Today one may purchase for few
cents any number Of kinds Of good
soup. II one has bit Of stock which
has been made Of leftover meat, bones
and gravy, add 1t to can or two Of
the commercial stock, with such sea-
soning as one likes and you will have
a different soup. A hot dish for the
first course or following the cocktail,
seems to be universally liked, for the
millions Of cans Of soup sold daily in
the markets are proof that it is pop
ular.
One may, with the addition Of
minced cooked vegetables, convert
canned soup into one that Is individ-
ual. A little rice, little asparagus,
few spoonfuls Of peas added to
bouillon or clear soups add to their
attractiveness as well as flavor and
nutriment.
Tomato soup is one of the canned
soups that has large repertoire as
a food. It may be converted into
delicious meat or fish sauce in turn
Of the hand. Poured over meat loaf
1t transforms it into delightful sur
prise. 1t may be added to the meat
when making q loaf with the egg or
cereal used as binding omitted. Part
OF the soup is saved to serve as a
sauce with the meat. More cayenne,
bit Of onion juice, or garlic, a graf
ing of nutmeg or of lemon peel, all
adds variety to the tomato sauce.
One Of the most delightful Of rare
bits is made with tomato and cheese.
Use the canned tomato soup instead
Of the fruit, adding beaten egg just
before 1t is poured over the toasted
bread or crackers.
Milk, cream and eggs may be added
to almost any canned soup, extending
its bulk and adding to its food value.
One might write a book on the ways
Of serving just tomato soup. But we

prepare the vegetables. One may add
any kind of small amounts Of leftover
vegetables at the same time.
Vegetable soup gives an excellent
flavor to hash. If you have been max

and the result will be most popular
