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 1t
is successful against nearly all In
sects. 1t is explained in new publ
cation Of the United States depart
ment of agriculture, "Fumigation of
Ornamental Greenhouse Plants With
Hydrocyanic-Acid Cas-" 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 short time. In
fact, the growth of many plants is
stimulated by this gas. Cyanide is a
very poisonous substance and extreme
care must be used in it's handling.

Boxes Most Favored.

The school lunch has always had its
problems for the mother who is eager
to provide q wholesome noon repast for
her school lSiddies. Almost always the
school lunch is hurriedly arranged
item among the mothers early morn
ing duties, and it is sometimes difficult
to give this meal the attention 1t de-
serves.
Wars food conservation problems
school-lunch preparation, but If any Of
the family is entitled to some immun-
ity to food regulations, 1t is the grow
ing child who eats one of his meals
away from home each school day. In
the opinion of the food experts of the
United States department of agricul-
ture. skimping meals for the young
sters is not necessary war measure
and Is tnadvisable. The food special
lists have discussed in publication Of
the department of agriculture the
foods that should make up the school
lunch, the preparation and packing Of
lunches, and serving lunches partly or
wholly prepared at schools. Some sug-
gested bills of fare for the basket
lunch are given in another column.
Number Of Foods Carried.
The number of foods that can be
easily carried has been enlarged of
late by the possibility of using paraffin
paper and parchment paper. in which
moist foods can be wrapped so as to
prevent them from sticking to other
foods. Paper cups. Jelly glasses and
so on. are also q help, for in them
sliced raw fruits, stewed fruits, Gus
tards, cottage cheese and other half
solid foods can be carried.
The quality of the bread used in the
basket lunch is especially important
because 1t is commonly served in the
form of sandwiches and is, therefore,
to be considered not only as food in
itself but also as means Of keeping
other much-needed foods in good and
appetizing condition, or of serving
them in attractive ways.
Variety In breads, too. is more i'm
portant ut this than at other meals
because of the danger of monotony.
Wheat bread, whole-wheat bread, corn,
rye. or oatmeal breads; nut raisin,
and date breads; beaten biscuit, rolls,
crisp baking-powder biscuit, or soda
biscuit, and toast, zwieback and crack
ers may be used in turn to give variety.
Rolls followed out can be made to
hold a large amount of sandwich fill
Ing, which is an advantage at times.
Advantage Of Boxes.
Many kinds Of lunch boxes, pals,
and baskets are now on the market.
The chief advantage Of most boxes and
pals is that they are made of metal
and can. therefore, be easily cleaned
and scalded to keep them in safe con-
dition. Some boxes have the advan-
tage over pals that they can be folded
when empty and strapped with the
school books. Baskets are ventilated
and for this reason suitable for carry
ing moist foods which are likely to
spoil. There is no reason, however,
why small holes cannot be punched in
metal boxes or pals to let In the air.
Baskets can. of course. be washed or
,, scalded, but not so easily as metal

Mashed Potato Dishes.

Most housekeepers know how de.
iicious mashed potatoes can be made
by beating them until light with hot
milk, butter or other good fat. and salt
and pepper, four tablespoonfuls Of hot
milk and one teaspoonful of the fat
for every medium-sized potato. To
make the mashed potatoes little "dif-
ferent," they can be turned into POI
tato souffie by adding the beaten white
of eggs (two eggs to six medium-sized
potatoes), piling lightly in baking
dish and baking in the oven till brown.
Grated cheese added to this souffie Is
good.
