NEED CARE IN COOKING
CEREALS MUST BE PREPARED
WITH ExAcTITUpE.
To Bring Out the Full Food Value Of
the Grain Requires skill and
Thought on the Part Of
tho Housewife.

We have no fault to find with the
many excellently prepared and so
called cooked cereals which from time
to time are found appetizing and
agreeable in appearance, but there is
also need OF cereals which require
long-continued cooking to extract the
full value Of the grain and bring it to
a delicious GREATNESS. In this class
are oatmeal, wheat, hominy rice and
J corn. BY whatever name the various
ground preparations are called, they
all need continued, intense cooking to
burst the starch cells, soften the sur
rounding husk tissues, and make them
thoroughly fit for human food.
Cracked wheat is a coarse form Of
wheat with a particularly nutty flavor.
So.called whole" or "pinhead" Oat-
meal has advantages over the more
usual rolled" form. Good hominy,
which is now no longer prepared with
lye, is another breakfast food which
should be more frequently used.
COrnmeal, although fallen into disre-
spect and considered common, per-
haps, is one OF the best of cool wealth
err cereals. 1t is rich in starch and fat
and thus in heat-producing qualities.
Oatmeal is the one cereal containing
the largest amount Of protein or mus
cleforming nutriment. That is, 1t is
comparable to meat or any cereals,
and contains less starch. 1t is there
fore, perhaps, the cereal which should
be most frequently given to the grow
ing child. The whole grain must be
soaked all day and then steamed sew
eral hours, but in this form 1t fur
nishes a splendid and sufficient break
fast cereal.
Next to oatmeal comes wheat with
a higher per cent Of starch. 1t should,
however, be used in as nearly the nat
ural state as possible-that is, the
cracked grain with the outer coat re-
naming in which are stored the i'm
portant mineral elements which make
bone and the best kind of tissue. HON.
my is almost entirely starch and there
fore needs the most perfect cooking
III OlutI luhl tue Sldl Gu blSllo may NC
adequately burst and cooked.
For all Of these cereals either
steam cooker or a fireless cooker is
preferable. Given a half hours quick
boiling at night they may be placed
in the fireless cooker, preferably with
the heated radiator under them, and
allowed to cook slowly with the re-
tanned heat Of the freless. Sufficient
water should always be put on them
" allow perfect swelling OF each grain.
Such cereals, when properly cooked,
are not a "mush" but of a uniform,
creamy consistency. 1t may take time
or rather a little more effort to cook
cereals properly, but the effort is
more than repaid in the quality of the
food. The cool weather cereal should
be point OF special care with the
housewife.

AGED GRANDMOTHER
So Weak She Could Hardly Stand
Made Strong Nv VinOL

Right here In Maysyilc we have
seen such excellent results from Vinol
that 1t Is a pleasure to know it is
doing so much good for old people in
Woodbridge, n. My Grandma
was recovering from the grippe and
was so weak she could hardly stand,
and as she keeps house for my father
and myself, she could not get around
at ALL She had taken cod liver oil and
many other medicines, but nothing
seemed to do her any good. At last
we heard of Vinol and tried 1t, and
Grandma commenced to feel better
right away, and got strong very soon,
80 she gets around as we'll as ever.
We all praise vlnol for It is a SPLEEN
did medicine" Myrtle II. Bum.
The reason Vinol is so successful
in restoring strength to the aged is
because of the rare combination of
tonic iron, the curative medicinal ex-
tractives of fresh Gods livers, beef
peptone and mild native wine. 1t sup
plies iron to the blood, Quickens the
appetite, aids digestion, promotes
proper assimilation of food, and en-
riches the blood and brings back the
strength of renewed health.

Know Your Garden Flowers,

The true way to enjoy flowers is
to get on intimate terms with them
Know them by name, know their char.
acteristics. Learn to love them and
make them a part Of your life. Then
the flowers breathe their secrets, and
you learn little by little that they are
living things-boon companions and
friends. Those who work with flowers
know of other things than seeds and
bulbs--hope and faith and love;
strength, inspiration and happiness.
They gather in more than the blush
Ing flowers themselves. They gather
health and wealth and natures re-
vealed secrets. How natural it is,
then, that those who work with flow
ers should be big and strong and good
and kind. They are very close to the
heart OF life-and nature.

TRICKS OF TIVE RIG LEAGUE
PITCHERS.

In the Womans Home Companion
Is an article on pitching baseball
curves by c. II. Claudy. In II he says;
Few big league pitchers depend on
many varieties OF curve to fool the
batter. No matter what the effect Of a
wide and sweeping curve may be upon
one Of your team mates, a curve ball
in the big league is as easy to hit as
straight one, provided the batter
knows it is coming. But when good
pitcher gets to work on batter, he
doesn't let him know what is coming,
With two strikes and three balls al
most any major league batter is en-
titled to believe that the next pitch
will be a fast one splitting the
plate But IL the pitcher has his nerve
with him, II may be a sudden inshoot.
Expecting the natural straight ball,
and finding about a tenth of a second
before the ball get to the plate that It
Is jumping toward him, the batter
has no time to change his set and
strikes out.
"The essence OF any 'foollng' deliv.
cry, then, it its unexpectedness To
make use of this feature, control of
the 'fooling' delivery is necessary.
And the easiest curve to control is
the curve that is pitched most natur-
ally.
THAT is why the big league pitcher
doesn't try to master the curves of
every other pitcher, but sticks to those
he can do best. The greatest pitcher
Of the game Is famous for his fade
away the ball that withers and dies
at the plate after starting like a can
non ball. But for every 'fadeaway
that Matty ever threw. he pitched
dozen straight or fast or slow balls.
"And they all come from the same
motion No batter can tell by looking
at Matty getting ready, winding up,
and pitching, what is going to come
up to him. 1t is not knowing until the
last fraction of a second whether the
ball will go waist high. plump into the
catcher's mitt, or weakly drop off to
one side, which makes the 'fadeaway' a
terror"

SULPHUR In New Zealand

Sulphur deposits are found on White
island, in the Bay OF Plenty. on the
coast OF the North island OF New zea-
land, about 80 miles from the main
land. This island, which covers
about 600 acres. attains a height Of 900
feet on one side and opens to the sea
on the other. Its topography indicates
an old crater. and the boiling lake on
the island, which is one OF the awe
inspiring sights OF New Zealand, ia a
further evidence OF voloanism. After
the New Zealand Sulphur company
had spent 100000 in preparation for
mining sulphur in this locality a vol
canic disturbance wrecked the camp
and killed ten men.

POINT FOR ROAD BUILDERS
Nee Always We'll to Deviate From
Straight Line, Even in an Effort
TO Get Variety.

TIE guiding principle in designing
the position OF roads and walks is
utility. Nature forms no roads. They
are The work of men and animals, and
would undoubtedly always proceed in
nearly straight lines from point to
poii1t If Instructions Of various kinds
did oot interfere and cause deviations.
Necessity will therefore suggest where
and how they should be introduced. So
far as regards approaches and walks
to and from buildings, the object Of
their introduction is sufficiently appar-
emit; but, in laying out pleasure
grounds, it is a too common practice to
introduce walks for the mere purpose
of variety. This is a very question
able reason at best, and not always
successfully accomplished, but even
in cases of this kind, they should APP
pear to aim for some definite object,
or lead to points Of sufficient impOr-
lance to suggest their utility.
