goes well with cooked vegetables,
more especially with green beans
and boiled bacon.
Thanks to Mrs. A. W. W., Capitol
Heights.)
You recently had request from
Northern girl married to a South
ern man, for real down South"
corn bread requiring no flour. If
she wants the real Southern flavor,
she should look to two things es-
pecially, the kind of fat and the
right meal. For the fat, use Cd
first choice, salt pork fat, fried out
1--WE frequently call it "fatback") !;
(2) second choice, strip bacon fat,
and 60 third choice, hog lard. AS
to the meal, be sure and get fine
powdered meal, sold here in sacks,
usually called underground. It
should be fine like flour, and not the
kind sold in boxes, which is more
like small sand or sugar.
There is an eternal argument
down South as to which is better,
white or yellow corn meal, each
section sticking up for its particu-
lar choice. Here In Washington,
you are almost certain to get white,
unless you go to large supermar-
ket and inquire especially for the
yellow.
For plain corn bread, a heavy iron
griddle is best, it can be cooked
right on a burner on top of the
stove and looks like an oversize pan
cake. Care must be taken not to
burn 1t, this is very easy to do.
The griddle should be hot to start
with and then put on a very slow
fire, most cooks down South use a
little lid under the griddle: I use
a thing that came with top stove
roast cooker.
have a lovely cookbook full Of
the recipes of the best cooks in
my home town In South Carolina
and there is the one for plain corn
bread. Measurements were not
given, but I'll supply my own:
One cup corn meal, n teaspoon
salt, 2 tablespoons fat.
Melt fat on the griddle, pour into
the meal, add salt, then add hot
water to make soft dough, pour
onto griddle and bake slowly, turn
ing once. A good cook takes care
that her hoecake isn't cracked
around the edges, but this is a little
hard for beginner.
I hope the lady is successful. I'll
warn her, that few people not
Southerners ever like the plain corn
bread. My brother-in-l calls
1t cement cake So, I gave her

QlSconSOlate Vlctory gardener
writes to ask what he can do with
just few beets. He sowed an en-
tire row-25 feet of them-but the
seed did him dirt. 1t failed to do
its bounden duty. Only four of the
whole litter appeared above ground.
They we're scattered up and down
the row. What to do about 1t?
Well, now, there's no reason for
encouragement! Let the four beets
grow to good size and we will make
them into an epicurean beet soup!
,, To make such a delicious concoc-
ton we'll have ready a quart of
good beef broth-canned broth will
do or We'll make it of hot water and
six or eight bouillon cubes. While
the broth heats, we'll wash and
CRATE the raw beets, all four of them,
turn them into the broth together
with an onion the size of an egg,
sliced very, very thin. And we'll
simmer all this for about an hour.
Then we strain the broth, put it in
the top Of a double boiler and add
rice or tapioca, simmering about
half an hour. Salt and pepper, and
then a bit of sherry or Madeira
wine to taste. Do not overdo the
wine flavor. Add just q level table,
spoon at first. Stir and then taste.
Done with care and it provides q
delicate touch.
Serve In cups, topping with q
bit Of whipped sour cream, set un-
der the broiler flame for just q mo-
ment.
Or one may go completely Rus
sian and with four or five good -sized
beets prepare a pot of Bortsch-
and that's soup with big "S". In
fact some say that the power of

ly to the Bortsch these Russians eat.
Have ready q quart Of good beef
broth. Peel and dice the beets and
place in pot together with q tea
spoon Of vinegar or lemon Juice, q
couple Of tablespoons of bacon drip
pings and a little salt and pepper.
Pour the broth over this and simmer
until the beets are dissolved. Now
add cup of canned tomatoes or one
or two garden tomatoes. Cook Is
minutes more. Strain the soup
through fine sieve. Then thicken
with a tablespoonful of butter and
a teaspoon of flour, blended. Cook
it up well and serve with e spoonful
of sour cream in the plate and, the
crowning touch, small, very hot
boiled potato.
Then, again, the same soup may
be served cold. In that event, take
the strained soup and while still
hot stir in a couple of well-beaten
eggs-but do not cook. Let 1t stand
until the soup is ice cold. Serve
with a hot potato or with q spoon
full of raw. diced and well-chilled
