.HE distinction of being called a
good cook comes not only from
knowing how to cook. but also


from knowing what to COOK.
You do not want to eat corned peei
and cabbage In August; the very
thought Of 1t is unpleasant; you hunger
for the lighter foods and cooling dell
cacies. Consequently, in the four reel
pes here offer you, have thought OF
the summer, and have chosen dishes
that are not only nourishing but appe-
tizing.
One word Of advice only I would give
and this advice is applicable to the
preparation of all delicacies from print
ed recipes: Do not work as though you
were a machine. AS the painter. when
asked how he achieved such wonderful
color harmonies, replied: Il mix my

A Teu-the-Truth Editor.

A Western editor, who believes in
telling the truth, printed the follow
ing:
Willie Shortlike and Annie Bloo-
mers were married at the--church
last evening. The church was very
prettily decorated with flowers and
potted plants, borrowed promiscu-
ously from over town from people
who didn't want to lend them. The
decorating was done under protest
by some of the members of the
church, who were asked to do so by
the bride, and couldn't well refuse.
The ladies are of the opinion that if
the couple were so bent on having a
stylish wedding they should have
been willing to have paid some one
to chase all over the town for day
getting flowers together and then
taking them home again.
The bride wore a handsome Par
isian gown (made at home), and the
groom was decked out in a SO hand
me-down, borrowed for the occasion.
Sallie Potts was maid of honor and
the consensus of opinion was that
she looked two to one better than the
bride. The young couple took the
morning train for St Louis, where
they will spend more money in
few days than Willie can earn in
three months.
willie says that now he's mar
ried, he's going to settle down. Some
of our merchants think it would
have been better if he had settled
up first. The groom gets salary
of S27 a month, which is about the
allowance Annie has been used to
for pin money. We wish. for Willie's
sake, that the old saying that it takes
no more to support two than one
wasn't lie.
THE bride sent US shoe box full
of a conglomeration of stuff sup
posed to be cake. If this is SAM
pie of Annie's cooking we feel sorry
for Willie. Our janitor's dog fell
heir to the cake and now he's lying
in the cold, cold ground. But this
wedding is none of our funeral. If
Willie and Annie are satisfied, we've
got no kick coming" ."-E1chanqe.

GROW FLOWERS.

Grow Flowers" is the advice the
Department of Agriculture gives the
South. 1t is good advice because it
is in line with the crop diversified
ton idea and because a great many
of the cut flowers sold in the South
are shipped in from other parts of
the country. Certainly the South
should not buy one flower away from
home, because it's climate gives it a
big advantage over the North and
the West in flower growing. In this
connection it is recalled that few
days ago a Cordele man shipped two
carloads of Crisp County honey, for
which he received $4,000. Why
would it be worth while to combine
the flower and honey industries?-

If you have not then what is the

deposit $25,OOO,O0O of crop NOV

cash money and deal it out to the
farmers at ten cents a pound On their
cotton and hold that cotton for six
months there would only be half the
crop on the market at a time and at
the end of the six months sell the
cotton at ten cents, or more, no less
because it is in the hands of some
body that can hold it and demand a
set price, then pay Uncle Sam back.
BY the way, it looks like a ding
stingy uncle that won't lend his own
family a little cash on as staple a
thing as cotton anyway-don't you

Mr.. J. H. Hall in DeKalb New Era

went up to Atlanta the other
day and looked for the last time on
the dead face of my longtime friend,
Josiah Carter. And as l stood by
his bier with the white face still
and silent before me, which l had
seen full of life and animation a few
weeks before, l wondered how many
would leave behind them the aroma
of such a clean and beautiful life as
he has done.
1t was my good fortune to know
Josiah Carter for many years-to
work with him and to feel the influ-
ence of his rare personality. He
was one of the hardest workers
ever knew, but he was always cheer
full, always considerate and helpful
and always high-minded and clean.
He was one of those rare characters
whom it seems blessing to know
whose radiance enriches your life
like the sunlight enriches the rose
u II Il y
| first met Mr.. Carter in the
strenuous days of the old Atlanta
Herald and l was thrown with him
during the Spanish war when he
was the managing editor of the
Atlanta journal and l was editor of
the Geographic news. In those
stirring times the Journal staff
would usually meet in the large edi-
torial room after the stress of the
days work for brief chat and such
a rare group it was Many of them
are dead, some are engaged in other
callings and all have streaks of gray

was the editor n-chief. Jack Co.
hen, Walter G. Cooper, Walter G..
Taylor, and those two rare geniuses,
Montgomery M. Folsom and Wal

staff. Smith Clayton was an occa-
sional worker and James G.. Wood
