Homemakers Column
By Miss Margaret Kirby Burtis
Home Demonstration Agent

The housekeeper who is very hard
pressed counts literally every pint
and pound, as we'll as every penny
that goes into the family meals. She
probably plans her main dish, not
just for today, but for each of the
next several days. The money goes
further when she figures it out that
way-down to the number of pounds
of potatoes, tomatoes, beans, greens,
and other vegetables, fruits, meats,
milk, bread, and so on, to see the
family through the week. But if you
have not been planning as closely as
that, you may find it hard to work
into your list all the foods that are
needed to keep the family we'll and
fit. This is usually hardest to do
when it comes to vegetables. AS a
guide for this purpose, the Bureau of
Home Economics of the U. S. Depart
meint of Agriculture has figured out
a low-cost vegetable budget. If the
family includes father, mother, and
three children under fourteen years of
age, the bureau says you need at
least the following quantities of these
different kinds of vegetables for a
week: Is pounds of potatoes, pounds
of tomatoes, 7 pounds of leafy green
or yellow vegetables, pounds of
driend beans, peas, peanuts, or pea
nut butter, 312 pounds of other vege-
tables. That is enough vegetables to
balance the cereals and meat and SUI
gar and fats you will need, says the
bureau, although more vegetables
would be better. This budget will pro-
vide, for the family of five, potatoes
or sweet potatoes every day, greens,
tomatoes, dried beans or peas each,
several times week, with other vege-
tables now and then.
The list provides pounds of leafy
or other green vegetables, or yellow
vegetables, and some one of these is
intended for every other day at least.
Raw cabbage is counted next to to-
matoes for vitamin C.; and that sug-
gests cabbage salad or cold slaw as
good ways to use some of your cab
bage. But panned cabbage, and five
minute creamed cabbage are other in
viting possibilities-always being sure
to use the greenest leaves, and cook
them very short time. Turnip
greens, or collards, or spinach, or
kale, carrots or yellow squash, or yell
low turnips, snap beans, or green peas,
Canned for this time of year,, are
other items for this part of the vege-
table list.
Potatoes, greens, tomatoes, and
dried beans or peas are the regulars
in the low-cost food schedule because
of their unusual food values and the
many ways they can be used. Plenty
of these vegetables are needed to
make sure of minerals and vitamins
enough to balance the starches, pro-
teins, and fats and sugars of the other
foods on your weekly list. Your fam
lily is better off with more minerals
and vitamins and your table is more
attractive with greater variety of

to operate on the dollar. The
President announced this policy
October %. Then bonds began
to slide.
That is just a plain fact of re-
cent history. It does not take
any expert to see when bonds
turned weak, and what happened
just prior to their weakness.
Anyone can figure the thing out
for himself. Government bonds
are payable in dollars, and are
worth no more than dollars.
Decline Seen Certain
The Government first takes the
dollar off the gold basis, and then
proceeds to reduce the value OF
the dollar. How, then, can we ex-
pect the value of Government
bonds to remain unchanged?
You can't expect the value of
any dollar bond to stay up when
you put the value of the dollar
down.
1t is a plain fact that all high
grade dollar bonds have been de-
clining. The slump has not been
confined to Government bonds.
Why is this? Are we to conclude
that some big bears have been
selling all bonds short?

bear on the dollar? He has been
forcing it lower and lower in terms
of gold.
But dollars are just as much the
obligations of the Government as
bonds are. They are in large part
practically Government notes.
Thus the real bear operations
in United States credit are being
conducted by the Governments
chief expert. .''. Z.
A period of declining Govern
ment bond prices is the usual
thing in an inflationary period.
Greenbacks for War Debt
The Civil War was paid for
through public debt and green
backs. Both deprecated greatly.
Government IS sold down to 83 in
1875. D., 49,
Then wealthy people bought
the bonds when they were low.
Then the people were burdened
with heavy taxes to make the
bonds good. Then the bonds came
back and the buyers made big
money. .,-. .:..
Don't forget that the Liberty
bonds have sold in the eighties,
even though they were supposed
to be payable in gold dollars.
I cannot conceive of such a
thing as a default in the case of
our Government bonds. I believe
in the credit of the United States.
In a sense, Government bond
will come back.
In the past, however, our bonds
have been payable in gold. There
has been no devaluation Of the
gold dollar.
Always Have Returned
Our bonds have always c o m e
back in; terms of purchasing power
and value because they have been
payable in gold dollars of g. def.
mite value. e.. :.
Now, in so far as we know, our
bonds may not be payable in gold
and if they are the gold dollar will
not be worth nearly as much as In
the past. It may be permanently
and definitely reYalued at some
thing like so cents worth.
So even if the "price" Of bonds
in smaller dollars should c m {
back, the value" of bonds in terms
of purchasing power over cOmmOd
ities-the real income they yield
may be permanently reduced.
That might, in a sense, reduce
the public debt. But you can't eX
pect the bond holder to like it.

VANDERBILT. HAS
BOND PLAN

NEW YORK, Nov. Is G.N.s0.
The principal of the proposed
commodity dollar was applied to
bonds by Frank A. Vanderlip,
former banker and director OF
the Committee of the Nation, in
his suggested reforms Of the mon
etary system, made known today.
Vanderlip's proposal is that
Government bond issues contain
a clause fixing their redemption
value in accordance with the Bu-
reau of Labor's index Of commod-
ity prices.
Thus, if the index advanced 10
per cent, the bonds value would
be raised this amount, and con-
versely. -
This recommendation: followed
previous ones by Vanderlip in
which he called for changes in
administering the gold standard.
