A DAY IN A VIRGINIA PLANTER'S LIFE (1713) IV The road was merely a lane, or so it would be called today. It was not wide enough for two car riages to pass while going in op- Sosite directions, but this was no ardship, for carriages were so few in Virginia that two of them were not likely to meet on. this quiet road, It was a beautiful highway, running under a green arch of trees, and it would take the four riders to Phillips' ordi nary on the Pamunkey river. From there another road along the river led to Bejmore, which was the name of Swain's planta tion. As they approached tidewater the woods gave way to great fields of growing tobacco. Here and there they saw the huge barns, to which the tobacco leaf was taken to dry, and near by were the plantation buildings a mansion of brick or of heavy tim ber for the master! and behind it a little village of the cabins in which the servants and slaves lived. The huts of the slaves were always separated by a small field or vegetable garden from those occupied by the white indentured servants. i - . At that period of Virginia his tory, and for many years there after, tobacco was the life blood, heart and bones of the colony. It was an economic error of the most vicious kind for the colonists to turn all their attention to tobacco planting, but their motive may be readily understood. Tobacco was the only agricultural crop that could be sold Immediately in Eur ope for cash on the spot. It was therefore looked upon as ready money. As a result the Virginians neglected every kind of manufac ture. With leaf tobacco occupying such a powerful position in the economic Jlfe of Virginia it is not surprising that it became a form of currency. People carried silver coins in their purses and had some more locked up in their houses, but -metallic money was used only in small transactions. Substantial payments of every kind were made in tobacco.. A clergyman was paid a yearly salary of sixteen thousand pounds of tobacco; a schoolmaster re ceived about half as much. The wages of carpenters, bricklayers and mechanics were stated in terms of tobacco. But tobacco varied greatly in value from time to time. These fluctuations gave a WARMIRJfi FOODO IFOR Specials Friday and Saturday Jonathan Apples .box 2.59 i Points Lb. 2 lbs. 49c Cranberries .,....... lb. 39c Walnuts ...lb. 45c Mixed Nuts lb. 39c Peanuts ...lb. 29c Birdseye Frozen Peas .... .pkg. 25c Frozen Cut Beans...... pkg. 20c Succotash pkg. 24c Frozen Peaches pkg. 32c Oven Baked Beans pkg. 20c Chicken a la King..... pkg. 69c Alt Point Vtm ' Sunsweet Prune Juice at. 33c 2 lb. box 31c fj 1 lb. far 33c Apple Juice . .

The economic pattern of Vir ginia life was disastrous to the small farmer, and in the end it produced a permanent class of poverty-stricken whites. . Swain and Randall, wjth their servants, reached the Phillips' inn shortly after noon, which was fortunate since Phillips always had the midday meal served promptly at half-past twelve. At the dining table there were three men and two women besides Swain and Randall. One of the men was a professor or teacher, as he was called at William and Mary college in Williamsburg, and the women were his wife and daughter. He was on his way to his brother's plantation on the Potomac. Both Swain and Ran dall knew him and his ladies, and there was much friendly conver sation. The party lingered long over the meal. It was not served in courses, but all the dishes were put down on the table at once. There was n vegetable soup, fried oysters with a hot sauce, fish chowder, roast goose stuffed with boiled peanuts, sweet potatoes, carrots, preserved fruit, apple pie and the patrons had their choice of a variety of drinks, such as ale, beer, cider, rum punch, flip, sher ry and peach brandy. The ladies wanted coffee after the meal, and it was finally brought in cups as large as bowls. While waiting for it the professor's wife remarked that at home they had coffee every day. ''Also tea, mother," said the young lady. "Yes, coffee and tea," the mother agreed, and anyone could see that the profes sor's wife considered the habitual use of tea and coffee a step up ward In social prestige. The professor paid no attention to the discussion of coffee; he was eager to set forth his views on nn important matter. He thought, and said, that there should be a gazette in every col ony a gazette which would print and publish the news of the colony, of all the colonics, of the world. "Heartily do I agree with you sir," said a stranger who had not, until then, said a word to anyone. "Every colony ought to have at least one gazette two would be better for knowledge, and that means news and Information, is one of the foundation stones of civilized life. As far as I know there Is not a news sheet In any of the colonies." "Yes, there is," Swain said. "There's one in Boston called the News-Letter. I've seen It." "Do you call that flimsy little thing a public gazette?" the pro fessor demanded. "It is just one sheet, about the size of writing paper, and " "The Boston postmaster gels it out," said the stranRer. "All lie puts in it Is what lie hears In taverns and nearly everything In it Is u lie." After much more talk about this and that, the smoking of pipes and the drinking of toasts, the professor remarked that he and his ladies must be on their way. Swain seemed startled, not at the departure of the professor and his family, but at the flight of time. "Why, It's half-past three," Swain said hurriedly. "We should have been on our way long ago.

So plan to watch Safeway ads in '45 they offer ideas and recipes for variety in meals that molie them tempting and exciting. A Lot To Do About Ground Meat There', a difference in the pan-frying and broil 'ing times for the various kinds of ground meat. Beef and veal requiro the same cooking time but Iamb and pork take a bit longer. When two or fnon kinds of ground meat are mixed together, the time is gauged by the kind of meat in tho 'largest proportion. However, when there's fresh pork in the combination it's advisable to follow the timing given, for pork must be cooked thor oughly. GROUND BEEF AND VEAL Because of their leanness, ground beef and veal are benefited by the addition of at or liquid, such as suet, eggs, or evaporated milk. Eggs and evap orated milk also act as binders to help hojd the ground beef and veal together after they're slum the best results ore obtained by using 2 rggs or A tablespoons of evaporated milk or 4 tablespoons of suet for each pound of ground beef or veal. M pound beef or voal pattic, broiled or pan-fried, should bo cooked bot 10 minutes 5 minutes on each sido. GROUND IAM ' It isn't necessary to add any binding ingredients to ground lamb for it holds its shape when cooked. However, the addition of a little chopped bacon contributes a delectable flavor and adds tne fat that is needed. For patties and mock cutlets and chops of aver age thickness that are to be pan-fried or broiled, it is best to allow about 30 minutes 15 minutes for each side. GROUND FRESH PORK Ground pork is often confused with fresh pork sausnge. Tho difference lies in the fact that saus age contains spices and seasonings while ground fresh pork does not, , A binding ingredient or extra fat is not required for ground pork because it is tender and juicy enough without any additions. It takes at least 20 minutes for pan-frying or broiling of fresh pork patties of average thickness and it is important that they be well done throughout.
