BARLEY FOR 0

Hundreds of millions of bushels oil
barley are raised yearly in the Unit
ed States. This supply heretofore has
been used chiefly for stock feed or
for mailing, but under present condi-
tions the greater part Of the crop Is
being milled into -four which, since
it is both palatable and nutritious,
may well be used to meet the increas-
ing demand for wheat substitutes.
This -four is now on the market. and
it is a patriotic duty to use it to save
the wheat flour.
Give barley flour a trial-you will
wonder why it was not used more be
fore the war. Barley -four does not
keep so well as wheat -four, SO it is
best to buy it in small quantities, even
for home consumption.
The recipes which follow have been
tested in the experimental kitchen of
the Office of Home Economics Of the
United States Department Of Agricul-
ture:
Barley Hot Breads-Barley -four is
very satisfactory for hot breads.
Barley Quick Biscuits cups bar.
ley -four, n t%easpoonful salt, 2 table
spoons fat, A teaspoons baking pow
der, 2-3 cup milk.
Barley Drop Biscuits cups bar.
ley -four, 6 teaspoons baking powder,
4 tablespoons fat, ~ teaspoons SAL,
/ cup milk. Baked in a sheet this
makes a good shortcake buttered and
other fruit.
Barley Muffins-2H cups barley
-four, / cup milk. 2 tablespoons corn
syrup, 4 teaspoons baking powder, "
cup wheat -four, l tablespoon -four. /
tablespoon fat, / egg, Il teaspoon salt.
Barley Spoon Bread cup barley
-four, 1 cup hot boiled hominy grits.
3 tablespoons fat, l teaspoon salt, 2
cups milk, 2 eggs. 2 teaspoons baking
powder.
Barley Yeast Bread-'f you use
your own bread recipe end replace
one-fourth of the wheat -four with bar
ley -four you will be able to make a
very good bread. With the present
need of saving flour. it will be desir-
able for the housekeeper to make less
yeast bread than usual, as one can
not use so large a percentage of wheat
substitute in making yeast breads as
in quick breads.
Barley Pastry-Very good pie crust
can be made with ~all-bariey -four or
using one-half barley and one-half
wheat -four. The first recipe is es-
pecially good for a %one-crust pie.
Pie Crust. Ii cup barley -four,
2 2-3 tablespoons fat, Is teaspoon salt,
cold water.
Pie Crust, 2-h cup barley -four,
Il teaspoon salt, 2 2-3 tablespoons fat,
n cup white -four, Il teaspoon bak-
ing powder, cold water. Two crusts.
Barley Cakes and Cookies-It is not
necessary to go without cake when
such delicious products can be made
that use no wheat -four and but little
sugar. In these recipes the house
keeper, IL she prefers, can dse cream
of tartar with baking soda in the
usual proportions in place of taking
powder.
