder, louder, cracked the black
gunpowder,
‘Cracking a-main!
Now like smiths at their forges
Worked the red St. George's
Cannoneers;
And the ‘“villainous saltpetre”
Rung a fierce, discordant meter
Round their ears;
As the swift
Storm-drift,
With hot sweeping anger, came the horse
guards’ clangor
On our flanks;
Then higher, higher, higher, burned the old
fashioned fire
Through the ranks!
Then the bare-headed colonel
Galloped through the white infernal
Powder cloud;
And his broad sword was swinging,
And his brazen throat was ringing,
Trumpet loud:
Then the blue
Bullets flew,
And the trooper-jackets redden at the touch
of the leaden . i

“Lighthorse” Harry Lee’s
Tribute to Washington
There lived during the time of our
first President a distinguished gentle
man affectionately known as “Light
horse” Harry Lee. Lee, a neighbor,
was for twenty-two years on terms
of warmest intimacy with Washing
ton. Lest intelligent Americans be
taken in by Hughes’ “disclosures,”
this writer begs permission to sub
mit the following appraisement of
Washington by General Lee:
Pious, just, humane, temperate and
sincere; uniform, dignified and com
manding, his example was as edifying
to all around him as were the effects
of that example lasting. To his equals
he was kind; to his inferiors conde
scending, and to the dear object of
his affections, exemplary tender. Cor
rect throughout, vice shuddered in his
presence and virtue always felt his
fostering hand; the purity of his
private character gave effulgence to
his public virtues."—Philadelphia
Ledger. ;

Two Sublime Declarations
The tmmortal Declaration of Inde
pendence is really two declarations—
first, a declaration of the rights of
all human beings from the mere fact
of their being human; second, a dec
laration of independence of the Colo
nies from the mother country. People
should not lose sight of these two dis
tinct declarations in our glorious char:

NOT ON GROUND OF
BUNKER HILL FIGHT
(—
But Battle Occurred Near
Where Monument
Now Stands.
Many people think that the Battle
of Bunker Hill consisted of an as
sault by British troops upon an earth
work on top of the hill In Charles
town, where the monument now
stands. That Is not true: or rather,
it 1s only partly true according to
Willard De Lue in the Boston Globe,
There was an earthwork on the green
plot, now a park, on the crest of
Breed's hill—the monument grounds—
and there were attacks made upon It
by the British. But much of the fight-
Ing was done to the northward of the
monument, on ground now covered by
city streets, dwelling houses, schools
and wharves,
One must walk several blocks north
ward to reach the scene of the other
and equally important fighting of that
historic day. When the British troops

landed at Moulton’s point, close to the
present Chelsea bridge, it was clear
that an attempt would be made to
march up the Mystic shore and thus
reach the rear of the redoubt on the
hill, rendering it untenable,
To prevent this about TOO New
Hampshire troops, under Colonels
Stark and Reed, and 120 Connecticut
men took position behind a stone wall
surmounted by a tworail fence that

quarter. mile in the rear of ihe earth
wall on._the hill. Recent surveys
showed this wall to have started near
the north corner of Green and DBunker
Hill streets of today,and to have run
thence down to the beach. Before the
fighting began some of Stark’s men
continued it clear across the beach to
the water's edge; and there it was that
the first attack, that of the British
light infantry column, was made and
repelled by the gallant men of Amos
keag.

Light From Monticello
Ilumined Whole World
Playing over Monticello, which was
the home of Thomas Jefferson, and
lighting up a house on a hilltop 20
miles away, the great gearchlight at
Charlottesville, Va., of 1,380,000,000
candle power, affords an interesting
comparison of the illuminating quali
ties of _mind and matter. -
When Jefferson lived at Monticello
the lucubrations of his great intellect
did something more than pick up &
house at 20 miles. It illuminated the
minds of men all over the world, and
finally touched off the FFrench revolu
tion. Its candle power has never been
determined, but if the Declaration nf.’
Independence, the Bill of Rights, andi
some other contributions that Jeffer
son made to human progress, were
totaled in watts, the greit light at
Charlottesville would pale beside it
as the moon sickens the.feeble star,
Jones and Flag
Congress created the American flag
of Stars and Stripes on June 14, 1777.
On the same day it made Johp Paul
Jones a captain in the infant Amer
fean navy. Jones once said of thig
coincidence: “The flag and 1 ure
twins, born the same hour and the
same day out of the womb of destiny.
We cannot be parted in life or i
death. So long as we can float W¢
shall float together. [f we must sink
we shall. go down as one.” It was (hig
same dauntless fighter who, when
asked to surrender, hurled back at the
proud Briton: “1 have not yet bhegun
to fight.” Although his own vessel
was sinking Jones forced the Britisl
man-o-war to haul down his colors
Freedom's Birth
The signing of the Declaration of [n:
dependence was one of the greatest
events of the world’s history, for It
was the germination of an ideal which
has enabled America to show the
world the road to Utopin—to the
milleneum, -
We should be extremely thankful
for the foresight of our forefathers,
who decided on July Fourth, 1776, to
break a new road to freedom. Amer
