TELLS HOW TO SELECT
FATS FOR THE TABLE

Flavor and color have an important
bearing on prices paid for edible fats.
since all are regarded as wholesome when
Of good quality. so the housekeeper must
decide what she is willing to pay for
relatively superficial properties.
These facts are pointed out by the De-
partment of Agriculture. Bulletin 4ss,
Fats and Their Economical Use in the
Home" prepared by the office of home
economics. The bulletin says:
'Tn some instances a higher-priced ar
ticle may be more economical. as clean,
sanitary butter. as compared to q cheap
er. but less sanitary product. In some
instances, where taste or flavor only Is
involved, a less expensive table fat may
answer quite satisfactorily. Good grades
Of cottonseed and peanut oils may be
used when these are less expensive than
corresponding grades OF olive oil.
I'm selecting shortening fats flavor and
odor are to be considered. but attractive
appearance and color are of less i'm
portance."

In this connection. as evidencing the
belief in the supreme importance Of the

Most Of the statements from. these men
who see the handwriting on the wall. can
be taken at their face value. The aero

the war to date, and the side which can

has the best chance Of coming out OF this
gigantic struggle successfully.

flight in the Hispano-suiza motor, which
is the acknowledged superior of any mo-

! already been manufactured at the New
Brunswick plant. although built accurately
to the French specifications, have turned
out most successfully, and, to the aston
ishment of the officials, have developed
more horsepower per pound Of weight
and consume less gasoline than those OF
French make.
