Why Always Dessert?

With the sugar situation In Its
present state, desserts are becoming
mighty scarce in most American
households. Only those that call
for little or no sugar or in which
sirup or honey may be used are at
all practical OF course, there is
always fresh huit, for which we
can be very thankful-but even that
pals in time and something new is
demanded.
Why not change our ideas about
desserts bit? Don't confine the
finale of the meal to puddings,
jellies, pies, cakes and 50 on. Do a
little experimenting with other
foods, and you will find a whole new
world. Gourmets long have known
the advantage Of ending q meal
with a bit of cheese and the Eng
gliSh have stood by their "savOry"

I have pasted individual recipes

according to fish, cakes, salads, ETC.,
and may be subdivided within that

A Peach of a Story

Plenty of peaches for home can
ming are in the Nations orchards
and coming our way shortly
comforting thought, since the crops
Of sour cherries (for canning)
pears, apples and some other fruits
were cut very short by freezes.
Most of the peaches are in the
South this year. Many Central
Eastern orchards were severely
frozen out; have but a half crop,
on the average. The South, which
was frost-hit last year, escaped in
jury this spring and has bumper
crop. Southern peaches reach mar
ket earlier, of course. So the
big volume Of peaches will be In the
stores in July. instead of August. A
point to plan for, in your work
schedule.
Peach canning seems practically q
must" this season. Our fighting
men, plus governmental require
ments for occupied countries, will
take more canned fruits and vege-
tables than last year, and the crops
Of several major fruits were cut
short by frosts this spring-apples,
sour cherries, grapes, pears. This
MI points to the shortest supply OF
canned fruits, for civilians espe-
eially, since the war started.
War Food Administration says:
There will probably be one-fourth
Less canned fruits and vegetables
for civilians than last season. The
reduction will be heaviest in peaches
and tomatoes"
Sugar for peach canning Is far
from a sweet subject. Peaches are
canned successfully without any
sugar, but some sugar helps retain
shape, flavor and color in the jars,
A thin" sirup is ample for this,
and to help out, corn sirup may be
used, or honey. Says United States
Department Of Agriculture: use
honey, If you wish, to replace as
much as half the sugar called for,
or use corn strip to replace as much
Is one-third." (AWI-o3, u. 8. D. Al
Use Of more than these percentages
may change the taste slightly.

(From M. v. S., Arlington.
For Mrs. C. NJ, Alexandria: I cut
out only the recipes I think I would
like to try. put them in large white
envelopes, labelling the envelopes in
upper left-hand corner, filing them
alphabetically with a large rubber
band to hold, them such as beans,
beef, biscuits, cabbage, cakes, car
rots, etc. When I want a recipe for
different ways to fix various cuts of
lamb, review the clippings in the
lamb" envelope, choose the one
desire to try. If the recipe turns out
well and We would like to have it
again, I paste the recipe on a 3-by-5
card and it adds to my recipe card

dish the recipe is destroyed so that
time and food will not be wasted
again. In this way I am collecting,
