the farm in a rather dilapidated
condition: Fences in bad repair,
and a general cleaning up need
ed We are of the opinion that
it is the interests of our County
(and here recommend) that all
except Forty Acres of this farm
be sold, thereby saving the
County a useless expenditure Of
money in keeping this farm in
repair. Inmates at the farm ap-
parently are properly and well
cared for.
We visited our County Jail and
find it in a clean sanitary condi-
ton. We would call attention of
the County Judge to the damaged
condition of the walls of the Jail
building and recommend that he
proceed at once to protect and
properly repair said brick wall.
Our County Judge informs US
that h is arranging and prepar-
ing plans for the erection of a.
new Court House $50 mucn need
ed as fast as it is advisable to
do.
We would especially ask that
the old Jail building be torn down
and removed from the Court
House property; 1t is worthless,
unsightly and should be torn
down.
Thanking your Honor and the
Officers of the Court and es-
pecially do we extend thanks to
our efficient Door-keeper, 0. L.
Moncrief, for promptness and
efficient manner in assisting in
the discharge of our duties.

scalp was a solid scale all over. The
burning and itching was so severe that
she could not rest, day or night We

read of the Cuticura Remedies. We at
once got a cake of Cuticura Soap, a
box of Cuticura Ointment and one bot
tie of Cuticura Resolvent, and fol.
lowed directions carefully. After the
first dose of the Cuticura Resolvent
We used the Cuticura Soap freely and

Eggs.

Eggs are now becoming reasonable
In price so that the frugal housewife
may feel that she can use them more
plentifully. They may often take the
place OF meat in a meal, especially for
breakfast, luncheon or supper dish.
When making angel food the yolks
may be used for any number OF
dishes. A salad dressing, or a gold
cake will use most of the yolks. Beat
the yolks left from the angel cake, add
q little cream or milk and salt. then
turn into hot buttered omelet pan
and stir constantly until all cooked
Serve as a supper or breakfast dish.
II more cream is added the egg may
be served on toast.
