As the oldest of seven girls, I often felt like a hired boy as I had no brothers and so was expected to help outdoors a lot.

One day I was told to help with this job on our lower farm. So, I walked to the Conestoga River nearest our home, put on my skates and glided for over half a mile around the bends in the river. I stayed close to the shore because the ice was creaking and groaning under my weight. I wouldn’t do something so foolish today.

USDA last month quarantined parts of California’s Los Angeles and stockings on top. These were held up by garters fastened to a bodice. If we were lucky, my sisters and I were allowed to dress in front of the round stove downstairs. Oc casionally, we got too close to the stove-ouch! Also, I must not forget the sledding on our steep hill in the meadow. This year I expect Christmas day will be rather quiet around here as only our two youngest children will be here. But, the following weekend will bring droves of relatives. We expect about forty people on Saturday and the same number on Sunday. I’d better put all the extra boards in the oak and walnut tables. 48” High-Volume Portable Cooling Fan AILI USDA quarantines Santa Clara Co.

A certificate or permit must be obtained from USDa before fruits, vegetables, and other regulated articles originating in the quarantined areas can be moved interstate. Hawkins said federal, state, and county plant protection officials have applied 600 bait stations per square mile throughout the areas to eradicate the infestation. Bait stations are small applications of an insect attractant-pesticide mixture. Officials also have made limited ground applications of pesticide spray in areas surrounding the places where the flies were detected. Hawkins said quarantine regulations will remain in effect until eradication is achieved.
