TWO MORE BARBECUES
ON LAST FRIDAY,
;? -
I went to two barbecues last Fri-;
day, one at Young's Grove where the
campaign lor the varei.ou-e v.as held j
f and one at Mr. D. 11. Uuifacre's near j
St. Phillips school house. There was
a very large crowd at Young's Grove
as there always is on any public occasion
and the speakers who are conducting
the campaign for the warehouse
and other matters pertaining
to the farmers had good attention.
The same speakers that were at New1
berry the day before spoke here 01:
j Friday.
; As stated elsewhere the cotton

i at the meeting at Xewberrv or.
Thursday and the money for his salary
r and other expense pledged. This
jjt -is a great thing for the cotton seller
^ and we should' think n good?thir.g for
R the cotton buyer. He will know
? what he is getting and the seller will
know what he is selling. In, other
r words it stabilizes the price of cotI
ton and the man who has good cotJ

i lor win gei a just price iur a. ^
ft has proven of great benefit where the
r grader has been established. And
| then there will be ample provision
made for warehousing the cotton ir
this county. That will also be a-good;
thing for all parties concerned.
In the afternoon I drove over tc
\ Mr. Halfacre's and there was a good
crowd at his barbecue. It only
proves what has written before that
[ the people seem to be barbecue hun^
gW this year. The crops down this
v " " ' ? -1 -JT
side are 2:00a our mere :? nsea 01
rain particularly for the corn. The
roads dusty and where they have
been fresh worked are especially
dusty and will remain so until there
is a rain and then if they are dragged
they will remain good until winter.

fruit is suitable for pies,

Fruit Canned in Fruit Juices.
Fruit retains its shape when can,

be extracted from the small and imperfect
fruits which are not suitable
1, . for canning whole, or fruit juic?s
hfrcm different fruits may be used.
" Apple and grape juices are suitable

"valuable way of emphasizing the natural
fruit flavor and increasing the
I fruit sugar in the prcduct.
f Canned Fruit Juices. I
[ Prepare fruits as for making jelly. :
Cook fruits in a little water till rei
auced to a pulp and strain. Reheat j
juice to boiling point, pour in sterilized
bottles and seal with cork. Dip
in melted paraffin to insure perfect
seal. Fruit juices * are especially
suitable for beverages, sauces, gelatin
desserts and ices. The juice can
be made into jell^' later when sugar
becomes more plentiful.
> Fruit Syrup.
Extract fruit juices either by cider
press or small fruit press or by boil- j
^ ing in a littte water. Strain through ;
jelly bag. Boll the fruit juice to concentrate
it to the consistency of u
. syrup. Test by pouring: a little in
x cold water. Do not cook until it
hardens when tested in water. Pourj
into sterilized bouies and seal. This j

Jefferson in 1775.
pride and display of the old families
who formed the viceregal court at Williamsburg.
To support the large family of his
mother on their too small farm Jefferson
turned to the law. In seven years
at the bar he doubled his estate and
increased his slaves to 400. Buying
the little mountain at whose feet he
was born, he built upon its summit
from plans of his own drawing, with
bricks of his o^n making, and vrith
wood of his own cutting, the noblest
house in all Virginia. There at Monticello
he made his home ever after.
Jefferson's law practice continued
rapidly to grow until it amounted to
O ~of\ ct vwr whwi hp nhsirutnnojl
forever to prosecute George in in the
great and general court of mankind.
He had heard the first ca!l of the Involution
while a law student in Williamsburg.
Its clarion had been ringing
in his ears ever since he stood, an
eager looker-on, in rhe door of the
house of burgesses. He saw Washington
in his seat and he saw his own
friend, Patrick Henry, a fiddling Virginian
like himself, holding ihe floor
amid cries of treason as he invited the
king to profit by the example of Oae
sar. who had his Brutus. and Charles
I, who had his Cromwell.
The sword, the tongue and tlio- pen
of American freedom were weil met
thar memorable day. After the pen
had waited twelve years for its mm
to speak Jefferson sat in the congress
at Philadelphia. The squire of Monticello
was a silent member, as silent
as the squire'of Mount Vernon. Op
portunity and duty wenr straignt t<?
those t\vo speechless congressmen as
the needle leaps to a loadstone.
After serving as governor of Virginia
and member of congress Jefferson
wa? sent as minister to ih^ court
of France. "You replace Doctor Franklin,"
the Count Venrenner said to him
on his arrival in Paris. "I succeed
him," the new envoy happily replied:
"no one can replace Doctor Franl.Mn."
Six weeks and a day after he had
seen that old France of the Bourbon*
crash beneath the wails of the Bastille
Jefferson left Paris to become onr first
secretary of state. Taking his scat :u
the rijrht oi* V.'ashin.uton lie was face
to face across the cabinet i-a'.Ic with
Alexander Hamilton, the secretary
the treasury.
By nature and training the two
were as opposite in their political opinions
ni iheir chairs, and they found
themselves', as .Te'it'erboii sj'id. '"pitted
like litrlitiriir cocks." As ih-\ i'o'iiihi

name for himself before entering |j

while in the White House, it must be j#
that ho was a good deal of a man but |
not much cf a president.
Like all the more famous Virgin- |
inns, Madison was not of (ho highest g
aristocracy, but the son of a plain, 6
i.velMc-do farmer in an outlying conn- a
ty. His early life was passed at Mont- ja
pelior, the farm which his srundfafner '#
had wrested from the Indians; from $
it ho drew his. only private income, j
;ind at last ho was buried in its soil. 5
He was dependent on his-father until
he- was fifty, when the latter died and i
[he place became his own, with 100
slaves, who continued always to adiress
him simply as "Master Jimmv." ?
i
Standing only live feet six inches s.
md one-quarter inches, he was. with
jrant the smalk. of our presidents. 5
Naturally thin and frail his zeal for '
?tudy nearly wrecked his health while !
t student at Princeton college, where |
"or months at a time he slept only |
;Iiree hours out of tne 'i?. unnne'j m
:or military duty when the Revolution
nine, lie went to the Virginia legisla- w
:ure instead. Yet this sdfemingly ^
iroken-down youn.fr man was destined ^

with the single exception of |j
John Adams. , ja

io time was lost. for. while he was g
