Canned Apples.


If you happen to possess an apple
tree full of apples now why not car
some for winter use when the fresh
fruit is not at hand?
Canned apples are quite as good
in apple sauce cake as fresh ones
They can be used for sauce, In pud-
dings, and make very good pie
when pie timber" is scarce.
Can them with or without sugar.
If canned with sugar they will re-
quire no sweetening when used.
Canned without Sugar
Pare, core and quarter apples. Be
sure to cut out all blemishes. A
bruised spot in an apple will not
cook tender, but will become hard and
tasteless by cooking. Put into pre-
serving kettle with enough cold water
to cover and cook until tender, but
not broken. Put into sterilized cans
and seal. The cans must be brim-
ming full and the fruit. and strip
boiling hot when sealed. Wrap
towel around the cans to prevent
breaking the can and burning the
hands. Wiring towel out of hot wa
ter and entirely cover can.
To use for pie, drain apples from
juice. arrange in pie shell and sweet
en- to taste.
For sauce put contents of can in
sauce pan add sugar to taste and
heat thoroughly.
Or apples can be put UP by the
cold pack method.

 M. Perkins, sexton at Oak Hill cemetery, Thursday reported an attempted grave robery in which ne had an unusual experience as well as a few kicks and knocks W ednesday morning. Perkins states that a short, fat, red-faced man approached him at the ceme- tery and engaged him in conver- sation. The man wore a collar and tie but had on overalls and appeared to be dirty and greasy as if he had been on train. The man made proposition to MT. Perkins that they go in together and rob four graves of gold and diamonds. Perkins declined, Whereupon the stranger told him he could make more in three hours robbing graves than he could make in four years as sex ton. The strange man produced a bottle of whisky and acked Mr. Perkins to drink with him. This offer was also declined. The stranger told the sexton he would see him again and that he had a partner in the grave robbing busi- ness. Perkins reported the oc- currence to the chief of police. Of ficerS made a search for the grave robber but failed to find him.
 A few days later the man re- turned with his partner, a tall, dark man. The tall man drew q ~ pistol on Perkins and said he had good will to shoot his heart" cut for reporting the robbery proposition to officials. The tall man struck Perkins on the back of the head with the pistol and the fat man joined in kicking him. p7oBId u97q sBq uBmQ9lgM lQ5!u V 'NBM 9uIBs 7ul L9lBMLeL pue LG7d.O lp9I pInoM N9Ql p9YJeW 5J N7ql polJHd9p sTuoQS eql sE in Oak Hill cemetery.

 Advent of the army worm in cot ton fields of the Tennessee valley is causing concern here, it became known Thursday. Announcement was made by County Agent J. c. Ford that supply of calcium arsenate mas been purchased for use in poi soning worms and boil weevils. Farmers were requested to get in touch with the county agent regard ing the crusade against the cotton pest.
 Officials of farmers organizations have expressed the belief that if the pest is fought hard and long right now it will be eliminated be- fore serious damage has been done. Quick action, however, is urged.
 Reports from many sections of Madison county received simulta- neously tell of the sudden appear ance and amazing spread of the army worm in the cotton fields They were first seen in that section Monday and by Wednesday they had spread amazingly and were eating the green on the cotton stalk so fast tlat in the two days of their pres ence a difference could be seen.
 Farm bureau officials have urged the planters to make haste and combat the insect and there is @ great demand for poisons, which will be dusted on the cotton plant Ac- companying reports of the wide preva alence of the cotton worm are reports of great swarms of grass hoppers which have appeared in the cornfieldS

The port enabling act carrying the substitute which was adopted by the house committee on rivers and har- bors Wednesday was given favor able report by the committee at the session /, the \ use of representa- tives Thursday. This will put the bill on the calendar for consideration Tuesday afternoon.
 The favorable report was made by unanimous vote of the committee at short session which was held shortly before the legislature began its session.
 Under the terms of the substitute the state harbor commission, which has been in existence since 1915, will be abolished, and in its place will be created the state docks commission, composed of eleven members, one from the state at large and one from each of the ten congressional uN tricts.
 This substitute also carries pro- visions requiring the approval of the governor of all plans for the con Structfon of terminal facilities, the approval of all expenditures except the weekly payrolls and the assent of the governor to every action of the commission.

 T believe the legislature is in duty bound to enact legislation which will make effective the will of the people as expressed by the >doption of the constitutional amend ment' said Judge Sollie in discuss ing the port enabling act. But, at the same time, I believe the people expect their lawmakers to throw the penditure of the funds which will be derived from the issuance of state port improvement bonds.
 There is no doubt that a majority of the lawmakers have views simi- lar to mine and sincerely desire to enact law which will give the state seaport and which, at the same time, will prevent the expenditure of state funds unnecessarily"
 Judge Sollie explained the opposi tton was about 30 members opposed to any port enabling act, and that one-half of the remainder want an act which will build port without the unnecessary expenditure of funds, while the other half are will ing to accept any port bill which may be offered. He said he was sure an amicable understanding will be reached.

PLAN MEMORIAL
Massive Tomb in San Domingo May
 Re Erected

CLEVELAND. O., August 11.-A project is now on foot to erect a massive tomb in San Domingo City to the memory of Columbus. It is to be modelled somewhat after the tomb of Napoleon in Paris. and the exterior something like Grants tomb In New York. A beacon tower 800 feet in height is part of the plan. Unfortunately, the bones of Colum- bus, which were removed from Spain in 1540, were often opened for in- spection to distinguished visitors. The authorities say this should be stopped. It was that very fact which first suggested the idea that it should be the concern of Pan -Ameri = cans. the peoples of the 21 republics occupying the territory of North and South America and Canada to pro- vide suitable memorial and final resting place for Columbus in the "Chadle of America" as Santo Do mingo is called
