MOHAWK TAKES TOURISTS
NORTH FOR THE START

About thirty entrants and their
guests for the 1911 Glidden tour from
New York to Jacksonville left here
Saturday afternoon on the steamer
Mohawk, and will land early Tuesday
morning.
Many friends of the tourists were
at the docks to see them off, and
many flags and hats were f1uttering
farewell as the giant coaster worp-
ed herself into the channel and
slowly turned her snout to the sea.
Two photographers had their ma
chimes set up on the end of the pier,
and in spite of the blistering sun pro-
ceeded to embalm the likeness of the
vessel and her Glidden passengers on
sensitized paper.
Jacksonville will settle down now
to preparations for giving the tour
lists the time of their lives. Numer-
Gus side trips are being arranged for
their PLEASURE. Temporary measures
taken by the county commissioners
of Duval and st. Johns will open
very passable and safe journey to ST.
Augustine, forty miles away, and one
of the most interesting and quaint
little cities in North America.
The Glidden tourists who sailed on
the Mohawk are: P. F. Scheen, J. S.
Dixon, H. S. Abbott, DR.. and Mrs. w.
D. Stinson, F. w. King, Edwin P.
Ansley and his daughter, Miss Laura
Ansley, r. S. Hall, F. E. Harris, Ho-
mer Rogers. Herbert B. Race, E. l.
Kellogg, T. F. Surrency, ]. ". Pope,

E. S. Owens, Mr.. and Mrs. w. R. Car
ter, w. A. Bly,, A. w. Walker, H. B.
McNeill and Mrs. Mcneil, L. L.
Meggs, Julian Howard.
A great many of the Florida and
Georgia entrants for the tour will go
by rail later, not caring to lose the
time that would be spent at sea.
Those who came to the city from 9TH
er points were in jolly mood. There
was parade of perhaps a dozen or
more of the machines that are to
come down and of entrants in other
machines who will drive new ones
down. They carried Jacksonville ban
ners, Florida banners and banners of
other towns.
Referring to the tour an Associated
Press dispatch from New York, sent
out Friday, says:
"Seventy-eight cars of many makes
and patterns, assembled from almost
every state along the Atlantic sea-
board, and as far west as Indiana, will
point their noses south next Satur-
day, and stream out of New York
City in a winding file for Jacksonville,
1454 miles away, in the Glidden tour
of 1911. October 26, twelve days lat
er, is the day set for the finish. Dur
ing the trip the motors will take the
dust of nine states, top the Blue
Ridge and follow close to the trail of
the storm center during the days of
the civil war.
"The national highway, whose path
they will keep to the Land of Flow
ers, winds through New Jersey, cuts
an arc in southwestern Pennsylvania
to Gettysburg and runs in broad
line through Maryland to the Shenan-
doah Valley of Virginia. Through
the broad, rich valley it leads past
sandstone and marble monuments
telling of the days of Stonewall Jack
son and Sheridan. In the rolling
country. the trail skirts the scenes of
a score of battles, to the broad acres

FAIRFIELD FACTS

-
Special Cor. Ocala Banner:
I Mr.. e. w. Jernigan passed out of
this earthly life in the early daylight
hours of Tuesday morning. Septem-
Der 3, at the residence of his son, H.
]. Jernigan, at this place. The de-
ceased was just rounding out his six
ty-eighth year. For more than forty
years he had been resident of
Florida, having come here from North
Carolina, his native state, soon after
the civil war. He was one of the quiz
ct, unpretentious men of that class
who constitute the substantial citizen
ship of our land, a consistent mem
Der of the Baptist church and faith
full husband and father. He leaves a
widow and several children to mourn
his departure. Many sympathizing
neighbors joined the bereft relatives
in showing honor to his memory be-
side the grave. The services at bur-
ial were conducted by Rev. Martin,
the Baptist pastor, at Wildwood GEM
etery. Mr.. Jernigan was one in the
thinning ranks of Confederate veter-
ans, few of whom are yet with us
at Fairfield.
Mr.. A. B. Rou continues quite sick
at his home near here. Mr.. Rou's ad-
vanced years make the burdens of
sickness heavy to bear.
Mr.. Brinson has selected as teacher
for our school a Mr. Brown of Maine
We hope to have him with us by the
18th inst.
Mrs. H. w. Tate, who has enjoyed
the summer with relatives in North
Carolina, delighted her husband and
friends by her return few days ago
Rev. Williams filled his pulpit on
Sunday, both morning and evening.
He announced the beginning of re-
vival services on the evening of the
first Sunday in November. The pas
tor will have the. assistance of Rev.
Niece.
On account of the death of Mr.. Jer-
nigan and the serious illness of Mr..
Rou, the Sunday school picnic was in
definitely postponed. The childreni
greatly regretted this.
News came Wednesday of the
burning at daylight of the house at
Irvine occupied by Mr.. and Mrs. Cher
ry. All their household goods were
burned. Mrs. Cherry is a daughter
of Mr.. and Mrs. Leverett here.
Several members of the family of
Mr.. H. ]. Jernigan, himself included,
have been ill this week.
Mr.. Goodwin is busy DEMONSTRATING
some wild hogs. He enjoys the exer-
else these hot days-maybe!
This correspondent does not wish
any part in the game law controver-
sy, but one phase of the matter sug-
gests this inquiry: Does the fact that
a man is preacher rob him of the
rights of citizens in general? If al
man named Coleman, or Brown, or
Jones, speaks or writes as c., B., or
j.. merely, does his profession, what
ever it may be. affect his argument?
Should not every citizen speak, if he
speaks politely and pertinently?
Ought a preacher, even if he goes
hunting, be dubbed, a reverend
sport?" l must confess it doesn't
see mright to me.

