THE SCIENCE OF COOKING.
Extract From Paper Read by Mrs.
Hammond at Wednesday After
noon Club Meeting.

Much is said about woman's
sphere in life, and, after all is said
and done, she goes back to her old
Job-marriage and motherhood. We
begin to train our boys at an early
age for his job-that of the father,
the bread-winner. Do we train our
girls for theirs? Health, mentally.
morally and physically, depends up
on knowledge of foods, the amount
used and proper cooking. Why not
spend some of our time and money
in teaching our girls how to select
and cook foods and how to blend
them into a balanced meal to suit
the needs of the body? Let us learn
if we do not already know all about
foods, how to select what the body
requires, how to cook and serve
the same, and then the hue and cry
that has gone up anent the high
cost of living need no longer worry
US, for if our article of food scars
beyond our pocketbook we can sub
stitute something equal in value as
food and go on our way rejoicing.
The Scientific Way to Cook Cabbage.
When boiled 80 minutes in sailed
water IN an uncovered vessel it is
white, tender and beautiful in ap-
pearance. When ready to serve pour
over it a cream sauce made by blend
ing over the fire a tablespoonful of
flour and one of butter, and then
pour in cup of milk and stir until
thick and smooth, and season to
taste with salt and pepper. 1t is
good, inexpensive and it will have to
be weak stomach indeed that will
fail to digest it.

Wimbledon is always ready and
anxious to welcome any new settlers
and considering the many advantages
offered by this locality, there is no
better place in the state to make a
home than here. The soil is as good
as any in the state, the farmers have
proven that all kinds OF grasses, grains
and vegetables ear be successfully and
~profitably raised, cattle, horses, sheep
and hogs thrive and grow fat on the
nutritious grasses and as corn has
proved an excellent crop there is no
ease why the farmers cannot COM
pete with any in the raising of live
stock. Wheat, fax, rye, oats, barley
and potatoes are, however, the chief
products and small fruits are being
successfully raised. with her
beautiful homes, splendid school sys-
tenn, numerous churches, fine location
and progressive and up-to-date citi-
zens, Wimbledon offers the settler many
advantages that cannot be obtained in
many Of the old nj larger cities.
