GREAT Value OF

Most Housewives Know That u
Is Excellent Shortening.

Possesses Same Food Value as Lard,
and If Properly Tried Out, 1t Is
Satisfactory Substitute for
Frying Purposes.
1T HAS SOME MEAT TISSUE

Special pains should always be
taken to save and use suct because Of
Its great value in cook ry. Most
housewives know that rcadered suct
Is a very good shorteEfag and very
commonly they also nave special
dishes in which the chopped suet is
used instead of a rendered fat. In
addition to the fat it contains, chopped
suet has some meat tissue. Rendered
suet possesses the same food value as.
lard or other similar shortening and
if properly tried out it Is a satisfactory
substitute for frying purposes, for
shortening, and for making sayOrY
fats. Anyone who regards suet as
useful only in making soap is wrong
for it is a valuable food. It's use for
soap making should be considered only
when the fat has become too rancid
for use or when it has been burned
when used for frying.
Trying Out suet.
Those who do not know how TO rem
der and use suct sometimes object to
it on the ground of its hardness and
special flavor. Fresh suet however,
can be so rendered as to mako a soft
useful fat practically free from any
distinctive flavor or odpr. The follow
ing is simple method for trying out
suet:
Remove the skin and lean parts
from beef fat and cut it into small
pieces. Put it into a saucepan and
cover it with cold water. Place ii on
the stove uncovered. as it is bclieyed
that steam carries away strong aavov
When the water is nearly all eyapo-
rated set the kettle back and LET the
Eat try out. When the fat has ceased
bubblng and the scraps OF skin are
shriveled, allow the scraps TO settle
at the bottom of the kettle, strain the
fat through a cloth, and set Il away
TO cool
This fat is so valuable in cooking

sKUFAKISS CALLS MASS
MEETING At {. HAMMOND
Growing District, Thickly
Peopled, Has No Pub
lie School House.

Sam Skufakiss, socialist councilman
Of the Sixth ward East Hammond),
wants to put over his pet project before
he goes to the army Tuesday. And it is
conceded to be worthy cause.
With this in view Councilman Skufa-
kiss has called a mass meeting of East
Hammond residents at Stadola hall and
invited the board Of education TO at
tend. the time being set for O'Clock
Sunday afternoon.
The project is that Of getting a public
school building and playground for East
Hammond With the building of 200
new homes. a big hotel and other in
creases in the population Of that COM
munity the school accommodations are
inadequate. Unless a school house is
built East Hammond children will have
no place to attend school. the council
man says.
Until now East Hammond children
have attended the Wallace school in
Conkeyville. while the little tots had a
four-room school in a store building
which was remodeled to some extent to
accommodate them.
East Hammonds greatest need aside
from clean streets and alleys and gen
eral sanitary measures by the city is a
school building" said one East Ham
mond citizen today. and We are all
back Of our councilman in this move. '

No Word However on New

Officials Of the state fuel administra-
ton have received no word from Wash
ington regarding the distribution of the
states allotment Of anthracite coal. but
the opinion is expressed IN the state
administration Office that the distribu-
tion plan as announced at Washington
would result in communities distant
from the Indiana coal mines receiving
preference in the disposing Of anthra-
cite.
cities in the northern part Of Indiana
probably will be supplied with greater
quantities of anthracite than cities of
the same size nearer the coal mines in
the southern part of the state. accord
ing to the state administration inter-
probation.
The cities near the coal mines have
been able to obtain bituminous coal at
a cost much less than distant cities
because of the difference in freight rates.
Many persons in the northern part of
the state have equipped their homes
and business places for the use OF an
thracite. 1t would be imposing a greater
hardship. it is believed to require these
persons to change heating devices for
the use of soft coal than It would inn
pose on residents Of southern Indiana
cities and towns to conine themselves
almost exclusively to the use of soft
coal
