manj herald readers helena oa thurs da 16th dear mr moore we reached here this morning after a pleasant trip most of the nay left georgetown saturday morning and spent the night nt east aurora 20 iniks out of buffalo sunday we hod bnghusunslimealldonthrough the susqtrbhatiiia trail monday it foggy part of tho way down the shenandoah valley and just ordinary through the pidemount trull but the rain caught us wednesday when we got rjlthe dirt roads of south caro lina and georgia they said we brought it down from canada as it had been a fine dry fall till then on monday we left ice and snow just out of harnsburg about four hundred miles from home byxu day we were leaving off coats and wraps but wednesday and thursday the cold wave followed us down and the progress southward kept us in about the same temperature the moat noticeable thing in the hue is the way the day lengthens out the evening twilight is more than i hour later than at home when we stopped for the night virginia we thought we were tn the south when tho waiter said what will you all hae to drink but we i absolutely sure the next morn ing when she said how will yo have yo aigs they never dream of asking if you will have eggs it is jnst how will you have them needless to say the poultry industry thrives another sign of being in the south i mean the old south where the cotton andthepiokanmnea jjtow is the way of preparing and mg a meal at a hotel table you are given a plate and at least eight little side dishes so that when throe or four people are served the table is absolutely covered there will be gnu invariably and hot buscuiu no meal can be served with out the latter and very few without the former hominy grits are pre pared i from com and when served the dish looks like cream of wheat imt it would be unpardonable to eat it as aoereol it is eaten with salt and butter like a vegetable then there will be sweet potatoes fried and sweetened irish potatoes french fried and other vegetables a fritter or twaand at least two kinds of meat the soqthsnar is very enthutnastto over southern cooking and to live for weeks on light bread as we do without either corn bread or biscuits is bejond his comprehension the fare here suits me alright but to any one wishing to reduce i would sug gesl going on to floida where flor- thern cooking prevails ge orgia and the other cotton states are having hard sledding this year on account of the break in cot ton prices but they are optimistic and think they will pull through yet cotton is still being picked peach es and apples were much the same whole orchards loaded with fruit were not picked at all i suppose the answer is diversified farming we are all certainly sorry to be away from home at christmas time and hope that our georgetown friends will remember us at this tune and that a fullness of the joys of the sea- eon- may be theirs this and a prosperous mew vfar is the with of the pettits yours very truly morlev pettit frtiay nw al
