Not only did the women of the Con-
federacy farm, spin, weave, knit, but they
had shoes made for the soldiers, for them
selves and the negroes.
On every large plantation there was a
tannery, and here not only cow skins,
and coon skins, and dog skins were
tanned, but even the dear domestic cat
was called on to contribute her skin to
make the softest, strongest, most pliable
of gloves. Besides the shoes, and socks
and coats and pants and underclothes,
there was still another untried field Of
labor, which the women of the Confed-
eracy essayed and in which they succeed
ed wonderfully. This was the making of
hats which they pleated of wheat and rye
straw, of wire grass, of shucks, and in

The women taxed their ingenuity in

They made blacking out of decoction

They kindled fires with flint and steel
in place of matches, which, with many
other luxuries, were only to be had by
running the blockade.
The women of the Confederacy, in
place of steel pens, used goose quills,
dipped in ink made of SCOT and molasses.
There was paper mill in the State, but
