Use Corn and Save Wheat

Palatable Corn Bread.--When there
is SO much corn and not enough
wheat, it is worth while to learn to
eat corn bread. The success of this
venture depends ON the kind of corn
bread the American woman serves.
She may make her dinner corn bread
plain or make it with eggs, but if she
ants to create corn bread appetite
in herfamily, she should make it of
fresh unbolted meal and make it
crisp and golden brown.
Raised Corn Bread for Supper
The spoon breads are equally good
for supper and always make sub
stantial dish with meat stew. When
company is coming or you want to
surprise the family try risen corn
bread for supper. 1t is not advisable
to attempt it for breakfast because
meal ferments so rapidly with yeast
that the product is likely to be sour
by morning. One cake compressed
yeast, two sups sweet milk, scalded
and cooled, two tablespoonfuls brown
sugar, two tablespoonfuls lard, two
and half cups white corn meal, one
cup sifted flour; one teaspoonful salt,
two eggs well beaten. Dissolve yeast
ands ugar in lukewarm milk and add
IlCllCQ ldO. OJil Vic NOh
flour. salt and add well beaten eggs.
Beat thoroughly. Fill creased bowl
two-thirds full. Set to rise in a warm
place for about on hour. Be careful
that it does not over rise. 1t should
be baked as soon as light. The bak-
ing will require about twenty to thirty
minutes, according to thickness of
pone.
Cornmeal Sticks.-Two and one
half cups corn meal, one-half cup
-four, one teaspoonful soda, one tea
spoonful salt, one teaspoonful baking
powder, one egg, two cups butter
milk, one cup sweet milk. Sift flour
and baking powder together. Add
salt. Stir soda into the buttermilk
until thoroughly dissolved, and while
milk is frothing vigorously, mix with
meal and flour. Add sweet milk.
Beat thoroughly and add well beaten
egg. Have ready irons well creased
and very hot Pour mixture in at
once and bake in quick oven until
crisp brown.
Corn Pones.-Two cups white meal,
two cup buttermilk, one-haf tea
soda, one teaspoonful salt, one table
spoonful melted fat. Put fat in bis
cult tin or iron griddle on top of the
stove. While it is heating, sift meal
and add salt. Stir soda into the but
termilk, mixing thoroughly. When
frothing reaches its height, pour milk
into meal and stir together. Add the
smoking hot fat. The mixture should
be a very stiff batter. If too thick,
more milk or water may be added.
Drop from spoon in small oblong
cakes in the hot pan. Leave the pan
on top of the stove until the bread
begins to rise, then cook in moderate
ly hot oven. The crust of the corn
bread should be thick, crisp, and
golden brown.

CHILDRENS PULPIT
What The Book of Genesis
Tells Us

Every book, that is worthy one,
has some one outstanding purpose or
important lesson which it tries to
teach. A book without this purpose
is not worth writing or reading. The
different books which make. up our
Bible have been kept in the Bible be-
cause they are worthy reading. We
ought then to search for the purpose
or lesson of these different books.
Some of them may teach more than
one important truth, and Genesis is
one of these.
One day boy was out i'm the yard
lying on the grass. | don't know just
what this boys name was, but we will
call him John. John was lying on the
grass, looking up at some big white
clouds, as they lazily fioated by. And
watching them, he begun TO wonder
He wondered who made all thoae
clouds. He had hardly asked himself
this question when his attention was
called to the rustling of the leaves on
the trees, and someone seemed to ask
him, who made the wind and the
trees? Or, who made the earth on
which the trees and the grass and
the flowers grow?
John then went down to the river,
thinking that maybe he had fish on
his hook. There was no fish, so he
sat down and waited while. And
as he waited he noticed the water
running on just as it had for years
and years. And he begun to wonder
where all the water came from, and
who made it all, and who put the fish
in it. His wonder was still greater
that night as he went out and MOTTO

in the sky.
It was Johns habit to read from
his Bible. This night he decided to
read from Genesis. And, strange
enough, he found there the answers
to all of our questions if only we
would consult it more. He learned,
by that evenings reading, that God
made all of these things, the earth,
the seas, the stars, and everything.
He even made man. And, having
made him, decided that he was made
very good.
Then John asked himself, Who is
God and what is He like? Is He good
to people, or is He angry toward
them? Does He love them or does
He hate them? He read on a little
further and learned how God had
made that Garden for man to live in.
He made that Garden just as nice as
He could. There was lots of shade,
end lots of water, and lots Of fruit.
There was just enough work for man
to do to keep him busy and happy.
When John read this he knew that
God must love all mankind, himself
included, or He would not have been
so kind. 1t was Gods will, he felt,
that man should be happy and enjoy
the good things of the earth. Yes,
God, who made all things, is a lover
Of people. He was sure Of this, for
Genesis told him so. And always
after that when he thought of Gene
sis, he thought Of God as the maker
Of all things and as One who loved
him.

In plaintive tone.
The call is clear;
AS she alone
In need--and cries
For helpl Is none
AT hand-nor tries
To her enthrone?

Again / hear
That mournful word,
Is still none near
Nor aught has heard
What scans her cry
Unanswered yet,
And must she die
While men forget?
Help Liberty!"
Will ne'er men heed
Nor hear that cry
For gain, for greed
Would see her lie
Unclaimed, unthroned,
Yet pleading still,
With blood atoned
Though done no i'll?
"Help Liberty!"
Shall heartless lord
In secret scheme
To draw his sword
That some dire dream
For lust, for power
Be realized,
While freedoms hour
Is thus despised?,

And wide the sea
I'll fight, I'll pay,

HEAVY FROST VISITS
THIS DISTRICT FRIDAY

This community was visited by its
first heavy frost and freeze of the
season last Friday night. The cold
snap was proceeded by two or three
days of rain. Friday afternoon the
skies began to clear and before night
it became evident that heavy frost
was on its way.
Many places ice was frozen in pans
and pals to thickness of almost a
quarter of an inch. All vegetation
was nipped by the forerunner of win
ter and farm and garden crops were
given emphatic notice that the har-
vest time was very near. The wealth
er continues cold and fall crops are
being gathered as fast as possible.
