Garden Notes for April.
1. Put the finishing touches
on the seed bed before the seed
are planted, seeing, too, that all
clods are finely pulverized.
2. Try to so arrange that the
cotton will be planted on a seed
bed that has been firmed by a
good rain; loose, cloddy land is a
poor place to put cotton seed.
3. April rains are hard and
beating; as soon as possible after
them run the harrow to prevent
hard crusts forming.
4. April is the month in which
grass and weeds begin to appear;
get them before they get you by
i :_ 11 u i l,:
Keeping uie iiarruwi> anu euiuvators
busy.
5. Keep the garden becoming
by frequent cultivation.
6. Danger of killing frost
will in most sections bo over
this month, and the tender
vegetables should be planted.
7. Plan now what crops shall
take the place of the garden
vegetables that will come off in
May and June, and arrange to
have an all-the-year-round garden.
8. Don't forget the melon
patch, well prepared and heavily
fertilized.
9. The clover seed will soon
be ripe; prepare now to see that
every seed possible is saved for
fall planting.
10. Watch the orchard and
garden for insect pests and don't
let them get a start.
11. Tick eradication work
should begin in all infested
counties this mor.th; get in touch
with the tfneus in charge of j
this work and put your * ounty \
on t he lick-free map.
12. April's the month we

on earth shake yo i in

Cause of Saturday's Storm.
According to weather bureau
experts, abnormal conditions
brought on Saturday's storm,
March being the month for such
phenomena.
The storm developed over
Florida and swept the coast to
Maine. It was centered largely
early in the day over the Virginia
caped, but lost no time in
descending upon New York and
vicinity, preceded by bitter lash- I
ing winds, an hour's uncertainty
as to whether it would be rain
or snow and then a blinding
whirl offtakes which blotted out
the sumigh% and laid over this
section the country a drab i
pa)I spattered with white.

causes, nuiMiig inu 10 ; 1 arnouiu
paid pensioners $286, 17i 50.
The roll in 1915 was decreased

oir late Friday afternoon and
the question of holding the meet
at a later date has not been dec-id*
d.
County Superintendent Carroll
conferred over the telephone
with school principals in various
sections of the county and it was
agreed that it would be best to
ii i rr * *
can me meei oir. in accordance
with this the Southern was notified
that the special train would
not be needed and Governor
Manning and Supt. Swearingen
were notified of the change.
Practically every school in the
county was notified over the
phone that the meet had been
called off. Consequently, none
of the schools were put to the
trouble and expense of going to
Yorkville only to find there
would be no meet.
The aggregate rainfall in York
county for the month of February
as recorded at Winthrop college,
was 3.72 inches Four white
persons were committed to the
State asylum during the month
of March by Probate Judge L. R.

Dunlap, attorney, representing
B. F. Massey, Sr., and John M.
