Save and Clarity Meat Fat for Frying
and Pastry
An old fashioned method of clarifying fat
from the soup kettle or from cooked meats
such as bacon, ham, chicken. beef, sausage,
and other sources, Is recommended by the
United States Department Of Agriculture.
Melt the fat with at least an equal volume
of water, and heat for a short time at a
moderate temperature, stirring the mixture
occasionally. When cold, remove the cake
of fat and scrape off any small particles
OF meat and skin that adhere to the under
side.
Some fats are better favored than others
for use in pastry or cake making, but all
clearly rendered fats may be used In fry
Ing. III the flavor or color or both are not
satisfactory at the first rendering, the pro-
cess may be repeated several times. An
other method, often recommended, is to-
cook a number of slices of raw potato in
the boiling fat. The addition of a small I'M
cut onion, a few leaves of summer saw
DRY and thyme, salt and pepper, when rem
dering meat drippings, makes a savory fat
useful for gravies. Sausage fat liz excellent
for frying meats which have less flavor
of their own, as veal outlet or rabbit.
Fat In small quantities may be easily
kept sweet In the ice box for cooking pur-
poses. II lard is rendered at home In large
quantities to last a long time 1t should be
kept covered In tins or earthen Jars, In q
cool. dry place.

enough to enjoy cooked cereals. In my
opinion the old Scotch mother who brought
up her stalwart sons on oatmeal and milk
knew what she was doing. Oatmeal is rich
In iron and calcium, 1t contains vitamin
B and is good for roughage as well. With
whole milk 1t makes quite a complete food
and is delicious as well.
All of the cooked cereals are starchy and
develop the finest flavor with long cooking.

night, to come out hot and luscious each
morning. Directions on the packages of
cereals are good to follow, however, this
general rule may be made, that the water
should be sailed and boiling vigorously be-
fore the cereal la added. Whole milk served
on cereal provides more vitamins and min
erals than does cream.
Beverage for the childre3 should be milk,
or chocolate, but the milk Is better. Choco-
late Is constipating If the milk Is boiled.
However, IL 1t is made over hot water 1t is
all right.
Milk for the old folks, too, is healthful.
The hearty breakfast may include hot
cakes or waffles with syrup, bacon and
eggs, or ham and perhaps potatoes.

waffles and pan cakes, drop me a card.

Traffic Jams
By DIR. FRANK CRANE

HyHOMAS A. EDISON recently was interviewed upon
his idea of what the cities of the future would be like
The thing that will bring about most of the big
changes in Cities he said will be attempts to solve the
traffic problem
The cities of today built for horses and pedestrians
Narrow streets and sidewalks took care Of all the slow
moving traffic of the day.
In less than twenty-five years the automobile has changed
the whole problem Of city building
Automobiles take people greater speed from place
to place Movement accelerated in all directions When
there teup its effect spreads to great distances
The first effort solving the problem of caring for the
new traffic conditions must be directed 1.-THE neck of the
bottle
The contents Of bottle says Mr. Edison ''are so
much The capacity Of that bottles neck is SO much ANY
mathematician who worth his salt tell you how rapidly
those contents flow in OUT
In large city there certain arteries of traffic
that lead to and from busy sections The traffic into
them and there most of the serious tieups occur.
Increasing the capacity of such arteries or building
others to take of part of the traffic. the first step
In many cities single bridge spanning river is the
neck Of the bottle through which the traffic Of the whole
city has to Thus the movement Of traffic all over the
city is slowed up because the neck of the bottle is equal
to the contents that must be poured out.
Two other which traffic will influence the future
cities are suggested by the inventor.
Traffic lights will be synchronized large blocks of
machines for considerable distances at time without
being stopped; and in time kinds Of streets will be
recognized There will be express streets and accom-
mediation" streets
The former will take of the fast traffic and the latter
of the slow traffic.
