HOUSE

HOME
By Mary E. Dague

Our church circle made
some old-time pomanders for
the Christmas bazaar this last
year and they proved so popu-
lar that we have made dozens
since by order. So if you are
racking your brains for some-
thing different for your Easter
bazaar you may like to try
these scent balls.
Edith Elliot in sunny Cali-
fornia gave me the idea and
Fm passing it on to you. Take
a small, thin-skinned orange
and stick it just as full as you
can with whole cloves. Boll in
powdered orris root and wrap
in waxed paper. Store in a
close tin box for a week or so.
Then wrap in cellophane and
tie up iu a pretty box for dis-
play and sale'
Our great-grandmothers
sometimes used apples instead
of oranges to make their po-
manders when they were bad-
ly in need of a scent ball for
their closets.

- Do you serve the same
foods in the same way day af-
ter day without benefit of
change? If you do it’s * great
pity because cooking is much
more - interesting if you vary
your dishes. Even such a
simple favorite as ginger-
bread can be varied in dozens
of different ways.
Gingerbread cup cakes fill-
ed with whipped cream or
with a cream cheese are a
pleasant surprise but use the
self-same recipe that you
would use for a plain ginger-
bread baked in a pan. Add
shredded cocoanut to the gin-
gerbread batter before bak-
ing. Dates, raisins, nuts, can-
died orange peel, citron, one
or all can be added before
baking to make an entirely dif-
ferent version of the good old
standby.
THINK
When you buy on price and price alone.
You know not what you get—
So why jeopardize that cherished health, to
Save so little bit—
When for a mite—and mere mite more—
You get food that’s TOPS’for all—
And makes the entire family rush-to-eat,—
The minute that you call.
I pride myself in keeping foods—that meet with
each demand—
Whether it be fresh fruits and vegetables or
something from a can—
And everything—that you may need—from a
good grocery line—
You can get by stepping to your phone—and
calling Number Nine!

FOREIGN SALES
OF COTTON
SLUMPS
Austin, Tex.—King Cotton’s
foreign empire is dwindling
under the effects of an above-
market-price Federal subsidy,
Dr. A. B. Cox, University of
Texas economist, said here to-
day.
The sale price for United
States grown cotton, already
down from a pre-depression
average of 17 cents to a meagre
8 cents, at the farm, will have
to go lower to stop booming
foreign production, he ad-
vised.
He said the current govern-
ment loan of 8.30 cents seemed
about 1.25 cents above the
world market price for Ameri-
can cotton permitted to move
at its competitive value.
Income lost from cotton
could be “restored and in-
creased many fold if Texas re-
adjusts its agriculture and
develops industrially and com-
mercially iir proportion to its
natural resources and advan-
tages and its markets, present
and potential,” he stated, how-
ever.
Dr. Cox pegged the world’s
cotton supply for the current
year ending July 31 at about
fifty million bales. -Of that
supply, a shade over half is
United States grown cotton.
While the world cotton de-
mand has increased about
439.000 bales annually since
1915, the demand for .United
States grown variety has de-
clined.
Since 1929, this nation’s for-
eign sales have slumped 3,-
500.000 bales below the five-
year pre-depression average,
j while consumption of foreign
! cotton has gained over 6,500,-
j 000 bales annually, he stated.
“The most significant of all
these facts is that the increase
in foreign production have oc-
curred since 1933, during
which time the United States
has considered prices too low
to warrant normal produc-
tion,” he declared.

Athens, Tex.—Garden Trails
have become the thing of late;
the Rotary club recently de-
cided to do something about
the matter to bring 'Henderson
county to the fore.
Cooperating with John Dean,
former Ash Switch citizen, the
club recently voted to ask the
Bonehead club of Dallas to
sponsor a “Bear Grass Trail”
this spring through Henderson
county, with Ash as the foca!
point of the trail.
Bear grass, better known
under the hifalutin’ name of
Yucca, abounds in quantities
just East of Athens and is one
of the prettiest plants grown.
With the Bonehead club of Dal-
las actively behind the Trail
drive, thousands of people are
expected to make the pilgrim-
age here to see this plant in
bloom.
