We may travel far inthis world of ours
But no matter where we may roam,
Where's never another place, on earth,
That's quite as good as home.
Bongs are sung of countries far,
Across the realms of space,
But the wanderer knows at eventide,
That home's the only place.
For at home there is always a comfort-
ing song,
And troubles vanish in air,
There's always the fire and smiling face,
Of a loved one waiting there.
Pity the man with all your heart,
On land, or seas, or foam,
Who hasn't that solace and
grace,
The place we call our home.
John H. Fleming August 27, 1930.

LAST OF TRIBE SUE THE
WHITE MAN FOR $1,000,000
The last of the Mohegans are on
the warpath.
They nave fared forth to fight |
what they term encroachment of |
the white man on their hallowed |
incts and they have armed them-
selves wilh the legal weapons of
their pale-faced brethren, instead of |
with the more destructive instru- |
ments of their aboriginal forebear- |
ers,
The Mohegans, or rather their |
descendants, have brought suit in
Superior court aginst the State of
Connecticut, its attorney general,
the city and town of Norwich and
others, demanding $1,000,000 for the
alleged desecration of a small Indian
burial ground near there in which
the y of the great Sachem, Chief
Uncas, supposedly is buried.
Edyth B. Gray and others, who de-
scribe themselves as heirs of the
great Uncas, charge the defendants
with preventing them from continu-
ing to use the burial ground as a
cemetery, that monuments there have
been cut up into lots.
All told there are not more than
100 descendants of the tribe about
which James Fenimore Cooper wove
such fantastic and romantic tales.
None of these are full-blooded, virtu-
ally all being white-mixed. They
live on what they call “the reserva-
tion,” a small plot of land at Mohe-
gan, on the west bank of the Thames
river four miles from Norwich. In
reality, it is not a reservation for it
is not under federal or state super-
vision.
The burial ground, involved in the
suit, is a 16-acre plot. Tt is studded
with several gravestones, one of
which marks the last rest-
ing place of Uncas. The noted
chieftain's grave monument is about
seven feet high. Across the face
of one side is'the inscription “Uncas.’
The obelisk has an in his-
tory. Its base was laid in 1823 in
the presence of President Andrew
Jacl ad a iow members of
cabinet, rneyed stage-
coach to Norwich —Y for the
occasion. Then, it seemed, the Nor-
wichites forgot about finishing the
memorial until the fall of 1840 when
He Hagey to complete it was col-
ed at a Harrison-Tyl
nid yler campaign
Finally, on July 4, 1842 the obe-
lisk was raised over the base.

PLAN NOW FOR EARLY
SPRING HOME GARDEN
Home gardeners are making pla
now for the coming season. § pans
plans include drawings showing the
shape, size and planting arrange-
ment of the garden spot to be used
this year.
A complete garden should contain
at least 25 kinds of vegetables. |
Where only a limited area is avail- |
able intensive perishable crops that
are unaally high priced on the mar-
ket should be grown. In this up
axe spinach, lettuce, radishes, Boots.
carrots, and other vegetables that |
require little space. For the small
garden potatoes, cucumbers, sweet
gorn. and other crops covering a
large space are not recommended.
Asparagus is the earliest vegeta-
ble. Ffty to 75 roots or crowns are
sufficient for a family of five. Rhu-
barb is a close second for earliness.
The old clumps should be divided in
the fall every 5 to 7 years. Both
arops are heavy feeders and neea
ral fer! tion, e iall
witroren specially with
rly spinach can be plan
broadcast early in March on r et
bed prepared in the fall, Lettuce
ean he handled the same way, says
Ross. Perennial or winter onions are
another spring delicacy. They are
earlier than onions from sets. Onion
sets, however, can be planted as
soon as the soil is prepared in the
spring.
Early peas, beets, carrots, and rad-
Ishes are cther vegetables which can
be seeded early. The peas do not
have to be thinned, but the others
require thinning. Thin the beets to
or 3 inches and later use every
lant for greens. Thin the carrots
or 3 inches apart and the radishes
to 1 to 2 inches.
