After the business period closed Mrs. Bdd Bumgarner very efficiently led an interesting discussion on "An Egg a Day in a Different Way." She also demonstrated one of the ways by serving creamed eggs on toast, and as "the proof of the pudding Is by eating," it was proved that creamed eggs are delicious. Mrs. Bumgarner also showed the difference in appearance of an egg boiled ten minutea at a rapid rate of speed and one boiled the same length of time slowly. After the discussion by Mrs. Bumgarner, the Club members repeated the Lord's Prayer in unison. During the social period the hostesses served delicious pumpkin pie, turkey shaped sandwiches, and coffee. Favors on the plates were nut shells filled with "corn candy," which were pasted on a card with a turkey stamped on it.

SOLUTION Dear Editor: . v Much to (being said about the scarcity, conservation and high prices of grain, but no one suggests a solution to the problem. A surrey of existing conditions In our community—a scope from Millers Greek to Purlear, prompts me to write this letter. The fields that formerly produced corn and wheat are now covered with pines, thus reducing the production of wheat approximately 300 bushels and corn 1000 buahels. Conditions are probably the same in ftther localities. The reason is: The younger folks have left the farm for public works. Most those left on the farm are the older folks, many of whom are disabled. Our people feel that they can't afford to pay the high prices for grain to fatten their hogs, feed their stock and their chickens. The result is less meat, fewer eggs and less milk and butter. We .need a solution to this problem and I think it possible for us to solve it. As the price is governed iby the supply and demand, we recommend the following solution: Let every man who is farming Increase his orop by one acre of corn and one acre of wheat. Let every man who is not farming who is able to work and has access to land, grow one acre of corn and one acre of wheat. (It is not too late to sow the wheat). It may seem a sacrifice but I am confident it will produce favorable results. The following is an excerp from Blum's Almanac of 1888 which may be applicable to present day conditions. A farmer was hoeing hard on his patch of land when one of those town loafers approached the fence. "Hello Farmer B, what do you think of the outlook?." "What outlook?" "Why, the business outlook". "Didn't know there was one." "We are all thinking about it down at the store, and they sent me to hear what you had to say". "Oh, yes, I see, well, tell 'em if they Will stop tallftng and gib to hoeing, that the country will prosper without any outlook. Do you hear?" JAS. T.
