LIVERY one of us can remember
the old nursery rhyme that used
to be childhood favorite about the
cat that ran away with the pudding
bag string. Most of us wouldn t
even miss our pudding bag string
these days, and its loss wouldn't be
the catastrophe it was once, for we
DO not own a pudding bag.
An English cook-and any one
who has visited in England knows
that every English housewife would
miss her pudding bag string if the
cat ran away with it-eives these
few directions: Scald the cloth we'll,
flour IL, then lay it in bowl TO
shape the pudding. Turn in the bat
ter, draw the cloth around it. leaving
room for it to swell. and tie firmly
with the string. Plunge into a pot
OF boiling water and keep it boiling
every minute.
Boiled Suet Pudding
The famous suet pudding Of Eng
land is rather simple dessert. TO
make it: chop four ounces of beef
suet. Add pound of flour sifted
with half teaspoonful of salt. Mix
TO paste with cold water, tic in the
cloth and boil three hours. Of
course, this pudding cries aloud for
nice tart sauce.
Plum duff and jam roly poles arc

@LOSEL1 resembling the white
meat of chicken with its crisp
and savory brown fat and a
delightful flavor all its own, pork is
perhaps one Of the best and most
popular Of winter meats. 1T is at its
best when served with tart spiced
apple sauce, Drowned or candied
sweet potatoes and either green peas
or creamed onions.
Pork possibly presents a greater
variety Of cuts and dishes than any
other meat and from the delicate
rashers of hroiled bacon down to the
delicious tenderloin, spare ribs"
and baked ham, they need no recon-
nerdation.
Many kinds of savory sausages,
head cheese and kindred delicacies,
some of which are made by the peo-
pies of European countries and
others which are of home manufac-
ture, owe their worth to pork. All
of them are excellent and may be
purchased at any good delicatessen
shop in quantities to suit the
kltchenetter' needs They are ideal
for an emergency luncheon or sup
per with brown bread, potato salad
and fragrant hot coffee.
Pork i'll Many Ways
In planning the coming weeks
menu pork has been introduced in
some form for the majority of meals.
This has been done so as TO give as
many suggestions for its use as pos
slble and not because an exclusive
pork diet is recommended.
Be very careful that The pork
served to your family is perfectly
fresh and thoroughly cooked, and if
rio roast is selected score the fat
over the top IN criss-cross fashion
with a sharp knife. This will allow
the edges Of the tiny squares to curl
back and cook to rich, crisp brown
The meat when cooked should be Of
snowy whiteness, without a suspi-
cion Of redness.
Another delicious roast is a crown
of pork, prepared in the same man
ner as ''crown of lamb This cut
from young pork is a most delicate
and tempting dish. Fill the center
with green peas and carrots and sur.
round the roast with spiced baked
apples, stuck with few whole
cloves.
In buying hams, either fresh or
smoked, those from the hindQuar-
ters, rather than from the shoulders,
are the best, and consequently high
est in price. Those from the shou-
der are, however. excellent. and sell
ing as they do at much lower price
should be selected when economy
must be considered.
