All Highly Trained.
All women sent over so far are high

in Washington has ruled that only
these trained women may be sent over

Practically every troop convoy

When Thrift and Patriotism Conflict

This is an anchor to windward We can
near some one say that it is an easy matter
to be patriotic and save wheat and surar
and beef for the Allies if you have the price
OF rice flour, honey and lobster. But if Won
haven't, what then?
Cornmeal and potatoes are cheaper than
wheat and can be used to even up the ac
count; sugars can we'll train ourselves
to do without to a large extent, for we have
ruined our sense of taste and our digestions
by masking the natural favors and frut
sugars with too much sucrose; fish and sra
foods OF all kinds are becoming more plenti
1ul and cheaper and should be used as suh
sttutes for meats whenever possible. IF ono
can't have lobster and crabs, porgies. honn-
ders and butterfish are not to be clespscd.
One can, however, give festive air to
the menus by occasionally using some of
these more expensive foods and economizing
on another day (note the baked bean dinner
on Saturday,. Each must adapt the sugges
t'ons given to her own needs and purse.
brains and good cooking, variety and care
ful planning, can do much to reconcile thrift
and patriotism even in these davs of soar
ing prices.
And whenever you can afford to, "rescue

1NHE city of Buffalo has taken one step
ahead of the times by establishing
community drying kitchen. Located lust
opposite the city market, where it has ready
access to surplus vegetables and fruits the
Buffalo Thrift Kitchen teaches an object lesson
in food conservation to the whole city; likewise
it points the way to what may become city
institution throughout the country, as an ad-
junct to public markets and means of saving
the tremendous percentage of redeemable food
which, under present conditions, goes to waste
This kitchen has only few months experi
ence back of it, having opened late last Sep
tember, and only since February l has it
been operating with full equipment 1t began
too late for the summer fruit crops, so that
the output, as yet, has been mainly the harder
winter vegetables. The experiment started as
a Of saving the waste of the market
Great quantities of celery were being wasted in
the face of all the "save food" propaganda.
because no one knew what to do with it.
The market dealers were trimming off the out
side stalks and discarding them. By the mere
placing of baskets among the stalls several
bushels day were secured by the kitchen and
dried. The kitchen, however, taught its lesson
of thrift too well. The market men came, saw
product, tasted the soup made from it and
went back to sell their celery unstripped, or
to bunch the outside stalks and sell it as soup
celery.
The kitchen now buys its materials at whole
sale figures. Later, when the summer produce
is ready it plans to dry on shares for farmers
and individuals.
The Buffalo kitchen has been child of for
tune in having most of its equipment donated.
A vacant store opposite the market has been
given headquarters for the kitchen. The
large evaporator with which most of the
drying has been done was loaned by a local firm
which manufactures commercial dryers. The
cost Of the dryer is about 5000. 1t is not alto
gether perfect for drying, but it happened to
be the available instrument at hand more
satisfactory evaporator of the same type costs
$3.50.
In addition to this evaporator the same firm
of manufacturers loaned to the kitchen a va
cuum dryer, which costs 81 500, an additional
5000 being allowed for motor and boiler. This
dryer formerly had been used for drying
chemicals, so that it was an experiment as
to drying vegetables, and it has proven too
small in capacity to be practical for this pur-
pose A large dryer of the same type however,
is to be installed shortly, which will more than
quadruple the present drying output of the
kitchen.
In addition to the dryers, the principal equip
ment for drying consists Of
Slicing machines, four galvanized washing
trays and three tubs, two small home dryers,
three large kitchen tables, wire dipping bas-
kcts. vegetable scrapers, pairing knives, wooden
nadd1as kettles white granite trays and scales.
The whole cost of this equipment would not
be over 5000, the most expensive items being
the galvanized washing trays and tubs, costing
$50 (not an absolutely necessary item)
