Trim off the green tops, and cook the onions in lightly salted boiling water unti tender, in an uncovered vessel. They* should be cooked tender in about 20 minutes. . Drain, and season with melted butter, salt and pepper. Have the toast ready and serxe at once. X In order to make the first few strawberries go a long way, cream together a third of a cup of butter three-fourths of a cup of powderec sugar, and one-e’ghth teaspoon of salt. When thoroughly mixed, add the stiffly beaten white of an egg and one cup of fresh crushed straw berries. The acidity of th^ berries causes the sauce to separate some what, but this can be overcome by Warming it slightly over hot water and stirring until smooth. Serve at once on cup cakes or cottage pud- -ding, or chill to make thicker.

X DAILY THOUGHTS Mr. Ivey Sutherland •f Died Last Thursday On last Thursday morning, May 3rd, just after the rays of the rising sun had brightened all the earth, the spirit of Mr. Ivey Sutherland re turned to the God who gave it. Mr. Sutherland’s health had been failing for some time, and for the past several weeks the faithful phy sician who attended him and used every effort known to medical sci ence, held out no hope to the anxious father, sisters and brothers who were nursing him so tenderly and faithful ly, and for several days his death was momentarily expected, yet it came as a shock and a grief to his many friends throughout the state. Mr. Sutherland died at the home of his sister, Mrs. A. P. Murray, on South Main Street, Anderson, S. C., where he had been since February. He was the eldest son of Mr. J. F. Sutherland and the (late Mrs. Suth erland ( who was Miss Mamie Ivey before her marriage) and was born October 27, 1881. He was an up right conscientious Christian young man with many noble traits of char acter. In early life he united with the Baptist Church here and was always a true and faithful member; he was also a member of the Young People’s Christian Union here and was faithful and true in service and attendance. During his illness this union re membered him with loving words of cheer with a post card shower on the very beautiful Easter morning, and was quite a joy and pleasure to him. He was also an enthusiastic member of the Masonic Lodge at Calhoun Falls. This Lodge had charge of the burial service. He spent 5 years as passenger agent at Port Royal, S. C., and dur ing his illness, the family received many anxious inquiries from a host of friends who appreciated his worth, Mr. Sutherland’s body accompanied by friends and the entire family (ex cept^ the sick brother) was brought to Mt. Carmel Thursday afternoon and the funeral service was held Friday morning at 11 o’clock in the A. R. P. Church, conducted by Rev. E. F.. Gettys and Rev. L T. Pressly. The Masonic Lodge, acting as hon orary and active pall bearers, escort ed the body to the cemetery and Messrs. Cook and Hagood conducted the ceremony with prayer by Rev. R. C. Boulware and others; he was laid to rest with the Masonic hon ors. Messrs. Cleo Tucker, T. V. Ayer, W. H. Thomas, R. L. King, S. (J. Eubanks and L. L. Hester were the active pall bearers. Many beau tiful flowers were silent tributes of esteem. He is survived by his father, Mr. J. F. Sutherland, two brothers, Messrs. Ji. J. Sutherland of Ander son and Ben Sutherland of Greens boro, N. C.; two sisters, Mrs. A. R. Murray of Anderson and Mrs. J. T. McCrorey of Rock Hill, S. G. The bereaved family have the sym pathy of many friends. The dead are like the stars by day. Withdrawn from mortal eye But not extinct; they hold their way, In glory through the sky. _X Bacterial blight is one of the most widespread diseases affecting beans. The infection is first indicated by very small, water-soaked spots on the undersides of the leaves. Later they quickly enlarge to irregular brown spots with bright yellow bord ers and sometimes cover the greater part of the leaf. On the pods the disease causes irregular water-soak ed spots which become reddish and sunken. Redd'sh streaks develop lengthwise of the stems. This disease can be controlled by the use of seed from d’sease-free plants, planting western-grown seed if possible. It is best to cultivate or pick the beans only when they are dry, and the use of bean straw as a fertilizer or feed should be avoided. S. C.

XX* People sometimes wond r if the rings seen at times near th* sun and moon signify any change i n the weather. These rings arc observed only when there is a th'n veil of cloud in the sky and usually—about three or four times out of five—rain or snow will occur with’n 24 hours. The dip, or tipping, of the moon, con trary to popular belief, has no weath er significance whatever; this is simply an astronomical occurrence that can be forecast accurately hund reds of years ahead.
