HOW TO ARRANGE GOOD MENU
Recorded Study Of Food Elements 10
Best Way for Housewife to
Avoid Errors.

Every housekeeper should be per-
fectly familiar with the three food
products. This is the foundation Of
menu-making. Protelds. carbohy-
drates and fats are the three divisions
into which all foods are classed. Pro-
telds are the muscle-builders and are
found in meat, beans. peas, eggs and
nuts. Carbohydrates are the starches
and are found In cereals, sugar and
starchy foods. These foods produce
fat and energy. Fats, such as oils,
butter, lard. etc, give heat to the
body A general knowledge Of these
food properties as they are found In
various foods underlies successful
cooking as well as menu-making.
A good menu is well.balanced me-
nu IN regard to these three food prin-
ciples. A practical study OF these
foods Is the best way to avoid errors
IN diet.
Do not serve several foods Of the
same composition at the same meal.
such as potatoes, rice and macaroni.
Do not serve bean or pea soup With
