Other Ways.
BY EDITH M. BARBER.
T WONDER II you know what a
cheese fan Is? At q readers re-
quest ] searched for this recipe among
my foreign cook books and found 1t In
one of my French books. As this is
not a sweet cake 1t may be used at
luncheon or made into small ROUNDS
as an appetizer to serve with drinks.
A correspondent writes and asks why
her cheese cake falls. Cheese cake
will settle little away from the edges,
but 1t will be baked throughout II you
follow the recipe am giving you to-
day Cottage cheese may be used in
stead Of cream cheese, as this reader
would like to know, If you press 1t
through q strainer and beat 1t thor
oughly.
Another reader asks how much she
should spend on her table for three.
A family can be fed on small amount
Of money and good nutrition can be
maintained If care is taken. Very
little meat and a small variety Of
fruits and vegetables can be used in
this case. There must be plenty of
milk, some eggs, potatoes, tomatoes
and the cheaper vegetables. At least
half the cereals and breads should
be whole grained. To make interesting
meals on a small budget the house
keeper must be clever and make use
OF herbs and spices as much as pos
sible. A much easier matter TO plan
appetizing meals on q little more
money, as variety furnishes US almost
automatically well-balanced meals.
