HOUSEWIFE OF TODAY
KEEPS FOOD ACCOUNT
She is Checking Up Weights and
Measures of Products.
Decreased Buying Power Of Dollar
Makes Her Think and Avoid All
Kinds of Waste-Lessens Prices
in Many Ways.

The modern housewife is becoming
expert in buying. She is reading the
labels. in accordance with the sugres-
ton made by the United States de-
partlnent of agriculture, and checking
up the weights and measures OF the
food products she buys. she mas
learned when to buy in quantity ana
when in small amount, and when IL is
more economical to buy in bulk thah III
package. Many have compared the
cost of making bread at home ana Oh
buying 1t and are choosing the way
that is best for them.
The lessened buying power OF the
dollar has made her think ana aVoiu
all kinds OF waste. The family must
he kept well nourished, but the wite
and mother should not provide more
food than is needed. She must know
what kind of food will fill her market
basket to the best advantage. Along
with this knowledge is that OF no"
much of the family food should come
from each food group and how iar !"
is wise to save money by using more
food from the less expensive groups
The housewife of today is keepihS ii
food account and checks up her weekly
buying by the plan she has MADE.
If she wishes to try to lessen prices
for everybody here are some OF lhe
ways she is going at it: BY producing
food at home; by using local produc's ;
by choosing food that is plentitui ~,
the markets; by 1essening her use OF
such foods as are scarce by co-opera-
tive buying; and by using the parcei

Greens of all kinds. both wild or cul-
tivated, are well liked by most people
and are valuable food In the human
dietary. If more were eaten there
would be less need of resorting to the
doctor.
When the various kinds of greens
are young, tender and ut their best
some should be canned for use during
the winter. OF the wild green's the
dandelion is the most common. Among
the cultivated greens are Swiss chard.
kale, Chinese cabbage leaves, French
endive, cabbage sprouts. turnip tops.
young tender New Zealand spinach,
dandelion, young tender dasheen
sprouts. native mustard, Russian mus
tard. coIlards and tender rape leaves.
All possess iron and other needed min
eral substances, and are nearly as de-
iicious when canned as when fresh.
The following directions for canninf
green's are given by the United States

Strawberries. cherries or blackberries
may be used in the same proportion.
When one has plenty of pieplant ana
few berries this method is especially
recommended. as the pieplant Is usual

seems to be so largely the berries In

CLUB GIRLS TAUGHT
To PREPARE SUPPER
Each Member Is Assigned Certain
Part of the Meal.
Constructive Criticism Found to Be
Valuable in Making Each Repast
Little Bit Better Than the
Preceding One.

To make sure that the girls in the
home making clubs, supervised by the
United States department of agricui-
-ture and the Connecticut State Agri-
cultural college. are able to put to
practical use what they have learned
in the clubs about buying, cooking and
serving food. their leaders have organ
lied supper clubs"
These clubs meet twice mcnth nj
the local leaders home. At the hrst
meeting of the month a well-balanced
meal is planned with the help of the
leader. Each girl is assigned certain
part of the meal, for which she is re-
sponsible.
At the second meeting she brings the
material and prepares, cooks and
serves her part of the supper. Adults
are asked to these suppers. and the In
vitations are highly priced. The usual
menu consists of meat. potatoes. one
vegetable, hot bread. sometimes salad
dessert. and hot drink. So far the
average cost per person served has
been "a to 26 cents.
After the meal the club girls meet
in a group and discuss and criticize
the various articles on the menu ana
the serving. This constructive criti-
cism has been found to be very valu
able In making each supper little
better In every way than the preceding
one.
