Iris Speaker, New Kind of
Baseball Star-He Is One
Without That Temperament

Iris Speaker, the outfielding star of
the Cleveland Indians, has blossomed
out as a new kind Of star-one without

Lee Fohl, the boss of the Indians, de-
clares Iris to be- the best man-abso-

outfielder has disposition that fits the
temperament of every ball player with
the Indians. He's the friend Of every

Cheaper Foods Are Made III
More Appetizing If Care
Is Used in Preparation

- Proper attention to cooking and sea-
soning will make appetizing dishes of
the cheaper yet nutritious foods. Ac-
cording to the q. S. department Of
agriculture, it will increase greatly
their consumption and thus reduce con-
siderably the use of more expensive
foods now eaten in place Of them. >
Many housewives who complain that
children and adults. will not eat break
fast cereals fail to realize that the GER
eals they serve may be undercooked,
scorched, or improperly seasoned and
thus made unpalatable. Most of the
cheaper foods require careful season
ing and preparation to be fully ,appe-
tizing.
Vegetables properly prepared tempt
the appetite. When they are 5soggy or
poorly seasoned, much of them will be
left on the table.
The quality and flavor of meat or
fish can be injured by overlooking or
improper cooking. If fats are allowed
to burn even a little, they develop un-
pleasant flavors; if this happens in
making gravies and sauces or In fry
ing, the food will usually not be eaten /;
burned meat is also disagreeable and
so are burned vegetables. -

HOMEGROWN Sweet Corn Is
Best-Good Advice on How
To Grow Your Roasting Ears

To have sweet corn at its best, says
the U. S. department Of agriculture, 1t
should be on the fire within Is minutes
after being pulled from the stalk. It
loses quality very rapidly after being
picked because its sugar changes into
starch. This is q fine argument for
having this crop in the home garden,
If space will allow. Those who wish
to grow their own roasting ears will
find the following advice useful:
Corn does best in fertile soil, but
is able to adapt itself to all textures
from sand to clay. To grow it in suf-
fcient quantities for the average fam
lily requires more space, however, than
for most garden vegetables. It should
not be planted until after danger of
frost is past. a..
The rows should be spaced not clos
er than three feet apart, and for the
larger-growing late varieties the dis
tance had best be three and one-half
feet. Stalks should be thinned to
stand from Is to 18 inches in the row.
In planting, the seed is covered with
one or two inches of soil. Cultivation
must be thorough, frequent, and shall
low. ~ -
It Is possible to use the ground occu-
pied by early corn for a fall planting
Of such crops as spinach, turnips, and
kale. Large, late varieties of corn,
however, will occupy the ground for
practically the whole season.

Fireless Cooker and How to &
Get Best Results From Use y
y. :. =s.>2 Of This Convenience

(P-epared by the United States Depart
nent Of Agriculture.)
The time which each kind Of food
should stay in the fireless cocker de-
pends both on the nature Of the food
and on the temperature at which it re-
mains inside the cooker, and before
recipes for use with the fireless cooker
can be prepared one must have some
means of knowing how temperatures
are: preserved in it. In experiments
made in the Office of Home Economics
a 6-quart kettle was filled with boil
ing water and put into the cooker, 1.-The
packing Of which happened to be news
paper. The temperature of the water,
which was 212 degrees r. when put
into the cooker, was found to be 172
degrees F. after four hours had elapsed
and 155 degrees r. after eight hours
had elapsed. This shows the advisable
ity of the common custom of allowing
food to remain undisturbed in the cook
er for at least six or eight hours, OF
in some cases overnight. If soap
stone, hot brick, or other extra source
Of heat is used, less time will be re-
quired. Materials which are denser
than water (sugar sirup as used in
cooking dried fruit), and therefore can
be heated to higher degree, will keep
up the temperature longer when put
into the cooker. Thus the density OF
the food material, as we'll as the
amount and the length of time that the
apparatus retains the heat, must be
taken into consideration in determine
ing how long different materials must
be cooked in the cooker. .
~ The recipes for dishes to be prepared
in the fireless cooker differ somewhat
from those for foods cooked in the or
binary way, chiefly in the amount OF
water or other liquids called for. Less
liquid should be put. into the food to
be- prepared in an ordinary fireless
cooker, since there is no chance for
water to evaporate. The cook must
be guided largely by experience in de-
Gliding how long food should be heated
before being put into the cooker and
how long it should be allowed to re-
main there. ... -.

