MACEDOINE SALAD

Calculating the amount contained in
purchases and knowing just how far
each should go forms very desirable
check on too frequent buying. Some
times goods purchased in large cans or
jars cost less in proportion and would
go farther were it not that they cannot
be used up readily end are liable to spoil
Sometimes the articles can be put into
several smaller cans and used to adj
vantage. The close buyer knows how
to keep her olives from spelling after
the can is opened, and she also keeps her
marmalade jars covered closely and the
preserve scraped from the sides so that it
is all alike in texture, until nothing is left.

Buying in Large Quantities


The economical woman sometimes
spends money in rather large amounts,
because it pays in the end. She will on
occasion buy large piece of meat and
arrange with the butcher to keep 4 for
her and cut it up as needed.
The economical woman knows that
homemade bread is cheaper than bakers
even in first cost She knows that the
final cost of the bakers loaf is increased
because of the added food she must fur
nish her family if they are to be well
fed. The nourishnent and satisfaction
are not easy to calculate, but they are
important factors to be considered in
buying.
Eggs furnish the same kind of nour-
ishment as meat, and even when quite
high in price are cheaper than meat.
The woman who buys economically
spends for eggs and saves in non-essen-

DREADED LAMB CHOPS

lacks flavor; in December it is compare
lively cheap and at its best for eating.
Eggs and butter also have a season
during which the price is lower than in
the winter months. Packing them away
in dry salt or brine is often practised by
the woman who co..nts the cost and tries
to furnish nutritious food to her family
Often it pays city jewellers to buy such
things as eggs and butter in large
quantities, from some distant farmer
The rates for freight or expressage do
not bring the cost up to market price,
and where several join in the investment
the result is very satisfactory.
Vernon County censor. [volume] (Viroqua, Wis.) 1865-1955, 1909-06-09

The economical woman would also
prepare black beans in soup that world
do duty as mock turtle and cost much
less. The fireless cooker would reduce
the cost 70 little more than the cost of
the dried beans. Lentils would also fur
nish delicious water soup instead of
using a more expensive soup made with
stock.
Again, the economical woman will ask
for the bones for which she pays when
she buys chops or steak, and use them
for her soup-pot. If she uses little meat
she win invest in a jar of beef extract
at a cost which seems high; her wise use
of this extract for making 'quicl. con-
somme" will demonstrate that. she OBJ
tains her moneys worth. She has really
saved in fuel and time and material and
has practically the same kind of soup
she would have had for consomme.
Use of Canned Goods
1t is more economical to purchase
can of boned chicken for twenty-five
cents than to purchase a chicken and
prepare it for such things as salad or
croquettes. 4 chicken for twenty-five
cents in many communities would fur
nish very little. Where chickens are
cheap, of course, the canned goods would
figure higher.
Evaporated or dried fruits are very
desirable when carefully prepared, and
result in compotes equal to the expen-
sive ones. They form an agreeable sub
stitute for fresh fruits and cost much
less. The woman who saves knows how
to develop flavors by combining fruits.
For instance, she will use evaporated
apples for foundation, and just enough
of the more expensive dried apIicots to
give a delicious favor. She will know
the value of combining apples and black
berries, making the final cost of her COM
pote quite reasonable.
One phase of substitution which is
false economy is in the use of cheap
cooking material The so-called Cook
Whether cheap or dear, the quality of
an article should be above reproach; its
form may be open to criticism, but that
the case with butter and eggs usually
sold for cooking. The composition has
changed until the articles are past the
stage of wholesonleness If that has not
occurred, it is often true of butter that
adding to the weight and price or else
composed of cheap fats.
Such things as broken rice or broken
nuts are entirely different Their quail
ity is uninjured and the appearance IN
soups or croquettes or buildings would
be satisfactory. Even served plain the
rice would look well if carefully pre-
pared
