those who are DESTROYS of enjoying this

Agriculture. Washington D. C. and ask
for Farmers Bulletin 1856. This will not
only give directions as to how to identi-
fly the edible varieties but also how to
cook them in many different ways, also
methods of canning.
There are a number of varieties com
mon to this particular section which
are easy of Identification, and once

Tuesday morning when an auto driven
by Mr.. Bob Evans, went through the
rails OF the approach to the iron bridge
from the south just south of Macon.
Mr.. Evans, in company with Rev. Mr..
Barnett of Tennessee, started to the
country. and the car swerved and went
through the railing, falling about ff-

under it. That both were not killed is
almost a miracle, but they luckily es-
capped with bruises and no broken bones.
