Your z1tuen ty-ffi;Ue
Pounds Of Sugar

NVERY housekeeper will be able to pur-
II, chase twenty-five pounds of sugar at
time for canning over and above her
three pounds per month regular allowance.
All that she has to do is to sign a certificate
issued by the Federal food administration
and leave it with her grocer The certificate
is sent to the Federal Food Administrator Of
the state in which the purchase is made. Why
not use this sugar for making fruit buffers,
which take minimum CT sugar, and save on
your sugar and butter bill for the winter?
The housekeeper is on her honor 10 use this
twenty-five pound allowance for preserving
and canning to the very best advantage It
goes without saying that it must be used for
no other purpose than the conservation Of
fruits and vegetables. Any other would be
backing the Boche! But we should go further
The rich pound for pound preserves and jellies
should be put up in very smel quantities, if at
all. Use the sugar wisely for conservation
purl not for making preserves OF the
luxury type. Whereas fruits may be canned
with boiling water very successfully, it is well
with some Of the smaller berries and more
delicate fruits to use light syrup Zone cupfd
of sugar to two cupsfuI of water) to prevent
shrinkage. Put your sugar allowance mo

Drying Corn

Young, tender corn is almost as necessary
for attractive dried product as it is for
canning. Husk $nd silk the corn, then boil on
the cob three to five minutes Cold dip quickly
and cut the kernels from the cob with sharp
knife. Spread in thin layer to dry. Start
the drying at 40 degrees Fahrenheit gradu-

TIME summer breakfast table would be
nearly equipped if you had the bread
slicer, electric toaster, water bottle and
coffee percolator that were tested in The Trip.
une Institute this week. All Of these devices
stand for convenience and economy and the
solving of the servant problem. Do not insist
"on kicking against the pricks," solving your
new problems in old-fashioned ways. 1t is
short-sghted economy which spells extrava-
gance in the end for the professional house
keeper" to begrudge herself time saving, heat
saving and food saving apparatus.
Slice Your Bread ON the Table
The "Save-A-Loaf" Bread Slicer will cut
bread in four different thcknesses-1s inch,
A-inch, 1a-inch and q inch. 1t may be ad-
justed to any one of the desired thcknesses
by the metal device on one side of the semi
circular knife holder. The thinnest slice
"a -inch) is very appropriate for bread
and butter sandwiches to be served with tea or
salad, while the second and third sizes ara
suitable for table use. The largest size might
be used for the hungry twelve-year-old boy
the farmhand's dinner pail
The old-fashioned, comfortable, family style
Of cutting the bread on the table in order to
avoid cutting too much and having it wasted
is again in high favor-as is any food style
that saves bread. Even the crumbs are con-
served by the wooden base of the slicer. Wheth-
er you making monumental piles of sand
wiches for canteen or picnic, or cutting few
slices for a family of capricous appettes, the
slicer is bread saver, convenience, and fur
nishes trim and uniform slice.
The device consists of wooden base, by 7
inches, upon which is mounted an arch-liko
nickel-plated steel frame that serves as a guide
for the knife. This frame is so attached that
it can be turned down fat on the board wher
not in use.
Across the bottom of the frame is rod or
bar which be locked at various distances
ahead of the frame. When a slice Of bread Is
to be cut the loaf is pushed against this bar
and by changing the position of the latter the
thickness of the slice is varied.
For those who wish an attractive slicer for
the dining table there is de luxe model which
has white enamelled circular board, 1 inches
in diameter, and slicing unit of Sheffield steel
nickelled copper. An ivory handled steel
knife accompanies this model. The same vari-

The Manning Bowman Electric Toaster is
an upright type constructed of nickel plated
steel and has fibre tipped base so that the
heat will not affect any surface on which it
may rest There is spring-hinged door on
each side and two slices of bread can be toasted
at one time very handily. The hot toast is
most conveniently turned on the spring door
when lowered by the wooden knob to hori
zontal position.
On the top of the device is rack for holding
the toast over the heat after it is made or for
drying out slices Of fresh bread immediately
before toasting.
The appliance can be used from lamp

1t has nickel-plated metal case, containr,
q glass filter resting upon wire spring hasa
with cork stopper and a screw cap cover. To
convert this cover into a drinking cup small
spring handle, which can be quickly claimed
over the edge and just as quickly removed, s
provided. This is an individual, not fam,y
trait.
The bottle under test showed very good hea.
and cold retention properties. A quart of ics.

