THE FARM BUREAU—
The Farm Bpronu la a nation wide
farmers’ organisation, now having n
paid-up incmberBhip of more than a mil
lion and a quarter.
It i» largely through its atrength and
influence that the West 1ms helped tlio
Soutli in securing the pnssage of such
hills favorable to agricultural interests
as have been passed by Congress; and
tho organization is doing really valuable
■work on nntiounl marketing and legisla
tive questions. The annual meeting of
this grent organization will be held in
Atlnntn this fall.
Our Stnto organization, known ns tho
Goorgin Fnrm Bureau Federation, has
undertaken tho task of organizing the
State, of improving marketing conditions
by tho formation of commodity associa
tions and of a Stnte market exchange,
but it has been greatly hampered by the
lack of funds. About 12,000 mombers
fcnvo been enrolled in tho Slate, but
owing to tho financial stringency, in all
pars of the State just, ns in our own
county, only nbout 3,000 have boon aide
to pny their dues up to the present.
In order to tide tho organization over
and trusting in the sincerity of the
pledges mndc by tho membership, some
of the Stnto officers—notably R. A. Kel
ly, president—have ndvnnccd out of
their own pockets several thousand dol
lars to pny organization expenses, to
maintain Farm Bureau headquarters,
and such service ns could bn given. We
cannot afford to lot theso public-spirited
citizens suffer on account of our failure
to redeem our pledges, and we cannot
afford fo let the organization fail.
Under tho now order we are going to
have to fnce marketing and credit proli
lenis which cun only bo solved by wlr
co-operative organization ns this. Wo
have already largely (rented the i.i-
rhinory for the purpose which prompt
fulfillment of our pledges and a little
work in extending the organization will
anve. We cannot afford to scitip it and
start over again.
Our county federation and local coun
cils have been greatly handicapped by
tho financial stress. Tho shortage of
fluids, both ns nn organization And as
individuals, hns prevented us from tak
ing advantage of opportunities—ns, for
example, the co-operative buying of fer
tilizer. However, it is undoubtedly
true flint the price secured by tho Farm
Bureau was the immediate enuso of
lower prices locally.
The same Inek of funds limited the
number of potato curing-houses, but
through Farm Bureau agitation somo co
operative houses have boon put up, and
it seems probable that, through tho ini
tiative of the Fnrm Bureau a curing-
house will ho operated in Nownan this
fall, nftor every effort to socure ono
through private or business initiative
had failed.

cording to Government recipes. Our
preserves, too, are packed so that they
arc indeed very pretty. Ginger products
also como under tho head of preserves
We ndd ginger to the syrup in which the
product is cooked, or beil tho product
in ginger ten.
Tho conserves arc a new product to
many people, but arc Jjked by everybody.
Last week I made some fig conserve!
for a woman in Michigan, She tasted
it, and wanted some. Conserve may lie
made from a number of different kinds
of fruitH. To make conserve use from
to 4 pounds of fresh fruits, such as tigs,
peaches or grapes, (using the hulls and
pulp,) or one quart canned fruit, i or 2
oranges, 1 Vi pounds sugar, % teaspoon
salt, Vi cup nuts, and Vi tfound raisins.
Cut all except the nuts into small pieces
anil cook until thick and transparent.
Add tho nuts five minutes before re
moving from the stove; pack in steril
ized jars and process 30 minutes. In
processing use jars of any kind, but do
not have them air-tight. Looson the top
or lift the clnmp on I3-Z senl jars be
fore processing, but do not forget to
tighten it when removing from the wa
ter.
We aro also taught to make different
kinds of jams ami marmalades. The
kinds me too numerous to describe here,
Spiced grapes, grape mincemeat ’ and
grape catsup como under this head
These products arc cooked until trans
parent, and processed 20 lo 30 minutes.
Next we have tho sauces. The two
principal 4-H sauces are creole and chili
Creole iiause is made from tomntoes
green.) red -sweet pepper mid onion,
seasoned with celery seed, sugar mill
parsley. Tt is used in oiqelctcs, in soups,
and with various kinds of meats.
i’ll roe is nuido from small or broken
tomatoes, conked until tender, then
strained and cooked thick. It is used
as the foundation for soup and the
sauces.
The most important of tho pepper
products are Dixie Relish, B. S. Chutney,
and stuffed poppor Mango.
I must not fail to mention grape juice.
Use sound, fully ripe grapes, crush them
by hand or in n clean cloth or snek—or,
better still, in a homo-made grope crush
er. Strain the juice, put it in sterilized
bottles or fruit jars. Process 30 minutes
at simmering, and seal witli corks or n
bottle-capper. Sealing wax may bo
bought, or made by molting togother
equal parts of rosin and beeswax.
We arc taught to make baskets of
willow, plno needles, rattan, and rnflia.
Many pretty ones have boon made by the
club girls.
Wo nrc taught to make wool and or
gandie flowors, which if used at the
right time and place nre vory attractive.
Wo all have to make our uniforms, which
include cap anil apron. Besidos, wo
make our gnrmonts, which differ accord
ing to tho nuniher of years in the club.

