Start The Day
Right With A
Hearty Breakfast

~
There are some men who can eat
the same breakfast day after day
and 90 to the Office feeling as fit
as fit can be. But there are many
exceptions, and these men, unless
they are well fed and given varie-
ty, start off an otherwise perfectly
good day with a frown which lasts
until that craving for variety in
food is satisfied. There are a few
who eat just fruit and drink
coffee, but this man isn't 50 liable
to enjoy himself in his work as the
man who eats a good hearty
breakfast and leaves home feeling
contented with the world.
Every breakfast should include
fruit, either raw or stewed and a
cold or hot cereal should be in
cluded at least once or twice a
week. Eggs are up to the individ-
ual taste and there are enough
recipes for the preparation of eggs
so that one could eat them every
day Of the week without firing of
them. The trouble with most
breakfasts seems to rest in the
toast. Now toast is very popular
and is eaten more often than any
thing else for breakfast but a sub
stitute occasionally was never
known to be displeasing. A fine
coffee cake is a good substitution
and is one sure way of sending
the man Of the family out into the
business world in the morning with
. very satisfied expression. One
that will make the housewife pop
ular with his fellow workers:
NUT CRUMB COFFEE CAKE
2 cups sifted cake flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
" teaspoon salt
8 tablespoons butter or other
shortening
cup sugar
l cup milk
" teaspoon vanilla
2 tablespoons sugar
u teaspoon cinnamon
Y cup soft bread crumbs
2 tablespoons melted butter
2 tablespoons walnut meats, fine
ly chopped
Sift flour once, measure, add
baking powder and salt, and sift
again. Cream butter, add sugar
gradually, and cream together
well. Add flour, alternately with
milk, beating after each addition
until smooth. Add vanilla. Turn in
to a CREASED pan, 9x9x2 inches.
Combine sugar and cinnamon, mix
with crumbs, add melted butter
and nuts, and sprinkle over cake.
Bake in moderate oven (350F.)
45 minutes. Cut in squares in pan
and remove each square carefully
80 that the nut-crumb topping will
not crumble. Serve hot with coffee.

ANALYSIS

AS q prelude to the Montana
seed, corn and potato show which
viii be held In Billings Dec. Is, is
and IL, seed samples 70 be entered
in the show must be tested for pur-
ity and termination prior TO the
event. Tests arc 70 be made at the

tory at Bozeman, according TO 3
communication received the other
day by Ralph ID. Mercer, extension
agr0nomist at Montana State col
lege.
Samples, he said, should be sent to
the Montana Seedgrowers association
office at Bozeman and the deadline for
receiving samples is Nov. 20. In addi-
ton to being marked seed show ex-
hibit," the sample should also carry
a tag giving the name and address OF
the growers and the amount of seed
which he has for sale.
The ruling on testing applies to all
samples of small grains, grasses, le-
gumeS and corn seed.
Because seed supplies will be very
short in many sections Of the state,
an attempt will be made through the
show to list all supplies Of seed avail
able in the state.
There will be three classes in the
seed show-registered, approved and
common.
Entering of registered samples will
be automatically taken care of when
hey are submitted to the seed growers
association for grade, Mercer said, and
registered growers should send in their
samples at once.
Approved seed which Is produced un-
Ter the supervision of Montana county
extension agents should be submitted
or tests by the agents Producers of

county agent with a sample for testing.
The common seed class will be COM
ooSed of all samples submitted aside
