Homemakers’ Clot Meets With Mrs. Davis 30 members and guests of the . Burnsville Homemakers’ Club spent a very enjoyable dafy Fri day at the home of Mr. artd Mrs. Floyd Davis, with Mrs. Myra Smith as co-hcstess. A covered dish lunchecn was served at one o’clock, and it was the opinion of all that Bur nsville can boast a lot of good cooks, and our summer guests are included in this number. There were some very unusual and tasty dishes. After a gab feast and luncheon these present got down to ser ious business, when Mrs. Davis and Mrs. Smith taught the group the art of making a re ligious symbol found in the In ru es of an Indian tribe in Mexico. It is called Cjo de Dias, mean ing “The Eye of God”, and is made of brightly colored yarns, using the cross as the base. Seme of the guests were very apt students, while others less talented found it more difficult. The result was a very attractive and meaningwul work of art. Beside the regular club mem bers the following guests were prerent: Mrs. Eddie Joyner, Asheville; Mrs. Robert Tilson, FRESH RAINBOW & SPECKLED pwp r-fF* I MOUNTAIN TROUT I j D ' rect From Pensacola I ffiSjff I Delivered I Sugar I B: Zay l S TA I /TV l°*/m L \ftrl Premium T | Velvetta Cheese I Chicken Breast \with $5 .00 Grocery Order!

Herb Bread At a covered dish luncheon of the Burnsville Homemakers' C’ub last week, it was agreed that the unusual recipes of the members are too good to be kept a secret. Therefore, beginning with this issue, we are printing one recipe, and if members (and nen members) will cooperate you may lock forward to a tasty recipe each week. Herb Bread, the ricipe for this week, was contributed by Mrs. C. 0. Ellis. Ingredients 1 large carton cottage cheese 3 tablespoon butter 3 packages yeast % cup warm water with 1 tea spoon sugar added. 6 to 7 cups all purpose flour 3 tablespoon dry onion flakes 6 teaspoon dill seed 6 tablespoon sugar Va teaspoon soda 3 eggs. Heat cottage cheese and but ter and add to yeact, which has been dissolved in 94 cups warm water. Beat 3 eggs well and add to cheese and yeast mixture. Sift into large bowl flour, sodsr and sugar. Add dry onion flakes and dill seed. Stir cheese and yeast into flour. Knead several minutes (will be lumpy at first, but keep working). Let ri~e. Make into leaves or rolls and let rise again (should be about double its size). Heat oven to 350 degrees and bake until rea ches the brown and serve stage, then turn oven to 325 degrees and complete baking. Should make about 4 small loaves. Time To Fertilize Strawberry Plants Now is the time for gardeners and strawberry growers to fer tilize their strawberries. They are now forming fruit buds for next year’s strawberries. The phosphate and potash level should have been broukht up prior to setting. You should ap ply 20 toi 25 lbs. of total Nitro gen per acre in mid August and 20 to 25 lb. of total Nitrogen in mid September. A 100 lb. bag of Amcnia Nitrate has 33-5 lbs. of total Nitrogen in it. This split application reduces fertilizer injury. Later cn in the fall the plants should be mulched with pine needles or seme type of grain straw which is free of seed. This helps protect the plant during freezing weather, conserves moisture, and helps to control weeds. Applications should be made when tempeature is around 20 degrees F. This is usually around Christmas time. This mulch also helps keep the berries clean at picking time. To Interview Civil Service Applicants Miss Lavon Watson, civilian Navy representative, will be in the Asheville Recruiting Office for one mere week ending Aug ust 25th, interviewing and test ing applicants for Federal Civil Service positions as typists and stenographers in Washington, D. C. Liberal fringe benefits along with excellent starting salaries are available for those who qualify. Call 243-1831 for more information or for an appoint ment. THE YANCEY RECORD i. If.
