the children, milk and cream of wheat with
dates.
Midday Dinner

onion on ton. Basic with water in the pan,
and after the chops are removed thicken this
LIQUID with flour to make gravy. Serve with
baked potatoes, graham bread, with peanut but
ter and cabbage salad. For dessert cranberry
and raisin pie. The children should have cocoa
and sugar cookies for dessert.
Supper
Corn chowder with croutons, tea and cakes

with stewed apricots. Milk for the children.
Some other suggestions for economical and
tempting variations of the diet might include
dates, peanuts, figs and currants, used in
breads and cereals, or alone. These are much
better than cheap, Improbable sweets. Maca-
roni and cheese sometimes with tomato sauce
is standby for palatabiity and helps to form
a well-balanced meal. In these days of high
prices rice and hominy may be used instead of
potatoes. And always remember that skim
milk and buttermilk are most nourishing and
cottage cheese the same.
GREAT NEED FOR COOKING CLASSES
The greatest difficulty of all-the crux Of the
matter--is the necessity for the working mans
wife to be Waldorf chef and work at the job
steadily if she hopes to evoke from this limited
range of cheap materials palatable and va
ried menu.
Training in cooking and food values in our
elementary schools is a basic need; it ought
to be put first and all the time, not sneaked
furtively into the curriculum of the high
schools after the girls who need it most have
probably left. There has been wide recogni-
ton of this need of late years. but it could go
further and do no harm.
Such training, combined with the efforts to
control food prices and improve distribution,
seems to offer the most promising solution of
the problem presented by our earnest friend
from Akron, Ohio.
SOME CHEAP BUT APPETIZING DISHES
Merely to illustrate how some of the cheap,
bland, but nutritious foods can be made pala-
table by little skill in combining and hand
ling, few recipes are suggested.
Between a soggy mass of boiled rice offered
as a cereal and the same food cooked so that
each grain is separate and dry, and served
with a gravy or melted cheese sauce for
lavoring, there is all the difference between
forced feeding" and eating with the zest that
means good appetite and flow of digestive
juices.
Rice Pudding
Rice has possibilities which the housewife
should never forget. A delicious rico pudding
is made as follows: Put one quart Of milk,
one-fourth cupful of rice, otie-half teaspoonful
of salt, and from one-fourth to one-half cup
full of sugar in pudding pan and bake two
and one-half hours at low temperature. Stir
three or four times during the first hour. Add
onehalf cupful Of raisins the last hour. This
pudding may be served hot or cold with top
milk or cream.
Green Pepper Potatoes
There are very few people who realize the
possibilities of the leftover potato. Try this
and see if it is not delicious. Run cold pota-
toes through the food grinder or chop them.
Make thin white sauce (skim milk will do for
this). Add one-fourth Of green pepper
chopped and a small amount of onion 10 cup

bottled jams and the like, made largely Of glu
cose coloring matter and spoiled or dried fruits,
are neither profitable nor wholesome, and those
of moderate means too often fall heir 10 this
class of goods, although there are so many ir-
reproachable products on the market.
A SUNDAY MENU FOR S1.25
Let us attempt one more menu-a Sunday
feast-on this limited budget, with, say, an ex-
penditure of SIPS, adding as much to the
days ration as one person more fortunate
would carelessly add TO his walters tips.

FOOD PLEDGES ROLLING IN

tBy Associated Press.l
WASHINGTON. November 4.-Morc
than 100000 were added TO the food
administration pledge enrolment by
to-days reports of activities yesterday
throughout the country. The total as
officially recorded here now stands at
6.G4s.167. and officials OF the adrninis-
tration think that pledges for at least
100000 families will have been
signed before the close of this week
Because work In some sections has
gotten only fairly under way, the work
has been extended until next Saturday.
Vermont, with 5a,7s5 pledges signed
is the first State to pass its goal. Its
apportionment was $4,000. North Caro-
lima turned in the banner report to-
day, jumping from l65.o00 to 22t.sl0.
California still leads. with 44s,562.
Reports of attempts TO interfere with
the food pledge campaign continue to
come in. A fake letter signed "Iier-
bert Hoover" and announcing that a
government inspector would take over
n percentage Of home-canned goods,
was circulated in Connecticut, and In
Iowa fake pledge cards informing
housewives that the government would
take all in excess OF 100 Jars of their
canned goods were put out.
