BAKING DAY.

Most housekeepers who have all OF
their own work to do, like to plan
their work in such a way that no time
will be lost waiting for things, and
each piece Of work may fit in and fol-
low without waste of time.
If the bread is set or sponged at
night it will be ready to mold into
a large loaf the first thing In the
morning. Then in an hour or two
it can be made into loaves and baked
before noon. When making steamed
brown bread, get it made and steam
ing Immediately after breakfast, then
1t may be ready for the noon meal,
after it has dried off in the oven for
a half hour
Pieffer Neusse.-Mlx and sift to-
gether one cup of sugar, two cups Of
flour, half a tablespoonful of CHINA
mon, a fourth of a tablespoonful OF
cloves. mace, nutmeg and teaspoon
of baking powder; add the grated rind
of a lemon, a fourth of a cup of
chopped citron and three beaten eggs.
Make in balls the size of a hickory
hNN anu bhhN vi q buNbNltu paper vi
til a golden brown.
Raisin Brown Bread.-Take one cup
full each of rye meal, graduated corn
meal, graham -four; add three-fourths
of teaspoonful of soda, one and
half teaspoonfuls of salt, three-fourths
of a cup of molasses, one and three
fourths cups of milk or water and a
cup of chopped raisins. Steam in ba
king powder cans well buttered for
three hours.
IL materials and utensils are close
at hand in cooking. much time may
thus be saved. Have plenty of the
small ard useful utensils that are
used every minute in cooking within
reach
Clean up as you go along, putting
back the box of baking powder well
covered, as soon as it is used. Place
the spoons and small utensils, egg
heater and such things, in a bowl or
pitcher, pouring over cold water to
soak them. When they are to be
washed they will be done in half the
time
Clean wash dresses and aprons are
best for all kinds of homework, and
especially for cooking.

CHEAPER MEAT.

1t is interesting to note the methods
of serving meats and the variety OF
prices charged for the same cut One
feels that twenty-five cents a pound
for calls liver is almost prohibitive,
yet we notice In other places it may
be bought for ten to fifteen cents a
pound.
One must study the home market,
and by pricing the different cuts learn
what the prices are for flank, chuck,
shoulder piece, neck and round steak.
Brisket and hook are used for stews
and soup. Shank for stewing and
soup, and four ribs which may be used
for roasting. BY usin small
amount of meat, which gives flavor
to the dish, one may cut the cost of
meat Hamburg steak or chicken
mixed with macaroni and baked
makes a good substantial dish with
very little meat
Beef Loaf.-Take two pounds of
hamburg steak, mix with half a cup
of crumbs, season with salt, pepper,
onion juice; add two well beaten eggs.
three tablespoonfuls of sweet cream,
form into a loaf, place in a deep pan.
fill the pan two-thirds full of boiling
water, lay slices of bacon over the
top, then put peeled potatoes into the
pan and bake until the potatoes are
done Serve with the gravy in the
pan slightly thickened.
II liver is reasonable in price, cook
it, after parboiling in bacon fat or
with a slice or two of bacon or salt
pork. After frying, remove the bacon
and liver, add a little flour and milk
and water to make a nice smooth
gravy.
