Cottage Cheese with Fruits.

At this season Of the year when the
supply Of fruits is Mt its highest and
large quantities have been made into
preserves, the combined use Of pre-
served fruits and cottage cheese as q
food.saving system should not be over
looked. The United States depart
ment Of agriculture points out that
cottage cheese with fruit preserves,
such as strawberries. figs or cherries
poured over It, and served with bread

tage cheese balls may be served sep
arately or eaten with the preserves.
A more attractive dish may be made

Is unknown to most people, 1t is

honey in the background. Now
that our sugar supply is reduced
by reason of supplying the al

Eggs that are put away by the farm
housewife In the summer, when they
would bring very small prices, will
bring very high prices in the fall and
winter, and the fresh eggs that are
laid on the farm during those months
of high prices may be eaten at home. -
Prices Of Eggs.
The average farm price Of eggs IN
the United States in April, May. and
June, 1917. was 20 cents dozen,
against 3S.7 cents a dozen in October,
November, and December of that year.
In 1915 the average difference in farm
prices in the periods compared was
1913 cents dozen. There is period
Of from five to six months in every
year when the average price Of fresh
eggs on the farm Is about ten cents a
dozen more than the average price
during the season Of heavy production,
The farm housewife, therefore, makes
a dime clean, clear money on every
dozen eggs laid during the season Of
heavy production that she holds over
and markets during the season Of
scant production. If, for instance, she
holds over hundred dozen eggs laid
during the season OF scant production.
she has made ten dollar bill, which
can be applied toward "setting a bet
ter table" during the season Of scant
egg production, and there Is no way in
which she could better apply that ten
dollars than by putting fresh eggs or
even the perfectly good preserved eggs
on her own table.
Methods Of Preserving.
There are several ways in which
spring and summer eggs can be pre-
served for fall and winter consumption
on the farm. II the farm is in prox-
unity to a cold-storage plant. the best
practice might be to crate the eggs az
shortly as possible after they are laid
and put them in storage. The absence
Of the cold-storage plant, however,
does not mean at all that the farm
housewife cannot hold her eggs for
higher prices. Eggs can be preserved
either In water glass or in limewater
and kept in perfect condition for from
six to nine months. Preserved by
either Of these methods the eggs are
good and usable for a year or more.
but the longer period Of preservation
would never be necessary, as the Pc
riod Of high prices follows the period
of low prices inside the perfect preser.

Put Away EGGS.

For the past few weeks, while egg
production has been perhaps at its
highest, considerable portion Of the
eggs have been used for setting. The
Matching season, however, is now
about over, and for the next several
weeks, under the old practices, a very
heavy production of eggs will be
dumped on the market in toto. This
period Is the one In which the farm
woman should put away a very large
part Of the eggs for sale or use during
the fall and winter. II she sells them
instead Of holding them, the egg dealer
and the cold-storage man make the
profit that she might as well have for
herself.

SECTIONALISM AGAINST E. u

5 Washington, Dec. 28.-Suggestions
involving sectionalism and possible
application of an administration "coid
hand" to Senator E. D. Smiths claim
to the craftsmanship of the important
interstate commerce committee of the
senate, are made in Washington pa
per this afternoon. The paper in
question, which has previously CON.
tanned articles by no means biased in
the South Carolina senator's favor,
now publishes the following in con-
nection with the News and Courier's
information that Senator Smith
claims his right to the chairmanship p
under. the senate precedent:
This is taken here to mean that II

does not give Senator Smith the chair
.manship, there will be fight. Sena
tor Pomerene,, according to his
friends, is already lining up support
for the position. Much, is to be made
by Pomerene and his supporters Of
the fact that the North is entitled to
this craftsmanship and that Southern
Democrats have too many already in
proportion to the Democrats from the
North. The administration may take
a hand in the matter in behalf of the
Ohio senator. Senator Smith o.
South Carolina has not seen fit in a
number Of instances to do as the
White House wanted him to. Just a.
this time, when highly important
railroad legislation is to come UP,
the administration has a keen inter-
est in the interstate commerce COM
mittee."
The interstate commerce commit
tee is expected to meet tomorrow
and it will be interesting to see who
acts as chairman pro tenn.

SUMTER-TURBEVILLE ROAD.
Construction of Short Link Between
McBride's and Pudding Swamp
Road Would Reduce Distance.

Editor Daily Item.
1 see it is proposed to build an
other tobacco warehouse in Sumter.
This is good move, for as a general
thing what builds UP the court house
town helps all the county. The pro-
moters should see that easy access to
the tobacco growing territory should
be opened.
On September 10, 1914, Messrs. d.
L. Green, d. E. Turbeville and j. T.
Buddin, all of Clarendon county, ap-
peared before the Chamber Of Com
merce and County Board to urge
direct road to Sumteor. They stated
| that they wanted to do business in
Sumter, but were deferred by distance
and bad roads.
In furtherance of this direct road
and to open up lands in my charge,
l had surveyed almost an airline from
McBride's Cross roads to Mr.. j. T.
Buddins on the Pudding Swamp road.
With a long and careful study of the
lay Of the land and the objectives-
Sumter and Turbeville-I have locat-
ed and partly cut out the most of this
road where it will be most easily
built and kept up. This is a public
enterprise that is needed in the de-
velopment of the county and the
drawing closer together of the citi-
zens of the progressive towns OF
Sumter and Turbeville. That the in
terests I represent will largely bene-
fit by opening this road is incidental
to all public work. But Sumter coun-
ty will many times reap the cost OF
this road when these lands are set
tied by thrifty owners, in addition tc
the benefits of direct travel.
Mr.. c. E. McElveen, who owns be-
tween me and the Pudding SwamT
road, will give the right of way.

osition and hope to have the figure!
