As the cotton goes to the gin the time is
at hand to select seed for next year's crop.
If no good seed are available, and seed of an
approved variety, a determination to buy
better seed should be carried out. They will
be cheaper for the next several months than
they will be next spring.
Club Districts Will
Meet In October
During the month of October
thousands of federated club women
in North Carolina will attend the
district meetings being held in each
district in the State. To each, Mrs.
Howard G. Etheridge, of Asheville,
State president of Federated Wom
en's Clubs, and Mrs. Britt,
Second Vice-president, and chairman
of districts, will go.
The district meetings will provide
Jin opportunity to meet in person,
the State officers.
"One of the most lasting benefits
derived from the district meetings
is the information about project
work and the inspiration dis-semi
nated through the exchange of ideas
in the individual club reports,''
thinks Mrs. Etheridgo who was
chairman of districts two years ago.
The 'first district meeting will be
that of District No. 1, which will
meet in Bryson City, October 2, and
will continue through October, 22,
until the sixteen districts have held
their meetings.
The Eighth District, of which Mrs.
E. R. Anderson is president, will
meet Tuesday, October 26, in Chapel
Hill.

HOW TO MAKE SAUERKRAUT
Since writing an article on the
healtlifulness of sauerkraut, I have
had a great many inquiries for a
recipe for making it. I am giving
here the government recipe.
Four-gallon or six-gallon stone
jars are the best containers unlets
very large quantities are desired,
in which case kegs or barrels may
be used. Select only mature, sound
heads of cabbage. Quarter and slice
off the core. For shredding, a hand
shredding machine is best, though an
ordinary slaw cutter or a large
knife will do.
Fermentation is carried out in the
brime from the juice of the cab
bage extracted by the action of salt,
One pound of salt to every 40
pounds of cabbage makes the prop
er strength of brine. This may be
distributed as the cabbage is packed
in the jar or mixed with the shred
ded cabbage before being packed.
Thus the distribution of two ounces
of salt with every five pounds of
cabbage is probably the best way to
get. even distribution.
The cabbage should be packed
firmly but not too tightly in the
jar or keg. When full, cover with
a elean cloth and a board cover
or plate. On the cover place a
weight heavy enough to cause the

From our observation of him in his gov
ernmental positions since we can remember,
we have become great admirers of John
Nance Garner, Vice-President of the United
States and as such presiding officer in the
Senate.
We believe that he deserves to be called
a real statesman. We also believe that with j
his statesmanship he is an excellen tpoliti
| cian. No statesman can get far under the
American plan of government who is not.
Garner knows what he wants to get done in
the senate, and just how to go about get
ting it done.
He is no wild-eyed radical, nor is he a
shell-backed conservative. He is just a safe
an dsane medium between the two ex
tremes. He never rocks the boat.
A mighty sound individual, John Garner,
and one who even lends dignity and import
ance to the position of Vice-President.
Bound for the Scrap Heap
Proud days of mighty power are no more! The scuttled German
battleship, Friederich der Grosse, was salvaged from Scapa Flow. It is
shown being towed, keel up, to a dry dock at Rosyth, Scotland, where
it will be broken up.
brine to come up to the cover. A
flatiron or other similar weight will
do.
If the jar is kept at a tempera
ture of about 86 degrees fermenta
tion will start promptly. A scum
soon forms on the surface. As this
tends to destroy the acidity and
may damage the cabbage, it should
be skimmed off from time to time.
If kept at the temperature indicated
fermentation should be completed in
six to eight days. After fermenta
tion ia completed, the kraut should
be set in a cool place,—P. M. 8., in
