ECONOMY in FRYING MEDIUMS
All Fats That Are Produced When
Cooking Should Be Preserved for
Use In the Future.

A needless expense In many house
holds is the waste of valuable fats
and oils. In the kitchens without
number the most excellent shorten
ing" and frying mediums are thrown
out In the garbage can.
The provident New Englander or
French woman is Mortified at this ex-
travagance, as they save every bit OF
fat and try 1t out for use In cooking.
The top Of the pot"-that Is, that fat
that rises on the water In which corned
beef Is boiled or soup stock-is excel
lent to use for shortening In ginger
bread or cookies. Tried out chicken
is equal to the best olive oil and can
even be used In making mayonnaise
or French pastry. Mutton and lamb
fats are too tallowy and hard to be
used in cooking. but they make q first
class camphor ice or lotion for chapped
hands. cracked heels and chilblains.
There Is no better frying medium than
half lard and half drippings or equal
parts of suet tried out and drippings;
yet extravagant cooks and ignorant
housewives often insist on using but
ter. which. aside from its prohibitive
price. IL apt to burn. Bacon. ham
and pork fat are all good for frying
potatoes. liver. corn meal mush and
eggs. With a close oversight to see
that these shortcomings and frying
mediums are not wasted, the butter
bill, even in midwinter. may be kept
comparatively small.-Emma P. Tel
