Easter Message
Given Kiwanians
Christ's example of sacrifice for
what He knew was rifiht should
strengthen us to maintain an un
swerving stand for our principles,
the Rev. W. A. MacArthur told
Hosoburg Kiwanians Tuesday noon
t the Hotel Umpqua in an Easter
message.
Even if we think of Christ only
i i man, Easter should Inspire
us with the thought that here is
a man who did what He knew was
right in spite of, and with a know
ledge of, the consequences, the
Hcv. Mr. MacArthur continued.
As he talked, the speaker
sketched in chalk a scene in which
the empty tomb of Christ was re
vealed with -an open doorway.
We are all guilty of compromis-

give us the inspiration to stand
fast by what we think is right.

Rejected, Undersized Arabian Colt Finds Home
Fine flowers and tender, tasty
vegetables cannot be grown in soil
that is poor or which has not been
properly conaiuonea. conuiuoniiiK
may mean only spading and raking
but usually means adding elements
which are lacking in the native soil
plus proper irrigation and cultiva
tion. Most authorities agree that there
is one best method of preparing the
soil for planting, that which is
called "trenching." It takes a 1 i t
tle more time and muscle, but it
will give you the best possible re
sults in growing either flowers or
vegetables.
The first step is to dig a trench
two spade widths wide and about
ten inches deep across one side of
the garden. Throw this earth in the
wheelbarrow and carry it to the
other side of the garden. Next
spread a layer of good, strawy
cow manure over the bottom of the
trench you have made.
The depth of the manure should
he not less than two inches and
three or four inches is better. It is
cheaper to buy manure by the yard
or load rather than by the sack.
We on the Tactile coast nave
plenty of barnyard manure avail
able. The incorporation of cow ma
nure with the soil Is primarily for
the purpose of adding badly needed
organic material (humus) to our
western soil, which is mainly com
ptvd of disintegrated rock. The
manure also adds some fertilizer
value to the soil and has a bene
ficial bacterial action.
A second trench is now dug be
side the first, and the soil removed
is thrown on top of the manure in
the first trench. This process is re
peated across the "arden until you
reach the other side where the soil
removed from the first trench is
used td fill the last.
As the spading is done, the soil
should be turned over and the
clods broken with the spade.. This
will be easy to do if the soil is in
the right state of moisture for dig
ging. Clay or adobe should never
be touched except when just
barely moist. In no case should
soil be worked when wet enough
i to form a mudball when squeezed
j in the fist. Heavy soil may have
j to be treated with gypsum and ma
' nure several times before it
: reaches a perfect state of tilth.
But let no one tell you it cannot
be done.
The clods that remain after
spading should be broken up or re
moved with a good sturdy Iron
rake. The soil is then raked back
and forth the fsS! depth of the rake
teeth until you nave a smooh sur
face of fine soil. Stay at this task
until the surface is just as level
as you can possibly make it, fin
ishing up by using the back part
of the rake to smooth up the sou
and fill in all the low spots.
The best time to plant the seeds
is immediately after preparing tye
seed bed, while the soil is moist.

army cot alongside Skippy's cor
ral. Each of his 37 employes takes
turns looking after the colt's needs.
Barnard's bookkeeper, Mrs. Merry
Norman, prepares Skippy's for
mulamilk, limewater and syrup.
Skippy, who stands five hands
high and weighs 75 pounds, is ex
ercised daily by volunteers who
lead him carefully through traffic.
Barnard said Skippy was born
on a ranch in suburban Puente.
Skippy's mother refused to nurse
him and the ranch owners decided
he must be destroyed. Barnard
learned the sad story when he
drove out to select a saddle horse
recently for his ranch in nearby
Sherman Oaks.
"I forEot the saddle horse and
bought Skippy," said Barnard.
"The little guy kind of gets you."
Barnard says he plans to take
the colt out to his ranch in about
two weeks. "Meanwhile he stays
right her where he'll be safe."
