(<I JUST hate those watery, mushy winter
vegetables" said one of the boarders
at our dining table the other night.
This is the common cry" when it comes to
the serving Of turnips, squash, oyster plant and
parsnips. The individuality of the vegetable
is entirely lost when it is served as watery,
insipid tasting mass. No wants it, and it
is little wonder that the man of the house
gently shoves it away when his patient, we'll
meaning wife puts it before him.
The plants which have in their roots or
underground stems and bulbs large supply
of material for human food are very impor-
tant items of daily diet. We call these
edible tuberous bulbs and roots the root
crops" The beet, potato, turnip, squash,
onion, carrot, satisfy or oyster plant and par
snip all fall under this grouping or vegetables
These vegetables contain from to 1S per
cent of carbohydrate, 1.3 to As per cent of
protein and 0.6 to 1.6 per cent of mnerat
matter, depending upon the vegetable, and are
therefore very valuable in the diet.
The main thing in preparing these winter
vegetables is to make certain that they do not
lose their own flavor in combining other
favors with them. They should be cooked
until tender, but not until they fall apart.
Unless the vegetables are very dry, it is best
to steam them. In doing this no minerals ars
lost and the vegetable retains it's own flavor.
Vegetables prepared this way can be served
with plain butter sauce and seasoned with
salt, pepper and paprika.
Carrots are one of the most economical
vegetables and can be served in many at
tractive ways. The simplest way is to boil
the cubes of carrots in salted water until they
tender, and serve them with melted butter
or a cream sauce. They are also combined
with canned peas and served in this same
style. Carrots cut in strips and boiled, then
Drowned in bacon fat in which some onions
have been fried, make very appetizing dish.
Parsnps are served very simply. Steam
boil them and then drain. Serve with butter
sauce, season with salt and paprika. Parsnips
served in this more elaborate way are very
appetizing. When the parsnips have been
boiled and mashed, season them with butter,
cream, salt and pepper. Add some blanched

a wives find their stock of pickles and
savories running low, and when cold
meat night comes around when the meat
course consists Of some simple made dish, think
regretfulIy Of the well stocked preserve closet
they had in the early fall.
Picking and making simple conserves in the
early spring may seem as out of season as to
eat strawberries in January, but, unlike the
latter extravaganza, it is really the best kind

NHERE is a wall heard IN the land from
cooks who are called on to mix cereals
in new and strange proportions, and it
is mingled with the tears Of those called on to
eat the results.
To such as dwell in this valley of perplexity,
the message of 'rolled oat -four should come
real gospel.
We should be known the People of Pam
pered Palate; strange mixture gives us great
anguish, and mo white bread" still spells hard
ship to US, forgetting that large part of the
world lives and dies eating clark bread.'
On February II we introduced tempered
oat flour and gave its credentials as the best
of wheat substitutes, with recipes and reasons
to prove contentious.
The facts seem so important at this crisis
that are aptulatng the reasons and Civ
ing some additional recipes for using "rolled
oats" flour with both baking powder and yeast
The muffin recipe is the basic one of the lot
and though the yeast recipe calls for half
wheat flour $3.50 saving is a gain when we
are asked to save only 20 per cent.
The rolled oats have been through steam
ing process which makes it possible to grind
them into -four suitable for 100 per cent use
in all batter and dough mixtures where baking
powder soda is used as a lcavcning agent.
The high temperature affects the starch cells,
producing a change whereby they develop
elasticity and cohesiveness-the qualities that
characterize the gluten in high grade wheat
-four The temperature most effective for this
change in the starch is about 1855 degrees.
Standard recipes may be used in which the
tempered" oat flour is substituted entirely for
wheat -four However, because of difference
in food composition there must be some varia-
ton in the proportions of the other ingredients
Due to the high fat content of tempered flour
(7.3 per cent, compared with l per cent ir
wheat less shortening is used in the oat
recipes The fat should be reduced so per cent or
more-in some recipes it is entirely omitted
and SKINNED milk is to be used instead of
whole milk Because of the high phosphoric
acid content of oats it is necessary to use moro
salt than is ordinarily required for wheat
mixtures (about one-half teaspoonfu to cup
of hour).
One pound of tempered oat flour in compari-
son with wheat -four is higher in heat value as
we'll in the protein, fat and mineral content
One pound Of the oat flour supplies to the body
more than enough iron and phosphoric acid
and almost enough lime for the daily require
ment of a man.
Why not use tempered oat flour largely and
let our fighting men and our allies, who are in
condition to experiment. have the wheat
flour? Why quibble with them over 20 or so
or so per cent?

A PERFECT WEEK WITH HOOVER FEATJ RING no MEAT
By VIRGINIA CARTER LEE

0 TTH the necessity for conserv-
w ing the meat supply Gas well
Us the wheat and sugar( the
menus for the coming week have been
planned with that thought in mind.
Four pounds of mutton, two pounds
of stewing beef and quarter of n
pound OF salt pork form the entire
meat supply. or a trifie over one pound
and 4 half for each person during the
week
In addition. however. there are poul-
try and liberal supply of fish. which.
with the appetizing dishes that can be
served in the place of meat (recipes
given give sufficient variety and n
we'll balanced diet.
Arranged as this weeks menus are
for a weekly expenditure of $16, thev
may rightly come within many of the
restrictions laid down by Mr.. Hoover
for the Tationing of the well-to-do
families. These same ration cards al
low two and half pounds of meat
for each person weekly. with no limit
on poultry, game or fish. so that the
caterer who keeps we'll within this
limit can feel that she is doing a
patriotic service, as we'll as feeding
her family wisely and well.
Also in following the ration card n
step further 1t may be interesting to
know that the table butter allowance
is about the same as in our menu ser
vice. that the cooking, kitchen fats.
sugar and wheat flour are used in less
quantities than on the ration list. and
that the quantity of war bread is about
the same.
Taking the menus in detail, the rem
nants of the cod pie witt, potato crust,
are used with pint of stewing oysters
for the chowder on Tuesday. the meat
less day and the remainder of the
panned chicken is utilized, as the fill
