During cooler periods set the mower to cut the grata at l to 1% Inches. When the temperature nears 90 degrees, sdjust the mower to cut st 1% to 2 Inches, the longer grass reduces evaporation of moisture, holds down soil temperatures snd protects the stalks and root systems from blistering sun rays. If a catcher is not used, mow the lawn counter-clockwise Mowers throw clippings to the left Into the path of the "next time around." Chopped finer by the second going over the clippings fall out of sight among the roots. Eggs ibould be gathered at least s g day and should be dettte market as frequent ty ah possible.

Telling Thne One * simple method of telling time from the stars makes use of the group of stars in the Great Dipper, known as the "pointers." These are the two stars in the bowl of the dipper which show the direction of the north star, Imagine a clock dial, the north star at the center and the pointers, the hour hand, and read the apparent time, which can be done to the nearest quarter hour. To this add the number of months since Jan. 1, also to the nearest quarter. Multiply by two and subtrsct the product from 16-% (or, if the product is greater than that, from 40-%). The result is the time in hours p.m. If it is more than 12, subtract 12 and you have the time a.m. This is local time, fast or slow at standard time, depending on whether you are east or west of the central meridian of your time cone.
