ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
BreadIess Meals Save Wheat.

How are you saving wheat? One
way is to serve breadless meals now
and then. Have you ever tried them?
Breadless meals need planning
ahead. You can't take just any menu
and take the bread out and expect the
family to like it. Bread has several
functions In the meal, and fully de-
serves the high opinion which we have
of 1t. 1t is one of our best foods for
fuel, furnishing carbohydrate in the
form of starch and also bodybuilding
protein and mineral substances. But
If the meal contains enough other food
to furnish the starch and the protein
needed why not save the bread?
Try planning your meals so that
these wheat-saving dishes take the
place of the bread. Potatoes, sweet
potatoes or dasheens-mashed, baked,
boiled or riced-rice, oven-fried corn
meal mush, hominy grits, large hon.
my, baked beans, lima beans, split
peas-all are good served as yege-
tables, with meat and gravy. 1t is not
necessary to serve more than one of
these starchy foods at a meal, but
serving two of them, for instance,
well-browned, crusty croquettes or
fried mush (and these can be cooked
In the oven instead of In the fat ket-
tle) in addition to potatoes or sweet
potatoes, makes the meal more tasty
for many of us and is an easy way of
securing variety. Aside from the
question of economy and convenience
the important thing in such a case is
not the number of cereal foods served,
but the character of the meal as
whole, which must be truly varied and
not made up almost entirely of any
single type of food. We must have
other kinds of food in our diet In
abundance as well as starchy foods.
Therefore, in planning your bread
less meals make sure that you serve
an abundance of fresh vegetables,
such as green cabbage, kale, turnip
tops, onions, onion tops, dandelions
and other green's, asparagus, green
peas, tomatoes, spinach, carrots and
so on, choosing those which are In sea-
son and abundant In your garden or
your market. With varied meal
planned in the usual way, except that
the servings Of the starchy foods and
the vegetables are larger than usual
to make up for the bread, you can
have a breakfast, dinner or supper
which may be pleasing to the taste and
which will meet the body needs.
There are other food combinations
and dishes which you can take adyan-
tage of in planning the meals with
bread. For instance, you may prefer
to replace part Of your usual allow
ance of bread with wheat-saving
dessert. These desserts furnish much
the same food materials as bread, but
in different form: Rice pudding
hominy pudding, Indian pudding. tapi-
oca cream or fruit tapioca, cornstarch
pudding, baked bananas (use bananas
which are underripe, because they are
richer In starch than the ripe ones).
or gingerbread made from the wheat
substitutes.

RHUBARB IS One
OF BEST PLANTS
Advance Guard of Many Good
Things in Way of Fresh
Fruits and Vegetables.
YOUNG LEAVES ARE TENDER
Expert of Department of Agriculture
Relates Her Experience in Making
Delicious Dishes-some Recipes
Are Given.

l always hail with delight the first
tender stalks of rhubarb that grow in
my garden. They are the advance
guard of so many good things in the
way of fresh fruits and vegetables
that the spring and summer bring to
us.
Even the back yard or city garden
can have its clump of rhubarb. l find
1t one of the most useful plants in my
garden. BY cutting out the bloom
stalk before it natures and pulling the
stalks often I have good rhubarb all
summer. If neglected too long the leaf
stalks become woody, but the young
leaves in the center of the crown will
be tender and disable all summer. The
leaf area should not be reduced too
much by harvesting, as it will weaken
the root and reduce the harvest the
following year. Even when fruits come
I do not forget the rhubarD, and in pre-
serving time it repays me for my care
by saving me money.
Making Preserves.
Strawberries and raspberries are
usually expensive to buy by the crate
for preserving, but I make preserves,
using from one-third to one-half by
weight of rhubarb. Both raspberries
and Strawberries have a decided flavor,
so that the rhubarb is not noticeable.
I allow the rhubarb to cook down
until fairly concentrated before adding
the berries The result is a delicious
jam or preserve.
From time to time I cut the rhu-
barb and, If it is not wanted for inn
mediate use, put up a few cans for
winter I have kept some very sue
cessfully by cutting into half-inch
pieces, packing in jars and filling to
overlooking with cold water, then seal
ing the jars as usual.
Later in the summer 1 make a few
Jars of rhubarb conserve, cooking the
rhubarb with sugar until concentrated,
then adding nuts and raisins.
When rhubarb made it's appearance
this spring 1 resolved to find a way to
use it without using more than my
share of sugar. / have found that by
using corn strip can make rhubarb
sauce successfully.
Rhubarb Sauce.
Wash the rhubarb and cut in half
inch pieces. Put three cupfuls of the
cut rhubarb in a saucepan with two
tablespoonfuls of water and cook for
five minutes. Add one and one-half
cupfuls of corn strip and cook to-
gether until the rhubarb is tender.
If you desire a sweeter sauce,
tablespoonful or so of sugar will help.
One of my favorite desserts is rhu-
barb tapioca.
Rhubarb Tapioca.
Soak half cupful of pearl tapioca
In two cupfuls of water until soft. Put
I'm double boiler and cook until clear,
adding more water if necessary. Add
a half teaspoonful of salt and stir In
two cupfuls of rhubarb sauce. When
cool add a teaspoonful of vanilla.
Chill and serve with cream.
Another favorite of mine is rhubarb
scallop. / save all leftover mullins or
biscuits made from the wheat substi-
tutes and grind them into crumbs
These I use as a basis for scalloped
dishes.
Rhubarb Scaiop.
Wash tender rhubarb stalks and cut
into pieces about an inch long. For
each cupful of crumbs use cupful
and half Of the cut rhubarb. II the
crumbs are very dry. moisten slightly

with water. Butter baking dish and
put layer of crumbs sprinkled with
cinnamon or nutmeg, then a layer of
rhubarb and three or four tablespoon
fuls of corn strip. Dot with butter.
Repeat until dish is full, covering the
top with buttered crumbs. Bake for
20 minutes and brown on top. This
may be served hot with or without
sauce.
