Harvesting.

The greatest value per acre can
usually be obtained when the crop is
cut and used for hay.
If the crop is cut just as the heads
begin to turn, the greatest value will
be realized, since the straw is green
at that time and the whole plant is
very palatable and makes high quail
ity of feed.

are on my desk at the
present moment many many
= letters from housewives all over
the country. In the main they tell
me that the husbands, sons and
daughters are no longer able to buy
a really substantial luncheon at
noon. The restaurants, and even
the garden variety" OF lunch rooms
are asking enormous prices. Sal
aries have not increased noticeably.
And each asks me to help solve this
, problem that does not admit OF a
solution. One thrifty housewife OF
my acquaintance has handled this
problem, and consider hers a solu-
ton worth passing on.
She lived in the suburbs OF a large
city. Her husband earned $50 a
week and her young daughter and
son earned $12 and SIS, respect

And another time she gave:
Two tongue sandwiches on rye
bread, one bran muffin, split and

one piece cake, hot milk cocoa in

And still another:
One chicken salad sandwich with
lettuce.
Peanut butter sandwich on split
corn muffin.
One apple.
One pear.
Three salted nuts.
Hot tea in the not-cold bottle.
Every meal was not exactly bal
anced, but by the end of each week
the properly balanced ration was
attained. On cold days you might
give a nourishing soup instead OF
tea or coffee.
Some OF the lunches were made
from left-overs. Sometimes she
purchased 10 or Is cents worth OF
cooked meat at the delicatessen
