Miss Rauch Urges Careful
Cooking and SerUing

Stuffing swells in cooking and will be
soggy if packed too close Rice mixed
with bread crumbs ana seasoned with
onion makes a good surfing In -po-
tato or bread stufTing always add a
little finely chopped onion and a little
sage If you have little corn bread
left from breakfast, use that, adding it
to the potato or bread crumbs for your
turkey stuffing. An egg may be added
to anv of these stuffings.
If you have roasted duck for din
ner, equal quantities of potatoes and
onions chopped together, mixed with a
little salt and pepper ana powdered
sage, make a delicious stuffing.
"a goose is usually stuffed with ap-
pies and bread crumbs.
Baked suash would be a nice vege-
table. Cut it into four-inch squares,
season with salt and pepper and butter
substitute. Place in baking pan, add
cupful of boiling water, and bake it
in a moderate oven for to hours. Or
suaqsh may be peeled and cooked in
boiling water until tender, then drained
and mashed like mashed potatoes.
1.-THE cranberry is always a good ac-
compartment to the turkey Wash and
pick over the eranberries, add an equal
amount of apple, syrup or honey to
sweeten, very small amount of water,
and bake. If baked slowly, it Will be
delicious. This could be cooked on
top of the stove, but would need more
water. 1t may be strained, or served
just as cooked. If you use sweet pota-
toes, nice way to fix them is to boil
and drain. Cook a little syrup with
some fat, dip the potatoes into this and
lake brown.
g For a salad you could use any of
vegetables you canned last summer;
or have an apple and nut salad We
are not asked to save nuts or raisins,
SO use as many as you like; they are
both valuable foods.
elf you have turkey with stuffing
and gravy and vegetables, you will not
need heavy dessert. A well baked ap-
pie stuffed with raisins, dates and nuts
moistened with syrup or honey is delic-
ious. 1t could be served with a custard
sauce, or with maple syrup sauce.
Here is an excellent recipe for an ex-
cellent spiced fruit pudding:
War Pudding.
Mix l teaspoonful cinnomon, 12
teaspoon cloves, IL teaspoon nutmegs,
tablespoons of flour, l cup of raisins,
and l cup of currents or dates. Chop
fine l cup suet and add l tablespoon
flour. Add l tablespoon coda to 1 cup
dark molasses and add to suet. Add
cup milk and l teaspoon salt. Add
cups flour Cor 1 cup of fine sifted bread
crumbs and of flour) or l cup white,
cup rye and l cup graham. Put in
creased mold, cover tightly and steam
] hour in jelly glasses or 8 hours in
large mold.
81 know you will want to have a
Christmas cake in the house. Use any re-
ceipt you have found successful. For
butter use part butter and part fat or
oil Use part sugar and part honey or
molasses. Above ALL save on wheat. |
Take out part of your white flour and |
put in some other flour. The cake will
be just as nice.
"Plan and serve three attractive
meals on Christmas day. Have enough,
for there is plenty; but do not waste. ! |
wish you all Merry Christmas"

Annual Lecture Course

The Salem public library will begin its

New Year. Russia is to be the general

appropriate that we should give some

OF the nations. Every one of the num-
bers is planned to contribute some
one phase to the rounding out of an in
telhgent. picture of the life of Russia.

course, but the outline of the subjects

RELINING A CONE CLUTCH.
w. III. L. writes: Tie clutch lin
ing OF MY car is IN bad shape. Is
II possible for me to replace this
myself, or should it be done at re-
pair shop?
Answer: Almost any motorist
with ordinary mechanical ability
and the required tools can refine a
clutch, if the lining is obtained,
properly cut and shaped from the
manufacturer of the car. 1t is gen
orally quite q JOB to remove the
clutch from the car and reinstall it.,

considerably more labor than does
the refining itself. If one has the
rivets and a proper punch and other

do the work of applying the lining

SCR0FULA AND
HUMORS GIVE WAY

There are many things learned
from experience and observation
that the older generation should
impress upon the younger. Among
them is the fact that scrofula and
other humors, which produce ec-
zema, boils, pimples and other erup-
tions, are most successfully treated
with Hoods Sarsaparilla.
This great medicine is a peculiar
combination of remarkably effective
blood-purifying and health-giving
roots, barks and herbs, which are
gathered especially for it.
Hood S Sarsaparilla has stood the
test of forty years.
Get a bottle today-now-from
your nearest drug store. Always
keep this medicine on hand.

Punetures used to mean lot of
trouble for tire users, but the refine
ments in rims now make quick changes
possible and this bugaboo no longer
worries the average driver.
So called "Fillers" intended to
eliminate the i1convenience of pune
lures, will not fit the same in tires Of
various makes, owing to the difference
in the design, contour and size of tires.
Some filler manufacturers recommend
that, after being in service for a short
time, moro filler be added to take care
of the stretching and other changes in
tires.
Resiliency being a prime requirement
Of pneumatic tires, it is hard to con-
ceive of an improvement on air for
cushion and elasticity. If filters be too
soft, the hinging action of tires will be
localized and not permit of strain dis
tribution to suit construction. No adj
vantage over solid tires can be claimed
for filters unless the filters are resilient.
To secure the desired fexibility, filters
are invariably made of pliable mater
ials-and being of this nature they viii

Objectionable developments are cir

placement at road contact, weight and
effect of centrifugal force, heat and
separation. Rims are caused to sag

clinches may be spread and twisted as
a result of weight, and pounding action,
rim cutting above beads of case, pinched
tubes, and other annoyances can fre-
quently be traced to these irregular.
