IN ALL-AROUMl SAVING

Thanks TO the War, housewives have
OeeE given some unforgetJabls lessons
IN common sense. Minute saving and
penny saving have gained new signif-
canoe.
One vital economy which has i'm
pressed itself upon thousands of prac-
teal women is quick breads-the new
and better way Of supplying the staff
Of life, always recognized as more es-
sential than bullets.
While the pre-war methods which
so frequently suggested the use of
yeast were far ahead of the pre-hiS-
toric practices of soaking grain in wa
ter until softened, then making into
paste and baking into a hard, gran
itic cake, the necessity OF using bak-
Ing powder with substitute flours in
the various war recipes has Anticipated
the old, slow, cumbersome methods
which for centuries have handicapped
cooks, without sacrificing taste, tex
ture or technique.
Quick breads mean q saving of time
and when made Of high-grade ingre-
dicnts are also of better quality and
more economical
The use of baking powder prevents
continuous loss of a small percent
age of flour from which there is no
escape when yeast is used.
One of my friends writes Of her ex-
periences and how she was won over
TO the new way as follows:
Through my desire to Save Food
and Help Win the War l became in
terested in an unusual advertisement
for Calumet Baking Powder In which
It was claimed that dough left over
from the evening meal could be placed
in the refrigerator and used for break
fast biscuits with gratifying results.
EARLY training had taught me to
consider yeast as the only leavening
element worthy Of my time and trou-
BILE in baking. laid aside my preju-
dices and was delighted to find the
problems which formerly worried me
are now so easy, and today seem al
most unreal. 1 am filled with new
zeal to cook since I gained the help
of this time-saving product"
Even though the world is again fol-
lowing peaceful pursuits, the purchase
power of a penny is much less than
1t was a few years ago. Housewives
can only meet this unusual condition
by needing the lessons which the Wal
has taught them, including the tests
that have proven the folly Of judging
values by outward appearances. such
as the size of the package or looking
at quantity rather than quality etc.
for example-a 10-cent can of Calu
met will furnish more leavening than
