"He was bold man who first ate
an OYSTER" according to sage Of an
early day--and he's foolish man who
doesn't eat oysters these days. for
the bivalves are cheaper than meat
and more plentiful than potatoes, and
they tickle the palate with thrill
that doesn't belong to either the sau-
sage or the tuber.
A big oyster crop, and the loss Of
the foreign market on account OF the
war IL accountable for the drop in
the price Of oysters this fall.
Because It h nutritious. and Is well
supplied with the fesh-building and
muscle-making elements. oysters make
a very good substitute for meat, and
thanks to national pure food laws the
sea food Is carefully inspected, and
no matter how far It In shipped It n
sure to be delivered to the consumer
In perfect condition.
The oyster affords the cook many
opportunities for preparing palatable
dishes. Here are some recipes that

While Sumter county boasts q
handsome and fairly modern court
house, erected 20 or 80 years ago, it
is fact that it's furnishings and
equipment are by no means what they
should be and that, in the event of
disastrous fire in the building, the
valuable record books in all of the
departments would, in all likelihood,
be seriously damaged, even if they
were not destroyed altogether.
And such loss in county like Sum-
ter would be irreparable. Records

193 An Excess of Lilo Bales to
Not the FarmA Differ
in Price, Too.

Just what amount Of cotton is be-
ing held on the farms is not known, Of
course, but an estimate of $500 or
5000 bales is conservative.
There is difference in price as
we'll as in receipts, as compared with
October 1st quotations last seasonal
comparison which falls heavily upon
the cotton growers and affects all
other business as we'll. On October
LIST last year, good middling cotton
sold readily in Americas market at
IS IL cents, or just exactly double the
price paid for it today. Then, too,
there was brisk demand at 10 -
cents. Today there is little, if any, de-
mand, at 6 ga to cents.
If, as seems true, that Sumter
county farmers have gathered $1,000
bales of cotton already, the crop total
will be the best in years, as the fields
are still white with open cotton, AMI
it really seems that the entire crop
awaits the pickers.
Americus times-recorder. [volume] (Americus, Ga.) 1891-current, 1914-10-01

Cotton receipts in Americas to this
date, October LIST, are lilo bales in
excess of receipts for September last
year. Up to the closing hour yester-
day the several warehouses here re-
ported total receipts of wagon cotton
1926 bales, which compares with re-
ceipts of 1905 bales to this date last
season. This excess would bear out
the assertion that Sumter county had
produced a fine crop of cotton this
year, the best, in fact, in several sea-
sons.
To this excess of. LILO bales
should be added the large amount Of
cotton held on plantations because of
the low prices obtaining. This guam
tity held in reserve, if marketed, would
have carried the total seasons re-
ceipts we'll above $1,000 bales, or an
excess of more than 1000, as compared
with September Goth receipts last
year.

yond control in the courthouse here,
the loss of the records would, in all
probability, be the result, as was the
case in the Webster county courthouse
fire this week.
And such a calamity is not an i'm
probability. The courthouse is not
steam-heated, and the numerous open
CRATES on three floors, with the ever
dangerous coal stoves, constitute a
constant menace. Oftimes at closing
hours in the evening fires are left
burning in the open CRATES, forming q
source of danger, always. The atten-
ton of the county commissioners has
often been called to this danger.
On one occasion plans were prepar-
ed by a company looking to the pro-
lection of the courthouse vaults, but
later the plans were carefully pigeon
holed where they would probably be
destroyed with other records in the
event of fire.
