Home Made Recipe Books

dollars go a long way a dear old woman
in her eighties earns her Easter
money selling recipe books of her own
make. They are small blank books
covered with bright colored silks and
each contains her chosen recipes
IT made $40 last year" she announced
proudly TT seems wonderful that peo-
pie will buy such trifles when one con-
siders the huge receipt books that can
be bought for only little more.

friend.

Kentucky Girls Tobacco Crop
An exhibition of thrift and inde-
pendence comes from the Knob section.
The three young daughters of Samuel
H. Ragland, a prosperous and well-to-
do land owner of that section, con-
ceived the idea of earning pin money
for themselves, and accordingly Sc
cured permission from their father to
raise a tobacco crop of their own. With
the exception of breaking the land the
three young women, Misses Elma, Idell
and Annie Ragland, raised the crop en-
tirely unaided. They accomplished the
work solely from a wish to be indepen-
dent and elf-sustaining.-F'r Fa-
