Too MANY Apt 10 Bring Cake.

One of the faults have noticed at a good
many picnics / have attended is a prepon-
derance of sweets. Especially at a basket
picnic there is a tendency to bring cake
sooner than anything else When you give
the picnic yourself and select all the food
you can balance it more wisely, but if a
number of people join. and each brings
something it should be positively decided
beforehand what every one is to contribute.
There is as much field for choice in the line
of substantials as there is in the direction
of sweet stuff. and the former cost no more
in money or labor than the latter. The
real need is for forethought and ingenuity.
Consider for q moment the things you
can take to the picnic Sandwiches, Of
course, and these are the most convenient
form in which to carry bread and any
savory accompaniment. When one thinks
of the infinite variety of sandwiches. it
seems as though there were no need for
anything beyond these Yet one may make
other dainties no less acceptable.

This recipe comes too late to be of use so
far as Strawberries are concerned, but it
can be employed with other fruits. 1 have
no doubt it is delicious, but it is rather ex-
pensive. My own preference would be to
mash the berries and put them in without
straining. Raspberries may be employed
in the same way. and peaches are also very
fine thus frozen. 1t will not detract from
the merits of the cream to add to it the
whites of a couple of eggs, beaten light, but
will rather make the cream less rich. as
well as increase its bulk. For myself I
enjoy an ice cream made with founda-
ton of custard of milk and eggs to which
uncooked cream is added just before it goes
into the freezer.
