of DRIED VEGETABLES
sAANY PALATABLE DISHES MAY
BE PREPARED.
iced Especial Care but VIII Repay
Time Given to Them-Exceflent
Hash Is One Composed of Po-
tatoes and lentiis.

Dried vegetables contain great
deal Of nourishment, and if they are
properly prepared they can be made
into very palatable dishes. They
should always be soaked overnight.
rinsed, brought to the boiling point,
and then simmered slowly with a
quarter of a teaspoonful of baking
soda in the water.
When the fresh vegetables are
scarce the good housekeeper can give
a greater variety to her table for a
smaller cost If she uses literally OF
the dried vegetables as well as of the
timed. Baked beans, porridge and
succotash are old standbys that no
one has need to be reminded of-but
with these time-honored dishes many
households seem to end their use OF
dried vegetables.
If you live in locality where you
can get dried sweet corn, or If you
have been forehanded enough to put
1t up for yourself you are very lucky.
for this is far superior to the timed
variety. Canned corn is one OF the
vegetables whose flavor is entirely
changed by being canned. Dried corn
is delicious made into corn mock
oysters and can hardly be told from
the fresh vegetable.
Soak the corn overnight and In the
morning boil 1t up with pinch OF
baking soda. Press out the pulp with
a sharp knife and to pint Of the
pulp add two beaten eggs, one tea
spoonful Of butter and salt, dash OF
pepper, and enough flour to bind. Roll
into small cakes and saute them In
butter, or drop from spoon into hot
fat to make fritters. These may. OF
course, be made of canned corn also,
and they are sometimes improved by
adding little milk and sugar.
Dried beans and peas make very
good purees, but care must be taken
to soak and boil them for sufficiently
long time. When they have boiled
until they are very tender mash them
through a sieve. Place again in the
saucepan and stir into them enough
hot milk. pepper and salt to season
them, add butter and little sugar
before serving.
A very good hash Of potatoes and
lentils is made from one and one-half
cupfuls of cold cooked potatoes, two
cupfuls of boiled lentils. one teaspoon
full Of salt, pepper to taste. half cup.
full Of milk and one teaspoonful OF
onion Juice. Cook the hash In frying
pan until brown. and serve with a to-
mato sauce.

Wire Closets.

A wire cupboard for the kitchen or
pantry is a great convenience. 1t is.
of course, impervious to flies, and
therefore is useful for holding waters.

food which does not, however, need to
be kept in a, refrigerator.
It is also impervious to the attacks

when mice sometimes make their way

These wire cupboards, made Of .
wooden frame over which wire screen

TEXAS PROUD OF THIS MILL
Takes in Raw Cotton at One End and
Turns Out Finished Product at
the Other.

There is only one mill in the world
where cotton is grown at one end of
the plant, ginned, put through the diff
ferent processes of manufacture,
bleached at the other end, and shipped
out as a finished product-sheets and
pillow cases-direct from the factory
to the dealer.
Texas has this unique mill, and is
mighty proud of it, for it is an evil
dence of the states alertness in the
great cotton industry. There are
plenty of mills and bleacheries scat
tered all the way from Maine to
Georgia, but nowhere is the duplicate
of the complete cotton mill which the
late C. w. Post blished in Post
City, Cara county. Texas, down IN int
South Plains" and whenever a Texan
sees goods bearing the brand "Postex
and Cara he feels bit ~puftec
up. Also he shows a decided prefer
ence for these goods grown and made
in his state, which is only self inter
est, after all, for every dollar spent
for them goes back in Texas payroll
for Texas labor, or to Texas farmers
for Texas cotton at time when they
surely need it.
Mr.. Post spent part of his early life
in West Texas and the Panhandle, and
he grew to know the country well
and to love it and believe in its great
future. So when he grew wealthy
he bought a quarter of million acres
on the edge of the Llano Estacado, the
land of Spanish and Indian romance,
and there built a shaded city OF brlck
and iron and timber to surround a
cotton industry that should be the
pride of the state. He provided ample
capital and inisted that the employees
should be we'll paid and well housed
and the product of the mill should De
comparable with the best turned out
by any plant in the country. me
manager adopted a plan that has been
especially pleasing to the dealer. by
which any quantity of goods is shipped
direct from the mill to the purchaser,
freight prepaid. This means much. Tor
railroad tolls to the extent O! ABOUT
10 per cent of the value are tucked
away in the price Of similar goods
manufactured in the East.
One great lesson the European war
is teaching America is self support
and self containment. We will, soon
be making the velvets we used to get
from Belgium, the dye stuffs and
chemicals we obtained from Germany,
and so forth. and this mill is evidence
of what a state like Texas can do IN
the same line. The Fort Worth Rec
ord said recently:
Cara county does not offer the
only opportunity in Texas. There are
a hundred other counties where the
sam, thing can be repeated-yes, two
hundred. And If there were two hun
dred other cotton mills in Texas they
would still take but fraction OF the
staple the state produces annually
| and they would put fifty Thousand
more people at work and keep some
millions of money in Texas that no"
go away"
