; FARM AGENT CALLS
ATTENTION TO LOSS
IN ROUGH GINNING
The cotton producer loses any
where from $5 to $lO per bale when
cotton is rough ginned and if gin cut
around $5 per bale additional, accord
ing to County Agent Bill Brigham of
Seminole County.
He added that the amount of rough
gin cotton can be materially reduced
if the cotton producer will pick his
cotton clean and dry and deliver it to
his gin in such condition that a good
] ginning job can be done.
“The ginner can do his part, too, by
; having his gin in first class condition
] and ginning his customer’s cotton
with the loose seed roll,” the county
agent said. “The percentage of rough
gin cotton in Georgia for 1940 was
i nine percent of the crop. You can
I readily see, therefore, how several
i hundred thousands of dollars can be
l eaved by cotton producers by adhering
] to these simple practices.”

HowTo Make
Peach Pie For
Hot Summer Days
?
Delicious peach pie is a traditional
desert feature that is always popular
at this time of year. Peach pie looks
and tastes good and it brings any
meal to a satisfying climax.
From the Georgia-Carolinas peach
belt comes this new recipe. Try it.
First remove skins from peaches.
This is easily done after allowing the
peaches to stand in boiling water just
one minute. Cut in eighths and cook
until soft with just enough water to
prevent burning. Sweeten to taste.
Cool and fill crust previously baked.
Cover with whipped croam, sweeten
ed and flavored.
Below is a recipe for 6 pie shells to
be used as needed:
Pie Mix
6 cups flour. X
2 cups lard.
4 teaspoons salt.
Sift flour, measure and add salt.
Cut lard into flour and salt until the
crums are the size of dried peas, cov
er and place in refrigerator until
ready to use.
Pastry Mix
1 1-2 cups pie mix.
2-4 tablespoons ice water.
Add water to pie mix, small amount
at a time, mixing quickly and evenly
through the flour and lard until the
dough just holds a ball. Roll on slight
ly floured board and line pie pan and
filling as directed. This pastry may be
used for the cobbler and pan pie.
(Serves six).
Adequate protection from fire is
the greatest need in forest manage
ment, in the opinion of Extension
foresters.
