Fruit Candy.

Fruit candies require no cooking
and can be easily and quickly made.
1t Is best to use confectionery sugar,
as this may be more easily nodded.
The sugar is moistened with various
fruit juices to obtain various colo-s.
The sugar should be separated into
az many portions as there are colors
and moistened with enough of the
Juice to enable one to mold easily.
The mixture should then be formed

TO SUIT THE SEASON
BREAKFAST A MATTER WORTHY
OF CONSIDERATION.
Much Depends on the First Meal OF

pecIalIy II Is Of Supreme
Importance.

II breakfast IL merely a repast Of
rolls and coffee, then it is much the
same In winter and summer. But IL
1t consists Of any other dishes, 1t should
change with the season. The school
chlld's winter breakfast, for instance,
should be Of q different sort from the
breakfast 1t eats In the summer. II
a walk or any other exercise Is taken
before school begins, the breakfast
should be Of a rather substantial Or
der. Oatmeal, hominy and rice are
good cereals for this breakfast. A
baked apple or a raw one or an orange
a precede the cereal. Afterward
crisp buttered toast and a cup OF
cocoa, not too rich with cocoa, but
made entirely Of milk, can be eaten.
This breakfast is substantial enough
for any child.
For the adult who eats more than
rolls and coffee for breakfast, honey
or marmalade or jam are often rel
ished instead of fresh fruit for the
winter breakfast. One Of these sweets,
with toast, coffee and a coddled egg,
rounds out a satisfactory breakfast.
Butter should be generously in
dulged In at breakfast time by any
one who Is Immediately going out into
the cold. Bacon, broiled or served
with or without eggs, Is another good
breakfast dish in cold weather. In
fact, any digestible fat may be eaten.
Bacon served with fish makes an ideal
winter breakfast dish.

would more than pay off our entire
national debt; while those of New
York state alone would do the same
thing the second time and have
$500. 0Q0, 900 to spare"
These are a few of the many as
tonishing statements made oy our
William C. Rcdfeld, secretary of
commerce., one night last week, in
an address at the Academy of Music
to the Brooklyn Institute of Arts
and Sciences ON the development
of American Commerce"
1.-THE development" said Secre-
tary Redfeld. sis so s]tupenduous
that its like has not been witnessed
since the dawn Of time"
In further proof of his conten-
ton, Mr., Redfield took up the mat
ter by comparison and gave these
illustrations:
I'm 1850 the value of our farm
property was less than-$41, ZOO, 600.
In 1910 it was over $40, 900, O0O,-
600.
In 1850 we produced less than
SOC. 000, 600 bushels Of corn; in
1910 " 5000. OOO, 900 bushels.
OF wheat we grew 100, 900, 900
bushels in 1850; 1912 it was over
730, 000, 0L0 bushels.
AS recently as 1879 the valuation
OF farm crops vas $2,20O, 000, 900
a good sum, but it was increased
to $3.50, OOO, 900, 600 in 1909.
II cotton vas king just before
the war between the States. his
kingdom was small compared to it's
imperial extent today. The story
of the growth Of this crop reads
like q romance. Back in our in
fancy we grew, in 1890, 3,138I
bales. At the time Of his alleged
ROYALTY King Cotton produced in,
1859, 1900. 600 bales. This grew
by 1911 to- over 10000 900 bales.
We sold abroad in a recen. fiscal
year two and one4half times as
much cotton as made the whole
crop of 1889.
In 1912 we produced more thar
eeVen-tWelfths of the cotton of tht
world and consumed more thar
one.third of own crop, export
ing the balance"
But Mr.. Redfeld had other and
more remarkable statistics at hand
than those furnished by the growth.
Of the agricultural exports. He
showed that though those reached
the large sum of $500, 0OO, 900 in
1913, they formed little more than
one-iftb of the exports of that
year. Mr.. Redfield says:
For the twelve months ended
with January 81, 1914, the bsla c e
in our favor on merchandise trans
actions was in excess of $676, 0O0,-
600, an increase Of 500, 000, 900

Makes Another Promise
Locals Have Game.

If the latest word from our long ex-
pected L. Draper, manager of the
Middlesborough Appalachian leaguers
is to be fulfilled at last, local bugs
will witness his arrival here tomor-
row. This is only the steenth time
that the cratic Middle manager has
made the same assertion.
A telegram receimed from Draper
this morning says he and his clan Of
baseball warriors will likely be In the
city tomorrow and that his team
would play here as scheduled. OF
course Mr.. Draper is not aware of the
fact that Richmond had another team
dated for that day week ago. Draper
is scheduled to play at Kokomo that
day, too, and no attempt will be made
to hold him to his previous agreement
to play here.
Harry Stewart, who is trying for the
first sack job on the team, says the
Middies will play at kokomo Sunday,
and then, according to Draper, will
come here. Several other men of the
team arrived here yesterday and a
few are expected to come struggling
in from now on. GUSTS and Morgan,
two veterans of the team. arrived in
the city last night and will meet the
rest of the members of the team to-
morrow, maybe.
