No group of financial institutions in the state can boast of a cleaner rec- ord of stability than can our buillding and loan associations, and the aver age interest yield on money invested in these associations 'last year was .05928, or nearly 6 per cent. Yet mil lions of dollars, went out of the state ta various forms of securities, paying not any bettr return, and no doubt many of them of doiibtful value.

Right now we are enjoying varieties of the native muscadine type, such as the Scuppornong, James, ' iMish and Thomas. "The grape is also a wonderful little storehouse of valuable food elements. Raisins are famous for their iron, but this element is much more , palatable and present in as great quantity in th grape. Grape sugar, which is one of the chief factors in the fine flavor of grapes, is the most readily digested of alt forms of sugar.
