Roach Nuisance Can Be
Reduced by Cleanliness

Roaches will not frequent rooms un-
less they find some valuable food ma
terial, says the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture. If such mate
rails can be kept from the living
rooms md offices, or scrupulous care
is exercised, to see that no such ma
terial is placed in drawers where it can
leave an attractive odor or fragments
of food, the roach nuisance can be
restricted. Thorough-going cleanli-
ness will go long way toward pre-
venting serious annoyance.
The most efficient remedies for the
control of reaches are powders, par
ticularly sodium fluorjd, liberal dust
ing of which about the premises will
furnish a sufficient means for the
elimination of the pest. The sodium
fuorid should be blown into the
crevices with dust gun or blower.
The immediate effect Is to cause these
insects to come out of their retreats
and rush about more or less blindly,
showing unmistakable signs of dis
comfort, to be followed in few hours
by their death.

When Used as Vegetable
CeIeriac Is Best Liked

Celeriac is known also as 'knot eel
cry" or "turnip-rooted celery" the
United States Department of Agrlcul-
ture states. The roots, which are
about the size of a white turnip, and
not the stalks are eaten. They are
more often used as a vegetable than
as a salad. Prepare the celeriac by
pairing and then cutting it into thin,
narrow slices or dice. Put into cold
water. Drain from this water and
drop into boiling water and boil thirty
minutes. Drain and rinse with cold
water Make white sauce with one
tablespoonful of butter, one tablespoon
full of flour, one-half teaspoonful of
salt, and one cupful of milk. When
smooth and well cooked add the
celeriac.
