Excerpt from Tested Recipe Cook Book
No recipe is of value until it has been tested. Conversely, every recipe wisely endorsed is of much value. In offering to the public, therefore, these various concoctions, endorsed by names well-known throughout Georgia and the South. Mrs. Henry L.Wilson, the compiler of this little volume, and herself a recognized authority on household matters, has wrought a good work.
Moreover, this enterprise, undertaken by the Chairman of the Committee on Agriculture and Horticulture, in behalf of that department, is happily appropriate. For it is the field and the garden which feed the larder and the table; and Ceres and Pomona, for all their classic names and lineage, are but the constant ministers to that homely Saxon syllable which we know as cook.
Believing, therefore, that this book will go forth to win a wide success, is only believing that the eternal fitness of things will be accomplished. For it is but meet that these golden recipes, coined by skilled housewives from the distant mint of farm and field, should be the emissaries to go out and gather in a return treasury of gold for their original benefactors - Agriculture and Horticulture.
