. To Serve Strawberries.
Popular as the strawberry is, says
the New York World, very few
households know the delights of it
when served in Unaccustomed forms.
Shortcake for example is a by word
but shortcake is seldom made prop
erly. Riirhtly constructed, this del
icacy is of two sojianvte sorts the
genuine sionge cake variety and the
real short cake, a biscuit paste maue
with baking powder, and split and
the berries placed between and on
top, , the whole being afterwards
covered with a rich cream. For the
other sort of thort cake the sponge
cake is baked in round tins, and
each laver is surmounted with whip
ped cream and well sugared berries
laid closely tocether.
A Drettv and deliehtlul way oi
serving strawberries is with the hulls
on, and,dipped in sugar. TUey are
then eaten trora ou tne nun, neia
between the fingers. The method
nrevents all loss of iuice. and has
the additional advantage of the ber
ries not having been handled or
touched by water. If they were
properly picked no dirt remains on
them.
Strawberry Bavarian cream, straw
berry cream tarts and strawberry
svllabub are other pleasing varieties
of a dainty ' sort In making the
second of these, stew the berries and
mix with corn starch, adding whip
ped cream when this mixture is put
into pastry
For svllabno put tne berries into
the-oven and strain out the juice to
add to whipped cream.

into small cocks.- No rolling of wind
rows is allowable, but if raked it
must bo pitchod into cocks as de
scribed in Bulletin No. 73. p 147 of
tho N C. Experiment Station.'
When the windrow has dried so

Examination of.the cocks will m-
dicate-how much handling should
be given. These may; stand from
one to several days according to con
dition of clover when put up and
the weather, but they should not be
left long enough for mould to start
in the clover r
On a bright rooming when tho
outside has nearly dried off, begin
to handle the clover by taking up
thin layers and reversing, lake hi

top of the cock rests on the
rround. If all dry servo the next
lnycr the same. .1 oward the bottom
the clover will he damp, then green
and wet. Shake this up well and
lav on ton as loosely as possible.
The shaking in the sunshine airs and
dries the clover,-and reversing in
this way brings the part which needs
further curing to the surface. At
tho same time, the limp green clover
hangs down over the top and sides
in such a wh' as to protect the dry
bottom and middle of ttie now cock
from rain if moderate showers fall
on it If neod 1e, go over tho
clover again but unless very heavy
on the ground or bad weather, en
sues, cocking over once will be sum
cient. When apparently ready to
Btore begin early before the morning
dew is oft and load the very dry est.
Then before going to the barn or
stack, examine enough for next load
and probably tne bottoms oi tne
cocks will be found wet. Tip them
Mtom up by first setting the fork
at the edue of the cock so the ' 'lift"
on the fork will be opposite the
usual work with it Make a forward
movement in lifting and the cock
rolls over while the reversed fork
does not disturb the clover but slips
out easily. Turn the cocks from the
sun so the damp pia. es may nave
the benefit of its direct rays.
These directions should be mod
ified in practice to suit special con
ditions, and the weather, which
can not be controlled. Here is
where eood judgment is needed.
In saving seed of crimson clover
cut as soon as plants liavo as
sumed a rich golden yellow and
the seed has . hardened. Do not
wait for it to get "dead npo" be
cause too much of it will be lost
If tho clover is mown by hand,
keep the scythe sharp and carry
the clover all into the swath with
j a regular steady stroke.
It can bo
handled then much better. On
small scale, it may be best to leave
it in swath until . ready to house
and thrash, which must be as soon
as dry; or else turn the swath l
heavy ty inserting a broad long
tined fork to the length of the tines
and when tops lie together " rum
over toward the buts ot the culms.
When this vide is dry (but not dry
enough to lose leaves or seed) pitch
to small cocks and from these to
the tight bottomed wagon which
carries it to the stack or threshing
floor. Be sure that the unloading
and storage places have clean

ied, together with other bills, 'An

Other Like Conveyances in North

on the same day, within the spac e
of a few hours, and returned it with
the others to the office of said
Brown and read it over with said
Brown to see lhat it was correctly
copied; that this was the only one
of said bills to which" there was an

this was: 'Amend by striking out

' Tho newspapers have discussed
more or less the causes that have
brought about the present agricul
tural crisis in the south, and how
best to remedy it, toneet it Among
thoso who have written thoughtfully
upon the subject is Mr. C. H. Otken,
of McComb City, Miss. He dweHs
upon the need of "an efficient labor
system" for the south. Tho negroes
are lading after 30 years of freedom
to justify expectation or to meet the
demands of the farmers. Mr. Otken
says, and it is worthy of the atten
tion of all fanners who employ labor
jn the south: ,
- "He may be tho best laborer that
the south can obtain, and it may
still be true that ho is inefficient
By inefficiency is meant that the
product of his work docsf not com
pensate tho employer for the .wages
paid him, or for the capital invest
ed." ' ... ' " ',; ;
He gives ono very suggestive il
lustration. - If what he says is well
based, then it is a fact beyond ques
tion that the. south docs badly need
a better class of laborers. . What are
the facts he presents ? Let . us
quote: - -j ; -: . -
"A negro in 1860 produced on an
average nvc bales ot cotton, lou
bushels of corn, 75 bushels of sweet
iiotatoes, besides field peas, fodder
and pumpkins. , He helped to raise
hogs, and so made the meat supply.
From the time the crop was gather
ed ho was employed to prepare the
farm for tho next year, , splitting
rails, repairing fences and doing
other needed work. 1
"In 1894 the average negro pro
duced 3 bales of cotton and 60 bush
els of corn. He raises nothing else.
From December to March following
his work is zero. He is the most
contented being on , the American
continent" .
With these figures before you,
what nonsense to talk of the plant
ers at largo making 4 and 5 ant
cotton. But there are other factors
not to be overlooked in considering
tho depressed condition of farming.
V ithout touching on the hiuuicial
or tariff tax aspects of the situation
now, and how they injuriously effect
tho farming interests, there are other
factors to be omsidered, and of ih se
Mr. Otken writes interestingly. . The
first is the obtaining of annual sup
plies tho ruinous credit system,
begun in 18G5 and continued for 30
years. Mr. Otken says that "to
this source is to be traced tho debt
burden, .Cotton at five, four," or
even three cents, would not bo -so
serious a matter were there no debts.
As selling ofi credit, on long time
to all sorts of people, is a risky bus
iness, the merchant naturally pro
tects himself by high prices to cover
his loesess. 1 he credit charges are
25 er cent above the cash. It, is
regarded as a moderate estimate,
The negroes generally pay more."
lie ulso notes extravagance in
purchasing and deficiency of food
crops and meat. The south is im-1
E roving in the home supply matter,
ut very much is to be done. Last
year the hog crop was much in ex
cess of other years. It can be easily
doubled or thribbletL Mr, Otken
says that 10.000.000 boss are raised
in seven states; W,UW,VW can be
raised. Tho time, care and labor
now given to several million bales
of cotton in excess of the the demand
under existing circumstances would
make the southern states indcend
mt as regards corn and bacon.
This is true. Grow doublo the corn
in 18D5 that was grown in 18(J4 and
feed the hogs so the product of meat
will double, .it will be a better ana
safer investment than cotton at "b
cents or even moro. Then diversify,
other crojHi, making many things
not now cultivated. '
Kince this was prepared - Mr.
Julian Ralph, a New York writer of
ability and much olcrvation, has

In it he shows bow lnemcient is tne
