EPICUREAN GEMS
Attractive Folder Issued BY The
Del Mar-Va Association


The Del Mar Va Shore Associa-
ton has received from the printer
the new edition of the Del-MarrVa
Products and Recipe folder for dis
tribution in answer to the many
hundreds of inquiries which have
been received asking for this special
piece of literature.
The original Products and Recipe
folder issued by the Association be-
came extremely popular in connec-
ton with the five weeks radio pro-
gram which the Association carried
out two years ago. Since that time
the original lot of some $1,000 fold
ers became exhausted and several
weeks ago, because of the heavy de-
mand, appropriation was made for
an additional 10000.
In preparing the new folder the
Publicity Department added four
pages and arranged to carry as
center display the recently issued
new map of the peninsula. Other
new features which add materially
to the attractiveness of the folder
include a photograph OF Aunt Ada
line Wheatley, an IS year old Negro
cook who has been in the family OF
John A. L. Radcliff's of Spocot
Farm, near Cambridge, Md, all her
life and who has been mistress OF
the Radcliffe kitchen for more than
ed as one of the few remaining ante
bellum cooks who is still active and
her connections are rated among the
foremost of Del-Mar-Va delectable
dishes. Five splendid views of Del
Mar Va products direct from farm
and field to table are also new
features.
Recipes included in this folder
have been entirely revised so that
they are typical of the Peninsula and
lheir ingredients are almost entirely
Oel-Mar-Va products. Miss Ruth
Powell, Instructor of Home Econom-
les, at the Maryland State Normal
School, Salisbury, rated as an au-

checked all as being workable.
Four typical southern menus are
also offered with a variety OF dishes
20 be selected for each meal.
One of the usual features among
the recipes carried is instruction for
the preparation OF Canvassback,
Redhead, Black and Mallard ducks,
being the widely famed recipe used
by United States Senator 7. Coleman
dupont, which was given national
publicity sometime ago in feature
article published by the Saturday
Evening Post.
The new folder contains twelve
pages and is attractively illustrated
with scenes presenting leading Del
Mar-Va products and including
views of Del-Mar-Va highways.

FARM Cosrs MUST BE CUT

Farm costs must be cut il profits
are to be enlarged, declares we'll
known South Dakota farmer, in the
current issue of the Public Service
Magazine. He adds that the diff
Guilty of hired help makes it abso-
lutely incumbent upon the laboring
farmers to combine their operations
and to cooperate with one another
wherever possible.
The telephone, long since indis-
pensible in the industrial world is
now being adopted by farmers to
lower overhead, increase production,
simplify operation and control
markets. Quick communication has
become as necessary to the farmer
as it is in the industrial world.
Pending the arrival of the era of
| the large, industrialized farm, the
smaller farmers, now minus hired
help, must exchange labor to get
tasks done This has been accom-
plished in certain sections by what
is termed threshing circles. Each
farmer shows up on the appointed
date with team and rack and col
lectively the men do the job, but
the interesting fact-and it is mute
evidence of the value and import
ance of the telephone to the farmer
is that each circle is comprised OF
farmers who have service on the
same party telephone. This is so
essential in the handling of large
crews of cooperators that they ma
.urally group themselves along the
quickest line of communication.
Thus, all the farmers on one party
line are organized into one group
and those on the next line into
another group. The same principle
is likewise applied to other coopera-
| tive operations besides threshing.
In the vicinity of Columbia, S. d.,
| )ne place where the group method
| is employed with much success, the.
| members work together in this way
| .or at least fifty days of the year,
| sometimes more. The circles are
built up around the telephone, which
is considered just as necessary and
| important a factor to modern, eff
Gent farming as are any other Ia
| oor-saying devices now being used.
| At the beginning of the present
year approximately 100000 tele-
| phones were located on American
arms, an increase of about 100000
! since 1920, despite the fact that in
| the same period the number OF
| ARMS in the United States has &C
| sually decreased by 100000. On
The basis of 6,371,640 farms report
ed by the Bureau of the Census in
connection with the 1925 farm cen
sus, over forty out of every hundred
! farmers now enjoy telephone service
| and IA per cent of the country's tel
sphones are located on farms. The

Transatlantic telephone service

With the extension of this service

FEED SURPLUS CORN TO HOGS
AND CATTLE, JARDINE
ADVISES

Agriculture would benefit and a
minimum disturbance of prices Tor
all the commodities involved would
follow, in the opinion of the Secre-
tary of Agriculture, w. M. Jardlne'
if 100000 bushels of corn were
devoted to the additional feeding OF
cattle and hogs this year. How
ever, he warns against the produc-
ton of hogs heavier than the deslr-
able market weight, because price
determinations against too-heavy
hogs would serve to offset the value
of the extra weight.
"An increase of 5 pounds in the
weight of the average hog" says
Secretary Jardine, lis as far as
hog feeders should plan to go THIS
year" An average increase OF b
pounds in the weight of the 45,OOO'-
900 hogs fed on the 1928 corn crop
would mean the consumption Oh
about 2O,OOO,OOO additional bushels.
Secretary Jardine believes cattle
feeding is preferable to hog feedlns
in many respects as a method Oh
utilizing more corn, and says, "op-
portunities Tor feeding about 2z'-
OOO, 900 bushels of corn deserve the
consideration of cattl m e n. 1t
takes about 200 pounds of shelled
corn to put 100 pounds OF gain on
2-year old steer. At this rate e.
225,OO0 steers fed to be 100 pounds
heavier by corn feeding would con-
sumo approximately 32,OOO,OOo
bushels of the crop. This is prob
ably a very conservative NUMBER
being only half of the steers slaugh'
tered annually under Federal In
spection.
"The advisability of feeding sur
plus corn to cattle rather than to
hogs" he continues, lis plainly evil
dent. Two and quarter million
steers, each fed to weigh lOU
pounds more, are equivalent to
about 124,OOO,OOO pounds of dress
ed beef, or pound per person
This is not sufficient increase to
affect prices seriously or to onset
the 10 per cent decrease in the mum
Der of cattle killed within the last
year. The heavier feeding OF corr
should be on the lighter cattle, since
there are signs of a plentiful supply
of heavy cattle in the summer OF
1922"

Silk Industry Old

According to Chinese records the
filament produced by the silkworm
was first successfully woven by ST.
Ling-Chi, empress of China, in 27O0
B. G. It was not until the Sixth cen.
fury that the art of making silk was
introduced in Europe. In 1909 James
l brought the silkworm and the mul.
berry tree into England and shortly
after this the Company of Virginia
was formed by group of Englishmen
to promote the silk industry in the
United States. The first experiment
met with disaster. Four years later,
Influenced by the crown, the colonial
legislature passed an act requiring
ten mulberry trees to be planted on
every hundred acres. There was a
fine for neglect of this duty and u
premium for every pound of silk pro
duced.

Remembered Famous Jump

Little Kathryn, who was driving
through the country with her uncle,
clamored to be taken back to the city,
claiming that there was nothing to
see in the country.
"Why," said her uncle, trying to dis
tract her attention, "see all the pretty
cows over in the pasture, and they
can't hurt you because there is a
fence around them"
Kathryn was silent a moment and
then expressed her skepticism. "Huh, "
she said. "a COW jumped over the
moon once, so I don't see why it
couldn't jump over fence. "-Chil.
