of season. A soggy, poorly favored,
somewhat greasy mixture of po-
tatoes with a slight smattering of
stringy corned beef is not corned
beef hash. 1t is parody on the
same. When properly proportioned,
hot, well favored and Drowned there
is nothing better than this hash.
And it is one Of the few made mixed
meat dishes that men will greet with
enthusiasm, in competition with the
expensive chops, steaks and roasts.
So if the man of the house shows
up unexpectedly for luncheon, or if
the morning proves dark and chilly
and you have planned a light, meat
less breakfast, take down this six
ounce can of corned beef hash (it
costs only 25 cents to put it on your
pantry shelf, moisten slightly with
New-York tribune., 1920-09-12

milk and warm it up in the oven.
Then make it into three "nests,"
place in each a poached egg with
dash of paprika on the yolk and you
have meal for three. Or brown
the hash in the skillet and serve it
Gas is" for two at a cost of 1875
cents plate. Think what this
would cost you in a restaurant.
Chilled sliced tomatoes, with plain
French dressing and buttered gra-
ham bread toast go with the hash to
perfection for luncheon. If the day
is cool and a heavy meal is wanted
apple pie and coffee are warranted
to please the men folk. If not, serve
ginger ale and loganberry juice in
proportion Of 2 to /, and let the
salad serve for dessert.
This hash can stand analysis. The

chemists figures showed that it con-
tanned q large proportion of meat
as compared with potato, having II
per cent fat, 10 per cent protein
and 60 per cent of moisture, so that
of the 40 per cent of solids there is
about twice as much meat as po-
tato. Sometimes the proportion is
the other way. The flavor of this
dish far exceeds expectations-hash
in the can did not seem promising
at first blush, but it proved a most
happy surprise. And for young
kitchenetters who cannot assemble a
hash without much ado, and whose
menu is circumscribed by small ice
box-if any-and an electric grill or
gas plate this can offers a real home
dish. with no effort at all.

while humble, checked, dish towels.
Working Day Gut One-Fourth
Let us reason together for q mo-
ment. In a family Of four or gi&
does it not take about two hours a
day on an average to wash dishes
and dry them? {Three-quarters Of
an hour for dinner and breakfast
and half an hour for luncheon.)
Then, by the same token, one xuman
in each household spends approx
mately 800 hours q year washing
dishes, or 100 working days OF eight
hours each, one-quarter Of the work
ing time Of the year. 1t doesn't
seem possible, but it is. And what
could 100000 women do with this
much more freedom? Even If they
only "sat in the sun" it would be- q
good thing for posteritys and the
modern woman is apt to do some
thing rather interesting and COM
structive and helpful with her free
dom and spare time these days. Very
frequently she becomes a wage
Garner on the side and helps ont the
family exchequer and tastes the
joys Of economic freedom as an avo-
cation, housekeeping still being her
profession.
Why wash dishes one-fourth Of
your time If you might be earning
money at more congenial work and
using the proceeds to enrich your
family life? We maintain that it
is the height of domesticity not TO
wash dishes when for an initiation
fee of $40 to $3.50 and wages Of
SO cents month you not merely hire
servant, but buy a willing slave to
to do the work for you?

but the final one, with load Of 6fty-
three pieces, is perhaps the most con-
vincing. The following dishes were
placed in the washer: Eight soiled
dinner plates (some with dried egg,
some with corned beef hash and some
with salad dressing and grease), Ave
small plates, six after-dinner coffee
cups, two large coffee cups and their
saucers; four tumblers and one pint
and one quart milk bottle, badly
soiled with milk, as well as one fry
ing pan in which the corned beef
hash had been cooked. These were
only fairly we'll scraped--as a casual

not after the painstaking style Of
our grandmothers, who regarded
such matters as an end rather than
means! To these were added two

meal overbalanced with starch,
heavy and lacking in the vitalizing
elements and the mineral salts.
AS with any savory food, a pi-
quaint drink is needed, and a ginger
ale, with lemon or orange juice, or
a punch of one-quarter Of lemon or
orange, one-third loganberry juice,
and the rest crushed ice and water,
to the glass is very good. No sugar
is needed when you use loganberry

An unusual salad, that is easy to
make, as all gelatine dishes are,
and would go we'll with macaroni
menu, is the ginger ale salad, made
in this way:
Soften one-half package of gran
ulated gelatine in one-half cup Of
cold water for about ten minutes.
Dissolve in one cup Of boiling water,
add one and one-half cups of ginger
ale, one-half cup Of sugar and the
juice Of one lemon. Place in q

one-half cup Of pineapple in small
pieces and one-fourth Of o cup Of

ined uphold the Italians con-
Ia tention that their national dish
is both bread and meat. For with
10 per cent of moisture there is fur
nished IA per cent of protein (the
tissue-building ingredient Of meat), i,
and this is goodly protein record
for a fine hard wheat, the average
being about IL per cent and the
highest 16. With this there is IA
per cent Of starch, and you have only
to add the fat to have a perfect ra-
ton. This is the reason that cheese
has such an affinity for macaroni.
They round out each others career
perfectly. The cheese supplements
the protein supply Of the macaroni,
furnishes an abundance Of butter
fat, and the macaroni provides the
starch.
Its Special Virtues
For this reason macaroni is meat
extender, and il you have little
leftover veal, lamb, beef or chicken

