A great civilization.

By Joseph

About 7,000 years ago farmers began to move and live into the area between the Tigris and

Euphrates rivers which the ancient Greeks called Mesopotamia which means the “land between the

Rivers” in modern times is roughly in the same area as Iraq. Life has very hard work there. The

Weather was hot and dry and the rivers would flood but the land was fertile when looked after

Properly. Gradually in the south in the land of Sumer: a great civilization grew.

Outcome of labour

By J.A.K Murray

Once upon a time in the future at 1800’s A.D. a farmer was deceivingly shot in the head and wished that after he died his family would keep on being prosperous but he was afraid because his sons were lazy and also careless. He yodeled them to his bedside “there is a great treasure in the fields” he gasped his last breath. After his death his sons carefully dug everywhere in the fields. They found no treasure which made them frustrated but since they “plowed” so much they had an extraordinary crop that year that they survived comfortably. Then they realized that the treasure is the outcome of their own labour.

Japanese beetles

By Joseph

Japanese beetles are nasty pests that plague U.S.A gardens and in Canadian places which were accidentally imported in a root of a plant in a nursery in the 1916. Females lay eggs in midsummer. Grubs hatch in about two weeks and they have a comma-shaped body. They eat plants and then enter the pupa in late May or early June. Adults come out of the soil near the end of June then eat plants. Gardeners try to control them with baited traps. U.S.D.O.A (United States Department of agriculture) has released several parasites to attack Japanese beetles before they grow into adults.
