Not so long ago. tomatoes grew in old fashioned gardens as “love apples,’’ to be looked at but not eaten. Later it was discovered they were good to eat. The first tomatoes canned were a delicacy, but today, toma toes can be bought in seme dozen different forms ranging from whole tomatoes to tomato paste.

In fact it might well ba termed the “little brown jug” of Volstead days containing as it does Nature’s own “kick” in its amber liquor. If Rip Van Winkle had gone to sleep in the Hawaiian Islands and had awakened one of these fine mornings near a pineapple planta tion he would have thought the lit tle men with their kegs of whiskey had turned into plants and their kegs into new and odd shaped brown jugs with stoppers in the tops from which green pointed leaves were sprouting. Many delicious drinks that Rip Van Winkle never heard of are made from the liquor yielded by these little brown jugs. There are pineapple lemonades, fruit punches and ices as well as the plain iced pineapple juice, so agreeable to the palate and so beneficial to the health. The juice from a can of sliced pineapple may be used in these drinks, the fruit being re served for salads, desserts, or fruit cocktails. Or the canned pineapple juice may be purchased without the fruit. Here are three excellent drinks that may be made from this juice: I Subscribe for the Record f $1.50 per Year costing less, and very delicious. Crushed pineapple is primarily a culinary ingredient. It is just as choice as the slices—in fact, it is even better as far as flavor is con ceived as it comes from the cuter portion of the pineapple, nearest tl ? shell and this shell is nearest the sun. The juice is pure juice of the pineapple, unsweetened so that it can be mixed with other liquids in sundaes, pudding sauces, etc. It contains all of the rich mineral properties and vitamins w T hich i": ke pineapple so vital a part of itiie health diet.

It comes not back again; wisely improve the present. It is thine. Go forth to meet the shadowy future without fear and with a brave and manly heart.” This week's agricultural news is a continuation of last week’s article entitled “Have You a Farm ing Program”? and is taken from North Carolina Agricultural Ex tension Service Farm Program for 1927. “The following information is given byway of explanation so that each farmer may take into consideration his own local condi tions and so plan his farming en terprises that he will meet his own needs for food and feed crops and also produce a surplus. Growing Feed for livestock. A good ration for one work animal for one year is approximately 50 bushels of grain and two tons of hay. All of these products can be grown on the average cotton farm. One inerchant in a typical eastern cotton county sells on an average to farmers 7nore than 2,500 tons of hay per year. Other merchants in the same county are also selling hay. An average of one ton of hay can be, and is being produced per acre in this sa7ne county. If this hay were grown instead of being shipped in from other states, it would require about one-fourth of the 25,000 acres now devoted to cotton in that county. Similar conditions exist in other cotton counties. Gardens. A garden plot of one naif acre is ample to furnish a family of five with a complete and balanced supply of vegetables, to gether with a surplus for storing and canning. The all-year garden can be made to supply fresh vege tables at different season in the year, and a small amount for sale. Poultry. Each family should have at least 50 laying hens. In Order to maintain this number, it is necessary to raise at least 100 young chickens. The cockerels and most of the birds may then he sold for cash and the remaining hens and pullets carried over for the future. Records of many poultry growers in the state during the past few yeai*s show that with pro per n7anagement and feed each hen will return a net profit of at least 52.00 per bird per year. This offers an an7iual opportunity for farmers to have a constant income throughout the year, and, in addi tion, to supply the family with poultry products. Dairy products. It is now agreed by physicians, health officials and nutrition investigators that milk is an absolute necessity for the proper growth of children. In a large number of cotton counties there is now an average of only one cow to each four or five families. The annual feed requirements for an 800-pound cow are approximately 15 bushels of corn, 10 bushels of oats, 500 pounds of cottonseed meal, 200 pounds of bran, and two tons of legume hay. There should also he in addition two acres of good pasture. The use of this milk and butter in the home will l'esult in better health, a reduction in doc tor’s bills, as well as the saving from the reduction in other food products now purchased. Pork. Each farmer should keep one brood sow and grow at least 7/0 litters of pigs each year. This would require approximately 125 bushels of coin, and in addition 50 pounds of fish meal and 50 pounds of wheat shorts for each pig. When properly fed, this amount of feed will produce more than one ton of pork. Wherever the farmer has surplus corn, it can be marketed through hogs to greater advantage than by selling it as grain. This has been proven by several hun dred farmers who have fed and sold thousands of head of hogs during this year and have received a re turn for their corn of almost $2.00 per bushel. This offers an excel lent opportunity for the production of the necessary meat supply for the farm, and also as a substitution of a money crop in the place of cot ton. j Cotton Production. It is seldom profitable to produce cotton under North Carolina conditions when the yields are less than one-half of a bale per acre. With the present conditions, it is imperative, there fore, that those lands planted to cotton be restricted to such soil as will produce at least one-half bale, and preferably three-fourths of a bale to the acre. An actual study made in 1924 of 147 farms showed that ten acres yielding 493 pounds of lint per acre were equal in pro- THE CHATHAM RECOKB fits to 29 acres yielding 243 pounds of lint per acre. All ground that will not produce one-half or three fourths bale per acre should be planted to other crops for soil im provement or other purposes. Other Money Crops. The cotton farmer who also has a tobacco crop this season is in much better con dition than the man who has only cotton. The same condition pre vails with those who are now. growing other cash crops along with cotton. However, a large in crease in tobacco acreage in 1927 may result in bringing about the same situation with tobacco as is now the case with cotton. A num ber of farmers have already ex pressed themselves as intending to plant all tobacco in 1927 in the place of cotton. Such a plan if carried into effect, will be fatal. Relations. North Carolina far mers now use 7iiore commercial fertilizer than any other state. This is an expense that must be paid from our money crops. If a de finite rotation which includes le gumes is followed it will result in improved fertility of the land with greater yields per acre, and a cor responding decrease in the produc tion costs of our crops. At least one-fourth of the cultivated land should be planted to a legume crop each year. The College of Agriculture be lieves in this program because it has proven successful with many farmers in every county in the state and all county and other ex tension agei'ts will devote their ef forts to its full fruition.” NOTICE OF FORECLOSURE SALE Under and by virtue of the pow er of sale contained in a certain deed of trust made by D.

Missing 13 Years, Returns With Wife 1 Fortune Spent Trying To Find Chas. Sattler—Comes Home With Wife and Child. Quakertown, Pa. —Charles Sat tler, in the search for whom a for tune has been spent since he disap peard from his heme here more than 13 years ago, returned to day with his wife whom he married in Florida and their seven-year-old son. Sattler, now 34, is the son of Herman Sattler, wealthy Quaker town silk manufacturer. He left home October 11, 1913, after a dis pute with his father. Believing he had met with foul play, after he failed to return within a few days, the family started a nation-wide search, which continued until young Sattler’s mother died two years ago. No trace of him was ever found. Today there was a happy reunion at the Sattler home. The young man motored here with his family from Florida, where he is in busi ness. Sattler said he had worked in Philadelphia after leaving home and later went to Florida. Dur ing the world war he was in charge of the battery service of the army airplane base at Miami.