A College Bred Ginger Ale

Owing to high sugar content and
strong favor loganberry stands di-
luton with two or three parts Of
water and 30 is not SO expensive as
it sounds at Is cents for four fluid
ounces, as this amount would make
two large glasses when iced and
properly diluted. There is some
thing about this sweet, heavily fla
vored product that calls out for
ginger ale-they are good mixers.
The ginger ale discussed this
week (Harvard brandy was most en-
Enthusiastically reported on by the
tasters and their opinion was upheld
by the chemist. No capsicum (red
pepper) was found, the characteris-
tic pungency Of ginger was clearly
defined, and all agreed that the
flavor was also fruity and tart. The
analysis showed nearly 8 per cent
of sugar; good carbondioxide con-
tent, to give sparkle, and III per
cent Of acidity-all bearing out the
tasters' opinions and making this
brand an excellent one to mix with
the loganberry Juice for a we'll fla
vored fruit punch.
Loganberry for Flavoring
To go back to the loganberry
juice, or syrup, there are many ways
to use it other than in beverages.
In ice creams and sherbets it gives
a distinctive and rare flavor, and in
pudding sauces and gelatines it may
make you forget the absence Of
sherry. AS a fiavoring for frost
ings it can be used the same as
orange and lemon juice. II Is just
the relief the bland banana needs

Bread and Meat in the Macaroni Box

from the cheese and tomato dishes

With such a dish a bit of the
ready cooked meats is acceptable.
The approved meat loaf served cold
or slightly broiled with sauted mac
aroni, plain or with the tomato
sauce, again gives balance, since it
adds IL per cent of protein and 21

T\HE home dishwasher is not
nearly SO prevalent as the
- washing machine and the
vacuum cleaner, and still dishwash-
ing is the most unpleasant and the
most chronic of the housekeeper's
burdens. You clean or wash clothes
once or twice a week at the most.
You wash dishes three times a day,
and at times when you want to do
something else-you cannot regulate
Il. Unless, indeed, you have enough
dishes to scrape and stack and
wash them once a day (preferably in
the morning, when both flesh and
spirit are strong), dismissing them
from your mind when dressed for
the evening.
A Wise Dodging of Drudgery
Drudgery may be transformed by
executive ability into q very Incl
dental thing. There is no virtue in
psinstakingly putting ones hands
into dishwater three times q day
Tor forcing servant toy if there is
q better way to get the dishes clean.
Now, some home tasks do lose by be-
ing Jumped and executed by machin-
cry. Mothering children is a piece
Of handwork; institutional efforts
and "job lot" treatment wont an
swer. Keeping the home fires burn
Ing is piece Of heartwork that
cannot be sublet. But washing
dishes is the job above all others
that should be done just as quickly
as possible-there is no point in pro-
longing it. And the less time spent
washing dishes the more time there

as contrasted with the housekeep-
ing routine.

Mix Loganberry Juice
And Ginger Ale

THE loganberry is the child of a
blackberry bush and a rasp-
berry plant that grew side by side
in Santa Clara, Calif.-so say some.
Others maintain that it is a va
riety of the trailing blackberry
that is native to the Pacific Coast.
Be that as it may, the fact remains
that the loganberry has made q
judicious selection of the good points
of both fruits and has a most dis
tinctive raspberry flavor. 1t is,
however, very acid, and too tender
to ship we'll, so we know it here
mostly as loganberry juice.
There are number of brands on

it the same as rice. Four ounces of
each of the macaronis under test
were put into four quarts Of salted,
rapidly boiling water (you need the
large bulk of water to prevent stick
ing and keep the mass in motion)
1t took thirty minutes to cook the
spaghetti and twenty-five for the
macaroni. These products should be
cooked not only until tender, but
until there is no raw starchy taste.
Place in q sieve and draw cold wa
ter through it to make the pipes
firm and dry and reheat with what
ever sauce is to be used.
Note that the four ounces Of spa
ghetti increased to sixteen when
cooked and the macaroni to twelve

Tray, Tank and Motor
The rectangular tray is shown
raised for inspection Of its con-
tents in the photograph taken in
the Institute laboratory. 1t has in
the center series Of concentric gal
vanized steel wire rings for the
smaller dishes, space to right and
left for the larger ones and the
two holders in opposite corners for
the silver.
This tray is easily let down into
the tank by the two large handles
at either end. The tank is Is
inches deep, lined with tin-plated
sheet copper and entirely open and
free from distractions. IN the bot
tom of the tank is an 18-inch conf
csl depression in which the double
bladed dasher, II inches long, re-
wolves. This inverted cone is a
inches deep and through it's apex
passes the gear shaft, which is con-
nected by means Of a flexible COUP
ling with the one-fourth horsepower
horizontal Ohio induction motor.
The motor is ventilated, keeps
cool and makes but little noise when
working. Of how many human
dishwashers can this be said? The
gear ratio is five to one, and the
motor makes 1850 revolutions a
minute, thus revolving the dasher
$50 times minute. The whole
driving mechanism is mounted on
cast-iron supports bolted to the
frame, and every bit Of gearing and
all moving parts are inclosed.
In front of the shaft, in the in
verted cone, is separate opening
for the drain, which is provided
with sliding arc valve in the out
let. This valve is easily operated
from the front by means of handle
which lifts and gives a full, free
flow of water. Permanent connec-
