the long row Of special packs Of

as good as new. We know, because
some thirty jars Of it were eaten last

Mixing Oils Again

The last announcement Of con-

shows that the temptation to mix
cottonseed oil with olive oil at pres
ent prices has proved too strong
Tor a number Of New Workers.
They shipped It into nearby states
at an extra profit. 1t is all right
for the housekeeper to mix these
herself and save money. For the
highly seasoned mayonnaises some
even prefer the smoothness and
creamy texture given by the cot.

in paying olive oil prices for it.

the motives Of the concern go, but
the fact remains that, as far az the
consumer was concerned, 1t did
raise the price two cents, whether 1t
was done for that purpose or not,
and It seems probable that tho sugar

How to Use Baked Beans

ines The cooking In soft water
/ breaks down the cell walls and the
protein is more easily attacked by
the digestive juices.
To explain the method Of baking
beans seems rather trite and un-
necessary, but there are few points
that are often overlooked by the
best of cooks, and while the result
ing baked beans may be most de-
lightful as far as edibility Is con-
cerned. the stomach has unnecessary
work to do, which may prove pain
full.
It Is quite important that the
beans be soaked at least twelve
hours IN four to six times their
weight in water, in order that they
may absorb their original water con-
tent They should then be boiled
for about thirty minutes in the
I water they have been soaked In, as
It contains soma mineral material

adding the SODA use only about one
quarter teaspoonful to one quart Of
water. Too much soda gives bitter
taste and hinders digestion. Never
add salt until just before putting
the bean pot in the oven, because
8 dilute salt solution extracts more
of the protein than fresh water
And this retention Of the protein
is increased by heating before add
ing salt. The beans should bake for
four to six hours in slow oven
$3.50 to 300 degrees).
No one need tire OF baked beans
when they can be 80 successfully
disguised that an epicure can scarce
ly tell what they are. Have the
famous New England dish on Satur-
day, but make q sufficient quantity
so that the following recipes can be
used during the week. And, Incl
dentslly, a cold bean sandwich, sea-
soned with paprika and lemon juice
and salt, is delicious. however mum
dane it may sound.
New-York tribune., 1920-02-22

Halibut Is almost as far down
the line as eggs when it enters
the lists to compete with beans
as a cheap protein bearer. You
get in a pound of this fish IS per
cent Of protein at a cost of 35
cents,qas compared with 7 per
cent more in beans for less than
one-half the price. Again four
people would be served with the
fish as compared with the party
of fourteen who could sit down
to a pound Of beans when
cooked.
The Misleading
Calorie

calories to a pound of plain
baked beans without sauce, and
these cans exceeded this re-
quirement. There has been

Some people think that the pres
ent law carries sufficient authority
to prosecute these fragrant cases I'm
peace times), even though techni-
callties are met by stating the trua
weight on the box. The law declares
that food is nisbranded If "the
package or its label shall bear any
statement, design or device regard
irg the ingredients con-
tanned therein, which statement. de.
sign or device shall be false or mis-
leading in any particular" Now,
when the whole size of the box is
misleading, is this not part Of the
design of the package? A plain
mortal would say "Yes," but twelve
jurors or judge might say NO."
and so an exhibit Of these packages
has been staged in Washington and
special bin may be introduced to
cover this point
In any case tho government has
spent thousands Of dollars to got
the correct net weight on package
foods. 1t is up to the buyers to see
that they make intelligent use Of
this information. At recent meet
ing Of the Housekeepers' Alliance IN
Washington one Of the women said
that sometimes when she saw work
fall through, cooperative buying Of
forts fail and careless buying done,
she felt that the women were the
"wishbone" of the nation rather than
it's backbone.

Helping the
Honest Merchant

Not only this, but when the whole
saler goes to place his wares with
the retailer the latter will turn down
the modest small box that fits it's
contents and stock up on the large
box that Is half filed! "Sharp prac-
tees" like this always mean hard
ship for the honest merchant. and
unless the women who buy are clever
and alert enough not to be hood
winked thsy play the game of the
dishonest man.
Now, you may say, "What do I
caro- Il I got the amount specified
on the labsl7" But sometimes the
price fits the size Of the box rather
than the weight named! And unless
you know how many ounces Of CHINA
mon you ought to get for 10 cents
you may not get your moneys worth.
We want to be fair to all con-
cerned. It IL true that spices can
not be weighed bya machine into a

over; they must "shake down" a
