PRACTICAL DESSERTS.

During the season Of fruit, and for
that matter. that IL all the year round.
fruit provides dessert that IL easy,
usually Inexpensive and decidedly
wholesome. All fruit will not do in
dessert making. 30 We like variety
OF reasonably inexpensive dishes for
everyday use.
There 10 large variety OF fritters
and hot cakes that may be served with
various sauces and are quickly and
easily prepared. Tho fat kettle Is
carefully covered and set away and
can be brought out to heat while the
fritters are being prepared.
Apple Frttters-Sift together one
and third cups Of -four. two teaspoon
fuls Of baking powder and half tea

sugar and q third Of q cup Of water
1ive minutes; add four tablespoonfuls
of currant Jelly and when boiling hot
the Juice Of lemon: strain and serve.
II very nice sauce II desired. with
handful Of candied cherries.
Baked Bananas (Porto Rleo)-Put
rather green bananas In the oven and
baks until the skins burst; serve with
butter.
soufdes are another form Of dessert
which may be varied in endless ways.
When baking. . shallow pan should
be used. as the weight Of tho mixture
tends to break the cell walls. When
the dish seems to be too shallow. line
It with a band of buttered paper that
stands up above the dish. Always set
the pan into water to eQuaiise the heat
in baking.
ceffse soufns.-Cook together three
tablespoonfuls each Of butter and
flour. then add cup Of black coffee.

TO COOK VEGETABLES
HELPFUL SUGGESTIONS FROM DO
MEsTIc SCIENCE EXPERT.
Green Peas, Beans, Cabbage. cauli-
flower and Such Like should Be
Cooked In Uncovered Dishes to
Remove Acid Taste.

Vegetable foods include the cereals,
legumes and tubers, roots and bulbs.
green vegetation and vegetable fruits
and flowers. OF the whole list the ce-
reals are the most valuable. including
as they do the grains from which the
bread of nearly all the world is made,
but rice and corn are the cereals not
commonly referred to in lists of vege-
tables.
Legumes all belong to the pulse fam
lily and the edible portion Is In
the shape of pod. usually ana
though there are many thousand
species only a few kinds are USED
on the table. beans. peas and lentils
being the ones most In use. All
legumes are rich in nitrogenous mat
ter. and II properly cooked and con-
sumed in reasonable quantities may
to some extent replace portion OF
meat in the daily dietary. There is
scarcely any fat in the leguminous
foods, so oil or some fat Ia wisely
added.
When green beans. peas and ten
der legumes have been removed from
their pods they should be cooked
gently in simmering water. but when
the pods and all are used they should
be boiled rapidly.
When the green peas and beans. ETC..

cooked, tiny pinch of soda will
make them tender II added to the
water they are boiled in and 1t
helps to retain their bright green
color.
All green vegetables should be
cooked in uncovered pans. Vegetables
are blanched when cooking to re.
move the strong acrid taste: this
process Is sometimes called par
boiling" With very old, strong
favored tuberous vegetables the
water 10 often changed several times
in the cooking process.

rather than large ones. as they will
be more delicately favored. The
cabbage should be cut in quarters
and soaked for an hour in salt wa
ter. Have q deep stew pan full Of
boiling water and add q tablespoon
Of salt. Put in the cabbage and cook
briskly without covering for 30 to
40 minutes. according to the age
Of the cabbage. When cooking open
tho kitchen windows at the top
and there will be no noticeable
odor Drain and chop the cabbage
and to every pint of the cooked veg
etable allow teaspoon of butter and
add more salt II 1t requires 1t and pep
per to suit taste. Cooked thus, cab
bage will be tender and full of flavor
and will no longer be considered a
coarse vegetable.
When pork is to be cooked with
cabbage put the meat to cook first
and when 1t is commencing to grow
tender add the cabbage.
All the above applies to cauliflower.
except - latter is never quartered
when put to cook and its flavor is so
delicate that the water need not be

of cooking this lovely vegetable
should never exceed 80 minutes.
