JUST BEANS
Nv KATHERINE NIENABER.


One of Wisconsins bumper crops
this fall was the navy bean crop. Inc
farmers thought by planting acres OF
these white beans they would be help
ing feed thes soldiers. Since there IS
no longer this need, the farmers now
have on hand something like lo,SO6,-
400 pounds of beans, or 263,44O push
els. The great problem now is what
to do in order to use these beans up.
Our carly New Englander ancestors
were very fond of beans. Each WASH
day, when the top of the stove served
the purpose of heating the water to
wash the clothes for the New England
household. the oven baked the beans
Thus the New England housewife not
only economical in fuel on this day,
but served her family the delicious
Boston baked BEANS" of which we
hear so much.
Thus each week on this day the New
EnglnnderS are served their favOrite
dish
This early custom of serving baked
beans still remains in almost all our
homes. Since her childhood the farm
er'S wife has been accustomed to see
beans, either baked or boiled. Thus
she. too, serves her family these dishes
once or twice II month. But feeding
the family beans once or twice a
month will not use up the large
amount of beans which are now stand
ing stored in sacks.
Instead of serving beans boiled or
baked. the housewife should try Some
new recipes. In this way her family
would not tire so quickly of them.
Then, too, by having various ways of
preparing beans. the housewife can
serve them oftener than twice month
and consequently help use up the
many bushels.
Beans, when properly cooked, form
a very nutritious dish. The statement
that one hears very often that they
are the poor mans beef" is not with
out some foundation, because they can
take the place of meat in a meal now
and then.
Many attractive, nutritious and APP
petizing dishes can be prepared with
beans at very low cost. There are
many delicious soups made from them.
Some have for their foundation meat
stock, and then the beans are added

farmer market his surplus dairy cat
tie.
From the middle of the summer of
1917 until the first Of the present year
more than $50 carloads of dairy COWS,
valued cOnservatively at $4,000, were
sent to other states, according to the
records at the College Of Agriculture.
And will the market continue to be
so good? The answer of the men who
are looking ahead is that it will. One
reason is, that the Wisconsin dairy
COWS are making good in new homes.
From Virginia to Idaho, every South
ern state, as we'll as Kansas, Missouri,
Minnesota, Illinois and Colorado, come
reports that the Wisconsin"
COW is giving satisfaction.
The South will continue to call for
the dairy COW, because the tick has
been eradicated to the extent that
dairying will be more profitable, the
boil weevil demands crop rotation,
and this pushes dairying into the sy5-
TEN of farming. Then, too, the soil is
crying for the fertility that dairying
can add.
In the West has come the realization,
according to the farmer buyers, that
less wheat growing and more dairying
will make farming more profitable.
Within Wisconsin alone, the demand
for dairy cattle is increasing. 1t IS
only a matter of years until the cut
over lands of Wisconsin, like the home
steads of the West, will exist only in
fiction and in memories. With the
clearing of these lands will come the
need of dairying, because dairy farm
ing is well adapted to the soils and
climate of upper Wisconsin.
The great reason why the COW is on
the world stage to stay is because she
furnishes man with the best of all
foods-milk. AS long as men have
homes, and eat, as long as women pre-
pare meals and as long as children are
fed, there will be an urgent demand
for milk. For milk has been shown in
many experiments to be the most near
ly perfect food.

The Wisconsin dairy COW is making
pilgrimages to other states every day.
She is living up to the old tradition
that the cow follows man wherever he
IgOeS. Just as she came with our Pill
grim fOrefatherS across the Atlantic
and trOd behind the covered wagon to
the forest and prairie, she is moving
from Wisconsin by railroad to all parts
of the nation.
Wisconsin is the great dairy state
The luXuriant pastures, the abund-
ance OF clear water and the climate
have aided man in developing dairying
Ito the high state that it has reached.
And now. with the need for more cows
in other parts Of the country, has come
the demand for the surplus COWS of
Wisconsin to make a pilgrimage 80
other states.
True, there has always been a mar
ket for Wisconsin dairy cows with
farmers in all parts Of the Union, but
never so much as today. The up-tO-
date farmer from other states is COM
ing to Wisconsin to see for himself,
and select only the animals he wishes.
When the farmers in Wisconsin were
urged as war measure to sell their
COWS to farmers, that the hungry
world could have as much of the
dairy products as possible for food,
they began to realize that they hal
not paid enough attention to market
ing At the same time the farmers
in other states began to wonder just
how to get the kind of COWS they want
ed.
1t was not long until they decided to
come to Wisconsin and to go directly
to the farm to see the COWS and pur
chase the animals they desired. Thus
a direct market between the Out-Of-
state and the Wisconsin farmer was
established.
Several agencies are cooperating
with the farmers in helping them get to-
gether The Wisconsin College of Ag-
riculture, the Wisconsin Live Stock
Breeders association and the state
veterinarian have been aiding the

The youthful and chic suit shown
here will interest those who are look
ing for novelty. Taking advantage of
several privileges offered by spring
styles, it has assembled straight lines,
flaring sleeves, crisscross tucks and
rows of buttons in a charming model
made Of beige-colored, smooth-faced
cloth. Except for diagonal, slit peck
cts, set in at each side, the skirt is
quite plain, bearing out the elegance
which the designer had in mind and
executed so well. The coat has slash
ed seams forming five panels, two at
the front, one at each side and one at
the back. Each front panel is dec
grated with row of buttons, and the
side panels have beautifully crow-bar
tucks as finish at the bottom.

to this. Others have a cream fOunda-
ton, and then the bean pulp is added
to it,
Mrs. Nellie KedZie Jones of the Uni
verSity of Wisconsin extension divi-
sion has given three of her original
bean recipes which she considers very
good.
Yankee Baked Beans.
Pick over and soak overnight one
quart of beans. In the morning pour
off the water, add cold water to cover
we'll and simmer gently until the beans
begin to soften or until the outer skin
on some of the beans begins to burst.
Drain off the water and place Il me-
dium-siZed onion cut into quarters into
a deep dish and pour the beans on top
of it. Take half pound of fat salt
pork, score the rind into small squares
and bury it deep into the beans, so
just the rind shows at the top. Mix
an even tablespoonful of salt, two ia
bleSpOonfulS of molaSses and two ia
blespoonfuls of sugar. and mix with
beans. Cover tightly and bake six to
eight hours. Then take off cover and
brown the beans and pork. This can
be varied by adding to it one to two
cupfuls of canned tomatoes when the
cover is taken off.
Bean Chicken.
Take cold baked beans and run
through a sieve or mash them fine.
Spread out about one-half inch thick.
Make a good, well-SeaSoned bread
dressing such as is made for stuffing
chicken, and spread through center
of beans; fold up two sides to cover
the dressing entirely and shape it as
near as possible like chicken. Bake
20 to 30 minutes, or just long enough
to heat through and brown outside
Cut in thick slices, so each portion
shall have dressing in middle and
baked beans entirely around it. Serve
hot.
Soup From Cold Baked Beans.
Two cupfuls cold baked beans.
One quart water.
Two medium-sized onions, sliced
thinly.
One cupful canned tomatoes.
Boil all together slowly for five min
utes. Then add two tablespoonfuls
flour rubbed up with two tablespoonfuls
butter. Let boil one minute Add one
quart of milk, salt and pepper to
taste. Serve hot
The addition of color to a bean dish
adds to its attractiveneSS, besides
stimulating the appetite. Such a dish
where color is brought out is in the
bean croquette recipe.
