DOING THEIR BIT

= q
Many 0cala residents are doing
their bit to supply food for their own
tables and the country and there are
hundreds of attractive gardens in the
city, many of which will produce
more garden stuff than the family
can use. A Star man, arising this
morning very early, took ramble
over the second ward and found
scores of gardens that did his heart
good to look at. Many of the gardens
had as high as dozen different vege-
tables growing, and many fine
strawberry bed. Mr.. Henry Sistrunk
has almost an acre in garden truck,
which he works personally in the
early mornings and late in the after
moons, not only growing a great deal
of food, but keeping himself in fine
physical condition. By the way, there
is no better exercise for one living
a sedentary life than welding the
garden hoe and plow.

Mrs. Cats, wife of Gov. Cats, ac-
companied by Mrs. Doyle Carlton,
wife of Senator Carlton, paid a de-
lghtful visit to the Convent of the
Holy Name this morning. The sis
tiers gave them a cordial reception
and showed their visitors through the
convent. The distinguished guests
were much pleased with their visit
and expressed their pleasure on see
ing the well ventilated, CHEEKY class
rooms, dormitories, art and music
rooms, and the bright faces of the
pupils, who gave them a glad well
come. Tampa Times. =
Mrs. Cats, who like any other
Protestant lady is entirely welcome to
visit a Catholic convent, doubtless
found this one somewhat different
from what her distinguished husband
rather more than insinuated that it
might be during his campaign two
years ago.

The, sheriff's office informs us thar
moonshiners were never so plentiful
in Marion county as at present. A
number of small stills !, have been
raided and some of the distillers cap
tured. The stills are mostly crude aft
fairs and the liquor made is from
corn and cane syrup. It is double
proof, with a sickening smell and is
about the vilest stuff ever brewed. It
wouldn't take much of it to make a
man kill his mother-in-law. It is the
prevailing opinion that the mountain
country is the paradise of moonshin-
ers, but the truth is that it is much
easier to conceal still in the Florida
swamps or pinywoods than in the
mountains.

The Times Union has been accused
of being lukewarm in it's enthusiasm
for it's country, but there is certainly
both patriotism and good sense in the
following:
1.-THE American people have put
their strength into the job of whip
ping Germany out of her boots and
belts and uniforms-let those who OBJ
struct the road get out of the way or
they will be run over. 1t matters not
whether the obstruction be capital or
labor, or party or pacifism or noise
assuming the guise of loyalty or love
or hate-away with all these and
more till we have driven our pillow to
the end of the furrow."

AS you will see by his proclama-
ton elsewhere, Gov Cats requests
you, at 8 o'clock this evening, to rise
to- your feet and sing America" No
matter where we are are at that time,
we shall be very careful not to sing,
not because we oppose the governors
patriotic policy, but because we
know il we sung everybody in our
vicinity would be very uncomfortable.
However, we approve of the idea gen.
orally, and, in order to help, our
bright little society editor has placed
the song, "America," at the head of
her first column. You viii have plenty
of time to memorize it by p. m.

It's the Stars opinion that this
country will pretty well find itself
during the spring and summer, shake
itself down, get in good running order
and go better and better until the
war is over. When we went into the
war, we had heap to learn, and a
heap to do.

CORN BREAD

The following editorial from the
Tampa Tribune is as beautifully
written as poem, and forty times
more useful than the average poem;
There is corn bread, and mixture
of sugar and things with raisins in it
that some people call corn bread. {
The real corn bread has no sugar
in it. 1t is made of real corn meal
ground medium fine and sifted, not
bolted. 1t is not made of the so-called
"pearl meal" we see sometimes in
cities, and sold to folks who don't
know. Real corn bread is of two
kinds, that sort made for breakfast
or supper, and the kind made for din.
ner to be eaten with vegetables.
For breakfast, despite the learned
Times-U Union, an egg broken in and
beaten well into the dough or stiff
batter with a little melted grease of
some kind, bacon or lard, makes the
bread an ideally light and tasteful
dish. a0 ft
There are men and women here who
were fed on the scratch backs" of
the old Virginia negro cooks, the "egg
bread" of the same mammies, and
the "corn dodgern that went with the
dinner of bacon and cabbages and
such like.
Those "scratchbacks" were true TO
name, rough-backed fellows that were
as light and melting in the mouth as
bread could be, batter made up of
medium soft" and allowed to stand
some little while before baking-be-
cause meal takes up moisture after
standing awhile-dropped out of a
spoon into hot creased pan and
'patted" just enough to spread ii
without making it smooth, to give the
"scratch back" It came out of the
oven a crispiness that was as brown
and delightful as man could ask.
"Eggbread" was baked of dough
much like that used for making
"scratchback," but it was baked thick
er, in a pan, all in one piece. It rose
thick and light and it was eaten with
butter, gravy or syrup-and any of
them were fine.
But the bread par excellence is the
"corn dodger." 1t was made of corn
meal freshly sifted, salt and water
nothing else used. 1t was made up
"stiff," moulded in the hands by pat
ting and throwing quickly from one
hand to the other, and then laid in q
warm pan, in the shape of small
pones. 1t was baked long and slowly;
and this baking brought out all the
sweetness and the nuttiness of good
corn meal. Any man or woman who
has eaten this "corn dodger" with a
dinner Of vegetables, or else has eaten
it hot for supper with butter and a
glass of milk, knows there is no finer
eating in the land.
Away with the man who feeds on
"hasty pudding and corn dumplings
and meal custards and all those
things where a little meal is used for
the sake of saving or to carry out the
namel
Hail to the old cooks of yesterday,
who knew how to bake corn bread!

Union where pigs are raised in the

The best news in yesterdays dis
patches was that so many laboring
men had resolved to go to work for
the government, and work together,
regardless of whether they were
union or non-union. This is the proper
spirit, and what the country must
have to win. The Star believes in the
good of union labor but the good of
the union of states comes first.
