FRIDAY, DECEMBER 15, 1922. i A Chicago judge claims that murders are eight times more frequent in the United Slates than in Canada. He might have added that murders are probably tifty times as great in the United States as in China. As a matter of fact, the United States ranks right up at the top in the number of homicides per capita. Not very much of a recommendation for our Christian civilization, it seems. Canada, as England, does not deal very generously with murderers, nor does China. We are entirely too gen tie in our punishment of those who destroy human life. This may not be tho only cause for our unenviable rec- i <?rd in the matter of murders, but it is our chief factor. , i A _ ] I t t < Our cat says only dead men make 1 oo mistakes. ^ * i Our cat says try to he just in your a judgment of others. t ? i Our cat says speak gently and you will be heard further. 1 * <- ^ Our cat says go forth singing, even if you find it necessary to return with f tears. ] c * * J Our cat says it is only a short 1 step between success and failure. cat sayaj^hungry men do not Us-_ ^ ' * * * ( Our cat says a Koon collard, cooked , with bacon is good eating. Insects and Winter Plowing Winter plowing is as much a garden problem as it is a farm problem, and when done properly it will add very greatly to the profit of succeeding crops. There is no single place on the farm where insects are so troublesome or so abundant as in the garden. One cf the recommendations for insect control is winter plowing. If the gardeen is broken up ar\d left rough through a few hard freezes, millions of insects will be frozen and destroyed. Not only that, but much weed seed and other troublesome pests will be gotten out of the way. As a rule we think of plowing the garden during the first three or four warm days 1 in the springtime. This is too late to ; get best results, us already stated. That is a job that should be done in ' the fall of the year, except, of course, in the case of those parts of the gar- 1 den that are in perennial or winter 1 crops. Aside from breaking the garden soil, all rubbish should be cleared up ' a:ong the fence both on the inside and on the outside. This is another 1 step toward insect control. I Any manure that is to be used in 1 the- garden next year should be put out this fall and permitted to decay 1 on the soid or in it if put out before ! the breaking is done. By all means sec that no water stands on the gar- ' dea. If these precautions are taken now, 1 next spring wr.en the first warm days come, things will be in mighty fine shape to start the be.it garden you have ever had. And perhaps there is not a single year in history when a garden will count for more than next year's garden will. All rubbish and refuse remaining or. the garden following the crop? of the year shouid be cleaned off thor oughly and burned. This will help to control both disease and insect pests. Such diseases as melon leaf blight, ] black leg of cabbage, and others will live on through the winter in diseased 1 plants and refuse if these are not de- ' stroyed. This rubbish unless destroy- j I'd accumulates very ragidply and , sooner or later will make it next to | impossible to grow successful garden crops. ? ] Mrs. Margaret Hill McCarter, well- ( known writer and politician, has been . appointed a special commissioner by the governor of Kansas to investigate the illiteracy in that state. j May 29, 1922, was the 186th anniversary om the Hrth of Patriek Henry. New England Still Abounds in Game Boston, Dm. 14.-?"AWat tkfe time," as the old fafWSi 1/ alnUHMs used to say, a frequently occurring paragraph in New England country newspapers reads somewhat as follows: "The annual game supper was held last night. There was a large attendance and the hunters provided a bounteous repast." Although the wild turkey which set the style for Thanksgiving dinners on the occasion of the Pilgrims' first Thanksgiving Day three hundred years ago has disappeared from New Kngland woods, three centuries ??f UiiMi ??<? tiritk At*normo titea O 1* U1 IIUIIIHIK **im H""" '..V J from exterminated the wild . the forest in this section Even the immediate vicinity of BoBt??' deer and ruflfed grouse casionally, and squirrels, hare and foxes are regular inhabitants o burban woodland. The pheasant, not I native *.n, some years ago, has New Massachusetts and southern NI Hampshire. Geese and an abund ance of waterfolw pause on New England lakes and streams in their m grations. Only in Maine does the moose persist, but bears, common in that state are still found also in the remot sections of the mountain country in New Hampshire, Vermont and western Massachusetts. U lldcats shot or trapped in considerable num- j bers every season. In the fur-bearing category racoons, s un 8 .* I ir.uskrats are still plentiful, and in the wilder districts mink and otter ure not infrequently found. The wolves are gone; it is only rarely that a panther is reported, andI then with doubtful authenticity, and lam-building beavera now are few. That the rapidly increasing number of hunters has not more seriously depleted the supply of game in New England is due largely to conservaion measures. For many years all he states in this section have enforced as strictly as possible the c ~ed ieason provisions of the game laws, md in recent open seasons the bag imits on various classes of game ,irds and animals have been made ncreasingly smaller. Licenses also ire required of all hunters, and >n he case of non-residents high fees ire demanded. The game supper nowadays is oxen the sharing by an individual or a -roup of hunters of the results of a lay's sport. But in a few villages in he heart of the woods it takes on a Teater importance. Teams of vi agers, fifty to a hundred on a side, ire pitted against each other in a mnt from daybreak to dark. The men go into the woods singly, each (o his favorite hunting ' When all have returned at each fcenm are coeW"*^^ cfiB Dhe having the smalls^ amount of game pays all the expenses Incidental to serving an elaborate meal in which the meat courses range from squirrel pie to venison steak.
