seventy women whose membership
treats and teaches among the manned

back the wasted muscles and diSuSed

patient tutoring instilling dizziness in
new arts and vOcations which the hos
pital schools are planning for the re-
turned soldier.
Most of the "Blue Gowns" were re-
cruited from the instruction stats of
manual training schools and civilian
hospitals.

chine for harvesting clover seed has
been perfected by J. L. Canada, a pi-

Mr.. Canada devised an exhaust fan

lifts the seeds out and deposits them
into a suitable receptacle. The ma.

water is long enough.
The winter vegetables are excellent,
too, combined with meats to make
savory stews. For recipes o, such
combinations see Leaflet No. 5.
Canned Vegetables
Often canned vegetables need only
skillful seasoning to make them as
good as fresh. Chopped onions or
green peppers may add good flavor.
OF course, you will use any canned
vegetables about which there is sus-
picion of spoilage,
Canned corn is very good when
turned into baking dish, milk and
seasoning added, and the whole heat
ed through in the oven and allowed
to brown on top. Outside stalks of
celery cut up, a green pepper, or both,
added before baking, make the dish
more appetizing.
Vegetable ChOwder
Here is mixed vegetable chowder
that is good. 1t makes a substantial
dish. Rice and okra may be. substi-
tuted for potatoes and carrots or al
most any vegetables may be used.

pint canned tomatoes, 2 tablespoons

tablespoons -four, cups skim milk,
2 teaspoons salt.
Cut potatoes and carrots in small
pieces, add enough water to cover,
and cook for 20 minutes DO not drain
off the water. Brown the chopped
onion in the fat for five minutes. Add
this and the tomatoes to the vege-
tables. Heat to boiling. add two cups
of skim milk, and thicken with -four
Celery tops or green peppers give
good flavor, too.
Spinach Loaf
You can make small can of spin
ach, chard, or beet tops, serve seven
or eight people by making into loaf

Asparagus or string beans are also
good served this way.

and one teaspoon salt Melt fat and

Form into a loaf and bake 20 or 30
minutes.
Dried Vegetables
Do you use them? They are as
good as canned or better. Dried beans
and peas are well known. Besides
these, you can dry all KINGS yU:rself,
especially II you have garden and
get them fresh. The salts and ether
valuable narts are the same as in the
fresh. Farmers Bulletin 4S1 tells
how to dry vegetables.
To prepare dried vegetables for
cooking first soak them for several
hours or overnight so that they will
take up the water lost in drying.
Then cook them exactly as you would
fresh ones-as a vegetable. in soups,
or with meat. They make a good,
economical addition to your winter
meals.
Vegetables Save Meat and Wheat
Beans and peas have long been used
in place of some meat. Like meat,
they furnish protein which the body
needs.
Potatoes and other starchy veget-
ables can save wheat. Use them in
bread at the meals where such veget-
ables are sreved. Bread and starchy
vegetables are both good sources of
body fuel.
