from veal than from any
other animal used for food; delicious

trate this point. The idea enter
tanned by many persons that veal
is extremely unwholesome owes it's
origin to two sources: Either the
animal was too young when killed
or the meat was not sufficiently

butcher will sell what is known as
'blue veal" and if the cook will
see that it is cooked with no trace of
"pinkness" when cut, it will be found
one of the most useful and palatable
of the spring and summer meats.
Asparagus is a universal favorite
and it should be so cooked that not a
particle of the bunch is wasted. AL
ways save the water in which it is
boiled and use it as the basis of a
soup or sauce to serve with the
vegetable. Nearly all cooks now re-
move the spurs from the stalks of
the vegetables, and although it is a
little trouble it will we'll repay the
housewife for her effort.

The Swedish loom, a reproduction

The cost of the loom is not prohibi-

wide, but would naturally take up
larger floor space.

A Square Yard of Space Needed
Our Only Fat Fruit

A MONG the fruits that enter into
the dietary of man the avocado
or alligator pear, takes an almost
unique place because of it's richness
in fats. A few fruits may furnish
q noticeable quota of real nutrients
IN the form of starch and particu-
larly sugar; thus, an ordinary sized
banana is rated at a food value Of
100 calories or more. But for the
most part the fruits that enter into
the ordinary regimen. however
palatable, wholesome and dieteti-
cally valuable they may be, can
scarcely be rated as significant
sources of energy. The part that
they play in nutrition must be esti-
mated from other standpoints.
Accordingly, an edible fruit that
may exhibit as much as 20 per cent
of fat in its makeup is worthy of
special consideration. 1t may prove,
for example, to become valued
adjuvant to the dietary of the da-
bette, from which the carbohydrate
content of many common fruits
unfortunately excludes them.

Weaving offers a remedy for the

which nothing seems to satisfy. In

An Antidote for Waste


The Colonial home knew neither
waste nor idIeness, and it laid the
true greatness Of the nation. The
rugs that covered the floors of our
ancestors were made from worn-out
clothing and bedcoverings. The
carpet loom would be scarcely
worth while to-day even though we
had the room, for rags cut from one
to two inches wide, according to
thickness Of the material, sewed
into strips and then wound into
balls, allowing two to two and a
half pounds to the square yard.
can be woven at a nominal cost
from so cents to 80 cents a yard
blind. The braided rug Of rags,
at any of the institutes for the
the crocheted and the hooked rug
cost in the art shops much moro
than the woven rug. They have
usually been made from new ma
terial, which naturally adds to
the cost, but they can be made of
old material equally as we'll. Old
cloth dresses or mems trousers, any
material, in fact, that can be cut
into fairly long strips, can be used.
A thrifty mother of three small BOYS
took their brown stockings that were
beyond further darns, cut them into
strips two inches wide, sewed them
mad then braided them into a won
derful rug to lay in front of a CEN
tury old mahogany bureau.
City and Country Looms
While it is not practical even to
think of carrying on weaving to anv

form of individual self-expression
that for the practical mind is most
gratifying. The revival of the hand
loom means more individuality in
woman's dress and in the decoration
Of the home. The type Of woman
who is willing to spend her spare
moments at the loom is going to
weave a piece Of material that she
knows she will look we'll in, for that
piece of cloth, crude or simple as
it may seem, is in reality a part of
her inner self.
"The Fruit of the Loom"
This little Swedish loom in the
corner Of the living room may be
"set up" to weave cotton or linen
sheets-which would have to be
pieced in the middle, as are those
that have been passed down from
our grandmothers-and the softest
Of blankets, which may be made
from carded and spun wool or with
a wool warp. Old wooden underwear
may be used by cutting the gar
ments in strips of one inch-if
very heavy less than that-and sew
ing the strips together as for
rag carpet. All sorts of draperies
