R WILDWOOD

The cold snap Of the past two weeks
gave every n a taste of the coming
of winter and to add zest to that feel
ing the guns were popping on the
meadows of late and many a mud hen
potpie graces the Wildwood tables.
The Wildwood Yacht club opens its
fall season Sunday with a sour krout
dinner. Secretary and Treasurer Geo.
G. Conner, Mr.. Ottens, Daniel Godfrey
and several others go to Atlantic City
Saturday, by way of Millville, on bust
ness pertaining to the Wildwood Yacht
club fishing pier. There are several
new features planned for the pier, for
which lumber is now being bought.
Byron q. Conner, a Philadelphia ar
fist, has made a comprehensive plan
of the structure.
Let as all say a good word for the
railroads the past season. The two
railroads into this beach delivered the
goods in excellent style and we think
they are worthy of the highest congrst-
ulations from the entire beach and its
visitors. In spite of war times, sched-
ules were never maintained better than
they were the past summer. They did
the finest kind of work.
Now that the colony is growing SO
along New York avenue and that there
will be at least fifty more bungalows
erected in that section this winter, ac-
cording to George Conner, it seems
that all those lights on the North Wild
wood boardwalk should be distributed
in a more equable manner. They burn
all night at present and not a living
soul uses or needs them, while people
living west of the railroad are in bad
need of more lights. A light all the
year is needed at Fourth and Surf, the
only front section where there are any
houses and all year residents aud where
there is no light winter or summer.
Mr.. Conner states that there will be
fifty more houses built up New York
avenue, reaching practically to Angle
sea. Quite a new colony is growing
between Eighth and Tenth avenues; in
that section there has been several
thousand dollars worth Of land sold
and houses contracted for within the
past two weeks.
II Wild wood will rally to the pro-
posed Anglesea road there is no ques-
tion that we will get it, and it will be
absolutely the best feature for advance
ment we can have, as 1t brings Phila-
delphia half an hour nearer to this
beach.

toes in wagon loads. Fine large heads
OF cabbage were sold by one factory
there to its employees at six cents each.

Picking Suggestions From the
State Board Of Agriculture
GREAT CROP OF PEACHES

GREAT CROP OF
The greatest crop of peaches South
Jersey ever produced is now nearly
sold. On three days last week about
80 full carloads left the state each day.
There will be little reason for having
tasteless western canned peaches serv-
ed on our tables this winter. The can
ming that has been done is of tremen-
dous volume and has undoubtedly pre-
vented some market decentralization.
MORE CITIES CONSIDERING PUBLIC
MARKETS
Several cities have reported that they
have the most successful public mar
ket started this year. The Atlantic
City Market seems to have met even
more public approval than most others.
The ladies there have been so pleased
with the results of their cndoavors that
a fund has been raised and a covered
market for all year round business will
soon be completed. The proprietor of
one of the largest hotels writes: $50 far
as I know the low cost of living in At
lantic City has been a bright spot in
the high cost of living elsewhere"
Several cities have committees Of
housewives and farmers considering To-
cations, rules, etc. for a public market
next year.
RECIPES RECOMMENDED BY THE
STATE AGRICULTURAL COLLEGE
PIcKLING:
Following close upon the season of
canning comes that of piekling-. the
preservation of fruits and vegetables
by means of brine or vinegar spices and
condiments. 1t might seem as if pick
ling were merely a means of saving
immature fruits and vegetables threat
ened by early frosts, but as a matter of
fact these products play quite an i'm
portapt part in diet, aiding the work
of digestion by stimulating the flow of
the digestive fluids and giving Spiel
ness to foods rich in nutrients, but lack
ing in flavor.
Brine for storing should be strong
enough to bear up an egg. One cup of
salt. Brine for overnight. One gal
Ion of water.
To cause cucumbers to retain color
scald in vinegar in vessel lined with
grape or cabbage leaves.
SPICES o PICKLES
One tablespoon cinnamon, s or 10
cloves, q inch piece of ginger root,
one quart Of pickles.
GREEN TOMATO PICKLES
One peck green tomatoes--core and
slice, one dozen large white onIons.-
peel and slice, six red pepper pods, cut
into small bits, one cup mixed spices.
Sprinkle vegetables with salt, pack
in stone jars, let stand over night. In
the morning drain, re-pack in ars,
cover with vinegar which has been
scalded with the spices.
SOUR CUCUMBER PICKLES
Small cucumbers-- wash and let stand
IN salt water over night. Drain, rinse,
pack in sterilized jars, adding a few
red pepper pods and a few whole spi-
ces, cover with boiling vinegar and
seal.
A small amount of brown sugar may
be added.
SWEET GREEN TOMATO PICKLE
One peck green tomatoes--sliced and
cored, one cup salt.
Sprinkle tomatoes with salt and let
stand overnight. In the morning drain
