TO COOK SPINACH
VEGETABLE DESERVES SPECIAL
CONSIDERATION.
One Of the Best and Most HeaIthfuI
That Is Grown-Various Ways
of Preparing 1t for the
Table,

Spinach is a standby at all times
of the year. It can be prepared in
many ways, but the basis Of them all
is the first careful looking over, wash
ing and boiling.
AS a rule, the spinach, after wash
ing, contains enough water to start
the boiling, after which it will boil in
it's own liquid.
Special care should be exercised in
the drainage, because nothing is more
unappetizing than wet, soggy mass
of spinach. 1t should always be
drained in a colander and after that
can either be cut with knife or
rubbed through coarse sieve.
The simplest way to serve spinach
is to drain we'll, season with pepper,
salt and a little butter. Boil two eggs
hard and slice over the top and serve
hot.
Spinach and cream.-One quart
spinach, one tablespoonful butter,
three tablespoonfuls Of cream. pepper
! and salt. After the spinach has been
boiled, and passed through wire sieve,
make the butter hot in a saucepan, add
| the Sp1AdCIA, pepper dAO oe1AI w ~e~01S'
Stir it over the fire and add the cream.
If cream is not available, white sauce
may be used instead.
Spinach and Poached Eggs.-Pre-
pare and cream the spinach as In the
preceding recipe, put into a fiat dish
and lay three poached and well drained
eggs on the top and garnish with crou
tons Of fried bread.
Spinach and Gravy.-One quart spin
ach, one tablespoonful butter, one ia
blespoonful flour, four tablespoonful
good gravy, pepper and salt. Prepare
the spinach as usual Stir the f1oul
with the butter in a saucepan for TIVE
minutes. Add the spinach, pepper ant
salt to taste, and as much gravy al
possible, without making it soft. Sti
over the fire until very hot. Dish am

WASHINGTON. Jan. For in
vestigation and experiment in the
utilization, for coloring purposes, of
raw materials grown or produced
in the United States. congress has
been asked by Secretary of the
Treasury McAdoo 10 appropriate
$4,000. Ii is believed this amount
expended by the Bureau OF Cheniis-
try will result in discoveries inn
portant to American dye users.
Investigations by the bureau
will be continued during 1916.
Among these are experiments re-
lating to the application of chemis-
try TO agriculture; investigations
OF the character of tests applied TO
American food products in foreign
countries; Investigations of pres
ent usage and best methods OF pre-
pairing poultry and eggs for market;
Investigations of handling of fish
and shell fish: development OF new
sources OF food supply; investiga-
lions OF the action of food and drug
products on the human organism
and the putting into effect of pro-
visions of the pure food and drug
act. The general expenses of the
bureau are estimated at sS32,-
