SHORTCAKE MADE
OF SUBSTITUTES
Favored Dessert Not to Be De-
MED Us Even in This Year
of>WheatIeSS Meals.
SEVERAL EXCELLENT RECIPES
After Strawberries Have Passed Use
Raspberries, BIackberries, Stoned
Cherries, Sliced Peaches,
Bananas, Etc.

Here is a word to cheer the men.
Shortcake, the dessert that ranks with
pie in masculine favor, is not denied
u.s. even in this year of wheatless
meals. The conservation program and
shortcake are not incompatible, pro-
vided the "cake" is made of the wheat
substitutes. Here are some good ones,
all of them wheatless. Try one of
them the next time you serve straw
berries or raspberrieS.
After the. strawberry season make
shortcakes with raspberries, blackber--
ries. stoned cherries, blueberries, sliced
peaches, sliced bananas, etc.
There are two types of crust for
shortcake that people like, one made
like biscuits and unsweetened, the
other like plain sweet cake. Each
kind has its advocates.
Shortcake Without Wheat Flour.
Those who like shortcake made from
rich, unsweetened biscuit dough,
baked in a sheet, split and buttered
while hot, and with a thick layer of
the crushed or sliced berries sweet
ened and placed between the layers of
crust and on top, will like these short
cakes.

Split and butter and put in the filling

Rolled Oats or aarley-FIour Shortcake.
Rolled oats ground through the food
chopper and mixed with corn flour
also makes a good shortcake. In the
above recipe use, IN place OF two cup
fuls of corn flour, one cupful of corn
flour and 11s cupfuls of ground rolled
oats. Or, if you have barley flour, use
13a cupfuls of barley flour in place OF
one cupful of corn flour. The differ
ence in measurements is due to the
difference in weight of these flour sub

wasted. Potatoes do not keep indefi-
nitely, and annually many old potatoes
are allowed to sprout in the cellars
and are ultimately thrown away. The
potato flour which can be made from
them keeps well, so by taking time by
the forelock and making the surplus
stock of old potatoes into flour before
they spoil you avoid the waste of valu-
able food material.
How to Make Potato Flour.
1t is easy to make the potato flour.
Wash the potatoes, boil until tender,
and remove the skins. Force, while
still hot, through potato ricer on to
drying trays. These trays may be
made of Stats of wood covered with
cloth or wire screening held in wooden
frames; indeed, any tray that will let
the air circulate freely from under
meath as we'll as around the tray may
be used. Clean cheeSeclOth should be
spread over it before ricing the pota-
toes on the tray. Place the loaded
trays in the blast of air from an cleo
trio fan, if you have one, or in warm
oven with the door ajar. When COM
pletely dry, grind to the desired fine
ness in hand mill such as is found in
many homes for grinding homegrown
| grain. A coffee mill may be used, or a
food chopper, using the nut knife. If
| these do not grind fine enough, rolling
with a rolling pin and sitting several
| times will help.
1t takes three pounds Of unpeeled
potatoes to make little over half
pound of potato flour, so if you have
| to buy potatoes you should reckon
costs carefully. If you have potatoes
that will go to waste otherwise, save
them in the form Of potato flour.
You can use either the commercial
! potato flour or the homemade product
to greatly reduce the use of wheat
flour in cakes, cookies and breads.
A few recipes for the use of potato
-four are given below.
