Sweet Savory Drippings
Good Butter Substitute

It is almost universally conceded
that cooked vegetables require the
addition of fat to be at their best
and that no fat seems SO suitable
as butter for seasoning them, if on
the texture of the dish and the fla
vor rests the decision. Many fami-
lies, however, are practicing thrift in
the use of foods which they pur-
chase and are varying the vegetable
seasoning. One of the best fats for
seasoning a vegetable dish is sweet
sayory drippings.
Not all meats supply fats that are
saVory in the sense in which the word
is employed here, but the fats from
fried SauSageS ham, bacon and po:k
and from roast pork, veal and chick
en-, may be employed alone or in COM
bination for this purpose. Some fats
have a flavor which comes from the
seasoning as in sausage, from the
smoke as in ham and bacon, and from
the brown material as in roast meats,
which is agreeable to the palate. The
fats SKINNED from the water in
the fat SKINNED from the gravies
Of most roast meats may be clarified
and employed also i ma preparation
of vegetables for the table. Great
care must be taken that all of these
fats are sweet and clean and that
the temperature, at which they are
fried out shall not be so high as to
impair the flavor Burned or scorch-
ed fat is not only unpleasing in fla
vor, but is frequent cause of indi-
geStion.
When rendering trimmings of ia !,
meat, the home economics kitchen Of
the department of agriculture recon-,
mends that small onion Or shallot
(uncut), a few leaves of summer
savory, and a teaspoon of salt and
pepper be added to make a savory
dripping of pleasant flavor. This
amount of seasoning is enough for
half pint of fat. Drippings should
be kept covered in a cool. dry place.

Advice to the Trapper
What to Do in Summer

When the trapping season ends,
every trapper should consider it his
own duty to protect the fur bearing
animals in his neighborhood, to re-
frain from trapping during the mat
! ing season, and to help increase the
supply of animals in every way he
can.
The first thing to do is to go over
your trap line carefully, and be sure
| that you do not leave any open sets
| lying around all summer. Take in
your traps and wash them in strong
I've water, and then hang them ia O
dry, shady place, where you can find
them conveniently when the new
trapping season opens in fall.
1t is not enough that you should
cease from your own trapping once
! the season is over; go out among all
your friends and neighbors and pre-
vail upon them to join in the work
of fur conservation. Get everyone
to agree to stop trapping out of sea-
son.
AS the summer goes by, pay an &C.
fur-bearers in your section and care
| fully preserve all dens, holes, houses
and runaways. Keep the natural
surroundings undisturbed so that
there will be nothing to frighten
away any of the animals.
The fur crop in your section really
belongs to you ana IS a part of your
personal property. So it is wise and
profitable to keep in close touch with
it during the summer when there is
no trapping. In this way you will
protect and increase your own
wealth.

OUR HOUSEHOLD
CONDUCTED BY LIZZIE OTHOMAS

for I believe that I shall get the
other this month of May. 1t only
needs fourteen dollars and seventy
cents to make our board for two
children---clothes it may be used for
we are leaving that to Col. Haskell
better place to apply it. Some one
said, How about the sufferers in
this country?' My experience and
observation has taught me that the
people who give freely to foreign
work of any Christian character are
the people who respond to calls for
help at home.
Several have sent portion of
their tithing. 1t is astonishing how
far we can stretch ninety cents, or
the Lords portion. You will notice
that five little. boys sent a nickel
each-did you know or have you
thought that it feeds a child almost
two days? When we bring it down
to nickels and dimes we, see, what a
reader sent as much as the little
boys. All of us should remember
that lad with lunch, perhaps his
mother fixed it for him, furnished
the basis of our Savior feeding the
multitude When l was a child my
written about a little child in Ire
land. That country suffered from
famines in it's early history, and the
story went that a child begged for
just three grains of corn.
"On1y three grains of corn, mother,
Only three grains of corn,
It will keep the little life l have
Till the coming of the morn"
That is all that l remember
of the speech, as we called it
then, but many times it has prompt
ed me to do right then the thing that
would help some other. And I want
you to never forget that God GER
tain1y gives us a blessing for even
the least that we do for His suffer-
ing ones.

Dear Mrs. Thomas:

A Letter for All Of us

Mrs. J. D. Thomas, Tuscumbia, Ala.
Dear Mrs. Thomas-The Easter
season of 1920 has just been cele-
brated and we have been thinking
anew of Him who came that men
might have Life.
How wonderful to be able to be-
stow the gift of life. 1t is within
that is what our relief organization
has been trying to do in the Near
East. Your generous contribution,
for which official receipt is enclosed,
has helped enable us to not only re-
lieve what was probably the most
tress in all history, but also to grant
new lease on life to a brave and
worthy people.
1t is too soon to announce that
the danger in Armenia is passed. In
deed, the situation remains extremely
critical. However, from Colonel Has
kell, who directs the relief distribu-
the encouraging word that our organ
ization is successfully meeting the
situation. We know, therefore, that
if the American people will continue
to support us and the steady flow
of relief is not interrupted, the great
refugee population can be saved.
You understand, of course, that
until pO1lIlCdl Slo1pl1lZdIIOA ID
fected and it is safe for the Armeni-
ans to go back to their farms, they
are dependent upon us for the means
of life. Furthermore, once the har-
vest relieves the food situation, there
will remain the problem of rehabili-
tation and the caring for one-quarter
of a million orphan children.
Let us again thank you for your
good will and generous cooperation.
Sincerely yours,
G. V. V1CKREY.
The receipt referred to reads:

Full Dress

A patch on the seat of ones trousers
no longer
Is, commonly speaking, the badge
of distress,
OF poverty: nay! and to put it some
stronger
Well call it the hall mark of new
tangled dress;
The newfangIed dress in "unmention-
ed" (sic) garments
Encasing the neither limbs of the
male sex.
So, get you to patches! no more
they're disbarments
OF public approval, a critic COM
pick.
And while on the ethics Of wearing
apparel
Let's briefly make mention of
those for the feet.
Though curses, in undertone, whisper
the quarrel
Tween us and shoe pirates, the
styles obsolete
OF going barefooted in circles of
culture,
There's no law against hiking in
carpet slips.
So, pay no attention to fashion, that
vulture,
When thusly foot shod on your
avenue trips.
And hats. never worry about your old
dicer,
Your skinner, fedora-they're all
new in style.
For service I ask you, say, what can
be nicer
Than grandpop's old plug hat, elon-
gated tile?
And there you are, neighbour, with
all of your dollars
Safe snugged in your weasel, and
easy of head.
Believe me, with these-and rever-

Of paper you need but a necktie
