URGES FARMERS TO GROW
MORE SORGHUM CANE

lIcAh pdkC OuCJ
The Early Orange cane grows on
an average, very stalky with thick,
heavy stalks measuring at the base
from 31a to Az inches in circurlfe'- :
ence and from 10 to IL feet high.
When stripping make two wooden
knives about 2h feet long, cut of
thin boards whiting out handle at
one end for hand holt and whittle
an edge on the knife, leaving the
back square. take two rows iat a
time walking between them knocking
off the leaves or blades with your
knife, when you top it off, cutting off
just below the top blade. When you
get four rows striped or bladed, then
with a good butcher knife take a
row at a time putting your left arm
over a hill bending it down, clipping
off all the tops at the first leaf, then
cut it down close to the ground with
a corn cutter and ~ it in piles

Editor Banner-News:-
In last weeks issue
We note in the proceedings of the city
council that Mr.. George w. Holmes
was before the honorable body, ask
ing that the council provide uniforms
for the band. The matter was re-
ferred to the respective committee.
Now the writer heartily endorses
our city band and also our city coun-
Gil. This is not written in the spirit
of criticism whatsoever, but l for
one, am opposed to our council using
the city's money, for such purposes,
and question their authority to do
so in this case. While we know the
boys need uniforms, and that the
city needs band, we know also that
our city needs side walks, streets
fixed up, etc, and We think this mon
ey should be spent in that way
making the streets more safe, beau
tiful, etc.
Would suggest that in order to
obtain the necessary uniforms, the
boys have a benefit ball game, or
benefit dance, fair, ETC., all pro-
ceeds therefrom TO 90 toward the
purchase of the uniforms; even a
popular subscription would not be
out of order-say house to house
canvass-also the business men as
we'll This would give all a chance
to help and not burden our city dads
who already have burdens of their
own-namely: putting in sidewalks,
repairing sidewalks, fixing up streets
bitches, etc.
1t all costs quite sum and the
taxpayers are entitled to recognition
in these matters and we feel sure
our honorable council, will go slow in
this matter and render the best SER
vice wherever possible. But bear in
mind, we are not kicking on having
band, not finding fault with our
council-but merely calling attention
to the practice of individuals maxi
ing demands upon the council, when
the money is sadly needed for other
things as beneficial and as far reach
ing as band. Let US hear what
others have to say.--G. C. Algee. ~

The writer was recently shown
through the kitchen in the Dehn
Sons restaurant at the corner of W..
Main and Pleasant streets and we
want to say right here that so far
as cleanliness is concerned the boys
have the place right next TO godli-
ness. The kitchen is also arranged
SO that all rush orders for meals and
lunches can be taken care of with
the least possible amount of time
and effort and is one of the best
equipped places of its kind in this
section of the state. Too frequently
the idea is entertained in eating es-
tablishments of this kind that the
kitchens are places where any insan-
itary coalition could prevail so long
as the proprieto.s can get by with it
but visit to the Dehn Sons kitchen
will convince anyone that no home
in this city could have a cleaner or
more tidy cookery.
