the German peace proposals.
Trotzky's declaration was made be-
fore a Central committee of the coun-

denounced in scornful terms the Ger

He said the needs Of the front would

the troops would defend the revolu-

were necessary.

SAVE FAT and SUGAR
AND HELP WIN WAR
N. A. C. EXPERTS TELL HOW TO
CONSERVE IMPORTANT
WAR RATIONS.
NUMEROUS WAYS OF SAVING
All Help to Sustain the Nations War
Program; Various Sugar
Substitutes.

Everyone must have certain amount
OF fat in his diet. Women and chill
dren in Europe are suffering and i'll
for lack of 1t.
Soldiers and sailors, because of hard
physical labor and exposure, must
have rather large allowances of fat.
To win this war-we must share our
supply of Fats by stopping all waste
and reducing the amount we use.
Let us therefore:
Save Butter-On the table use butter
as sparingly as possible, except for
children. Children need butter fat,
either in the form of butter or whole
milk, as it contains necessary growth
promoting substances. When plenty
of whole milk is given children-olcc.
margerines. nut margerines, peanut
butter, jellies, marmalades, nut and
fig pastes, ETC., may to some extent be
used in place of butter. Adopt the
custom of not serving butter at dinner
when or meat gravies are served.
Save lard and butter by not using
| CithCi III NoOhiiS tA4Sy oiO pio-
duced at home.)
Use Less Pastry-If you make pies,
use one crust instead of two. Try the
New England deep apple pie, with only
top crust.
Use Deep Fat Frying Only Occasion
alIy-Make meat and nut loaves in
stead of meat croquettes.
Try baking croquettes in oven.
Reduce Amount of Fat Called for in
your customary recipes-Fats may be
omitted entirely in yeast breads.
Use Vegetable Fats and OiIs-Cotton
seed, corn oi) in cooking.
They are excellent in pastry (use
1-3 less than Of lard and reduce amount
of water.) They are especially salts
factory for deep fat frying, when this
is necessary, as they do not scorch
easily and are slow to absorb odors
and favors. This makes it possible to
use them over and over again.
Use Clarified Fats (Pork, beef, NUT
ton, chicken, etc. and drippings, as
much as possible. To clarity: Heat
any sweet drippings from beef, pork,
mutton, with boiling water, stirring
constantly. When the fat and water
has boiled freely, set aside dish to
cool Remove cold fat and again heat
to drive out all water. Put in crock
for use.
Soap Fats: Fats which can nc
longer be used for deep frying; left:
over fats which are not quite sweet,
may be put in crock to save for fall
soapmaking for home-cleaning.
Recipe: Dissolve 1 can of I've In 1 quart
of water; cool Add 6 pounds of fat,
melted but not hot. Stir until white.
Pour into pan and cut into squares as 1t
hardens Let II dry thoroughly before
using.
Note: II the soap Is to be white the
fat must be clarified.

Service FLAG for Grief.

Service flags are displayed all over
the big city, and It appears to be quite
the patriotic thing for large corpora
tons to Guido each other in showing
the largest number Of employees en-
gagged In the war game. There are
four corporations in New York with a
vague sort Of community interest, each
Of which, though entirely independent,
insists on placing on Its service flag
a star for every employee of the four
corporations now in service. But a
saloonkeeper has the star service ban
ner. 1t hangs before his saloon, and
he has periodically placed upon 1t a
star for every one Of his customers
gone to the front.

Formation Of the States.

From the beginning Of our history
the tendency has been toward terri
torial expansion in the formation of
new states. OF the 13 original states
seven contained less than 10000
square miles, as Vermont, 1854; New
Hampshire, 9,341; Massachusetts,, g.
266; New Jersey, 1924; Connecticut,
4,965; Delaware, 1910; Rhode Island.
1,248. New York contains only 49,
264 square miles. The middle western
states were considered of great size
when formed. Ohio, 41,045 square
miles; Indiana. 36,3S4; Illinois, &c.
665; Michigan, $3.50; Wisconsin, &c.
0O6, but they are small compared with
the far western states Of California,
158,297 square miles; Montana, 146,-
997; Arizona, 113,956; Nevada, no.
800, and Colorado, 103,948. Texas, with
her 265,8 square miles. would almost
make six states as large as New York.

Some Of Those Shown Serve as the
Only Necessary Ornament to the
Winter Headgear.

Hat pins have not been much In ed-
dence for several years, but furirs
are showing a hat pin that will
serve as the only necessary ornament
to the winter hat, says the Dry Gods
Economist.
This pin has a small head In the GEN.
ter surrounded with a circle Of
fur three or four inches In dame
ter. This may be had In various furs
or combinations, to match the trim
ming of the suit.
Also In fur are the huge Pierrot but
tons which will be used later In the
winter to ornament the. coats and
suits. These buttons are two or three
inches in diameter and may be had
In the different furs. Fur drops are
also being shown for winter wear on
coats and suits.

Reduce Sugar Consumption

II the present shortage of sugar is
to be met, It is necessary for each per-
son to reduce his portion to ga pound
week. There are so many sweet
foods available that this patriotic duty
causes as yet no real deprivation. The
sacrifice is very small, but let us not
forget to make 1t.
Omit candy and frosted cakes.
Use less sugar in tea and coffee.
Avoid desserts and cakes requiring
large amounts of sugar
Reduce amounts Of sugar in customary
recipes.
Substitute for sugar coin syrup,
honey,etc. For all practical pur-
poses G syrup equals C sugar
plus IA G liquid. With honey, mo.
lasses. or sorghum use soda, as the
leavening agent, since the acid in
these sugar substitutes calls for a
neutralizing alkali.
Use sweet fruits, such as figs, raisins.
dates, etc. Cook breakfast cereals
with chopped figs, raisins, or dates,
and serve without sugar.
Dried currants are about 75% sugar
Dates currants are about 75% sugar
Raisins currants are about 75% sugar
Prunes are about 1917 sugar
Dried apples, apricots, etc.. are from
60% to 6696 sugar. Use them freely
and save cane and beet sugar. Soak
well, cook slowly in same water, and
they will not need additional sweeten.

Cottage cheese or Dutch cheese, as
II is often called. is one Of the very
best of substitutes for meat. II is
richer in protein than most meats and
is very much cheaper.
Serve 1t often. Teach your family
to like II by serving 1t in different
ways. Season It carefully, and add
enough cream or milk to make It ap-
petizing. Chopped onion or chopped
green pepper, or both, are delightful
addition.
Many people like cottage cheese
with something sweet, as fruit pre-
serves, Jams, etc. Serve with bread
or crackers.
