About Butter

p From the days when Duburah
brought forth butter in "lordly
dish" to this morning when John
and Mary asked for another piece
of bread and butter" butter has
beea looked upon as an important
food. Although it is doubtful wheth-
er Duburah was thinking about the
fat side of the vitamine contained In
butter fat, the mother of John and
Mary is very much occupied with that
same vitamine, for she knows that it
is prevention against diseases.
To return to the history of butter.
When early troops were roaming the
plains, those in charge of the COM
missary department were thinking up
new ways of churning the fat from
the milk of whatever quadrupeds
churns were developed slowly. and
the history of their development
makes an interesting subject in itself.
Butter can be made from the milk
sheep and even buffalo have from
time to time supplied this bread for
butter"
In the old days cream was obtained
by setting the milk aside for twenty
four to thirty-six hours. Then it was
skinned and placed in earthen jars.
BY this process the cream was kept
in the jars or crooks until thoroughly
"ripened,'' a process which is brought
about, as we know today. by the
Tactic acid bacteria This old
fashioned butter is delicious, but is
difficult to make owing to changing
atmospheric conditions. For example,
when the wrong variety of bacterial
invades the butter we have all
sorts of unpleasant f1avors.
In the modern creamery method
we find cream being separated from
the whole milk by machinery. The
cream is usually pasteurized and the
butter is started" by culture of
Tactic acid bacteria Churning comes
next, and our butter, salt or sweet,
as the case may be, emerges through
this and various subsequent proc
esses until we have what some one
has called the gold-headed cane OF
| life. bread and butter
Now as to the actual food value
of butter. We have already spoken
therein, and in addition to this we
| find, If it lives up to federal stand
ards, butter contains 80 per cent OF
milk fat 1t is impossible in a short

growing children.

When Seventeen-year-old Marie
Mattingly of Bardstown, KY, set out
to carve a career for herself she chose
the newspaper route and began Gov
ering" embassies and legations as So
ciety reporter for the Washington
Post. The quality of her work led
her steadily to the then unusual post
of a woman bureau chief and the
distinction of being the first woman
admitted to the press gallery Of the
Capitol.
Between travels and outdoor life
in search of health she has rendered
valiant service on behalf OF human
ity. while still climbing the literary
ladder to her present high post. She
organized the Marie Curie radium
committee and has been instrumental
in bringing Nine. Curie to this coun-
try and fostering her remarkable
work. She was also decorated for
the crowning work of her life to date,
and the one for which she has
neither spared her labor nor her
time, has been the initiating of the
better homes movement. Already it
has proved an important factor in
the educating of the American peo-
pie toward higher standards of home
life. and after less than two years its
incorporation as national eoucd-

Ny Neighbor Says:

Roasting in gas cooker
causes the meat to dry. Gas
causes a very dry heat. A sim
pie way to prevent this is to
place a common crockery cup
half full of water in a corner at
the bottom of the oven, and when
the water becomes heated the
steam will keep the air inside
quite moist, and you will find
when the meat Is done 1t will be
juicy.

gristly meat from the shank of beef.
Place it in baking dish with any

Cooking For Two
Frozen Dishes.

Since the days when father and the
boys had to labor perspiringly to turn
the old fashioned ice cream freezer, sci
ence of food preparation has advanced
considerably. Today frozen desserts
may be made very easily-we find on
the market all kinds of freezers.
Frozen desserts play very important
part in the dietary One should re-
member not to think of them as merely
a refreshing finish to a meal. but rather
as something which may be counted
upon to bring up food value of the dset
as a whole.
Ices that are frozen without being
stirred are mousse, parfait and biscuit
For mousse we have fruit juice, little
gelatin and whipped cream. Parfait
is made with a cooked custard, such as
chocolate, coffee or caramel. Biscuit is
made from an egg yolk custard.
The desserts that require freezer
are sherbet, frozen fruits and frappe.
Here are some attractive recipes for
preparing frozen dishes:
Delicious fig ice cream is made by
scalding a quart Of milk; add one and
three-fourths cups of sugar, few
grains of salt. and then stir in the
yolks of six eggs. Cook this custard
until a cutting will form on spoon
dipped in the mixture. Chill, and add
one cup of heavy cream and one and
One-hal1 cups Oh CnOppeO uTieu h6S,
which have been favored with two
tablespoons Of lemon juice. and freeze:
To make peach mousse mix a cup OF
mashed peach pulp with two thirds cup
Of powdered sugar and pinch OF salt.
Dissolve a teaspoon of gelatin In a
little cold water and add to the peach
mixture. Whip a cup of heavy cream
and combine with the fruit. Place in a
mold which has been dipped in cold
| water. Cover tightly and let stand
| for four hours in a mixture Of equal
narts of rock salt and crushed ice. The
flavor is improved by adding one-half
teaspoon of lemon juice. :.
For lemon sherbet mix one-half
| cup of lemon juice, grated rind of one
half lemon, one and three-iourtns
cups sugar. Add a quart of milk and
| freeze. This mixture calls for three
parts of ice to one Of salt.

After the policeman clown had done
his tricks and disappeared, into the ring
came strutting a big, tall clown with
high hat. why, that looks like little
Tommy Tumbler." cried one of the girls.
SILLY, his face kind Of looks like
Tom. but that's big, tall fellow, and
Tom is little" laughed the boy who sat
beside her
But the girl was right, for, you see.
Tom had put on a pair of stills and
trousers and fastened a pair of big
shoes to the end of the stills. Tom

they all laughed to see Toms little boy
