SOUPS AND cHOWDER
SHOULD FIGURE FREQUENTLY
ON HOUSEHOLD MENU.
May or May Not Be Substantial, a.
One Desires. but Are Practically Es-
sentizI-corn chc~ter spIen-
did Luncheon Dish.

Soups made with herbs and vege-
tables to be used on fast days are
very numerous. Some of them are
created for novelty. some for Wy
simple light form Of diet, merely hot
beverage suitable for very cold
weather, or cod i1 summer time, like
the Russian or German beer soups.
Then there are other soups or purees
made entirely Of vegetables and herbs
which are substantial enough to re-
place meat dishes as they give a con-
siderable amount OF nitrogenous food
vixen they are properly compounded.
But the names Of these soups do not
designate them as belonging to any
special time or season Here are three
of the best:
Corn Chowder - Chowders make
most satisfying and nourishing lunch
con dishes, and several are made with
out meat extractives of any kind. For
corn chowder take a quart OF grated
fine corn; ordinary canned sweet corn
may be used, but first put through a
food chopper; also a white onion
chopped fine, two good-sized white POI
tatoes, diced; a tablespoonful of
minced parsley, salt and pepper. Put
tho potatoes in first: then a sprin-
king of onion, little parsley, salt,
pepper. and then layer of corn. Then
more potato, and so on, until all are
In, having the top layer of corn. Add
pint of cold water and sim ner gently
until the potato is just tender, but not
broken About twenty minutes will be
sufficient, perhaps less. Rub together
two tablespoonfuls of butter and two
OF flour; add beaten egg yolk and thin
with little not milk; then add a
pint of scalded hot milk; stir all to-
gether and stir into the chowder.
Stir and cook a few minutes longer
and serve at once. II you do not wish
TO use the egg. the chowder is excel
lent without it.
Convent Soup-Take two pounds CO
fresh founder, or any white fish: cut
in pieces; one carrot, one onion, one
turnip. two stalks Of celery, chopped.
Add bunch of herbs and a quart of
cold water. and cook gently for about
two hours. Take out the fish. remove
the bones and skin and put the meat
back into the soup with a pint Of
scalding hot milk, thickened with a
level tablespoonful each of butter and
flour and mixed with the beaten yolk
of an egg and little lemon juice. Sea-
son to taste with salt, pepper and graf
ing of nutmeg. Press through a sieve
and serve.
Good Vegetable Soup-Cut into fancy
shapes or chop fine one small carrot,
one turnip, one tomato (the solid meat
of canned tomatoes can be used): add
half pint of peas, half a pint OF
beans, soaked and parboiled IL dry;
two tablespoonfuls of rice, one quart
Of cold soft water, and cook slowly.
A cupful of corn and two white pota-
toes, diced, may be added when the
soup is nearly done. Season with salt
and pepper to taste. Another quart
of boiling water will be required. The
rice may be boiled separately In this
w,&er and both added to the soup.

MANY PLEASURES

One way to raise early cabbage is
to begin when the plants are quite
small and work into the soil around

repeating every fortnight until the
heads are formed.
In order to make garden pay, ev-
cry foot of the soil should be con-

season producing something.
BY sowing the seed at different
times. it is possible to enjoy green
peas and beans from along in the
summer until fall.
To obtain the best results from
transplanting vegetables, slo 1t on

was tightly drawn around the object
OF interest. Tom unceremoniously
forced his bulk through the press, be-

thin, removing skins. seeds and every
vestige of white outside skin. Spread
one-fourth of pint of sugar over the

Now, this is two plowings. and il

When they are worked the last time I

No. this is not working the land too
much; we must feed it good and it
will be able to do hard work. This
way l have three things growing ON
the same land for short time. The
onions come off before the sunflowers
get much in the way, and as the ber-
ries are small they are not injured

natural way. A crop Of onions for

Now, at the time of harvest work
in my house built for sweet potatoes
to cure out my onions, when it would
otherwise be standing idle. Trays are
arranged and the onions placed in the
bins at the earliest date after being
pulled and cured a day or two.
Then as soon as they are well cured
they are topped and sacked and all OF
the large ones sold, II the price is
reasonable. prefer to always sell
them at reasonable price rather than
to hold. l cannot eat them all, neither
can feed them, so they are for sale
as a cash crop, and l have of late
years always found ready sale at 81
per bnshel for the large ones. The
sets are sometimes kept until late in
the fall. when they are all sold out OF
my potato house in time to put my
sweet potatoes in, what is not wanted
for planting.
l have given a brief outline of how
l do, and If you wish to raise them
you will find many things coming up
which l have not spoken about And
as to profits, wish to be excused
from discussing that end of it. IS
doubt whether you would believe it or
not. So raise them and learn, and |
should not be surprised If you in
crease your acreage every year there
after.
