COTTAGE CHEESE AS FOOD.
Rich in Protein and an Important Meat
Substitute.

People have been making and eating
cottage cheese for many years, but it is
doubtful whether or not they have given
much thought as to the food value of
bit.
Cottage cheese is high protein food,
and one of the important meat substi-
tutes. 1t contains larger percentage
of protein, pound for pound, than do
most meats and at a much lower cost.
In every pound of cottage cheese
there Is about three ounces. or one
fifth Of pound of protein, practically
all of which is digestible Meats have
a certain waste, such as bone and griz-
zie, and usually contain less protein:
and 1t Is well-known fact that meats
cost more per pound.
Protein Is the chief body builder, and
1t IS needed III the system TO repair and
make new muscles, tissues and bone.
pound of cottage cheese daily will
furnish the protein necessary for the or
binary adult engaged in a sedentarv oc-
lcupation.
For supplying protein, one pound OF
cottage cheese is equal to about one and
one-fourth pounds of beef, one and one.
half pounds of pork, one and one halt
pounds of fowl, one and one third
pounds Of veal or one and one third
pounds of lamb.
For supplying energy to the human
body, cottage cheese Is not equal to the
various kinds of meats, pound fol
pound, but it is a much cheaper SQUIRE,
| than most meats at the present prices
One pound of cottage cheese equals
about eight to II ounces of beef, i
ounces of fowl, five to six ounces OF
pork, Is ounces of veal or seven ounces
of lamb.
The addition of a little cream or but
ter to the cottage cheese Will increase
Its energy value. Eat more cottage
cheese; save meat.

COOKING ON A U-BOAT.
woman Training 1000 Navy Men to
Meet New Conditions.

Cooking under water has its dlsadvan-
tages but when you have a waterproof
kitchen on one OF Uncle Sans safe sub
marines it isn't so bad, according to Mrs
n. y. Wilson OF Philadelphia, who trains
cooks for the United States Navy.
Enlisted men are Mrs. Wilson's students
and pupils and she conducts some OF her
cooking classes on board battleships and
submarines. She tells of being 391a hours
under water on submarine.
Housewives who are interested in sub
marine cooking will learn from Mrs. vii
son that the intense cold from the bottom
OF the ocean must be considered by the
submarine cook.
Electric stoves are used, she saws.
"but food which requires a high tempa-
ture must be cooked before the submarine
is submerged
She tells Of her work in this way:
Il began with a class Of 80 men. To-
day | have 1000 men under training
i have spent days taking ranges apart
to find out why the men could not make

! because they had kept the flames too high.
| The work done has conformed entirely to
navy requirements One must find the
amount OF food named in the regulations
to serve at a cost of 10 cents a day.
| The cooking course lasts five weeks
every day from $50 am. to p IN. Every
man must know how to make bread and
