As Old Doc Lemmon says,
“You sure can tell the difference
between the first spring day and
the first day of spring.” so do
not let these beautiful days
cause you to be too enthusiastic
in planting your garden.
In a day or two, if the warm
sunshiny days continue, the early
sweet peas can be planted in a
sheltered location and in very
rich soil, if you wish profusion
and perfection of bloom.
This is good clean up and
burning weather. Gather up the
bits of old wood not cleaned up
from the wood wagon and burn
them. Prunings from the fruit
trees can be burned also, if cut
up in small pieces and put on a
hot fire.
Plan your garden walks and
put them in if you are in a
location where the soil is well
drained.
Spading for the vegetable and
annual flower garden can be
done and a quantity of well rot­
ted barn manute thoroughly in-
orporated in the soil.
It is still not too late to enjoy
the forced blooms from flower­
ing shrubs. To the uninitiated
the bloom of the shrub is more
apparent now than several weeks
ago.

Descended from the sun’s energy, milk,
like the sun itself, is a reservoir from
which man may draw infinite strength.
The baby is enabled by milk to take its
fii-st grasp of life; the growing child
drinks in vitality with his milk; the young
man and woman are sustained by milk in
their early struggles for a foothold; the
mature man and woman rely on milk for
stamina. A universal food, milk is at its
pure best when labeled . . .
