Please both your family and your
pocketbook. The ready-to-serve
cold cuts and the canned spiced
luncheon meats can be turned into
a variety of appetizing dishes. For
instance, spiced ham balls served
with sweet-sour sauce. Grind
the meat as you would fresh meat
and mix it with egg, seasoning,
milk, an uncooked cereal, shape it
into balls and bake. You can get
six servings out of i2-ounce can.
Serve it with either sweet-sour
sauce or a savory tomato sauce.
These meats are good broiled with
fruit, too. Let some OF the fruit
Juice seep down into the meat for
additional flavor. Even your men
who ate canned meat for weeks on

will have to admit it is good fixed

The local fruits and vegetables
are very plentiful now. You'll find,
too, that the prices are right. AS a
matter of fact, even though the
weather is pretty hot and humid to
even mention it, now is good time
to buy tomatoes, string beans, and
cucumbers for canning. Squash,
lima beans, California carrots, Gel

QUERY?
SUGGESTION.

From E. r., Washington
I have printed copy on silk of
the inaugural address of Martin Van
Buren. Who collects items of this
sort?
When cooking the fine grain ce-
reals, add a little cold water to it
before stirring it into the boiling
water and it will not become lumpy.

spareribs and stir for few sec

HELPFUL HINTS.
(From Mrs. r. J. S., Alexandria,
The orange cookie recipe pub
lished the week of July 7 dnadver-
tently failed to clip the lady's In
itial3 is truly superior" and her
remarks about the slow oven for
crispness and greasing the cookie
sheet have proved the answer to
something I have been seeking for
|years-a crisp cookie with beautiful
golden brown underside.
Some one may find the following
suggestions of interest:
The translucent marbles pur-
chased at the dime store serve many
purposes, couple placed in the toe
of stocking will prevent it from
winding around the washline and
from being snagged on the clothes
pin; several placed in a tea kettle
will greatly assist in keeping the
lime and/or iron in the water from
collecting on the sides and bottom
Of the kettle; help to keep jams
and jellies from sticking while being
cooked, and hold ivy or bulbs in
place when they are grown in water
When turning fried foods, If the
pan is removed from the burner
before the lid is lifted, the grease
seldom pops.
A metal baking sheet placed under
pies, potatoes, or baking dishes
catches any overflow while baking
and is much easier to clean than
the oven; also acts as q tray when
removing the food from the oven,
fewer burned fingers.
Eggs very, very seldom crack,
even when taken directly from the
icebox If held under the cold water
spigot for a second or two before
dropping into the hot water.
When preparing creamed vege-
tables, cook the vegetables In the
bottom part of a double boiler and
the cream sauce in the top. 1t
saves space as we'll as money.
Lemons stay fresh for weeks when
placed in the refrigerator In screw
top jars. About double the amount
of Juice is secured from a lemon II
1t is placed in hot water for few
minutes before 1t is squeezed.
To prevent being locked on the
outside of a screen door when 1t il
slammed, place the eye on the door
and the hook on the door jam.
A 25-cent bottle Of acetone pur-
chased at a drugstore equals about
dollars worth of nail polish re-
mover when purchased as such
Never let either spill on rayon, as
they simply dissolve some types 'ol
the fabric.
When repairing plumbing and a
washer Is not available ordinary
yellow kitchen soap will keep the
joint from leaking, and lasts almost
indefinitely. This applies only to
joints not under pressure, for in
stance, the grease pipes under the
sink.
wonder how many of us bother
to count the pills when prescriptions
are refilled. I discovered that sell
dom was the count accurate, 1t being
short anywhere from 2 to II. With
the pills costing S cents each, the
loss is soon noticeable, particularly
when ones bill amounts to $18 a
month and will continue indefi-
nitely. A considerable saving may
be effected by doubling the guam
tity: the druggist will be glad to
quote prices as well as rectify an
error.

u teaspoon tumeric, u teaspoon

Heat this mixture to boiling, add
cucumber and onion slices and re-
heat to boiling. Pack in the hot
jars at once, being sure to wipe
mouth of jars after filling as one
small celery seed will prevent seal.
These are really delicious after
standing 10 days to two weeks and
are crisp.

STEAM IRON.
(From Mrs. B. H. G., Washington
In reply to Mrs. w. B, T., River
dale, regarding experiences with a
steam iron would say I just couldn't
do without it. They are not
heavy and are wonderful when IRON
ing rayons, woolens, and cottons.
Some types have q cutoff which
will completely cut off steam when
ironing starched shirts which have
previously been dampened. Mine
does not, but I iron first all the
things that require steam and then
iron shirts last or before refilling
with water. I believe all models are
equipped with selector type control
as to heat.
II you have much nat work or
frequently press rayons, and wool
ems you will find it does beautiful
work and in much less time. I've had
mine for year so I think I've had
time to test one out.
Please, vote for Clearing House

Green SOUP


A soup that fairly breathes vita

eat and lovely to look at, is green
soup" that is a favorite of lady
who has made 1t specialize de la

Bring five cups of beef and ham
stock to boil. IF you don't have
the stock, beef bouillon can be
used) Add one cup raw minced
spinach, half a cup raw minced
onions, and half cup raw mixed
greens, such as kale, sorrel and beet
tops. Toss in a bouquet of parsley
tarragon. chervil and rosemary
Simmer all slowly for one hour, ther

Bacon.andEae Tarfs

u nc hfS
Bacon -and-egg tarts may sound
odd for cocktail party fare, but we
can assure you they will be relished
especially by the men guests, who
dislike the usual pasteboard-t tasting
canapes.
Fry, say about 8 slices of bacon
until crisp. Drain it on absorbent
paper, and break it into small pieces.
In the bacon fat in the pan saute a
teaspoon or so of finely minced
onion.
Beat up eggs until foamy, and
add about tablespoons of milk, a
couple of tablespoons of chopped
parsley, salt, pepper and mustard to
taste. Now add the sauteed onion,
and the. bacon bits. and mix all well
together.
Fill little tart shells or bouchees
with the bacon -and-egg mixture,
and bake in a moderate oven until
well set. These must be served hot,
at once.

Sea Food Sauce

Many people like to buy their
seafood cocktail sauce already made
and bottled from the grocer. We
find these much of a muchness,
so we'd rather make our own. Here's
the recipe we've been using lately
with great success, according to our
friends:
Make this up well in advance and
let it ''ripen" in the refrigerator
Mix together Il cup tomato catsup
u cup of lemon juice, u cup grated
horseradish, u teaspoon of shaved
onion and juice, teaspoons tabasco
II teaspoon salt, 4 cup white vine
gar (don't use the wine variety
here) and Il teaspoon celery salt
This will make about IL cups sauce
Chill thoroughly before using.
