CARE OF coNvALEscENT IN
SUMMER

For those who are just recovering
from serious Illness the problem Of
food Is serious one. The patient.
though well on the road to recovery,
Is usually weakened by the rigors of
disease and the excessive heat Is wont
to sap his energy. Hence, the foods
that are consumed during this period
should be considered carefully as to
digestibility, food value, ease of as
similation. purity and sterility. These
are important In any food but espe.
cially SO when the consumer Is not
strong and healthy.
In most cases, the one who Is con-
valescing consumes milk In large
quantities. This food contains all Of
the elements that are essential to the
body. II milk is pure and germless.
1t is easily digested and assimilated.
Where the milk supply is uncertain
or the quality not of the best, evap-
GRATED milk should be employed. It Is
sterile; 1t Is just pure milk with about
sixty per cent Of the water removed
Its double richness may be modified,
If desired. by the addition Of water or
1t may be used just as 1t is, where
rich, creamy dishes are desired.
Many people make the mistake OF
confusing evaporated milk with con.
densed milk. They are not at all SINH
lar in appearance, composition or
taste. They cannot be used for the
same purposes; condensed milk Is u
combination of sugar and milk; evap.
GRATED milk has no added sugar, being
pure milk of double-rich quality and
food value.
Following are recipes of easily pre-
pared dishes and foods that are well
suited for the invalid and the con
valescent.
Loganberry Cream.
4 cup evaporated V cup loganberry
milk juice
Z cup water 2tbsp. lemon juice
Pinch salt
Put all ingredients in Mason fruit
jar and shake thoroughly. Chill and
serve In glasses filled u full Of Ice
chips. Raspberry, blackberry. and
cherry juice may be used instead Of
the loganberry.
Iced Cocoa.

Pinch salt V cup water $

Mix COCOA and sugar thoroughly and
add the v cup water and boil ,ver a

PRIZE WINNING PIGS

What is said to be the most profit
able litter of swine thus far entered
in the observation-disclosures contest
being conducted by the Maryland
Swine Growers Association belongs
to Charles Hines, a seyenteen-year-
old club member of Olney, Mont
gomery County.
The litter consists of nine purebred
Duroc Jersey pigs which were far
rowed this spring and brought along
SO successfully that at $50 days Of
age they tipped the scales at 1,612h
pounds. A month later at the age
of $50 days, the litter passed the ton
mark and weighed in at 2,02S
pounds.
The litter is of splendid breeding
and young Hines has used his knowl-
edge of swine to advantage in enter
ing the animals in show classes at
the Rockville and Timonium fairs.
At the Rockville Fair, he succeeded
in selecting from the litter pen OF.
three barrows which captured first
place. Two< boars from the litter
were awarded a third and fourth
place respectively while the four re-
naming animals, all sows, placed
first, sixth, seventh and ninth re-.
spectively. In addition the litter as
a whole captured the first prize in
the ton-litter class.
Premium money on the litter at
the Rockville Fair totaled $48 and
at Timonium amounted to sos. At
the present market price Of hogs the
litter is worth $294.06 but it is pos
sible that some of the animals could
be sold for breeding purposes at
prices considerably higher than the
market price Of 14A cents a pound.
Even at market prices, however,
young Hines figures that he could
dispose of the litter and clear about
S12O above feed costs.
The nine animals are the offspring
of a dam and sire owned by young
Hines and are the result of his,
breeding and rearing. He has had
the advice of County Agent w. c..
snarr, however, and has followed
the methods of swine production adj
vocated by the University of Mary
land Extension Service.

STRAIGHT TALKS
WITH AUNT EMMY.
ON "GoLD BONDS"

Before so TO the bank to ask A.
vice about investing the money mother
left me- | wish you would tell me
something more about bonds" said
Helen to Aunt Emmy. sAm right In
thinking that gold bonds are absolute
" safe? Are gold bonds what people
mean by gilt edge securities?"
"What child It Isl" laughed Aunt
Emmy. II can see that you do need
to learn something about bonds. The
term gold bond does not have any
thing to do with the term gilt edged
security The latter IL nothing more
than commonly used phrase that
means safe security. Companies
that Issue gold bonds usually agree to
redeem them IN United States gold
coin OF the weight and fineness Of the
gold coin issued by the United States
Treasury at the time the bonds are
put on the market This is done in
order to protect the bondholders from
the very remote possibility OF rad
zeal change in the value % United
States currency, such as, for example,
the changes in the values Of German
and other European currencies ras a
result Of the war. While such thing
Is unlikely to occur IN this country,
financiers always try to guard against
every possible trouble. Although q
bond, may be payable IN gold II, is I'M
necessary to demand payment IN actu-
al gold coin since our American money
Is on a gold basis anyhow and our
good old papar dollars have exactly
the same value as golden dollars.
Slut you want to bear In mind one
thing. Because you buy Q so-called
gold bend that does not mean that
the bond is secured by gold in any
way, or that It is stronger than any
other bond. The strength OF bond
lies simply and only in The ability
Of the company that issues It to pay
its debts. And OF course you should
consider the value Of the property
pledged or mortgaged to secure. the
bond. Il any property is given as Sc
curity.-

i. S. FARMERS FAIL
TO GET FAIR WAGE
Did Not Earn Just Return on
Capital Invested Last Year,
Survey Shows.

Farmers failed to earn fair re-
turn on the capital invested and a
fair wage last year, ALTHOUGH they
Jared better financially than in the
preceding year. the Department of
Agriculture declares in an analysis OF
the agricultural balance sheet.
On the total capital invested in agri-
culture the return for the year was
estimated at as per cent, compared
with 3.3 the year before. In round
figures the net income for the 192425
season, the department said, was
$2,7l2, 100000, compared with $1,992,-
100000 for 1924.
Return Is Al Per Cent.
This sum, however, did not go en-
tireEy to farmers, as they own only
79 per cent of the total capital and
pay interest on the balance. The re-
turn on the farmers unincumbered
capital for the year was estimated at
Al per cent, compared with 25 per
cent the preceding year, although they
had TO pay an interest rate on bor-
rowed capital of Ga per cent last year,
compared with 66 per cent the year
before.
Thus" the department concludes,
"as a combined return for the use Of
their capital and for their own man
ageriaI services, farmers received
around per cent less than was paid
solely for the use of other capital un-
der conditions not requiring the lead
ers 10 take any active part in pro-
duction"
The department estimated the cur
rent value of the total capital in
vested in agriculture last year at S59,-
154 900 600. compared with $50 ,54S,-
100000 for the preceding year, and