Accidents Can Be Avoided
by Observing Safety Rules

Statistics show that in the United
States during the year 1916 there
were approximately $1,000 fatal acci-
dents and 100000 serious injuries.

half of this enormous number have
been classified as accidents occurring
to- employees Of the, manufacturing
industries and public service COM
panies throughout the country-50
per cent of which would have been
avoided II workmen had not been
careless, while another 25 per cent
may safely be attributed to thought
lessness. Needless accidents caA

KEEP POULTRY
:. !. IN BACK YARD


The department Of agriculture has a
campaign in full swing for the estab-
lishment Of small flocks of poultry in
back yards of city or suburban dwell
ings. In every household, no matter
how economical the housewife, there
is certain amount of table scraps and
kitchen waste which has feeding val
ne, but which, If not fed, finds its way
into the garbage pail. Poultry is the
only class of domestic animals which
is suitable for converting this waste
material, right where it is produced In
the city, into wholesome and nutritious
food in the form of eggs and poultry
meat. .s p #.'E
Though the value of the product
from each city flock is small of itself
the aggregate is large. A small flock
of hens, even as few as six or eight,
should produce eggs enough, where
used economically, for family of four
or five persons throughout the entire
year, except during the molting period
Of the fall and early winter. BY the
preservation Of surplus eggs produced
during the spring and early summer
this period of scarcity can be provided
for. The keeping Of pullets instead of
hens also will insure the production
of eggs. Not only will the eggs from
the home flock materially reduce the
cost of living. but the superior fresh
ness and quality Of the eggs are in
themselves well worth the effort ex-
pended. Eggs are highly nutritious
food and are so widely used as to be
almost Indispensable, and an occasion
al chicken dinner is relished by every
one. -E H., .
Where conditions render it feasible
and cheap small flOcks Of poultry
should be kept to greater extent
than at present by families In VIII
lagos and towns and especially in the
suburbs Of large cities. The need for
this extension of poultry raising is par
ticularly great in those sections where
the consumption Of poultry products
exceeds the production, with the result
that prices are high.

Sugar Must Be Saved
rs,
Help. to Make Up the Shortage
Among the Allies

If any man has failed to see the
reason why he should cut his plenti-
full apportionment Of two spoonfuls Of
sugar to the one of war time, he can
find it in q recent publication Of the
I. United States department Of agricul-
4 ture explaining the worldwide short
age-especlally the shortage among
the allies-in the supply Of sweets.
Not only has the supply Of sugar
In some parts Of the United States
been short, but there has been an
actual shortage Of more than 2,OOO,-
600 tons annually In the world since
the war began, and the shortage is
likely to continue, the publication says,
primarily because of the destruction
Of a large number of sugar mills and
the devastation Of a considerable area
of sugar-producing lands in Europe.
Prior to the war practically all the
belligerent countries, with the excep-
ton Of the United Kingdom and Italy.
exported sugar, the total amount being
upward of 100000 tons. War, how
ever, has changed the sugar-produc-
ton map and at the same time has
shifted the channels of trade. In 1918
3lt is estimated that the allies must
import q minimum of 100000 tons
Of sugar.
Formerly the United Kingdom and
France depended to a considerable ex-
tent upon Germany, Austria-Hungary
Belgium and Russia for sugar. These
sources were shut off by the war.
The United Kingdom alone thus lost
the source Of more than half of her
normal supply Of sugar and has turned
to new as we'll as other old sources
for her supply. The changes thus
brought about have been largely a
diversion of the product of Mauritius
to the United Kingdom instead Of to
India, and an expansion of the Imports
of unre11ned sugar from Cuba, the
Philippines and Peru. For refined
sugar she drew upon the United States
and Java. However, the allies cannot
turn to such exporting countries as
lava and Mauritius without being
forced to 90 to q much longer distance
and over q more perilous route than
across the Atlantic. If the allies are
compelled to go to these countries 1t
will require an extra amount o6 ship
ping which is needed for transporta-
ton Of American soldiers and supplies
to France and England.
Russia's exports practically ceased
In 1914, and she Is now reported as
somewhat short of sugar. Italy's crop
decreased last year and her imports
have Increased largely since the war
began. Italy's consumption, how
ever, is small and her deficit is not
serious.
