Our cold weather still hangs on, we see Frost almost every a.m. some real heavy. gardens with some things up were damaged some and fruit trees in bloom, the days are real warm and the nights should be warmer. The old Sommer's Hall has been torn down, the ground will be used by the Metamora Garrage to park cars on instead of on the streets. What kind of weather will you have after May 1st. If you have peas or string beans I wish them in milk not as I see them in water and if new potatoes the same and flap jacks, syrup of brown sugar with maple seasoningin it or maple maid a powder put up in 5 cent sacks, and biscuit with honey, if not easy bought I have both baked potatoes, corn bread, whole wheat bread, toast
