COOPERATIVE PLAN
TO FEED THRESH-
ING CREWS
Women Solve Problem Efec.
lively in One Rural
Community

Threshing time is anticipated by
the women folk of the farm and
by the men folk as we'll, with dread
or with pleasure according to the
amount of help one is able to get
and the custom of the community
in which one lives. In some places
where the neighbors all pitch in"
and help each other in turn, the
occasion is looked upon as a sort
of jollificaion. A gala day is made
of threshing time and fine dinner
prepared in short time with every
body lending helping hand. In
most communities this cooperative
custom has been abandoned to
considerable extent if not all to
gether, and the work of preparing
for the dozen or more men who
ordinarily compose these crews-a
strenuous task which comes at the
very hottest part of the summer
seasons looked forward to with
no very pleasant anticipation.
One community called Harmony
Corners, whose slogan is, "a long
pull, a strong pull, a pull all to-
gether," has solved the problem in
a unique way, which may furnish
an idea for other communities.
First of all, they raised their
church so that a good basement
could be built under it, with par
lors such as many town churches
have. The men did most of the
work themselves and the women
raised the money necessary to
equip dining-room.
Many of the dishes were donat-
ed, the men built tables and
benches and it was not long before
they had enough to make modest.
start. The first summer the wom-
Ell decided to serve dinners 10 the
threshing crews and found that
they could serve all crews en-
ployed within a radius. of five
miles. They fixed their prices so
that they could make a profit of
ten per cent. The men were con-
veyed back and forth in automo-
biles. They could reach the
church from any point in the FIVE
mile radius in fifteen minutes, and
there was always time, therefore.
to wash up, eat, and return to
work on time. The pfan was
wholly successful and solved a diff
ficult problem for many house
wife.
Once a month they serve dinner
to the members of farmers club
which meets there, and to a wom
ems club which assemblies to dis
cuss household topics, exchange
dress patterns, crochet patterns
and magazines. They have adopt
ed also the novel and labor-saving
scheme of specializing in the kind
of plants raised-that is, one
woman will raise cabbage plants
in her hot bed; another, peppers:
another who has better success
than her sisters with flowers, will
raise those and then they will ex-
change when the plants are ready
for transplanting. This method.
they state, with pardonable pride,
gives everyone an opportunity to
indulge in her hobby and yet have
a fair return for her labors.
What this community has done
any rural community may do with
the same effort and the same as
surance of pleasurable reward. In
many communities, hay packing,
wood cutting, road building and
other activities bring groups of
men who may be fed in this way
by the cooperative effort of several
householders instead of by the
single effort of one with made
quate help.

A Simple Luncheon Dish

To make an appetizing luncheon
dish serve fried egg on Duttered
toast and serve with Creole sauce.
For the Creole sauce mince two
green peppers and one small onion.
Add one cupful tomato pulp, a
bit of bay leaf and cook until
onion and pepper are tender. When
seasoned with butter, salt and
pepper pour over the egg on toast.

VACATION TIME

Vacation time is here again;
It's time to plan our outing.
Where shall we go?-
To Kokomo?-
Or where the geyser's spouting?
The magazines and Sunday sheets
Are full Of illustrations,
And tell you where
To catch a bear
At all obscure flag stations.
We go and buy an Outdoor Life,
And Field and Stream and Outing,
And live the joys
Of all the boys
Who favorite spots are touting.
We take our books to Jackson Park
And lie down on the clover,
And read and wish
That. we could fish
And our vacations over.
Landlady-The coffee, am sorry
to say, is exhausted, Mrs. Smith.
Boarder-Ah, yes, poor thing! l
was expecting that. I've noticed
for some time that it hasn't been
strong.-London Answers.
