MAKE LARD AT HOME
ALWAYS SUPERIOR IN QUALITY
TO BOUGHT ARTICLE.
Method Of Rendering Presents Few
Dlfficultles-Fire Must Not BE Too
Hot and Pot Needs to Be
Carefully Watched.

Since homemade lard Is so superior
to anything in the same line that can
be bought II seems strange so many
women buy their shortening ready for
use. Frying out the fat is very little
trouble and homemade lard Is not
more expensive than that bought IN
the can. Leaf lard, the fat that comes
on the thin under portion Of hog meat.
costs from 90 cents to 40 cents for two
pounds, according to the location OF
the butchers shop. rather than the
quality Of the lard.
The method of rendering lard Is
simple. For instance, the fire should
not be fiercely hot when the pot Is
set on the stove and care must be
taken not to spill any fat while on the
fire, because it might burn. There VIII
be less danger Of this II cooked over
slow fire, and as the fat should be
melted with gentle heat a moderate
fire is best all around.
Cut the fat into small pieces and put
without water into the pot. Set over
the fire, and when steam ceases to rise
from the vessel the lard is sufficiently
cooked. Then a little salt should be
thrown in, also pinch Of baking soda.
The first causes the sediment to settle
quickly and helps to keep the lard.
while the soda tends to whiten It {
Strain through cheesecloth into
small jars rather than large ones. Old
lard cans may be used, but 1t is
good idea in any case, that is. II much
lard is made at time, to cover the
tops Of the jars with layer Of cotton
batting before putting on the lids.
Always keep lard in q cool. dry
place. In England the scraps left
from the lard are considered quite a
delicacy among the poorer people. In
this country they are usually thrown
away, but l have used them very sue
cessfully in the place Of suet, chopping
them fine and working them into the
flour with the tips of the fingers. And
speaking Of suet reminds me very
cheap and excellent shortening can be
made for family use from the suet
taken from the beef flank. 1t Is called
cod fat and makes much softer and
better shortening than the ordinary
suet. This can be melted down like
lard after cutting into small pieces.
When ready to come from the stove
the melted fat is poured into clean,
cold water to harden. 1t can then be
taken of, wiped dry and be packed
away for future use.
Some people object to animal fat,
preferring cottolene. This can be
made at home; then there will be no
question as to its purity. Six parts of
cotton oil to four parts of oleostearine
are melted together and strained into
Jars.

The advent OF the steel ship with us
in the early sos started us anew In
the upbuilding Of our fighting feet,
which had sadly dwindled during the
period following the Civil war. The
story Of the new navy is something
with which we are all pretty familiar,
and yet it has grown in fact from the
start Fulton gave US In 1914 by the
LAYING of the keels of the craft he
dubbed the Demologos. Just fancy
the contrast between that strange yes
sci OF 2,475 tons and a speed Of four
miles and a modern dreadnaught like
the Texas of $4,000 tons and speed
of 81 knots an hour! A hundred years

withal, capable Of holding her own
in the face OF the toughest seas and
the worst of gales. The steam that
Fulton showed US how to use has been
turned into hundreds Of auxiliary serv-
ices on shipboard today, and through
that energy electricity is generated
and the brilliancy Of sunshine rivaled,
while by virtue Of the same potent
force its very heat Is the agency by
which ice Is furnished Jacky in the

frigeration makes 1t possible for him

Disease Being Cause.

San Francisco. Cal, March Nv.
W. Naughton, president of the San
Francisco Press club, dean of Pacific
coast sport writers, and known the
breadth of the country, died at his
home from heart disease after an ill
ness of a fortnight.
Mr.. Naughton was seized with acute
indigestion, attended by pressure of
gas on the heart, after a late supper
two weeks ago, and his condition was
Immediately recognized as critical. He
rallied, however, and when his physi-
clans permitted him to be removed
from st. Mary's hospital to his home
il was believed he would recover.
Naughton was born in Auckland,
New Zealand, July 81, 1854. and began
his career as an American newspaper
writer in 1856 IN San Francisco. He
learned the newspaper business from
the printers case up. beginning on the
New Zealand Herald in 1870. In his
youth he was a noted boxer, oarsman,
runner, swimmer and marksman, and
II was not uncommon for him to win
an athletic or shooting match in the
morning, write It up at noon, and put
his own story into type during the af-
ternoon.
For many years Naughton special
lied on boxing. and he was at the
rlngside at all notable contests.
