Most vital question every home-
maker ia now facing ia how to sub-
stitute certain available foods for
shortages. Sugar
shortages and re-
duced supplies of
fats, oils and cer-
tain imports make
it necessary for
every one of you
to revise your
meals in some re-
spects and use substitutes.
Although sugar rationing is to be
in effect, you will still be able to get
some of it. There are also good sub-
stitutes for it such as honey, mo-
lasses and corn syrup all of which
may be used very easily for cooking
and sweetening purposes. Still an-
other excellent source of sugar ia in
the dried fruits which you can use
for dessert to get your daily quota
of sugar.
Select recipes which have less
eggs, sugar and butter, for although
there may not be an actual shortage
of all these items, they may be ex-
pensive.
Fata are extremely valuable in
the current emergency, and you are
advised to save as much of fats and
oils as you can. Be sure that your
butcher puU in all the scraps of fat
and trimmings off the meat you buy.
You can take tbeae pieces home
and clarify them for use in trying,
flavoring or actual cooking.
If you have blithely discarded the
scraps of butter off the butter plates
after dinner, lunch or breakfast,
then remedy your habits immedi-
ately. Even if you do not use the
butter scraps as table butter, these
can be used for flavoring vegeta-
bles, or in larger amounts for cook-
ing and baking purposes. Be sure
the butter is kept in the icebox or
at least in a cool place so it will not
become rancid.
Butter and its substitutes will be
available, but you should plan to use
these foods spar-
ingly. You can
substitute the corn
and vegetable or
even mineral oil
for salad dress-
ings if you are
unable to obtain
olive oil.
Cheeses which have been formerly
imported are available only in lim-
ited quantities, but American made
cheeses are coming to the fore, the
Bleu and Camembert cheeses being
of excellent quality.
Soybeans are becoming a popular,
nutritious food during the current
emergency. Here is an excellent rec-
ipe for:
Soy Bean Feast Bread.
(Makes 1 loaf)
1 cup milk
1 eake compressed yeast
3 tablespoons sugar
1 tablespoon fat, melted
1 teaspoon salt
314 cups wheat flour
M cup soy bean flour

With new equipment at a pre-
mium, you will be a wise home-
maker if yoU give the best care
possible to the pieces you al-
ready have.
Disconnect electric appliances
by grasping the plug itself, not
by pulling on the cord. When
washing electrieal,equipment such
as coffee pots or toasters or waffle
irons, wipe with %' cloth rather
than immersing in water.
Scouring pots and pans with
steel wool pads impregnated with
soap, after each meal during
which you Use pots and pans,
will keep them bright and shiny
longer.
Keep sulphur away from ill-
verwate to prevent tarnish. Eggs,
matches, salt, fruit Juice and even
rubber tarnish silver quickly.
When washing cutlery with wood-
en handles, be careful not to let
the handles stdnd in water or they
will become loosened. -
Grease new pans before putting
them In the otfbn and they will
never rust. For rusty pie tins,
rub a raw potato with cleansing
powder on it -to got rid M the

Scald milk and cool to lukewarm.
Pour over yeast and sugar in mix-
ing bowl and let stand for % hour.
Add melted fat and salt and the
flours, beating them in well. Knead
the dough for about 10 minutes on a
lightly floured board. Cover and let
rise in a warm place for 14 hour,
then knead again for 1 minute. Re-
peat the rising and kneading proc-
ess twice more. Shape into a loaf
and let rise again in a greased pan
until double in bulk or about an
hour. Bake in a hot (400-degree)
oven about 50 minutes.
Honey or molasses along with
fruits rich in carbohydrates contrib-
ute to the sugar content of this fruit
bread:
•Fruit Bran Bread.
I egg
H cup honey or molasses
1 sup buttermilk
2 eups flour
1 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons baking powder
U4 eups bran cereal
M teaspoon soda
Vi cap chopped figs
Vi enp chopped dates
Vi rap chopped nuts
Beat egg well, add honey or mo-
lasses. Add bran and buttermilk.
Sift the dry ingredients and add to
first mixture with fruit and nuts.
Stir only until flour disappears. Bake
in a greased loaf pan with waxed
paper placed at the bottom before
the mixture is poured in. Set the
oven at moderate (330 degrees) and
bake bread for about 1 hour.
Simplicity will be the keynote of
meals so in keeping with that theme,
I am including two desserts using
fruit flavored with honey.
Broiled Grapefruit.
Wash and dry grapefruit and cut
in half crosswise allowing Vi grape-
fruit per person. With a sharp knife
cut around and under the entire pulp
being careful to leave all the mem-
brane on the shell. Cut down each
aide of each section loosening each
section completely. Lift out center
section or core. This leaves only
the separated sections in the shell.
Spread the top of each half with
honey and dot with butter. Place un-
der a broiler flame in moderate
oven until honey begins to carmel-
ize and all ingredients are blended
together. Serve hot.
•Baked Pears.
(Serves I)
> pear halves
Vi cup lemon Juice
Vi cup honey
1 teaspoon cinnamon
2 tablespoons butter
Arrange pears in a shallow bak-
ing dish. Pour over lemon juice and
honey. Sprinkle with cinnamon and
dot with butter. Bake in a moderate
(330-degree) oven until tender, 20
minutes if uncooked pears are used,
*Old Fashioned Boiled Dinner.
(Serves 3)
5 pounds corned beef brisket
1 white turnip
1 head of sabbsgs
> onions
I carrots
S potatoes
Cover meat with cold water and
heat rapidly to the boiling point,
then remove scum and reduck heat.
Simmer until tender 3Vi to 4 hours.
Prepare vegetables, cutting turnip
into eighths. Peel potatoes, carrots
and onions. About 45 minutes be-
fore meat is done add vegetables
and cook them until tender.
Serving Well Cooked Food.
Warm plates for hot main dishee
and well chilled plates for cool sal-
ads and desserts can put over the
simplest meal and make it e suc-
cess. A few bite of canned leftover
fruit with a dab of leftover jelly
will make meat platters an attrac-
tive garnish, or sprigs of parsley,
watercress, or celery tops for meat
and vegetable platters do big things
to tempt weary appetites.

T ONG before we were threat-
L' ened with the necessity of
blackouts window draperies were
hung well over walls to give rooms
a sumjy spacious effect. The same
idea may now be used to keep
light in at night. A cornice taking
the place of a picture moulding is
smart for both modern and tradi-
tional rooms and gives anchorage
near the ceiling for rod, or pole.
This sketch shows how one
homemaker made cheerful, soft
green sateen blackout draperies,
repeating a tone in the chintz of
the new slip covers. They are
edged with cotton cord fringe in
a darker tone.

True Greatness
It is great, and there is no other
greatness—to make one nook of
God’s creation more fruitful, bet-
ter, more worthy of God; to make
some human heart a little wiser,
manlier, happier, more blessed,
less accursed.—Carlyle.
The True Role
The true role, in determining to
embrace or reject anything, is not
whether it have any evil in it, but
whether it have more of evil than
of good.
There are few things wholly evil
or wholly good. Almost every-
thing, especially of government
policy, is an inseparable compound
of the two, so that our best judg-
ment of the preponderance be-
tween them is continually demand-
ed.—A. Lincoln.
