Apples of Year, Many Varieties Available
Sausage
Season
May Be Cooked With
Potatoes and Apples
For Quick Meal

It's sausage season again. OF
course, country sausage never really
goes entirely off the market, but cool
weather brings many brands which
have taken summer vacation back
to the shop.
While We have always associated
sausage with breakfast, it Is just as
good for lunch and the business
woman housekeeper will often use 1t
for the quick meal. Our choice of
sausage will depend upon the par
ticular blend of seasonings which
distinguish one type from another
There is also some difference in the
texture. Good sausage should be
free from gristle.
You may choose between sausage
meat and sausage in castings which
are commonly known as links. The
meat should be formed into small
cakes and cooked slowly on both sides
until well Drowned. This will take
about IS minutes. The fat which
cooks out of the meat should be
poured off in order that the sausage
will brown evenly. We use a differ
ent method for cooking link sausage
The results are good and it is very
easy. 1t is not necessary to prick the
links to prevent bursting II you use
the method printed here.
You may like to use a one-dish
meal for quick supper, using
sausages with sweet potatoes and
apples. We suggest boiling the pota-
toes the night before or while you
are getting breakfast, in order to
cut the time Of preparation for the
evening meal.
SAUSAGES.
Separate ssusages and place In
heavy frying pan. Cover and cook
over low heat IS minutes. Remove
cover, turn sausages, increase heat,
and cook until golden brown. 1t is
not necessary to prick sausages when
this method is used Allow two to
four links per serving, depending
upon size.
SAUSAGES WITH SWEET
POTATOES AND APPLES.

3 apples.
l pound link sauSages.

dish. Core. pare and slice apples,
and place between potatoes. Ar

make sure that the basement will

Fire Extinguisher

A siphon of charged water is an
excellent fire extinguisher, as the
carbonic acid gas in the water helps
to stif1e the flames. The siphon can
be tilted and the fluid will carry to a

FARM INTAKE rs
H.. BEST SINCE 1929

Washington. - The Agriculture
Department said this week that
farmers were ending their best
year since 1929, with the estimat-
ed cash income totaling $11, 200,-
100000.
Moreover, the department said
next year should be even better
with an income of about $13, 0OO,-
000,000-an increase arising out
of continued improvement in de-
mand for farm products and in
creased production under the
food-for-freedom program.
The department said prices
were expected to average higher
in 1912, both those received by
farmers and those paid by them
but then commented:
Recently, prices paid by farm
ers have been rising more thar
prices received, thereby lessenin&
the purchasing power of farm
products"
