You are going to learn to save money.
worry and health by using meat subst-
tutes. Mrs. Housewife.
You should know, in the first place.
that the average person eats too much
meat. No, am not vegetarian. by any
means. but I know that over-indulgence
in meat Is the cause of more i'll health
than you ever imagine.
And know that after you have tried
some Of the meat substitutes I am going
to tell you about in this article you will
agree with me that even II meat never
had caused any one days distress. these
dishes would be worth having for their
own goodness and the pleasant change
they afford.
Furthermore. these dishes contain food
elements which the system needs. But
because we Americans have formed the
habit of meat, potatoes and bread, we
go on losing these necessary elements OF
strength and endurance.
So it is the part of wisdom. as well as
economy. to make frequent use of these
meat substitutes
In the following recipes for meat sub
stitutes there are besides fish and
oSStttor CHttsc, iitS. mdSdioh bcdHSs
lentils, eggs. hominy bananas and bacon.
The bacon is used for favoring and
garnishing. I find it makes one of the
best and cheapest havorings. Always
save the bacon drippirgs when having 1t
for breakfast Then you will have your
fiavortng for vegetables and other cook
cry.
Each of the following recipes has been
tested, and If blended with other things,
as suggested in many cases will provide
an excellent meal
The prices are based on the large city
average. Even these will vary in different
parts Of any city. Some places they will
be higher and others lower But the diff
ference will not be great enough to
change the main contention-that by fol-
lowing these recipes you can effect a big
saving in your food account.

In cooking. as the following recipes show,

Always be sure, when planning a din

peanuts: all persons should be careful to
masticate the nuts thoroughly, or they
are apt to cause trouble. While very many

dish. Use nuts for dessert when you
