Have Fish Dishes Moro Often

There seems to be prejudice
against fsh--that is. served frequently,
and this, too, without apparent reason,
says the Seattle Sun. 1t is usually rel.
ished once a week; why not oftener?
Some housekeepers claim they buy
fish on Friday only because they feel
sure of getting 1t fresh then, but II
they would create daily demand for
1t the fish would be sold to them fresh
every day. Not that daily diet of
fish is to be recommended, but IL the
home mother can induce her family to
eat sea food three times or even twice
a week she would find a decrease in
her butchers and egg mans bills.
OF course, II one kind of fish Is fire.
uuently served in the same way the
family Is sure to tire of 1t, but with
such variety to choose from and so
many different ways of cooking, there
should be no such monotony. The
| smoked kinds of fish could take the
place of eggs for breakfast. Finnan
haddie is delicious either broiled or
steamed in milk, and fish weighing
about two pounds can be bought In
the market for a quarter.
Every woman knows the possibili-
ties of dried Goldfish as breakfast
dish, but dinner dish OF this fish Is
not as we'll known as 1t should be.
You take thick piece weighing
from one to two pounds and soak one
day and one night in cold water; then
put on in cold water and simmer for
two or three hours. It must not boil.
Next you fry two good sized onions
in butter until light brown. Add
can of strained tomatoes and cook for
10 minutes. Take the fish from the
water and put in with the tomatoes.
Place at the back of the stove for half
an hour, then serve.
Fish dishes suitable for luncheon are
curried, scalloped and creamed. Cold,
leftover fish, also oysters, are cooked
In various ways, and there are also
clam bouillon and salmon loaf.
A fish curry is delicious. You fry
one tablespoonful of butter and add
one small teaspoonful of curry powder.
You pour over this stock made from
fishbones, about one cup and half Of
milk or cream. Then you rub together
a tablespoonful each of flour and but
ter and stir into the hot mixture. When
smooth you add to it about one pound
of any cold. faxed fish. Gently sim.
mer for few minutes; then serve.
Creamed fish is we'll known, but II
little lemon juice is added at the
last moment it will be found to give
zest. Scalloped fish, too, is fairly fa-
miliar dish, but it can be made more
tasty if the white sauce is seasoned
with dash of mustard and paprika,
as we'll as salt. For desserts one could
make a creamy rice pudding without
eggs.
Young cooks must bear in mind the
success of fish dish depends quite a
good deal upon the way it is served.
The sauce must be smooth, tasty and
creamy and the garnishing of parsley
and lemon arranged to tempt the pal
ate.

Business Forecast
Strikes Hamper Industry-Protest
Against High Cost of Living
Becomes More General
Coal Situation Acute.
business Feature service)

Despite the settlement, or partial
settlement. of certain strikes, like
those affecting Boston street railway
men and Chicago stockyards employ
ees, labor unrest and recent walkouts
continue to handicap production.
While increased output is the present
outstanding need, it seems attainable
only through complete realignment of
capital and labor. The marine strike
even threatened to involve Great
Lakes seamen. Rioting occurred at
Argo, ILL.,, where the Corn Products
company's huge plant is located.
The steel industry is menaced by
the outcome of a strike vote to be
taken by the unions, which quite
probably will end in general demand
for the eight-hour day, right of col
lective bargaining, and other conces-
sions. The steel industry has long
withstOod the unions onslaught and
it can hardly be expected to accede
without protest or resistance. Mean
time the Outcry against high living
costs and rising prices, and charges
Of fragrant protiteering, become more
general and heartfelt. The govern
ment may soon be pressed to follow
institute an inquiry looking toward re-
medal measures.
The coal situation is receiving much
publicity and, while the case may be
Overdrawn. very real grounds exist for
the contention that rush of orders
next fall will meet pitifully made
quate supply. This holds true of
anthracite. When demand fell off
last winter, production dwindled and
miners sought employment elsewhere.
Now they cannot be persuaded to re-
turn. Many have emigrated to ELL
rope. A possible car shortage may
further complicate the problem. The
most direct avenue of escape seems
to lie in placing orders now.
Should the Mexican trouble de-
velop into anything like invasion, it
would restrain business activity. Ne
vertheless the stock market shows
symptoms Of another advance and the
public remain confident.

Tho Preserve Closet :

The condition and location of the
preserve closet has much to do with
success in canning and preserving.
The housekeeper may labor for many
hours, adhering strictly to all the rules
OF preserving, and at the end Of the
season have an array of jars to her
credit and later in the year wake up
to the fact that her work has gone
for nothing because she did not know
how to look seter her preserve closet.
The usual cupboard given up to pre-
serves consists of number of deep
shelves set into the wall OF the cellar
and fitted with a door to keep out the
dust and sunlight. The position of
the shelves is not always considered
as carefully chosen as it ought to be
and only too often the preserve cup
board will be found placed too close
to the furnace instead of being just
as far from 1t as possible. Sometimes
it is placed in direct line with an east
or south window and its door will In
this case be but poor protection from
the hot rays of the sun. Again, 1t may
be that in building the house this par
tfcular cupboard Is set close to the
wall Of saltwater cistern where the
stagnant water may give off foul odors.
The shelves of preserve closet
should be just wide enough to hold
comfortably one row Of quart jars, that
is, from to inches. II the shelves
are wider and a second or third row
be added 1t is impossible to reach the
back row without moving the row In
front. It is a well known rule that
cannot be too strongly emphasized that
preserves should be moved just al
little as possible after the covers have
been adjusted or tightened for the last
time. The cupboard itself should be
kept as cool and dark as possible. If
too warm, the fruits will spoil. Light
spoils all fruit, and especially toma.
toes, in which 1t causes the formation
Of citric acid, which no amount OF
sugar will sweeten.
If the cupboard be placed so that It
faces north or west wall, 1t will be
possible to maintain low degree Of
temperature, without the use Of ice.
Placing as far as possible from the
windows and providing with close
fitting door will do much to exclude
the light. Unless the cupboard Is very
dark the jare should be wrapped in
brown wrapping paper as soon as cold.

''The Little Brown Church in the

famous because one day man wrote
song about it.

No place is so dear to my childhood
AS the little brown church in the

How sweet on clear, Sabbath morn

To list to the clear ringing bell;
Its tones SO sweetly are calling,
Oh, come to the church in the
vale."

always with deep sense of appre-
citation. 1t has recalled memories OF
little church somewhere which was
