waIplIts as Food.

The ancients held the walnut in high
esteem. Mortals could and did exist
on acorns, but walnuts were so de-
licious in taste and flavor, so palatable
and nutritious, that they were reyered
as food only for the gods to dine upon.
Modern investigation and modern Gus
toms have popularized the uses OF the
walnut to such an extent that 1t is
now regarded not only as luxury, but
as food of great nutritive value. A
chemical analysis of the nut shows
that 1t is six times as nutritious as
meat No vegetable or fruit, with the
possible exception Of the olive, can be
compared with the walnut as strength
giving and fat producing food. All
nuts are possessed Of elements OF nu-
triton, but the highest in rank Is the
walnut-Mancheste Guardian.

v.o.t.bIs SOUPS or Pursss.

Soup is not necessarily made from
meat stock. Vegetable soups or purees
are made by boiling potatoes, beans.
peas or other vegetables until soft.
MASKING through sieve and then heat
Ing with little liquid (water, milk,
soup stock or whatever seems desir.
able) and fiavoring. Using, '1eftover
vegetables for such purees Is an eco
nomical practice. Milk soups, which
are really milk thickened and favored
with some vegetable. fish or other food.
to give flavor and perhaps thickened
still more with a little flour or stale
breadcrumbs, are both nutritious and
appetizing. They furnish also an ex-
cellent means of using up skimmilk.
Those who wish to bring down the cost
of food should remember that skim
milk, cup of which contains as much
protein as cup Of whole milk, is far
too valuable food to be overlooked.

Navy Bean, For War Crop.

Navy or field beans is one Of the
easiest crops to grow in Missouri and
to the southwark, says Missouri Agri-
cultural college. Beans will make a
good yield ON poorer soil than almost
any other farm crop. They may be
planted then on soil which would not
produce good corn crop. Even on thin
soils they will not require fertilizers.
They can be planted late, after the
spring rush of other crops is over. They
will demand only a third the cultiva-
tion required for corn. A yield Of from
ten to twenty five bushels may be ex-
pected I'm a favorable season and with
average Gaze. These advantages, to
gether with their high food value and
the ease with which they can be stored
make navy beans an excellent war
crop.
