of bread crumbs to make a stufdng for roast chicken. And many and varied are the seasonings employed.
 Rice Stuffings
 First, there must be 8 pilaw of rice, which is to say, rice cooked to that dry, fluffy consistency which leaves earch grain separate yet per fectly tender. Then for the poultry stuffing one adds to the rise these various SeaseningS:
 Dice of ham and mushrooms and fried eggs.
 Or dice of pimientos, peas, and garnish the chicken with grill- ed tomatoes and rounds of onion, French fried.
 Another stuff1ng uses rice which has been mixed with sausage meat, peas and dice of pimientos.
 Or one may mix with the rice pilaw dice of tomatoes and garnish the platter with stuffed tomatoes.
 Pilaw rice mixed with shredded mushrooms and tongue is also ex- cellent for chicken dressing.
 And often, when the chef uses rice for stuffing, he will add dice of fois gras, or feie gras and sausage meat, combined. Sometimes, instead of rice, he will use cooked noodles mixed with grated cheese, little cream and dice of the foie gras. Raw noodles fried in butter are then sprinkled over the top.
 A famous Southern dish is roast chicken stuffed with corn or maize mixed with dice of pimientos and garnished with rice, fried bananas and little tartlets filled with creamed sweet corn.
 During the long winter you have served as frequently the roast fowl either chicken, capon, duck or turkey - with the conventional bread dressing why not, for the spring menu, try some of these rice stuf1ngs which are deliciously diff ferent?

Bottled Milk For
 Summer Desserts

VHARM weather is here = when w appetites lag and distracted mothers are at their wits ends to find dishes chat will appeal to the palate. In hot weather, heavy des. serts should be given Q cold shoulder and light. delicate concec. tions, which whet the appetite and make the whole meal more attrac: tive, should be substituted.
 For these warm.weather dishes. you will find your familiar milk bottle a veritsble Aladdin's Lamp. With It's magic, host of delightful delicacies are easily prepared. Only be sure to use glass-bottled milk. In summer, more than ever, milk must have the perfect protec- tion which only glass can give. The slightest taint in the milk may spoil your whole dessert. Don't take a chance with inferior con tainers.
 The old stand-bys, tapioca and custard, are always good, but for something different try these:
 Puff Pudding

 A cub flour E teaspoon salt
 Beat yolks we'll and add flour, mixed to a thin paste with the milk. and salt. Turn into casserole and bake in moderate oven (375'F.) for half hour. Serve with any sauce.

 Kitchen
BY WILDA HOYT

BY WILDA HOYT Always rinse pans or mold with cold water before pouring jellied mixtures into them. Then the food will slip out easily when time to unmold it. Rinse pans in which you intend to cook milk for soups or custard, and there will be less like lihood of sticking. Butter the rim of saucepan about one inch in depth from the top, and contents boiling in the pan will not run over the top.
 If cooking is done over an elec- trio plate or one of the smaller electric stoves, it is safest to place an asbestos pad or stove-plate un- derneath the kettle to prevent scorching. Electric heat is HOT, and not as easily regulated as gas heat. This precaution prevents sauces, milk, soups and creamed vegetables from sticking and burn ing; and also enables you to fry eggs slowly.
 Can you make neat rolled sand- wiches? No? Then try this method: Trim the crusts from a long, very fresh sandwich loaf. Cut in thin slices lengthwise. Spread with creamed butter, then with any de- sired spread or filling. Roll up the slices as yeI would jelly roll and wrap it firmly in waxed paper. Place it in the refrigerator for an hour or more. Slice straight across, if you want pin-wheel sandwiches; slice on the bias in inch-wide pieces if you want a heavier, more sub Stantial roll.

40 SEE Bue NrSG me, cEepe@Jke crinkles appearing upon the throat and beneath the eyes makes me want to shout oh, PLEASE more sodium in your daily food. Study your food chart . '. see how many delicious foods are rich in this precious mineral and eat of them as generously as possible-not for a day or 8 week, but continuously.
 Sodium may be called the lubri- eating mineral of the body. If there is not sufficient sodium in the diet, joints actually become dry and creak; the vein and artery walls become hardened and what we know as "old age" invades the body.
 It is lack of sodium in the diet that causes the throat to become lined and flabby and the face to wrinkle. So take down these vege- tables and fruits which contain 8 high percentage of this essential mineral salt, and be faithful to them from now on when planning menus.
 Okra, celery, beets, carrots, tur- nips, asparagus, string beans, cu- curnbers, cottage cheese, oatmeal, cocoanut, apples, black figs all these foods contain sodium. See what broad choice of good things to eat they provide for us, as raw salads, cooked vegetables and deli- cious desserts.
 With okra, use tomatoes, and make a most appetiEing escalloped vegetable dish. Tomatoes, too, are great aids to beauty. They are rich in iron which feeds the tissues, gives energy and rosy cheeks.
 Carrots, beets, stringbeanS, as- paragus, turnips can go together on one fine vegetable plate or be used alternately two by two as the green vegetable membe.s of many menus.
 Celery you ma. use in salads or as a cooked vegetable, or in cream soup with milk--another famous beauty food. Cottage cheese, apples, carrots, cucumbers-in fact all the vegetables can be used in salads. Strawberries, cocoanut and figs pro- vide three royal dessert ingredients with which you can do many inter- eSting things.
