FISH IN TIE DIET.

Fish has long beer looked upon as
brain food. 1t is. That is, for the
fisherman who sits for hours in the
quiet, angling for a fine specimen Of
finhood. MI. Fisherman has every
opportunity in the. world for con-
and developing certain brain cells.
AS a food fish will replace waste
tissue and also furnishes considerable
fat. Inland jewellers will find it much
to their advantage to make frequent
use of high quality canned salmon,
sardines, shrimp and tuna. The can
ned variety has the advantage of al
ways being ready for use. Gained
shrimp erves splendidly as a cock
tail to start the meal. in a creamed or
ala King dish for the main course
or in salad as a foundation and
garnish.
Use salmon and tuna fish in salads,
sandwiches and fish pie dishes. The
tuna makes up much like chicken in a
pie or club sandwich. Try making
the few leftover sardines into a
sandwich paste. A very small amount
will go a very long way.
Fresh Fish Boiled.
An old Greek law required that the
fish dealer must not be seated while
selling a stock of fresh fish. The idea
being that he would hurry up the
matter Of disposal of the stock if he
had tt remain standing.
An attractive way to prepare a fair
size fish is to clear and wash it
thoroughly and place the fish in a
clean cheese cloth. Drop it in boiling
water to which a tablespoon of vine
gar has been added. Allow. the fish
to. cook slowly until tender. about
twenty minutes to the pound. Add
salt an hour before taking from fire.
Remove fish from cooking cloth to
a hot platter which has been rubbed
with oleomargarine. Garnish fish with
parsley and lemon sliced very thin.
Serve small potatoes boiled and fresh
ly covered with bits of parsley in
melted oleomargarine. A fish sauce
will make his a most appetizing main
dinner course

(By Jean Prescott Adams. Domestic
Science Adviser for Armour & Coz
Mrs. Cordelia Raynor, New York
regent Of the national society, Daugh-

able bit Of space at the country home.
Let us all join this gardening force

nation on soils, seeds n care of

There are splendid magazine and
newspaper articles on gardening, eth
er clip these for the gardener or send
her a reference to them.
Miss Florence King, president of the
Chicago Woman's Association of Com
merce, has a very broad vision regard
ing the possibilities for women in s
ricultural work. Miss King advocates
learning to run tractors n I'M
derstanding the up-to-date machinery
of extensive planting and c%ultivating,
as we'll as to know how to take care
of the product after it is gathered.
Prominent ONE in Denver and
San Francisco are doing the same. Let
US each APPOINT herself a committee of
one to see that all available land is
planted to the food that will grow
best under the given conditions.
Feed your soil with the proper fer
tilizer first. Then plan simple plots
allowing room for .c%ultivating. Ask the
Department of Agriculture of the U.
S. government for advice regarding
soil and planting.

Gas Kills Greenhouse Pests.

Hydrocyanic-acid gas is the best
weapon to use against insects infesting
the foliage of ornamental plants In
greenhouses. 1t Is cheaper and more
effective than any other means and It
Is successful against nearly all in
sects. 1t is explained in new publ
cation Of the United States depart
r1ent of agriculture, "FumigatIon of
Ornamental Greenhouse Plants With
Hydrocyanic-Acid Gas" that IN green
houses containing large variety OF
plants slight injury may result to the
tender growths of some plants even
when the fumigation is properly done.
This injury is not permanent, how
ever, and such plants will show new
vigorous growth In a short time. In
fact, the growth OF many plants IL
stimulated by this gas. Cyanide Is a
very poisonous substance and extreme
care must be used In its handling.
