Cooking Fats Prepare at Home.

Cooking Fats Prepared at Home.
Housekeepers! Why pay at least 25
cents per pound for a cooking fat when
you can easily prepare one in your
home for much less?
Beef suet may be purchased at as
low a figure as l2la cents per pound at
the market now. This as compared
with leaf lard at IS cents and butter
at so cents is good argument for its
more general use. Beef suet is little
hard to cook with because it does not
cream readily in cake making. This
may be overcome, without greatly in
creasing the cost, by rendering it with
q softer fat. Here are three softening
fats that have proved to be very salts
factory.
Softened fat No. (costs lS cents
per pounds parts unrendered beef
suet. part cottonseed oil.
Softened fat No. (costs 10 cents
per pound-2 parts unrendered beef
suet. part leaf lard.
Softened fat No. 3 (costs Is cents
per pound. )-2 parts unrendered beef
suet. part chicken fat.
To prepare, cut the fat very fine, or
put thru q food chopper. Heat in a
double boiler until the fat is completely
melted. A double boiler may be i'm
provised by placing one vessel in a
larger one containing water. By using
this method your fat will not scorch.
Strain melted fat thru cloth, squeez-
ing to remove all fat. The cracklings
may be used in making soap.
Flank suet costs just the same as
kidney suet and is usually of such a
consistency when rendered that no
other fat need be added for softening.
A cake in which the fat was entirely
flank suet was tasted by at least one
hundred women and not one could tell
what the fat was and several thought
it a butter cake.-Magdalene Hahn,
C. A. c., Fort Collins, Colorado.

 Eight bodies were placed tonight m 1 the morgue at south Amboy and

 i The plant, which is being operated for the government by the Gillespis company, employs several thousand men and women working in three shifts, but officials said there were
