Bore a full crop and now about half 
the bushes are full of bud and bloom 
for a second, I have seed only from 
pods having four and five beans. Use 
the smaller pods for cooking. Hope to 
save plenty of seed from second crop. 
Am fairly sure of enough of the dried 
beans for winter use. Canned all the 
green snap beans we can use. 
The one crop Butter Bean bushes have 
been pulled out and left on: the ground 
for mulch and their space occupied with 
the late tomatoes and _ sweet basil. 
Expect to follow the cantaloupes with 
winter lettuce and wherever there is 
room, winter onions and radishes. 300 
onion plants set early in March gave 
us all the green onions we could eat 
and the mature ones will last us for 
some time yet. 
So you see what a physically handi- 
capped old woman can do in raising 
food under difficulties here in the South.. 
An old couple in ordinary aoa should 
do much better. 
In addition to the vegetables, Ruth, 
our beloved milk goat freshened with 
kids about New Year. For two months 
they needed most of her milk, When 
they were weaned at eight weeks, she 
gave rather more than a gallon a day. 
Is down to two quarts a day now, and 
apt to freshen in late fall, less than a 
year apart. Ralph had the buck kid 
slaughtered on shares and that gave us 
quite a bit of fresh meat. I think 
Brownie, the doe kid will freshen in 
early spring. 
When feed prices soared We culled 
the hens down to six. One of them is 
either setting or running with chicks 
most of the time leaving five layers, 
which give us all the fresh eggs we can 
use. And we are safe from bombs. No 
use talking about preventing World 
‘War III. All the prophycies concerning 
it have not yet been fulfilled. Many of 
them are tied in with the geological 
disturbances likely to occur in the next 
few years, The prophets agree that 
the present civilizations will be destroy- 
THE YELLOW SHEETS 










ed. Atomic and Bacterial warfare 
do that. Big cities will be s 
ducks for bombs, but these little cross 
roads settlements, where from one to 
three acres is just a nice size build 
lot, it would cost a fortune to bo 
them. So I think old people and wido 
with small fixed incomes, and childr 
to raise had better get out of ee cities 
before se is too late.
