 REVENUES.
Daily Thought.

A report to the executive committee of the American Water Works assOci- atiOn, made by George w. Fuller, Leonard Metcalf and George A. John son, shows that returns from fifty plants indicate that labor costs in 1917 were twenty-seven per cent. greater than before the war, while labor has decreased twenty-five to thirty per cent. in efficiency. Con- struction costs have been doubled, coal and fuel oil have doubled in price, and chemicals have gone up between fifty and one hundred per cent. The annual increase in reve- nues has declined below normal, while net revenues, available for capital charges and profits have remained about stationary as rule. Both municipally and cOrpOrately owned plants are included in this report by the war burdens committee.

Small nests of well-seasoned cottage
cheese with a spoonful of raspberry
jelly or jam in the center, served with
crisp crackers or a sandwich, makes
most satisfactory dish.
cauIiflower With Cheese Sauce
CaulifIower should be broken in bits
and allowed to stand a half-hour in
cold water with one tablespoonful of
vinegar added. Cook in boiling, salt
ed water until tender. Serve with the
following cheese sauce: Melt two ta-
blespoonfuls of butter substitute in a
saucepan, add two tablespoonfuls of
corn flour, and cook until the mixture
bubbles; then add a cupful of cold
milk. Cook until all the starchy fla
vor is removed, then add one cupful
Of grated cheese, one-half teaspoonful
Of salt and few grains of paprika.
Butter baking dish and arrange the
caulifower and cheese sauce in layers
until all is used Sprinkle with we'll
buttered crumbs and bake until the
crumbs are a golden brown.
A cupful of any kind of good-fla-
vored cheese added to white sauce
TO serve over toast makes a most
nourishing dish. Cheese should never
be overlooked, as 1t then becomes
tough and stringy. A cheese to be
used in cookery should be rich enough
to melt easily. Creamed potatoes and
cottage cheese may be prepared in the
same way. substituting the cooked po-
tatOes for the caullflower and adding
a little parsley or pimentos for fla
vor.
Potato scones.-Cook one cupful of
cornmeal In two cupfuls of boiling wa
ter until smooth; add one cupful of
mashed potato. two tablespoonfuls of
shortening. a tablespoonful of salt,
cupful of barley flour. three teaspoon
fuls Of baking powder and a we'll
beaten egg. Mix well, roll out and cut
into cakes
