INSTEAD OF MEAT
SOME SUBSTITUTES FOR THE
HIGHEST-PRICED FOOD.
Expert Gives Advice That Is Well
Worth Following at This Time
When Provisions Are Gener-
ally at a High Figure.

| CBy MISS Bah BELL, Missouri College
of Agriculture)
The high meat bill is great cause
| of the high cost of living. Many people
believe that meats are absolutely nee
essary, and they do have the advan-
tage of having a good flavor and being
very easily and quickly cooked, but
many of us would have bigger pocket
books and better health if we spent for
meat only sixth instead of third of
| what we pay for food. One of the
members of the home economics fac
ulty of the University of Missouri
where her father and brothers are do
ing plenty of hard outdoor work. She
gives her mother a vacation, takes
charge in the kitchen herself and feeds
the household to a large extent on
meat substitutes, which they seem to
find we'll adapted to their needs.
Fish is not as good meat substitute
as many people believe. For while it
seems less heavy, it is not less likely
to form Objectionable acids, but milk,
milk products and eggs are good things
to use instead of so much meat A
quart of milk or eight or nine eggs has
about as high food value as a pound
of the best steak, but on most markets
will cost much less. Other wholesome
dishes which should be used to take
the place OF meat are soups, cottage
cheese, cream sauces, variously fla
vored buildings made of milk and
cereal of different kinds, and countless
gested dishes which any good house
wife knows how to prepare.
Boiled eggs cooked in water below
the boiling point are not as hard to di-
gest as many people believe, but If
cooked in very hot water they are more
likely to be leathery and hard to di-
gest. Fried eggs are also more di-
gestible If cooked slowly.
Nuts are becoming more popular as
meat substitutes, although many kinds
of nuts are not cheaper than meat if
bought on the market at present
prices. On many farms, however, it
is merely matter of picking up hick-
DRY NUS, ndZ0luuIS OF WdluutS, ulStcdu
of letting the hogs get them, and on
great many others it Is very easy
matter to raise peanuts enough for the
family and have plenty to fatten few
hogs
Those who wish to try some meat
substitute dishes can secure directions
for making them by writing to the Mis-
souri, college of agriculture at Column
bia. We include here two tried at the
college:
Cottage Cheese-Use sour milk that
has set Warm it slowly in a double
boiler, if one is at hand, until the whey
separates from the curd. Then strain
through cheesecloth; chop fine, mix
with milk or cream and season to taste.
Be careful not to heat too long or too
hot before straining, or the curd will
be tough.
Dreamed Fish in Rice Cases-Line a
buttered mold about quarter of an
inch thick with boiled rice. Fill with
chopped or boned salmon or other fish,
to which thick white sauce has been
added. Brown slightly in the oven,
turn from the mold and serve.

TO END RACE DETERIORATION
Matter That Is Very Largely In the
Hands Of the Mothers Of
the Nation.

"The death rate in this country from
and kidneys has increased ii per cent
in 20 years." declares u noted leader
in the widespread movement among
clubwomen for household efficiency.
What accounts for this appalling in
crease? There Is lack of that some
thing In the human system which Is
necessary to guard 1t against deterlo-
ration and the threatening multitudes
of the ever-present microbes. The in
visible enemies have conquered. How
much OF this is owing to our imper-
feet knowledge of the relative values
of the elements contained in foods, to
the lack Of adequate and hygienic
heating, ventilating and plumbing sys-
tens, to the feeding of the nation on
denatured and adulterated food, we do
not know. But n realization of the
seriousness of this question makes us
feel that the general haphnzard occu-
patton Of housewife requires the most
intelligent attention of every woman
who takes 1t up.
ut Is only recently that women have
begun to realize that housekeeping is
a profession requiring their best In
telligence, and that 1t can and should
be standardized. For years the kitchen
has been relegated to the basement
or to the darkest corner Of the apart
ment, and the whole question of buy
ing and cooking the family rations has
been dismissed as speedily as possible
by the average housekeeper. This
should not be. The solution of the
food problem Is in the hands of the
women. Wholesome, nutritious fosd is
absolutely essential to the well-being
of the family. You cannot success
fully feed fine racehOrse on waste
products, and you cannot nourish a
fine race Of people on poor food"

son than because of its natural promi-
nence, the front entrance of house

TIBETANS KNEW OF. TOBACCO
Good Evidence That the "FiIthy Weed"
Was Used in That Country
Many Centuries Ago.

1t is generally supposed that tobacco
was unknown in the Old World until
after the discovery Of America. But
there is excellent evidence that it was
known and used in Tibet us early as
BIZ B. G. In n note to an article in
the Geographical Review DIR. Barthold
Laufer of the Field Museum of Natur-
al History, Chicago, wrote as follows:
"Among the many curiosities of the
Tibetnn-English dictionary, published
in 1902 by Sarat Chandra Das, the
well-knOwn Bengali student of Tibetan
and explorer of Tibet, we read that
the evil drug tobacco Tin Tibetan tha-
makha) appeared in ancient time
about 100 years after the death OF
Buddha, which would yield the date
377 b. c., and that mention is made Of
tobacco also in the writings of lama
who is dated in the twelfth century A.
d. In 1908 I enjoyed the privilege
Of spending several months In Lhasa
Villa the house of Das in Darjeeling,
and when one evening, in the course
Of learned conversation with him,
ventured to draw his attention to this
chronological anomaly and the post
Columbian Introduction of tobacco in
to Europe and Asia, he replied: This
is your tradition, and that (pointing
to the passage in his dictionary is
our tradition; and our traditions Ger.
tninly are as good as yours"

Matches.

The principle of the ignition OF sui.
phur and phosphorous by friction was
discovered in 1850. An Englishman
named Walker made kind of match
about $50 years later. The first pat.
ent granted in the United States for
a friction match was to Alonzo D.
Phillips, October "a, 1886.
Previous to the invention of matches,
iint-a variety Of quurtz-were much
used for the production of fire, the
iint being struck repeatedly against
1 piece of steel, from which small
particles were detached which were
rendered red hot by the friction. These
were caused to fall into Il mass of
very dry and highly infammablc mat
ter, known as 'tinder," which took
ire from them.
