Food Prices Affected by Season. the Port Aunorys Report

f THE housekeeper would remen1-
Der that seasons Of the year affect
prices of almost all the fresh
foods used, such as meat, fish, poul-
try and the rarer vegetables, and
could be familiar with the seasons
during which the supply comes from
nearby sources, it would help to con-
troll the household budget.
Familiarity with the seasons with
regard to dressed poultry would GER
tainly be helpful both as to prices
and quality. From January to May,
inclusive, receipts Of dressed poul-
try include principally old hens and
old ROSTERS, whereas from January
to September broilers, spring chick
ems and ducks are added to the list.
In October, hens, spring and roast
ing chickens are available, and in
November and December spring
chickens, roasting chickens, turkeys
and geese.
The egg demands of New York
City are huge and steady, showing
that New Workers. eat on an average
1,154,s04 eggs a day; nearly every
body gets one day at this rate.
More states combine to satisfy our
appetite for eggs than contribute
to any other one source Of supply.
Illinois sends one-fifth Of the whole
supply; Iowa and Indiana each only
half as many as the leader. while
six other states and Canada, Den-
mark, China, Argentina and Aus
tralia all chip in to swell the total.
Of course the three spring months
show the flush of production. Cold
storage alone can meet the demand
in the winter months when produc-
ton lags behind consumption. But
storage hold-ups here rarely exceed
three months supply, since many are
shipped from storage in Chicago,
nearer the source of greatest supply.
An open winter increases production
and the demand for cold storage

however, most suitable for top crust
pies, as deep dish fruit pie or meat
pies. For average use it should be
rolled as thin as possible, since it
rises and puffs. Pastry making is
not usually in the campers line, ex-
cept for longtime vacations, but
this product will carry over to the
winter home.
Under chemical tests there two
self rising fiours proved their worth
as we'll as under the cooking tests.
The pancake flour showed 1876 per
cent protein, 2 per cent fat and the
equivalent of z or per cent baking
powder. The pastry -four is
of softer wheat, with 9 per cent
protein and 09 per cent fat, and
about the same baking powder
equivalent. The baking powder con-
tent is higher than the average
household usage, but it is not ex-
cessive when the question CT trans

la. Beat or shake we'll and
serve.
In general, the powdered egg is
most successful when it is used for
baking or combined with other in
gradients for puddings. We made it
show it's worth in the more difficult
custard, using more sugar and fla
voring than usual, and it passed the
examination. Nutmeg is the chosen
favoring in such case. If omelets
and scrambled eggs are longed for,
serve them with bacon or a we'll
seasoned sauce or vegetable.
AS the whole egg is dehydrated, it
is, Of course, not possible to separate
the white for beating to stiff froth.
So such cooking as demands THE
Gghtness Of the egg white is not
practical. In baking it is we'll to be
little more generous with the bak-
ing powder than you would be with
fresh eggs.
Real eggs In powdered form do
away with breakage and spoilage,
whether at camp or at home, and
are worth their weight in any pack.
Milk, Condensed and
Evaporated for Many Uses
T WO canned milks that have just
l. proved their quality in the In
stitute laboratories are seasonable
for camping as we'll IS convenient
at home. A special feature is the
condensed milk in a glass jar Of the
turnbler style III ounca size). This
avoids the necessity of transferring
the milk from the usual tin to a
suitable glass container either for
serving or storing after opening. An
economy of milk, time and dish
washing here! And the price, even
in glass, is reasonable about %
cents q jar.
This product is rich in butter fat,
containing about 10 per cent, which
is per cent more than the standard
requires, and its creamy color and
uncooked flavor make it an excellent
table product. The Institute shares
the consensus of opinion Of pedia.
trists that milk containing any no.
table amount Of cane sugar is not a
normal food for the healthy infant,
although it may be of use in unusual
or abnormal cases. Nature puts no
cane sugar at all in either mothers
milk or cows milk. And Nature is
known to be singularly canny in
providing the best of growing food
for the young. This fact, however,
detracts nothing from the value and
convenience Of rich, sweetened

and conscientious mothers to know
that spinach, lettuce and onions lead
all other succulent vegetables (more
than 5000 carloads each), with
cabbage and tomatoes coming next.
The vitamine is triumphant at the
very ports entry; apparently there
is a good control Of this dietetic fac
tor at source.
More than 1000, 900, 900 pounds of
fresh meats are consumed annually
IN the port district.
Indications are that there is a de-
mand for a very varied dietary in
the port district. Back of all these
statistics is the implied work which
goes with producing these quanti-
ties-the acreage for growing the
vegetables and fruits, the regulation
Of receipts and the supplies and
prices, the amount Of human effort
which it takes to produce these mil
lions of pounds of food.
Familiarity with such facts gives
the housekeeper better control of
her expenditures as the purchasing
agent Of the household.

The "egg" is then ready for use, but
it can wait while you collect your
other materials.
By chemical analysis we found
that the product contains only z per
cent water (fresh eggs have over
73 per cent?. Protein is Dc per
cent, fat 42.5 per cent and total
minerals 40 per cent, showing that
it is genuine whole dried egg. A
four and a half ounce package
equals a dozen eggs and sells for
80 cents.
A hint given us by bachelor hus-
band produced this "dehydrated bev-
erage," which should prove popular
when no ice or fresh ingredients are
at hand: One table spoonful pow
dered eggs, one tablespoonful sugar,
four tablespoonfuls powdered milk,
one teaspoonful cocoa, one cupful
cold water, sprinkle Of salt and
one-eighth Of a teaspoonful of vanil.

and apples lead in popularity in the
Port of New York. Some II 900 car

approaches these three in amount
consumed, grapes coming next with
fewer than 5000 carloads; canta-
loupes with 1000, peaches $500,
while watermelons, grapefruit, straw
berries and pears bring up the
rear, with some 1000 carloads each.

Some prefer to carry the -four by

Other experienced campers explain
that camping equipment is limited,

The two self~rising Aours listed
fill such q place beautifully, and
have the added advantage that they
do not need to be mixed beforehand
just purchased and packed. What

On baking produces cakes that are

Camp Pan Cakes
To make them even better add
one egg to two cupfuls Of flour, de-
creasing the amount Of water by
about two tablespoonfuls in order
to obtain the same consistency Of
the above batter. In the Institute
we found that more salt was an
Improvement - one-fourth teaspoon
full to two cupfuls -four. AS the
flour has no shortening, the cakes
baked on a creased griddle were
better than those on a dry one-a

condensed milk for table and adult
use.
The Evaporated Product
The unsweetened evaporated milk
was used in the Institute in making
cocoa and white sauce, and to re
place cream without dilution) in a
cheese entree. No one but the cook
suspected the substitution-indeed,
the evaporated milk cocoa was pre-
ferred to that made with fresh milk,
as having more body. One hint in
using evaporated milks is to season
the foods more highly than with
fresh milk, particularly sailing them
well, and to cook the seasonings in
thoroughly. Then we defy the Sc
verest critic to detect any "evapor-
ated" taste. Usually the milk is di-
luted with an equal amount of water
for cooking purposes.
These Rogers tested rnilks are a
notable addition to the available
supply Of such foods, the glass con
tainer and uncooked taste and high
fat content being outstanding good
features.
A Waterless Soup

of high nutritive value, showing,
roughly, Is per cent protein, Sc per

into soup with nearly twelve times
