What to Eat.
Meat soffle may serve as the piece de
resistance of the luncheon. Since, as
a rule, this and similar mixtures are
we'll seasoned, one meat Is about as
good as another for foundation, un-
less chicken is used. The odds and ends
of the roast, or of steak or chops, or
even soup meat, should be run through
the meat chopper with thin slice or
two of boiled ham, one Of boiled tongue
and one or two Of bologna sausage.
The last can be obtained from nearby
butcher. If they cannot be had lit
tie homemade sausage and a thin
slice of ham, the latter boiled for few
minutes, will work wonders. Grind
these with the meat fine. Season the
mixture With salt, pepper, a little
chopped parsley and, if it is wanted,
with little onion juice. Add enough
bread crumbs to make sufficient guam
tity. The usual proportion for souf-
fle is two cupfuls of meat to one cupful
of bread crumbs. To two cupfuls OF
meat and bread crumbs add cupful
OF white sauce and the yolks of two
eggs. Fold in the stiffly beaten whites
of the eggs, fill the buttered ramekins
half full of the mixture, sprinkle with
buttered crumbs and bake in a quick
oven. Serve as soon as they come
from the fire, or they will fall. The
white sauce is made of one cupful OF
milk and tablespoonful each Of but
ter and flour. Salt and pepper are
added to taste.

The Conditions for the Past Week az
Seen by the Department.
The week ending a. M, May 2, had
mean temperature of about 64 de-
grees, whichois nearly four below nor

lures during the first and last portions,
and very cool weather during the mid.

burg on the 3Oth. Light frost occur.
red on that date in parts of Greenville
county. The week was generally win
dy, and there was less than a normal
amount Of sunshine, and the lack OF
sunshine Is said to have been detri-
mental to growing crops.
The rainfall was generally light, and
places in various parts mad no rain.
but parts Of Colleton, Darlington,
Chesterfield, Marlboro, and Pickens
counties had over an inch Of rain,
while counties adjoining these had
beneficial amounts, nevertheless the
need of a general rain is indicated
for all parts of the State. The drought
is severe along the coast. The month
Just ended was the driest April OF
record since 1870 at Charleston, and
the third driest at Columbia in the
last seventeen years.
Farm work made rapid progress as
during previous weeks. except that
the ground is too hard for proper prep
aration, especially bottom lands in
tended for late corn. Planting opera
tions were pushed, and for staple
crops, are nearly finished. Cultivation
of corn has become active over most
Of the State.
Corn is all planted except in the
extreme west, and on bottoms. 1t
has attained from fair to good stands,
except that birds and worms are de-
structive in many places, necessitat-
ing much replanting. Much corn looks
yellow from the low temperature.
Cotton planting is nearly finished
except in the extreme northwestern
parts. termination is slow and un-
satisfactory, due to the dry soil and
low temperature. Only small part
of the crop is up. The stands are
generally poor, and the plants sickly.
Replnting has been done in a few
places, owing to the failure Of the
first planting to come up, and because
some of the first plants have died after
coming up.
Tobacco transplanting is nearly fin
ished in a few districts, and the work
has stopped in others awaiting rain.
That set out is growing nicely. The
cool weather was favorable for wheat,
but the lack of moisture detrimental
to both wheat and oats. The latter is
heading low, and has turned yellow.
Truck was cut short by drought along
the coast, although shipments contin-
he heavy 1t is impossible to deter
mine definitely the conditions Of the
peach crop: many reports indicate ex-
ccssive droppings, some that the crop
is uninjured and others that it has
been destroyed. Apples, plums and
cherries are generally promising.
Pastures and garden, as well as all
minor crops, need rain and warmer
weather.
