Sweet cream is good, but Mrs. Mclnnes says it is not real cottage cheese I unless you have the cream sour. Mix it well, using enough cream to make it smooth. Put it in a jar and keep in a cool place. As I have said before, it may be substituted for cream cheese in sandwiches, salads, etc. » You will need about one gallon of clabber to make a pound of cheese and may use cream enough to make it like a thick batter, if you prefer, Club News I j The July meeting of the Home I Demonstration Club was held at Wakefield on Wadnesday p. m. in the dub house. Mrs. Mclnness gave advice and suggestions as ti the use of a steam pressure cooker. She also discussed the rural electrification plan.

De tails will be announced at a later date. Mrs. Elmer Finch will have charge of the local porgram at the August meeting. Quadruplets Tour North Carolina i i Far less famous than the Dionne quintuplets, but well known and talented, the Keys sisters of Okla homa are touring North Carolina. They are quadruplets, are twenty years 014 have studied for two years in Baylor University, Texas and are the only set of quadruplets | known to have grown to maturity. I They w ere in Greensboro this week sponsored by the Kiwanis Club. County Makes Big Profit On Bonds ! County Treasurer Milton Man gum is a money-maker for himself and for the county, too. Several private businesses in which he has a financial interest have begun to show profit as soon as he becomes intererested. But he does not neg ' lect his duties and he brings to the office he holds for the coun ty his knack of making money, j Recently the treasurer bought and sold for the account of Wake | county a few state bonds. When the deal was all finished up the (county had about $3,000 more than it had to start with. I McDonald Would Pay the Teachers From Emergency Dr. Ralph McDonald, co-leader 1 jwith Mr. Lumpkin of the anti-sales I tax bloc in the recent legislature himself a school teacher and the t i friend of teachers, comes forward ) with a suggestion that the Governor earmark” about half of the half million dollar contingency and emergency fund for the purpose of paying all teachers a 20 per cent increase in salary. Dr. McDonald, along with several other members of the house, declares that it was the intent of that body to give the teachers a 20 per cent raise. If the ■ noney appropriated is not adequate for that purpose, then that is what the emergency fund is for However, the governor is not apt to use the emergency fund for that 1 purpse and the teachers probably '! will have to get along on less than , 1 20 per cent raise. ! The suggestion coming from Dr. • McDonald will not do him any harm > if he decides to run for governor. i\ r Read the Record a<b as well as the news. Patronize advertisers. County Tax Rate May Be Cut to 77c ___ I Final action on the county tax | rate for 1935 may be taken next week. Tentative budget adopted at sessions of the board this week will | require a rate of about 78c, with a i chance that it might be as low r 77c. The county wide rate last year was 85c on the SIOO There will be a reduction also in the special Ra leigh township school debt tax, and this may be cut to about 15 cents, j Good collections on the delin quent tax accounts in the clerk of court’s office, as well as higher per! centage of current collections by the sheriff, helped to make the re duction possible. Modifies Ruling On Chain Station Tax Commissioner Maxwell has very materially modified his former ruling on the chain gas station tax, but even under his new ruling the i tax will tend to drive the oil com panies from the retail service field. The commissioner holds that if a retail station uses a tank pump with an advertisement of any par ticular oil, that that station be comes a “chain” station of the oil company owning the pump. It is i further possible that under provis ions of the act as interpreted by | Mr. Maxwell the same filling sta tion may belong to several chains and be subject to full tax on each. Meantime major oil companies are surrendering leases on filling stations and the industry is revert ing to open and cut throat compe tition between standard and “boot leg” prducts. I N. C. Farmers Get ' Over $13,000,000 North Carolina farmers received this year over thirteen million dol lars in benefit payments from the federal government, according to recent publication of figures. The tobacco growers got more than half the total or about seven and a half million dollars. Cotton farm ers received about four and a half million. Com-hog farmers got over three quarters of a million, while wheat growers drew about $75,000. Besides these payments more 11 than a million dollars was spent in North Carolina by the AAA in administering the various laws and j disbursing the benefit payments. ! Revival of Gold Mining in State Gold mines in FYanklin county | are being opened for work again..! In Cabarrus, Union, Stanly and 1 Montgomery counties also aban doned gold mines are being worked The increased value of gold makes smaller production more valuable. Then, too new methods of milling the ore offer prospects of profit in mines that have heretofre been un profitable. In 1924 one acre of lespedeza was planted in Alrftander County; j in 1936 there are 5,366 acres plant ed. This is 14.2 percent of the cul- [ tivated land in the county. FLAPDOODLE Hr By The Swashbuckler —O Boys, Howdy! Sidney Eddins and Bill Fletcher take not only the proverbial cake, but also the whole dam pastry shop to boot. On Saturday last, they were busy-bodily making Charlie Rhodes’ 4-months-old Dodge look like new. While using a piece of chamois to the best advantage Sidney’s face suddenly underwent an unpre cedented change as though he had suddenly been approached from the rear. “Yuh know what?” Sidney ejaculates, “An idear just hit me.” “Is that so?” I expostulated. “Yer dam right it’s so,” stated Sidney. “Well,” I said, “Get it out before it’s too late.” Passing this remark jover with a pitying smile. Sid con tinued. “Yes sir, I just got an idear on how to save a fortune. All we got t’ do is plant a chamois tree in the comer of the lot there, and then when we need a piece of chamois, all we gotta do is pull one off the tree!” “That’s an ex cellent idear,” hutted in Bill the Fletcher, “But for the fact that chamois is a mountain antelope and the chamois we use is nothing more than his skin.” “Geee,” sigh ed the saddened Sid, “That’s too bad. Maybe we could get a chamois and tie him on our lawn then?” "By George!” shouted the hereto fore sensible Bill, “We’ll do that! And when we get ready for some chamois skin, we’ll just run out and cut off as much as we need. Boy, oh boy. I gotta hand it to my self for that one. Why in one year we could save fifty bucks and fifty bucks at 6 per cent would * * * *” Unfortunately, the roar of my mo tor drowned the last of Bill’s speech. But should you see a young and tender antelope cavorting about the Standard Station’s lawn, think nothing of it, my friend, think nothing of it. My nephew came in the other morning and with all the versatil- I ity of a two-year-old asked. “Have 1 you got a penny?” “Nope”, I re j jdied. “Then, I wish I had a nickle, I’d buy me something.” “I don’t have a nickle either,” I said. “What have you got?” he questioned. “Oh,” I said jokingly, “Fifty dol lars.” Not to be put aside the lit tle one ups with, “I wish I had fif ty dollars, I’d buy me something.” Yea. verily, another Wimpy. By the way. Who was the young gentleman in one of the beauty j parlors getting a facial and an eyebrow plucking. Not to mention ' | a manicure. Whoops, my dear! Whoops! NUMBER 3
