II one listens to the conversation
of the men folks when some of them
get together these days, one would
surely imagine that the only thing
upon the earth, heaven or under
hearth the earth, was logs, poles,
lumber, slabs, wood or posts, any
way, something in the timber line
as the trip to the hills is the thing
that is uppermost in their minds,
and almost any morning, if one
watches the hill at the Frank Just
place one can see a general exodus
of wagons, teams, and men on their
way to the hills. The major portion
are going after wood to burn in or
der to escape paying what everyone
considers an outrageous price for
coal, and if the present rate of wood
getting continues, the coal men are
going to have forceful reminder
that they have overstepped the
bounds of good business in their
boosting of prices.

VEGETABLES ARE
CHEAP FOR FOOD

The old adage, IAN apple day
keeps the doctor away" might quite
as well have read "a carrot or an
onion day." and probably the result
would be about the same as regards
reducing the doctors bill. Vegetables
of all kinds are necessary in the Diet
but particularly valuable are those
available in the spring and summer,
say specialists of the United States
Department Of Agriculture.
Value of Vegetables in Diet.
Without going into definite figures
1t may be stated that the food value
of vegetables, such as beans, peas, po-
tatoes, sweet corn, beats and carrots,
Is very high. When considered from
the standpoint of the food value of
the crop that may be produced on a
given area of land, beans, beets and
carrots are ahead of almost any 9TH
er garden crop. One-tenth acre plant
ed entirely to carrots will yield about
ton, and in energy this would be
equal to about 80 pounds of average
beef. One-tenth acre of beets would
also yield about q ton and be equal to
$50 pounds of average beef. One-tenth
acre of lima beans would yield about
12O pounds of dry beans, equal to
about 22O pounds of beef.
AS sources of mineral matter and
proteins needed by the body, vege-
tables are much more valuable than

CARE OF HEATER IN SUMMER
Avoid Danger of Rust by Cleaning in
Spring and Storing in Thoroughly
Dry Place.

There is danger of rust when a
stove or furnace stands unused for
some time. Smokepipes should be
taken down in the spring, cleaned and
stored in a dry place. The doors
should be left open to keep the In
terror dry. A lump Of unslaked lime

SAVE FAT OBTAINED
IN PREPARING MEAT
0bviates Necessity of Buying
Butter and Lard.
Outline of OId-Fashioned Method OF
Clarifying Fats So That 1t May
Be Used in Kitchen--lce Chest
Is Quite Handy.

Care used in saving and caring for
all fat obtained from cooking meat in
the home will save many dollar
which otherwise would have to be
spent for butter, lard or other cooking
fats. Fats derived from the cooking
of bacon, ham, chicken, beef and
other meats, should be kept, each in
its own receptacle, to be used for diff
ferent purposes.
Household specialists in the United
States Department of Agriculture say
an old-fashioned method of clarifying
fat from the soup kettle, or from
cooked meats, so that it may be used
in the kitchen, is to add the cold fat
to liberal quantity of cold water,
then heat slowly and let cook for an
hour or more. When cold, the cake of
fat is removed and the lower portion,
which will contain the small particles
Of meat, should be scraped away and
the white, clean fat saved. 1t the

When an ice chest is used fat in

cient for long time, it should be kept

PEACHES MAKE FINE BUTTER
Found Quite Useful by Housekeeper
In Spring When Jams and Jeliies
Are Running Low.

Springtime often finds the house
keepers supply of jelly and jams in
depleted condition. When this is the
case, peach butter made from canned
and dried peaches may well come to
the aid.
The following recipe recommended
by the United States Department OF
Agriculture food specialists is de-
licious:
To each four pounds of dried
peaches use two quarts of canned
peaches. Soak the dried peaches in
water several hours and cook until
tender. Add the canned peaches and
rub the pulp through a colander or
wire sieve. Stir 21a pounds of sugar
into this pulp and cook slowly, STIR
ring often, for two hours, or until OF
the right thickness. Pack while hot
and sterilize like peach butter.

Vegetables Furnish Considerable Por-
ton of Needed Mineral Substances
and Vitamines In Diet, Beside Bulk.

many people realize Also they sup
ply roughage, which is believed to
keep the body in good working order.
In the course Of nature, human beings
as well as some animals seem to have
so developed that they need certain
amount of roughage, which is best
supplied by the coarser vegetable
foods. During recent years there has
been a growing tendency to reduce
the roughage in cereals and some 9TH
er foods and, in order to offset this,
an extra effort should be made to sup
ply plenty of vegetables and fruits. In
addition, fresh vegetables are among
the best sources of what, for lack Of
a better name, have been called vita
mines.
Nobody has ever been able to stand
a vitamine up by itself, or group of
them by themselves, so that we could
look at them, but it is known that
they are present just the same, be-
cause of the action that they have up
on the human body
Eat kiore Vegetables.
Too much cannot be said in favor
of larger proportion of vegetables
in the diet of the American people.
The English are considered nation
of meat eaters, but 1t has been shown
that Americans eat more meat per
capita than do the English. A GER
tain amount of meat in the diet is
highly desirable, but this should al
ways be balanced by a sufficient sup
ply of vegetables.
One of the reasons that many peo-
pie have to great extent cut vege-
tables from their diet is that they
have been unable to get fresh vege-
tables and do not relish stale ones.
The individual home vegetable garden
planted either in the back yard, or a
convenient piece of land, not only
solves the problem of supplying the
family with vegetables at low cost
and in abundance, but guarantees
their freshness.

Cotton Suitings Can Be Done
Quite Nicely at Home.

Cotton and linen suits can be
pressed and Numbered at home. Dust
can generally be shaken from them,
for they do not hold it as wool and silk
do. Brushing tends to rub the dirt
