It Is very often possible 10 gain
something Of the flavor OF fried
fOods-that crisp surface that tempts
US abby broiling or baking them.
Boiled potatoes may be Drowned in
the oven with a roast and although
thee do absorb some OF the fat from
the meat, this is often fat that can
not be utilized in any other way be-
cause il is too brown when the meat
is cooked. It is also possible TO broil
potatoes under a hot gas flame and
so give them a crisp Drowned sur
face without the use Of fat.
OF course there IS no reason why
we should not occasionally indulge
our taste for fried foods, but there
is every reason why, If we are in the
habit OF serving one or two fried
dishes every day we should give up
this custom. The American house
wife, and the American-born cook.
have often been censured because
they make such frequent use Of the
frying pan. Perhaps the necessity
for conserving fats viii be as bene-
fetal to us as the necessity for con-
serving sugar has been TO the worn-

dyspepsia and the other Ills that are
aggravated by fried food just as the

DON'T FRY

II
You have probably been very
much interested in the placards that
the food administration has posted
in store and shops and on billboards.
Each OF these placards contains a
warning 60 all Of us 10 conserve the
food supply. And each of them gives
US material for serious thought on
this vital question
one Of them urges the conserva-
ton OF fats by eliminating fried
foods. Every housewife ought TO
take this warning in all seriousness.
OF course many. Of Us may say that
the fat we use for frying in these
war times is only the fat that is a
by-product in the form Of drippings
from other foods. We never use
butter or lard for frying nowadays
or at least most Of us don't
But this fat from drippings has
food value and when we fry with it
we make the least Of the food value.
The taste of fried sweet potatoes
is tempting. 20 be sure. but baked
sweet potatoes served with butter
are more nourishing because the
butter in this form has "A real food
value. whereas in the frying process
it has not. We may not care 10
serve drippings in place Of butter
on the table. but we can use them in
place Of butter or other shortening
in the making Of pastry bread and
mullins, and we can use bacon for

 CHICAGO Jan. ,3.-Expecta:io ion of T good sized decrease in the United States visible supply tended tc up- hold the wheat market day The close although unsettled was the same as yesterdays finish to 5s off, with May at 1.S4B@11 and July 149a4 915O. Corn gained s @A oats were unchanged to 12@5s down and provisions varied from 21s decline to a rise of 30 cents.
 Nervousness over and evident pause in export demand formed the chief offset to the prospect that the visible supply total on Monday would show material shrinkage.
 Forecasts of enlarged world ship ments of wheat were counterbalanced by complaints from the west and southwest that crop damage might result from prevailing cold weather and the lack of snow covering Re ports of the virtual closing down of one of the largest milling concerns in Minneapolis also attracted a good deal of notice.
 Corn had a firm tone throughout nearly the entire day.
 Oats followed corn. Trade was local.
 Provisions averaged higher owing to an advance in the hog market to the topmost level ever attained in January A big drop in hog receipts next week is looked for.
