S. and North Carolina Departments of Agriculture reported today. The high protein feed mar kets were particularly weak. Soy bean meal was quoted 1.00 to 2.50 lower in producing areas as larger supplies became available and dis counts from current prices were giv en on deferred deliveries. Cottonseed meal was lower except at Texas mar kets, Linseed meal held firm as mar ket supplies continued small. Number 3 yellow corn and Number 3 white ats sold at Chicago at the equivalent of about 15.50 per toh with the De cember corn and oats futures at Chi cago at the same level. The index nf wholesale feed prices dropped to 91.9 (1935-36 —100) compared with 94 0 a week earlier. Compared with last week’s sum mary, strictly choice medium weight and weighty steers were steady but comparable yearlings and all other grades of yearlings and weighty steers were unevenly 25 cents to 1.00, mostly r >o. to 57 cents, lower at Chicago. The decline was the sharpest in weeks and fell on substitution grade of steers and yearlings which have been sell- SALLY'S SALLIES Registered U. S.

DAILY DISPATCH ISAJTURDAY, OCTOBER >22,1938 ing top-heavy high considering beef markets. Grits and Graveß ♦ * ♦ ♦ By T. MOSES JONES As the time of writing this is Fri day morning, last night must have been Thursday, the date set for the big barbecue supper out at the Ay cock school. And to the P.-T. A. ladies and Mr. Poe I wish to state that I greatly appreciate their kind in vitation to come out, and eat with them and meet the folks of that com munity! But I had previously ac cepted. an invitation out to Sam Blackwell’s corn shucking supper. (Miss Maggie Garrett, did you hear that?) * So I truly hope the barbecue sup per turned out to be a highly de-ap petizing, as well as financial, success, and that all who attended had a nice lime. As for the supper I attended, well .t seemed from the spread of food on the table, that preparations had been .joing on for weeks. But 1 am about o get ahead of thinks. Fenton Seat met me on the corner about six .hirty, as soon as he got off from /ork. We went by his house for his \viie and baby, and also collectea ames Regan, the next door boy, anti away we went down the Virgilina cad a-scooting, until we turned oti m the dirt road. W*hen we got there the yard was jll of cars and we at once began to oar that ail the supper had been eat on. The crowd had already eaten iinner, and some of the men wen. lome and did not stay to supper, several tables full had finished sup ;er, but there was plenty for us. I here ask the operator to kindly A'ork himself up into a slight sense jf disconseiousability, so that he car ret this copy without it making any .mpressions on his mind, as I am joing to mention the names of several things which might tantalize him. This is what was on the table, and I ate some of each mentioned article: water and coffee; , biscuits and. corn bread; chicken and dressing; sweet potato pudding and cocoanut pie; oeef and ham; butterbeans and tur nips, cabbage and brunswick stew; oeach pickle and—l don’t remember he rest, but that was enough. The funniest think I almost ever heard was Mrs. Blackwell telling the ladies this: “I have dreaded this day ever since we planted corn.” And yei there is as much truth and reason in that as anything I everheard spoken, for it is something to dread to fix dinner and supper for thirty or fort} folks and have something good i L them to eat. And after our table full, there were yet some of the ladies who had not eaten. Then we went into the parlor and heard Clarence Bailey spin some of his yarns, and they are yarns of a par-excellent variety. The radio ran a while, and then Fenton and Creigh ton and myself gave them a good fooling in the line of music. But the crowd sang a lot of songs which drowned our racket and the singing was very good. Sam Blackwell is Mr. Bob's oldest son. His wife is W. H. Milton’s daughter. Fred Blackwell, wife, and children were there. Mr. and Mrs. Jack Parham and children. Jack is the singing man. He should have been named Sam, so he could he call ed “Singing Sam.” Mrs. Sam and Mrs. Fred and Mrs. Jack are sisters Mr. Bob, up in his eighties, enjoys music as well as the younger folks. His other sons, Roy and George, were also there. It would not have been complete without George West and family. And then there were Mr. and Mrs. W. C. Critcher and family; Mrs. Lelie Seat and Creighton Nannie Ta tum. Bob Lee Hart sat in the corner. juf*t like (' .Jack Horner, and looked like he was skeered to speak to any one. He never will get married if he doesn’t learn to talk more, and faster, and longer. With this I again bin vru a-dew! T. MOSES JONES. Bruce Barton praises what ho call? the “reborn” party of Republicanss. Inasmuch as the question of the y ungs’er's education is bound to c r me up sooner or later, we’d like to suggest tba'; there are .some good schools in Maine and Vermont.
