Card for Your Kitchen.

The States Relations service Of the
United States department of agricul-
tures has recently issued "a Guide in
Baking" The whole thing is printed
ON a card, ten by five and half
inches, suitable to hans on the kitchen
wall. On ii are the measurements Of
flour. The weights ana measures were
tested in the office of Home Economics.
The table, adhered to, will enable the
housewife to make good griddle cakes,
mullins, cakes, cookies, drop biscuits
and nut or raisin bread without using
any wheat flour.
Whatever recipes she has used sue
cessfully with wheat flour, she may
continue to use successfully with sub
stitutes for wheat -four. For instance,
the table shows that, If one cup of
wheat -four was used in a certain
recipe and it is desired to substitute
barley -four, one and three-eighths
cups will be necessary, while all the
other ingredients remain as in the old
recipe. A number of good cOmbina-
lions are worked out, BY mixing two
of the substitutes as indicated, the
housewife win get better results than
If she used one substitute. At the
bottom OF the card are half a dozen
Cautions" aids in baking with sub
stitute fours that have been carefully
worked out by experts. A copy Of the

MAKING MOST OF
ALL VEGETABLES
Families With Backyard Gar
dens win Need to 10 Little
Buying in the Markets.
PRACTICAL HINTS ARE GIVEN
One of the Safest Rules for Keeping
Well Is to Eat Variety 5t Food
Starch and Sue ar Valuable
as Fuel foods.

All over the country war gardens
have been planted to raise food to
help halt the Pun"
This summer millions of cans Of veg
etables will be put up by canneries
and housewives for winter use, but
everyone should have a chance to eat
the fresh vegetables while they are at
their best. If you have more than
you can use now, sell them to your less
fortunate neighbor who has no garden.
What can't be used fresh, can for
winter.
One of the safest rules for keeping
well is to eat, variety of food. Veg
etables are great help in giving va
riety to your meals.
Eat vegetables every day; many are
mild laxatives and they are better than
medicine.
Use many kinds and lots cf them.
Let them take the place of part of the
meat and bread you are using today.
Don't think that because vegetables
contain so much water they are not
good food. They are one of the most
valuable kinds of food we have. Veg
etables have their own particular part
In the diet which neither meats nor
ceysels nor fruits nor sweets can play.
Part That Vegetables Play.
They are appetizers. Their delicious
f1avors stimulate digestion.
They furnish fuel and protein. Veg
etables, such as sweet potatoes,
green lima beans, green corn, white
potatoes, green peas, onions, beets,
carrots and squash contain enough
starch and sugar to make them valu-
able as fuel foods. Seine of these are
protein foods, too.
They help prevent constipation.
The woody part of vegetables is val
liable to give bulk to the food. For
very small children it should be re-
moved by rubbing the cooked yegeta-
BILE through a sieve, but grown per
son of sound digestion needs some Vf
this woody portion. Don't cut out all
the hard part from asparagus and such
foods. The mild acid in such vege
tables as tomatoes has some laxative
effect.
Minerals Are Needed.
They furnish mineral matter. This
is one of the most important parts
that vegetables play in the diet. With
out small amounts of mineral salts no
part OF the body can be built; they
are needed In nerves, brain, bone,
blood and muscles. Even after growth
these minerals must be furnished TO
replace the parts of the body used up
by exercise. They have an important
part in keeping the different parts Of
the body working smoothly. Eat
variety CT vegetables to furnish these
uuch-needei minerals.
They furnish other important food
constituents about which we. know
but little as yet. We do know, how
ever, that these substances play an
important part in promoting growth In
the young and bodily well-belng for
everyone through life.
Eat the green leaf vegetables, let
tuce, cabbage, caulifiower, Swiss chard,
coIlards, Brussels sprouts, celery and
onions. They are especially rich in
these growth-promoting food constitu-
ents. Don't throw away your beet tops,
onion tops, turnip tops and radish
tops. Serve them for greens.

SURPLUS FRUIT
VEGETABLES
FOR WINTER

1t is especially important this year
that all surplus fruit and vegetables
be put up for winter use. This in
creases the food supply at home and
so we will need to draw less from the
North, so that less cars will be used
and we will have more of surplus
to feed our boys on the other side.
With this in view we believe that
we should reach the largest possible
number of people by having three
day rally at Covington. We are ar
ranging a series of short courses Of
one and two days each at different
points in the parish.
We had a demonstration at Madi-
sonville, Monday, June 10, and at
Folsom, Tuesday, June Ii. Both
were fairly we'll attended. The Fol-
som demonstration was continued
and completed Wednesday, June II.
The Following meetings are to be
held: Pilgrim Rest, June IS; Lewis
| burg, June 20; Audubon, June FL;
| Talisheek, June "a; Savannah Branch,
! June 26.
A joint meeting with Washington
| parish will be held at Sun. The
date will be agreed upon later.
Special attention is being given to
l tomato products. II Canning Club
| girls ever expect to put canned goods
on the market they must have a
standard pack. This is taken up at
the demonstrations, and also the use
O: inferior fruits in products, otner
than the canned tomatoes, and the
use of green tomatoes to prevent
| complete loss from rot.
Not only club girls but all ladies
! are urged to attend these meetings.
! President Wilson is urging tnat more
attention be given to increasing our
| food supply for this winter, and l am
sure that every one is going to do his
/ best since it means more food for
| our boys at the front.
Any one wishing information about
cans or jars may write the parish
agent.
