A SHIRT IN RUSSIA

The difficulties hedging in existence
of those who live in Petrograd during
these times of disturbed regime and
shortage in necessities of life, extend
in all their details to the ordinarily
simple task of buying shirt. ITO
accomplish this takes time, patience
and determination.
First, one must find the shirt One
may visit forty shops before he finds
one of the proper size The question
Of preference of style is not to be
considered for one Boment Otherwise
zone will never get the shirt. Having
found something that resembles a
shirt of the proper size, one deposit
es a small payment to hold it.
The next thing is to convince ones

rad now that he needs shirt If the
house committee passes favorably on
the subject, it so reports to the pre-
cinct or district Soviet" or commune.
This is turn reports to the commisary
in change of the distribution of shirts
and kindred articles of clothing
If one, is quite lucky, after five or
six days time, he receives a duly sign
ed and sealed permit to buy shirt.
Then he buys it but ordinarily pays
the Russian equivalent of SIS or $40

FAT IS FUEL FOR FIGHTERS
Waste Of Fat Unpatriotic and
81, Unnecessary. 2.

Declaring that "fat is fuel for
fighters" Miss Gertrude Nc
Cheyne, extension professor Of
home economics, Utah Agricul-
tural College, says that any waste
of fats is not only unpatriotic
but unnecessary. Hard fats.
strong fats, any kind Of fats can
be utilized in cooking, says Miss
McCheyne and to prove her as
sertion she has prepared the fol-
lowing pertinent suggestions on
fat utilization:
To mako fats savory-To make
use of fats of strong flavor or Cd
or, brown with each pound OF fat
a. thick slice of onion, one sour
apple and a scant teaspoon Of
ground thyme or mixed herbs in
a cloth. or bay leaf and few
berries Of allspice. These fats
can be used to saute potatoes.
hominy, rice, etc. or for flavoring
vegetables or soup.
To render fats-Chop fat by
grinding through food grinder.
Render it by heating it in the top
part of double boiler, then strain
off the clear fat. or render it by
heating the fat in boiling water,
then straining. allowing it to cool
The cake of fat can then be re-
moved. Fat keeps better il not
heated at too high a temperature.
Store the fat in clean tin pals or
in crooks tightly covered. Keep
in a cool place.
To use the cracklings-Salt
them put them into a glass jar.
Use them in corn bread or suet
buildings or in combination with
lean chopped meat in various
dishes.
To use hard fats-Beef kidney
fat, lamb, and mutton fat are not
satisfactory to use in -four mix
lures because they must be melt
ed in order for them to mix easily
and because the product made
from them dried out more rapidly
than it does when soft fat is used.
Soften hard fats by mixing two
parts of hard fat with one part of
soft fat, such as lard or COTTON
The Logan Republican. [volume] (Logan, Utah) 1902-1924, 1918-03-05

To utilize mutton fat-Remove
the strong flavor from mutton fat
and soften it thus: Melt two
parts of mutton and one part Ct
soft fat in Milk (sour being pre-
ferred) in a double boiler, (H cup
milk being used to each pound of
fat.) Strain the rendered fat
through cloth, cool and remove
the cake of fat from the milk.
This may be used as a butter sub.
stitute in cooking.
To clarity fats-Mix boiling
water with the fats, boil, strain.
allow the mixture to cool, remove
cake of fat. TO remove favors
of food from fat, melt the fat, add
thick slices of raw potato and
heat gradually until it ceases to
bubble and the potatoes become
brown.

MORE FRESH AIR, MORE
EGGS
Fresh Air ~ Essential ~ Clean
Water and Good Feed.

Give your hens more fresh al
and they will give you more eggs
according to Professor II. "
Sanborn, extension poultry ex
pert, Utah Agricultural College
Professor Sanborn says that fresl
air is as necessary to laying hen
as clean water and good feed.
BADLY ventilated houses
make hens lose vitality says
Professor Sanborn. "rhey
lay fewer eggs, and often be-
come sick and stop laying al
together. Ventilation is need
ed also to keep the house dry.
When the circulation Of the
air is poor in cold weather.
moisture collects on the inside
OF the walls and roof. At a
freezing temperature under
such conditions there is a
rapid accumulation OF frost
on these surfaces which
makes the house very uncom-
Portable.
Ventilation to provide pure
air and dryness in a poultry
house is simply matter Of
keeping doors and windows
open as much as is necessary
to keep the walls dry. Few
poultry keepers have any
difficulty in doing this until
the temperature goes low
enough to freeze water in the
house. Then the tendency
is to close doors and windows
to keep the house warm. A
general rule may be followed