FIGHT ON GREEN FRUIT TAKEN
UP IN WASHINGTON

The following dispatch was sent
out Monday from Washington:
The department of agriculture has
prepared for confiscation of any ship
ments of unripe oranges or other I'M
ripe fruit from Florida Secretary
Wilson, who has been in communica-
ton with the Florida agricultural au-
thorities announced today that any
attempts to ship artifcially ripened
fruit out of Florida or to process
unripe fruit on it's journey to the
north would be the signal of govern
ment activity.
A shortage in citrus fruits has de-
veloped throughout the north with ac-
companying high prices. Much of
this shortage is due, it is claimed, to
the enforcement of the Florida state
law prohibiting the shipment of I'M
ripe fruit, land the federal pure food
decision which prohibits the transpor-
tation of artificially ripened or color
ed fruit.
The agricultural department is pre-
pared to act under the pure food law.
DR.. Harvey w. Wiley, chief of the bu-
reau of chemistry, stated today that
if advised of any shipments inspect
ors would take any necessary action.
Fruit may be picked green and RI
pened by natural processes without
running counter to pure food regula-
tions," said DIR. Wiley. Green fruit
ripened by the sweating process
without the aid of chemicals, or by
transportation in steam-heated cars
cannot be transported without viola
ton of the pure food regulations"
The following telegram has been
sent out by the Florida Citrus Fruit
Exchange to the governors, of thirty
two states, to the pure food boards
and bureaus. in, 'thirty-one states, and
the boards Of health in the principal
cities OF the United States:
Notwithstanding over two years
strenuous efforts for prevention ship
ments green oranges, which efforts
included securing passages special
Florida law forbidding it,, many short
sighted, INSCRIPTIONS shippers are
arranging to soon food the country
with poisonous green oranges mas
querading as food, to Florida's shame
We want assistance in annihilating
this infamous traffic in health and
lives of children and invalids. Can
we secure your cooperation by your
warning all health officials in cities
in your state to maintain vigilant,
rigid inspection with seizure, con-
domination and destruction of all sour,
unripe Florida oranges arriving next
thirty days contrary to pure food
laws, and as premium on faithful
ness we will pay reward one hundred
dollars in Inspector discovering first
car destroyed in your city for such
violation pure food laws Please wire

Over twenty states have signified
their intention of looking out for the
arrival of green fruit in their Sec
tions, and promise to report in full on
its disposition to the exchange.

Chocolate Icing,

In regard to chocolate icing, have
made one or two discov cries, which are
not only labor saving but quality-im-
proving. For small cake use one cup
of granulated sugar, one-fourth cup Of
hot water, in which one-eighth tea
spoonful of cream of tartar has been dis
solved, and two tablespoonfulso of grated,
bitter chocolate. Put all these in stew
pan and mix well. Then allow the in
gradients to boil, without stirring, until
the syrup spins thread three inches
long. Have the white of an egg we'll
beaten and pour the hot syrup in thin
stream upon it, beating continuously all
the time. If the stew-pan is elevated
some little distance above the bowl con-
tanning the egg, the syrup will be suffi-
ciently cooled so as not to cook the egg.
If the icing is little slow in thickening
place the bowl which contains it in a
vessel of cold water, and keep on beat
ing. This will soon bring 1t to the de-
sired consistency. Now is the time to
add one.fourth teaspoonful Of vanilla, as
the lowered tenn perature of tho icing will
not cause the delicate flavor to evapo-
rate. Before icing the cake, have a cup
VI COlo WdbCE az hohuS NV
knife-blade should be dipped before
each application. If the icing thickens
too much before all Is put on the cake,
beat into the remainder teaspoonful or
two of cold water until thin enough to
apply. II icing looks rough and a
smooth appearance Is desired, the wet
knife blade will remove all unevenness.
This icing is not only Of a cheese-like
consistency like good fudge, but it re-
mains moist for several days and does
not crack or break off when the cake is
cut.
Note: Probably two rounding table,
spoonfuls of chocolate are used. After
the frosting has been beaten until cool
enough to use, pour it over the cake,
then with a silver knife, return what
runs off to the sides of the cake, but do
not disturb the top. If the frosting Ia
undisturbed, it will present glossy ap-
pearsnos. If the frosting on the sides is
manipulated two or three times al may
be necessary, it will lose its glossiness.
This will not, however, change the tex
ture or the taste Of the icing.

