Baking Helps

Select materials with great care. The
best of everything is always the cheapest.
To have perfect finished product we
must first have good material for our
foundation. In selecting materials for
baking, first get a high grade baking
powder, for unless properly leavened,
food is not palatable. A high grade bak-
ing powder is not necessarily high priced
one. X G Baking Powder is medium in
price, but of the highest quality, made Of
the best and purest of materials properly
combined to produce the best possible
results.
For cakes and pastries a soft wheat
pastry flour is preferable. To determine
a soft wheat from a bread, or hard wheat
-four, press it tightly in the hand; if the
-four stays packed in mass showing the
imprints of the fingers, it is pastry -four;
if it falls through the fingers sandy, it is
a bread -four, and should be used only
with yeast.
Shortening must be fresh and sweet.
Sugar should always be cane sugar.
Water is equally good as milk in all
articles where a large amount OF sugar
Is used, except for cookies.
Larger masses of dough require longer
time for rising and baking.
Bear in mind that baking rules are as
important as measuring rules. Do not
bake cakes, pudding and such pastries
as short cake, dumplings and meat rolls
with hot fire at the start. Have a slow
oven until the dough doubles IN bulk;
then increase heat to bake and brown.
Biscuits, cut cookies and pie pastry
require hot oven.
Have food thoroughly cooked. Half
cooked pastries are hard to digest and
injurious, better to over-bake than under
bake.

With Broken Back.

Chicago Tribuneh: A 17-year old lad
IN a barren Polish village had a great
dream one day. 1t was America. He
bade good-by to his mother and sisters
and followed his dream. He landed in
a railway yard in st. Paul and was
happy over the discovery of a 50 a day
job. The future doomed bright to him.
At the end of eleven months an acct
dent happened in the yard. A pile of
lumber toppled over. n piece of
Lumber caught the Polish lad across
the back and shattered both his bach
and his dream. A hopeless invalid, the
boy now returns to the barren village
ne deserted to follow his dream to
the new world. 3
The boy with the broken back sym
bolizes the tragedy:of the newerimmi-
grants IN this country, most of whom
come from Slavic countries. They all
follow a dream, the dream of wealth
and comfort in the new world. But
the. dream does not come true to all of
them. Far too frequently their dreams
and their backs are shattered by indus
trial accidents.
