SUNDAY DINNER

uOME-BAKED cakes, pies and
pastries have shrunk in volume
under the impact Of better CONNER
cial bakery production and less time
available to the average home
maker.
Duplicating or surprising home
made taste and quality by CONNER
cial bakeries. the A & P Service for
Home-Makers points out, is likely to
make this wartime change perma-
nent. Even when housewives now
employed in war industries regain
some OF their free time, the pastry
recipes may not get much call -
the home kitchens.
In World War /, home-baked bread
and biscuits lost out TO commerciss
baking. Before that war period only
hall the bread in the United States
came out of commercial ovens. But
surveys indicate that only 10 per
cent of the nations bread now 10
home-baked.
A quarter century ago, home
baked cakes were favored over COM
mercially baked cakes by three to
one. improvements In cake making
and in pies and pastries have now
made the commercial product
three to one favorite. The purchase
of quality materials, the use OF en-
riched flour and the printing OF
labels stating ingredients are cred
tied with increasing the preference
by housewives.
Commercial baking has assumed
a volume Of two billion dollars an
nually in the United States, q one.
third increase over 1889 figures.
Most OF the increase has occurred
since the country entered the pres
ent war.
Many OF these bakery items At

might include hot mullins, roast leg
Of veal, praised carrots, mashed po-
tatOes and gravy. fruit salad, choco'