Cooking with Brains.

The famous reply of Turner to the
man who inquired how he mixed his
colors-"With brains, Sir"-has pointed
many moral, but is nowhere more ap-
plicable than in cooking. The beginner
anxiously asks all sorts of questions Of
the experienced housekeeper, and gets
all sorts of replies. But in the end she
finds that to certain extent she must
work out her own salvation by the use
of brains. She learns very soon that the
best of recipes do not always bring good
results. She wonders why her cake Is
not 80 light as that of the friend who
told her how to make 1t, and concludes
that 1t must be the quality Of the baking
powder. 1t Is only long experience that
teaches her that the dslicacy of cake
depends more on beating than on baking
powder. So, too, though she may try
innumerabls rules for biscuits and pie
crust, ultimate success depends upon a
certain knack in handling the ingre-
dients. The secret of "quick biscuits"
is in having the dough as soft as you can
handle, while conversely the flakiest of
pie crust is achieved by having the least
possible water to hold the materials to-
gether. 1t requires no little patience to
learn these tricks of manipulation, but
once acquired they are invaluable. Ex-
perience, too, must teach the cook the
ways of her oven, and the use of the
various tools of her trade. At every
turn she must apply the rules of COM
mon sense, and the measure of her &C.
complishment will be according to her
brains,

Where TO Shirk.

Statistics show that only ten per cont
of tho housekeepers Of this country en-.
ploy help. The other ninety per cent
carry the burden of the daily round OF
household work, without outside assist
ance. Statistics do not show how many
women of this ninety per cent are wear
lug themselves out over the non-essen-
tials, or how many are endangering the
health and happiness of their families BY
leaving undone things which should be
done.
There Is a happy medium between
over conscientiousness and shiftlessness.
As one wise mother used to say to her
daughters, "Learn to shirk." That 10
the only way housekeeper can get the
best out of life.
How many minutes each day do you
waste wiping dishes? Either minutes OF
your own or Of one you employ, II yon
are one of the favored ton per cent? Sup
pose it is only ten minutes per meal,--a
low estimate for an average-sized family,
and the average rate Of speed at which
most Homework Ia done. Even at this
low estimate, in the course OF one year
you have used up one hundred and eigh-
ty-two and one-half hours!
What might you not have done with
/ that hundred and eighty-two and one
half hours! Your might have had a half
hour each day for rest and reading, and
been fresher and happier when your
family came together at night. You
might have spent the time in study and
had something added to your store OF
thoughts. Or if your work is 30 system
atized that you already have time for
rest and study, how much help you
might have given others, in that half
hour each day.
Don't wipe dishes! Wash in hot soapy
water-put In dish drainer, each dish as
nearly upright as possible, aud pour hot
water over them to rinse thoroughly Tor
spraying with hot water Is better).
Polish the glasses and silver and put
them away. Cover the rest of the dish
es with clean tea towel and set aside
on the drain board, and before the rest
of your morning work Is done the dishes
will be dry.
Dish drainers with compartment for
silver can be purchased. One house.
keeper wired an ordinary drainer 80 that
it had compartments for plates, cups,
etc., and each dish was held in such a
position that it could be easily and thor
oughly rinsed with hot water poured or
sprayed over it. If one drainer will not
hold all the family dishes, use two drain
ers.
Don't wipe dishes! Try this plan and
be richer by one hundred and eighty-two
and ons-half hours per year.

s,;ssrs and the Stars.

Spiders as an aid to astronomy are
recognized to such an extent that Ger
tain species are cultivated solely fol
the fine threads they weave. No sub
stitute for the spiders thread has yet
been found for bisecting the screw OF

the positions and motions Of the stars
Not only because Of the remarkable
fineness Of the threads are they val
liable, but because Of their durable
qualities. The threads of certain
spiders raised for astronomical pur:
poses withstand changes in tempera

spots they are uninjured when the heat
is SO great that the lenses Of the mi
