A SPHERE.

The United States census tabulates
housekeepers, unless working for fixed
salary or wages. as not engaged in
gainful occupations. This is based on
the old-fashioned idea that a man.
supported a oma when he married
her and that any return she might
make has no market value.
Modern thought is giving the house,
keeper a more exact standing. The
modern ~housekeeper or housewife is
also being held to a stricter account
ing for her guardianship of the house,
hold funds, as is only right.
A large proportion of the family in
come is handled by the woman either
directly or indirectly. She personally
good deal of the family clothing. The
upkeep of the house. care of furni-
ture, etc, is in her hand. If hired help
is employed. it's efficiency is among
her responsibilities. 1t would be fool
ish. therefore, to regard the work she
does in the home in n other sense
than as an equivalent to earning wag-
es or salary.
The fact that women can satisfac-
torily fill openings left by men who
have gone to the front demonstrates
their earning ability beyond question.
The nature of home keeping places
on h h~ousekeeper responsibilities
outside the home. One of the most
important of these outside duties is to
see that market standards are MAIN
tained. The particular woman de-
mands that all foods she buys are
carefully protected from dust and
handling. h encourages her grocer
to buy only quality goods AS they i'm
mediately raise the standard Of the
store and eventually have a notice
BILE effect on the entire community.

COOKING HELPS

The latest food advice advocates
the ause Of more potatoes. We mus,
make the best Of this splendid. food
WHICH can be so plentifully raised in
MANY sections of the U. s.. A.
To make a diet in which potatoes
play a prominent part, a diet con-
duclve Of efficiency, one must wisely
SELECT the foods to serve with pota-
toes.
The potato being low in fat and
protein needs a combining food rich
in fat and protein.
Mashed potatoes dressed with oleo-
margarine and fresl, cream or milk
nave the necessary fat and bit o.
the protein necessary for a meal.
Potatoes all gratin with the oleo-
margarine, milk and a quantity Of
cheese mixed through are rendered
rich in fat and protein. ~
Since we are to use potatoes so
freely it becomes a. patriotic duty to
learn to prepare them properly. y
French chef says that the real test
of a good cook is the quality Of cook
ed potatoes served.
The department of agriculture gives
the following helpful advice:
Potatoes put on to cook in cold
water lose almost twice as much pro-
tein as when plunged at once into
boiling water
Better stall, cook them in their
Jackets, or in their dressing-gowns, as
4hA, French term it, and in this. way
they will lose only one per cent OF

TO assure the boys these foods has

The attempt to- carry out our pledge

Eat More Fish.
One of h first meat alternatives
suggested in rebuilding our menus is
fish. The liberal use Of this healthful
and nutritious food supplied by IL
waters is earnestly recommended by
our o advisors.
Fresh fish is relished when fried,
boiled. broiled or f1anked.
There are. however, man inland
cities and villages where fresh fish is
seldom in the market.
A quality grade of canned fish is
considered by thrifty housewives in
such cities as part of their stock Of
staples.
A can of either shrimp, sardines.
tuna, salmon, lobster, or oysters. put
on the market under a brand nation
ally recognized as a leader in quality
is always satisfactory. The above va
~rieties are listed in the order Of their

For Emergency Use.
While fish should now be used fire.
iquently as a staple food it is well to
keep at least one can of each of the
above listed varieties or your emer-

matter what the temperature Of the
water they are cooked in. But, when
cooked in their jackets, a small tbit
should be removed at each end, OF
the skin pared away about the center
to allow the moisture to escape.
The desirable mealy quality in a
boiled potato is due in part to the
swelling of the starch grains. but
more to the separation of the cells in
cooking. To insure this quality, after
pouring the water of the potatoes
that have finished boiling. place the
kettle and it's contents on the back Of
the stove for a minute. shaking It to
dry off the small amount of moisture
remaining: A perfectly cooked pota-
to should have a white, flaky surface
and be free from moisture to the core.
New potatoes contain less starch than
old potatoes. Cor that reason they are
less mealy. but they are higher in pro-
tein. The composition Of the potato
