Both vegetables and fruits supply
the body with iron, lime and other
mineral matter, and some protein and
body fuel as well as mild acids. They
are particularly necessary in the diet
of children, says the United States De-
partment Of Agriculture. They should
be served at least once a day, as they
help to keep the bowels in good con-
dition. Vegetables may be used as
flavoring for soups and stews, may be
added to milk or meat stews, or
served with meat gravy. If gravy is
used, do not have it too fat nor make
it with scorched fat. .......,sge

Bro,Dn Ste,D of Beef Is
Liked Best by Family

Not every one knows how to make
a good stew, and yet, when well sea-
soned and carefully cooked, stew
may prove to be one Of the meat
dishes the family likes best. A good
brown stew is started by browning
the pieces before covering them with
water. The meat Is simmered, never
boiled, and cooked until 1t is tender.
Here are the full directions, from the
bureau of home economics:

iron skillet in some of the fat from
the steak, then place 1t in a covered
saucepan, add the water, and simmer
until tender. Add the onion and salt.
Measure the liquid, and to each cup

and stored for use as needed.

A Cleveland housewife who was en-

from out of the city, wanted to have
dinner that would linger In their

could be nicer, she thought, than
roast sucking pig?
Accordingly the little pig was sent
home from the butchers, unwrapped
and laid on the kitchen table, Where
her small son caught sight OF 1t and
burst into tears.

Feeding the Canary

The food requirements Of canaries
are simple. Canary seed to which
have been added rape seed and little
hemp is staple diet that persons who
keep only a few birds usually pur-
chase ready mixed. Canary seed alone
does not furnish balanced food, but
forms a good combination with hemp
and summer rape. Much Of the rape
seed in prepared seed sold in cartons
is of species that even wild birds do
not eat, as 1t is pungent and bitter in
flavor, but all relish the mild taste of
true summer rape.
