AN AlL-AROUNO SAVING

Thanks to the War, housewives have
been given some unforgettable lessons
in common sense. Minute saving and
penny saving have gained new signiti-
cance.
One vital economy which has inn
pressed Itself upon thousands OF prac-
teal women is quick breads-th2 new
and better way Of supplying the staff
Of life, always recognized It's more es-
sential than bullets.
While the pre-war methods which
50 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
a paste and baking into hard. gran
lite cake, the necessity Of using hak-
ing powder With substitute nours 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 a saving Of time
and when made of high-grade ingre-
dents are also of better quality and
mere economical.
The use of baking powder prevents
4 continuous loss of small percent
age Of -four 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 became in
terested In an unusual advertisement
for Calumet Baking Powder In which
II 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 leaveniBg
element worthy Of my time and trou-
Bile in baking. | laid aside my prcju-
diceS and was delighted to find the
problems which formerly worried me
are now so easy. and today seem al
most unreal. l am filled with new
zeal to cook since l gained the help
of this time-saying product"
Even though the world is again fol-
lowing peaceful pursuits, the purchase
power OF penny is much less than
II was a few years ago. Housewives
can only meet this unusual condition
by needing the lessons which the War
has taught them, including the tests
that have proven tho folly of Judging
values by outward appearances, such
rs the size of the package or looking
az quantity rather than quality, ctc.,
for example, 10-cent ean of Calu-
met VIII furnish more leavening than
the Big Can Of double IFS size of some
cheap mixture, manufactured by hap
hazard methodS.-A1Y
