THE CAIRO MESSENGER. FRIDAY. NOVEMBER 5TH, 1937.
DAUGHTER’S FRIEND
SLAIN BY STRINGER
METCALF MAN HELD FOR HIS
SHOOTING OR M. M.
MASH, 21.
W. H. Stringer, 59, a prominent
resident of the Metcalf community in
the southern part of Thomas county,
is held in jail at Thomasville on a
charge of first-degree murder as a
result of his fatal shooting of his
daughter’s friend and escort, Madison
Monroe Mash, 21, of the same com
munity, on Thursday night of last
week.
In jail at Thomasville Friday Mr.
Stringer gave no explanation of his
act other than to say that he will
make his statement to a jury of
twelve men.
The tragedy led to much sorrowful
comment throughout this section,
where the families involved are wide¬
ly connected. The shooting occurred
at the home of Jonah Stringer, half
brother of W. H. Stringer. The lat¬
ter’s daughter, 'Miss Harmogene
Stringer, who attends school at Thom¬
asville, remained there Thursday af¬
ternoon and attended the Thomas
County 4-H Club Fair, after 'which
sne proceeded homeward in a car with
young Mash, Mrs. Deklet, sister-in
law of the victim, and Mrs. Dekle’s
three children, officers reported. As
they arrived at the Jonah Stringer
residence about 7 o’clock in the eve¬
ning, it is said, W. H. Stringer walk¬
ed up to the driver’s side of the car
and began shooting Mash. The young
man was shot four times with a .32
caliber revolver ar.d death was almost
instantaneous. The shooting occurred
as Miss Stringer sat in the car beside
her escort. Mr. Stringer was arrest¬
ed a short time later.
The 1938 Agricultural Conservation
Program will be based upon the at¬
tainment of national, state, county
and farm “goals” for soil-depleting
crops, and for soil-building crops and
practices, as a part of the effort to
restore soil fertility and stabilize ag
ricultural production.

HOME ECONOMICS
NOTES I
By CORNELIA DANIELS, Co. I
Home Dem. Agent.
CONSERVING FOOD
VALUE.
Vegetables, more than any other
kind of food, need scientific cooking..
Some of their most important nutri
tive values are easily lost in cooking,
and this is less true of other kinds
of foods. We depend upon vegetables
and fruits for a large share of
mineral substances and vitamins
are required to keep our daily food
supply in balance and our bodies in
good condition.
If all the vegetables were eaten
raw, we would get more of their min¬
eral and vitamin values than we do.
That is one reason food scientists so
emphatically recommend raw cabbage,
raw carrots, raw turnips, celery and
lettuce. The vitamin C in vegetables
is very easily lost in cooking, except
in the cooking of tomatoes, where the
acid serves to prevent the destruc¬
tion of vitamin C. Vitamin B is less
easily destroyed, but it, too, is af¬
fected by heat and water.
To overcome these difficulties and
to avoid nutritive losses so far as pos¬
sible, different rules apply to the
cooking of different kinds of vege¬
tables.
Baking in the skin is the ideal way
from the standpoint of food values,
to cook potatoes, sweet potatoes, and
quash, for example. Baking in a
covered dish, a casserole, accomplish¬
es the same purpose in vegetables
that can be cooked without adding
water. Panning, or cooking in a cov¬
ered pan on top of the stove, using
little or no water, is another appli¬
cation of the same principle, and can
be used for a considerable variety of
vegetables.
Steaming is the second best meth¬
od from the standpoint of preserv¬
ing food values. Many vegetables
can be steamed,
Boiling, the most common method,
calls for special precautions to pre-
vent loss of food values. Three im
points to observe are these:
(1) Cook vegetables only long
enough to make them tender but
leave them firm in texture.
(2) Cook them in as little water
as possible. Some, like spinach, in
just the water that clings to the
leaves after washing. Brussels sprouts
cauliflower, on the other hand
need water enough to cover.
(3) Sene the cooking liquid if
pOSSlble ’ fo r !t contains ”iuch of the
mmt>1 su , stances and of the
some
vitamins dissolved in cooking the
vegetables. Gravies, sauces, souds,
and seasonings can be made with this
coo in f 1 icquid, if it is not feasible to
serve it with the vegetable itself.
It is true that Sally Rand has made
a lot of money, but what has she got
to show for it?” asks an editor who
has not seen Sally Rand.—The Thom
aston Times.

Tobacco Farmers, Take Notice!
We want those farmers only who sold tobacco with Jones
& Spence in the Pelham Warehouse, Pelham, Ga., in 1935
to mail us your tobacco sales bills for that year so we in turn
may send your name, address and amount due you, to the
U. S. Court for a refund of the commissions due you. Our
list has been lost, stolen or destroyed, and we have no other
way to advise the Court how much is due you. Please tell
your neighbor about this, as we want every one of you to
receive all that is due you.
We will return every bill sent us.

A slight weakening in the domestic
demand for farm products during the
remainder of 1937 is indicated by the
U. S. Bureau of Agricultural Econ¬
omics. This belief is based on the
prospect that the recent decline in
industrial activity will be reflected in
consumer incomes before the end of
the year.