of 38 degrees Fahrenheit had reached 65 DO
grees Fahrenheit three days later, while tbe
same quantity of boiling water had still
temperature of 1875 degrees Fahrenheit TWENTY
four hours after being placed in the receptacle
In making a practical test to duplicate con.
water at 81 degrees Fahrenheit was placed !,
the bottle. Four hours later it was Opened
and found to register 43 degrees Fahrenheit
which is perhaps more healthful tempcratm,
for drinking than 81 degrees. One cupful q,
water was taken out, the bottle closed ana
four hours later the temperature was found ia
be SO degrees Fahrenheit, which would also b.
considered cool enough for drinking Aftery
moving one more cupful of water the bottle wa,
left closed until twenty-four hours from The
beginning of the experiment, and when opened
it was found that the remaining water had
reached Sc degrees Fahrenheit, which would Be-
rather too warm, 45 to so degrees Fahrenheit
being an average temperature that would be
described as cool This proves that the bottle
will serve its purpose we'll overnight or for
an eight-hour motor trip. At home or abroad

Corn in the Can
Remove husk and silk and blanch on the cob
in boiling water for three or five minutes. Cold
dip quickly and with sharp knife cut the ker-
nels from the cob. The kernels may be scored
before cutting if desired Pack the corn ilnme-
diately into the hot sterilized jars and fill to
within one-quarter inch from the top to allow
for expansion. (Whereas most vegetables
shrink on canning the starch of the corn
swells)
Adjust the sterilzed rubber, add one tea
spoonful of salt to each quart jar and boiling
water to overfiowing. Partially seal and ster-
iiize in boiling water for three hours in water
seal, 214 degrees F.. for two hours, or under
five pounds pressure for one and one-half
hours. When sterilized complete the seal and
cool as quickly as possible, but avoid leaving
the jars in draft, breakage may result
If the housekeeper wishes to can the corn on
the cob the method is the This is not ad-
vlsed because of the high price and scarcity
of large containers and the waste space in
packing.
If certain precautions are taken the chance
of fat sour is greatly minimized. Freshly
gathered young corn, rapid packing after
oanching and quick cooling after the correct
period of sterilization are practically sure to
spell success in canning corn.
Vegetable mixtures with corn as one of the
ingredients make very attractive and useful
canned products for winter soups vege-
tables. Any desired combination of the vege-
tables in may be used. Tomatoes aud
corn go we'll together using two parts to one
part corn. If lima beans okra are combined
with corn and tomatoes, part corn, one
part beans or ok,a and three parts tomatoes
The vegetables are prepared before canning as
though they were to be put up separately
The time for sterilization Of vegetable mixtures
is two hours in boiling water or water SEAL
2i4 degrees Fahrenheit, hour under five
pounds pressure. A larger proportion Of corn
and beans would necessitate longer period OF

use of the more expensive sweetenng agents.
such as the maple products, honey, etc.
Maple Fondant
Maybe you don't know that a delicious
creamy fondant be made from maple
syrup. We know home folks can do it be
cause we tried it out right here in the Inst-
tute laboratory. To make pound of maple
fondant, boil one pint Of maple syrup until
the candy thermometer registers 241 degrees
Fahrenheit. (Test your thermometer in boil
ing water before making the fonGant to as
certain if it registers 2l2 degrees Fahrenheit
If it doesn't, then be sure to allow for the
difference when making any candy) Cook
slowly to prevent boiling over Wash the
sides of the pan with piece of cheesecoth
dipped in boiling water, to avoid crystalliza-
ton When the syrup has reached 241 de
grees Fahrenheit, pour it onto cold platter
which has been dipped in cold water Let
stand few minutes to cool, but not long
enough tc harden. Begin working the syrup
with fork, wooden spoon or paddle, and
continue dong so until it is creamy and
very pale tan in color. When it changes to
stiff, lumpy consistency, knead with the
hands until smooth. Put in bowl and cover
with oil paper to keep out the air until used
A candy thermometer is very essential in
making fondant, more SO than with any other
confection. Only when the cook is experi-
enced in fondant making may the thermom-
eter be dispensed with. good one can be
purchased for $3.50
This fondant has various uses Roll small
pieces of il into little balls, let stand in coo,
place for fifteen minutes, and dip in melted
bitter chocolate. Chocolate melts at verv
low temperature and when it registers about
80 degrees Fahrenheit it is ready for dipping.

balls Of fondant into the melted chocolate
and remove with two-tincd for. or q regular
