I'll \ reply to a request 7 have seen in

used and found good:
"Cut in pieces six pounds of rhu-
barb, put it into dish with three pounds of
white sugar, teaspoonful Of salt the juice
of a large lemon, and the thin cut rind of
an orange. Let these stand together all
night. The next morning put into stew

ingredients, the rhubarb and orange peel

This Is a wholesome sweet as well as a
good one. May suggest that the addition
of a few seedless raisins at the time the
fruit goes into the strip gives a pleasant
favor to the conserve? II is good without
them, but, to my mind. better with them.

We are glad to welcome you to our band
of helpers, and I am especially pleased to
have the recipe for whole wheat bread
which is steadily gaining favor with sensi-
BILE eaters. Mothers have come to under
stand how much more wholesome and nu-
tritious it Is. how much richer in all the ele
ments of muscle and bone making than
bread made from overlooked white flour.
To my own ia ste 1t is better in flavor than
white bread, and when enriched by the
addition of fruit or nuts it pleases children
almost as we'll cake and Is far more di-
gestible.
Another correspondent sends us direc-
lions for making 1t without yeast:
II see that A. G. T. asks for recipe

This recipe varies a little from the other

Cooked potatoes are often warmed over in
this way.
To fry potatoes, croquettes, etc, cook in
deep boiling fat, immersing the object to
be fried while the fat is at a fast bubble.
French fried potatoes are sliced thin or

for half an hour; then dried thoroughly

they are delicately Drowned they are fished
out with split spoon and laid in hot
colander to drain of every drop of fat.
Serve at once.
German fried potatoes are as a rule
cooked and cold before they are fried.
Some prefer them to the French. To my
fancy they never get quite rid of the stale
taste that clings to the cold potato. The
same may be said of stewed cold, cooked
potatoes. The least Objectionable way of
serving them as leftovers is to saute them

A distinguished honor has come
to DEBORAH and to Mrs Eva NJ
Fleming, superintendent of the city
schools, in her election by the re-
cent state teachers association as
chairman of the executive commit
tee. Although she was not present
at the convention, duties at home
requiring her presence here, the

week gave her the highest compli.
ment they could, in electing her t.
this important position. Mrs.
Fleming is one of two women city
superintendent in Iowa, and the
signal success. she has had in the
schools here has made both her
self and the city of DEBORAH famil-
lar words among the great teaching
