URGENT
NEED FOR MORE HOMES

Washington, Sept. 26.-The Federal
Reserve Board recognizes "the urgent
need for more houses for dwellings,
and business purposes" Governor
Harding said in letter to a lumber
company which was made public by
the treasury tonight. Realizing the
construction work now underway is
not nearly great enough to supply
requirements. he added. the board has
been careful not to place any restric-
tions of credit to the building indus
try.
"Therc can be no question that the
production and distribution of the
basic necessaries Of life, such as food.
fuel and clothing, are essential" Mr..
Harding said, "and it is obvious that
shelter is also fundamental neces-
sity"

necessary. Frying doughnuts in fat
that is not hot enough, or rolling and
cutting them so that they are too
thick to cook through in a short time,
or failure on the part of the cook to
Judge when they are done, or any
other cause that keeps them in the fat
too long, tends to make them greasy.
Testing the temperature Of the fat
with thermometer is the best method
The Manning times. [volume] (Manning, Clarendon County, S.C.) 1884-current, 1920-09-29

in frying doughnuts. Other method,
though sometimes successful, are un-
certain. A temperature of 1875 c.,
265 F., has been found satisfactory.
Doughnuts rolled about Ia inch thick
can usually be fried in 3 minutes at
this temperature if they are turned
to make them brown evenly; or they
may be fried in 1-2 minutes if forced
under the surface Of the fat during
frying.
The Manning times. [volume] (Manning, Clarendon County, S.C.) 1884-current, 1920-09-29

If you are fond of doughnuts, but
find that those you make at home be-
come soaked with fat while frying,
the following suggestions may be of
help. They are the result of a long
series of experiments in the absorp-
tion Of fat by fried batters and doughs
carried on in the Experimental Kitch-
en- Of the United States Department
of Agriculture.
A rich dough always absorbs moro
fa. in frying than palmer mixture.
Unless you wish your doughnuts to be
excessively rich, do not be too lavish
with butter, sugar, and eggs. The
following recipe makes doughnuts
which, if properly fried, are not so ex-
cessively rich as to be menace to
digestion.
Plain Doughnuts.
1 cup sugar.
1 tablespoon butter.
2 eggs.
cup milk.
IA cups flour
tablespoons baking powder Qevel
measurement.)
1 teaspoon salt.
teaspoon cinnamon.
1-2 teaspoon nutmeg.
A very soft dough absorbs more fat
than sitter mixture, was another
fact found through these experiments
Too much flour, however, makes a
doughnut that is not so light and
fluffy as is desirable. She addition OF
hot riced potatoes to the mixture
makes a doughnut that is light and
fluffy, but as the same time does not
absorb much fat. Doughnuts made
by this recipe are delicious whcr
fresh, but also keep we'll.

Soap should be used very carefully, if

The best thing for steady use IS Null

pure and greaseless), and is better than
anything else you can use.