8500,000,000 ADDED TO COTTON
VALUE.
Manufacturers Record.
In the Inst Blxty dnys the advance in
cotton has made the new crop anil the
carry-over worth nearly $500,000,000
more than they would have been worth
at the prices then prevailing. Moreover,
the gambling bears woro bent on beat
ing prices still lower, but fortunntely
they have been caught in their own trap
ami arc being right gloriously punished.
This $500,000,000 means a-change dif
ficult to exaggerate. It will wonderfully
affect the whole atmosphere of the
South's business and agricultural inter
ests; it will save many a man and many
n business from bankruptcy; it will re
vive trade; it will nourish every iudiis-
t,y with new life blood; it will quicken
the liopcH of the disheartened; it will
put new courage into nil the people; it
will show the tremendous blunder com
mitted when the former Administration
curtailed credit and killed the War Ki
na nee Corporation, and it will prove the
power f •!• good of the freer credit and
the re-establishment of the War Finance
Corporation.
This advance will also show the wis
dom of a reduced cotton acreage, with
an increase in foodstuff production. In
(his lesson the South should find the road
lo permanent prosperity, greater than
it hns ever known.
If the South will, now ami forever,
be independent and rich, let it cut its
cotton acreage heavily for all time to
como and intensify the acreage it does
cultivate in order to reduce the cost of
production and then concentrate on
foodstuffs for itself and for the coun
try. Then homc-mndo fertilizers will
enrich its soil, grain ami grasses and
cattle and hogs will diversify its agri
culture, enlarge the horizon of its far
mers and ndd enormously to their pros
perity. Never was there a better object
lesso* than the present.
If the Booth had raised 12,000,000
bales of cotton, tho price would proba
bly have gono to 0 cents a pound; but
with a crop of only about 7,000,000 bales
the price has gone to more than three
times that figure and many a farmer
will 1 now live who at (i cents would have
been hopelessly bankrupt and in pover
ty for years to come. A crop of 12,-
000,000 bnlos with a carry-over of, say
8,000,000 in round figures, or 20,000,000
bnlos, at 0 cents would have been worth
duly $800,000,000, Which Would have
meant bankruptcy for tho entire cotton-
growing interests. A 7,000,000 bale cfop
and a carry-over of 8,000,000 bales at
oven 18 cents a pound would bo worth
$1,350,000,000.
Lot the South reverently thank God
for this increased wealth, take courage
nnil go forward with new zeal and on
orgy.
Here is another argument in favor of
good roads:
A couple presented themselves before
a justice of the peace and requested
that the marriage ceremony be perform
ed. The judge asked the usual questions
ns to nnmes, place of residence, age,
etc., when ho noticed behind the lady a
little girl of two years.
“How about this little miss?” he
asked.
“I'll tell you how that is, judge,”
said the mnn. “You see, we were going
to get mnrried throe years ago, but the
roods were so darned bad we couldnt’t
get to town.”

Havo you missed them? Surely not.
For a week and more it hns been a glo
rious spectacle—these sunsots in Sep
tember. Tho days have been hot and
wearying. But how the memory of the
distressing heat of the midday has been
swept away' when the eventide has come
and thfe glow of the sinking sun has
filled all the world with boauty.
We have greatly enjoyed observing
how these slmsets havo impressed :Lo
pooplo wo have seen in these recent
dnys. Thore was n streot car in the
late nftornoon with its load of weary
workers and from out the windows here
and thore wore beautiful faces lighted
with the glow that came to them ns
they lost thomselvos in perfect worship
of the beauty of the grent picture there
in the heavens; and tho iittlo child there
on the sidewalk standing in perfect for
getfulness of her companions in their
engaging game, rolling her big blue
eyes from one peak to another of the en
trancing sight she behold; and there on
the porch that looked out towards the
west an elderly ami enfeebled man feast
ing his meaningful oyos upon that pano
rama which bockoned him on to the
Land that is fairer than day.
We thank God that we can see so
much of beauty ns is found in one glo
rious sunsot, We find oursolves praying.
Anything that causes us to pray is good
for us. Let us not he unmindful of the
sunsets—these wonderful September suu-
sets. For, if we observe the sunset we
will observe the evening star and likely
wo will pray with Tennyson Hint when
that last sunset, comes and we shall
cross the bar, we may meet our Pilot
