Condensed milk contains about !
ounce Of protein per 12-ounce can.
Whole-milk cheese contains about 4
ounces of protein per pound.
Cottage cheese contains about 8
ounces Of protein per pound.
Dried legumes:
Beans contain ounces of protein
per pound.
Cowpeas contain 3 ounces Of protein

Nuts:
Almonds contain nearly 2 ounces of
protein per pound.
Walnuts contain little over ounce
of protein per pound.
Cereal foods:
Wheat flour contains 2 ounces of

protein per pound.
Bread contains Il " ounces of protein
per pound.
In considering the amount of pro-
TEN supplied by certain foods, one
must make q distinction between the
cooked and the uncOoked state. Dried
legumcs and cereals, for example.
usually take up considerable water
during cooking, and thus become more
bulky and dilute. A pound Of baked
beans supplies the body with about
one-third as much protein as q pound
OF raw beans. Oatmeal takes up so
much water in cooking that q pound
of boiled oatmeal has only about one
eighth the food value of q pound of
raw. A pound Of raw beans or oatmeal
would have practically the same total
food value after cooking as before, but
their weight would be greater. In the
same way, a cupful of raw beans or
oatmeal would make several cupfuls
when cooked.
When eggs are beaten, as In making
Omelets and meringueS, air Is forced
into them and they become more
bulky. In this way given number of
eggs can often be made to serve more
persons than if they are prepared with
out beating; but each person gets less
eggs. If meat is made into stew, it
goes further, because the water adds
to the bulk Of the dish; but the finished
dish has much lower protein and fuel
value than the original meat. When
meat is cooked without water, as in
roasting, broiling or frying. there is not
much change In its composition.
A housekeeper in choosing foods at
market rightly compares them in their
raw state; but when she is considering
them as they are actually served at
meals, she must remember these differ
ences in cooking. They should also
be considered in choosing dishes at
restaurants. Changes in cooking
cereals are discussed in another bulle-
tin of this series.

Window Boxes, Which May
Be Started at Small Cost,
Make Home More Cheerful

Window boxes made up Of Towering
plants, give an added touch Of bright
ness and pleasure to the home life and
may be started at small outlay, &C.
cordinS to NJ. F. Ahearn, professor Of
landscape gardening In the Kansas
State Agricultural college.
"Both indoor and outdoor boxes may
be used to good advantage" said Pro-
fessor Ahearn, land the most salts
factory outdoor window box may be
had by using evergreens such as red
cedar, arbor vitae, and white and blue
spruce.
"These plants should be from 6 to
IS inches in height and may be Or
ranged effectively by keeping the
taller ones in the center and back, and
the smaller ones in the foreground.
Such a box, after being we'll started.
will require little attention and need
not be protected from wintry weather.
"For the indoor window boxes, Bos-
ton fern, German ivy, variegated peri
Wrinkle, red geraniums, nasturtiums,
snapdragon, and vinca alba may be
used with good effect. All the flowers
should be removed from the plants as
soon as they begin to fade. In order
to obtain the best results the box
plants should be given an application
of fertilizer once or twice q month.
An east or south exposure will be
found best for most window plants"

Food Which Will Provide the
Most Protein at Smallest Cost
(From the United States Department OF
Agriculture.)

(From the United States Department OF
Agriculture)
Because protein Is SO important to
the health of the body. 1t is not con-
sidered desirable in diets consisting OF
the ordinary combinations Of food ma
terials to cut down the quantity In the
daily food below 3Ha ounces per adult
man and proportionate amounts for
women and children.
How then can the housckecper re-
duce the cost Of food and still provide
enough of this necessary but expensive
material? The best way is to learn
how much protein is provided by DIFF
ferent kinds of food and then choose
the kinds which will furnish what the
family needs for the lowest cost and
with the least waste. This task will be
easier if the housewife will group In
her mind the foods which are rich In
protein and then consider ways Of sub
shutting less expensive for more ex-
pensive ones.
The lists given below include some
OF the more common foods In which
protein IS abundant and show In gen
cral way the amounts and proportion
of protein In the different kinds as
they are purchased; that is, including
refuse, such as bones and gristle, egg
shells, etc.

common food MATERIALS:

protein per pound.

protein per pound.
Pork contains about ounces Of pro-
TEN per pound.

key, etc, contain from to 2A ounces
Of protein per pound.

Ottawa, Ont. May 1.-THE area es-

fall is $4,000 acres, according to the

The total estimated destruction
through winter killing is 1877, 900 acres
Of fab sown wheat. or 90 per cent. The
condition of winter wheat is reported to
be 60 per cent. This is a lower percent
age than any previous record for the
same Gate since 1909. and reflects the
exceptional severity of the last winter.
1t was too early on April 80 to judge
of the extent to which hay and clover

For wheat the proportion OF seed
ing completed on April 80. is IS per
cent as against 2T per cent last year,
