FOOD AND THRIFT IN THE HOME

cereals should be kept dry and clean.
Smoked hams, strips of bacon and
| home-dried fruits and vegetables are
best when kept in bags and hung IN
clean, cool, dry place. Jellies, jams and

should be kept in cool place, prefer
ably on shelves, so that they can be

this. paste a strip of paper around the

tween can and cover for the purpose
of excluding air. Pasteboard boxes
should also be sealed in this way.
Parafin containers should be sealed by
applying melted paraft1n with prusn

Storing in the Cellar.
THE Use Of whitewash and unSlacked
lime in the cellar helps to keep down
germs and undesirable odors. Since the
bottom of the cellar is the coolest part,
foods often keep best If placed on the
floor. provided it is clean and dry. II
the floor is damp and earthly, layer OF
clean bricks may be arranged under the
food.
The foods that do not spoil easily are
good to store in the cellar. These are
eggs, fruits, such as apples, oranges and
lemons: potatoes, onions, turnips. car
rotS. cooked meats and cooked, sailed
and smoked fish. Keep dry and cool,
but not cold. Fruits and vegetables
stored in boxes. barrels and bins should
be sorted frequently to remove decayed
ones, which might infect others.
The practice of wrapping organes. APP
pies and other fruits, and sometimes
choice vegetables, in separate papers is
often worth following in the home; The
wrappers prevent the fruits from bruiS-
ing each other and also keep the skins
from touching and so offering favor
able place for the growth of molds.
Potatoes are entitled to special con-
sideration for storage. The purpose Is
to protect them from great changes OF
temperature and from light. Even a
small amount of light will change the
food value of potatoes. There should
be enough moisture to keep the potatoes
from whiting, but not enough to cause
moisture to gather on the surface. Bar
rels, boxes or bins in which potatoes are
stored may be ventilated by boring holes
in the sides and bottoms.
In the case of apples the chief eS-
sential is that the fruit be kept in a
cool, dry place and so stored as to be in
no danger of absorbing odorS from
vegetables stored nearby.

Marshmallows With Apples.

Make a thin sirup with two cupfuls
of sugar and one cupful of water. Add
the grated rind of one lemon and one
teaspoonful of green vegetable coloring.
Put in six cored and peeled apples,
cook slowly, turning from time to time
so that the apples will cook evenly and
color evenly. When cooked soft, but
still firm, remove from the fire and put
into Sherbet glasses. Put "a pecan
halves in the sirup and when cooked
fill the center of the apples with them.
Now put one dozen marShmallowS in
the sirup and when the sirup Is real
thick and begins to jell, pour it over the
apples and put in the refrigerator to
chill. When ready to serve, top with
whipped cream beaten stiff with a
tablespoon of sugar added by degrees
and beaten in. A few bits of finely
minced citron may be stuck in the
center of each apple If the flavor is
liked

Markets Stimulated by Visitors
to Capital

Market activities have been stimu-
lated by the influx of tourists and other
visitors to the city. And, besides, 1t is
Spring. The interval between Winter
and the hot days Of Summer has an
especial significance. Although we eat
less as the days become warmer, there
Is very little falling off in food con-
sumption. Spring days lure one to the
outdoors. where appetites are whetted
and a motor trip increases ones desire
to eat more than usual.
From now on many families will dine
away from home on Sundays and half
holidays. This, of course, affects the
business of the food dealers, particularly
if the normal consumers leave the city
In many instances housewives are
discovering an advantage in dining out
1t may be that they choose to eat at
hotels or restaurants. thus saving the
labor necessary for the preparation of
large meals on the day when the entire
family is at home. More and more the
custom is becoming popular to take
guests out to meals.
The loss in home purchases however,
is made up by heavier buying on the
part of reStaurateurS. There are those,
though, who. after dining in public
places through the week, prefer home
meals over the week end, and the ones
charged with the responsibility OF pre-
pairing them must accept the task.
The buyer will find many suggestions
in the stores and markets at present
and comparatively little change in
prices. Fruits are plentiful. Among
them are grapefruit at 10 cents apiece,
bananas, 25 to 80 cents dozen; large
Florida oranges, so cents a dozen: ap-
Piles, to 10 cents each; South Amer
lean grapes, rs cents to 81 pound;
California grapes, Is to 40 cents a
pound strawberries, IS to IS cents a
box, and Argentine melons, 81 apiece.

The plane carried $50 gallons IF
gasoline, an earlier plan OF carrying

the additional weight making the

said it would take him three hours
TO re1uel and then would immedi-
ately take off again for the return
trip. The planes engine Is capable
Of 165 miles an hour.
Making the flight alone means he
will have TO let the plane fly itself

he pumps fuel from the main tank

from which it will feed the motor
by gravity.
The takeoff of the plane was per-
