Good Cheese a Real Food . By CAROLINE B. KINO Culinary Expert and Lecturar on Domaatic Scienca HE Swiss have a proverb I I which very probably oiigl- 1 nated In the Alpine regions where the sturdy herdsmen and cheesemakers live from early summer to its close, with only bread, butter, milk and the delicious cheese of their own making, for, food. The proverb goes: “With butter,. cream and :heese, you keep away disease.” .In America, also, butter, cream and cheese play an important part in the diet. The gospel of milk drinking Is being taught in every public school; butter is now regard ed as a most important apd valu able product, and cheese, on ac count of its high percentage of protein and its rich mineral con tent, is in itself an almost complete food. . .. Rich in Proteins Genuine Swiss cheese is of es pecial value in the menu. Its pi quant Alpine flavor aids the appe tite and stimulates digestion, and its fat content makes it peculiarly fine for blending with other foo< It Is rich In Vitamine A, and it Is useful in supplying protehrs to those products that lack jrais im portant property. Switzerland cheese contains more protein than the average meat, twice as much as eggs, and supplies more calories th&ri an equal amount material except oil and very fat therefore, very properly/be frequently served in / of any other some nuts, meats. It/ may, tome form or other in place of meat * at the main dish of the luncheon or dinner, thut forming a welcome re lief from the usual piece de re sistance. <C ^ • • t Luncheon A La Suisse A luncheon menu built around a dish of egg plant au gratin topped with a richly browned crust of grat* ed Switzerland cheese would prove most tempting. Hors d’Oeuvres of tiny pear-shaped yellow tomatoes hollowed and filled "With ’ French dressing, to which a portion of grated Swiss cheese has been added, might usher in the main course. Olives or radishes will ac- - company the egg plant, with cru8ty__ rolls and sweet butter, and for dessert one might serve fresh, warm gingerbread topped with ^ whipped cream and accompanied by a bit of genuine Swiss cheese. A Tempting Dinner id here is a dinner menu for Crm evenings, that features Swit zerland cheese. As a first course serve a light cream soup topped with a grating of Switzerland cheese. Follow the soup with a tempting cold platter of sliced ham and perhaps. chicken, neatly ar ranged and interspread with halved stuffed eggs and slices of Switzer land cheese. Cool, pungent potato salad arranged on crisp lettuce will go very well with the platter,- and the dessert may be jellied fruit or simply sliced peaches with cream, with small cups of -black coffee. Altogether Too Buoy ~ to Seek Prosaic Work A big, he&lfhy-looking fellow knocked at the kitchen door and asked for something to eat, but the woman was pot charitably disposed. “Why don’t you get some-work?” she. snapped. “I haven’t time, ma'am.** •‘Haven’t time?” she asked In sur prise. - / A v “No, ma’am; I’m busy.** “Busy, indeed,” she said sarcastical ly. “I*d like to know what keeps yon busy?** f - “Tearin* round from house to house, ma’am.” v A. , “What?** 7 “Tearin* round from house to house, ma’am, tryin’ to git something to eat, takes up all my time, so I don’t have any left to work In.

This* is regarded as a . bad omen by the superstitious pleas antry, who think themselves _ twice blessed, if a stork builds on their roof. Indeed, in many villages the peasants go to the length of putting a cartwheel on their chimney, in order to entice this harbinger of good times. The: reason German scientists advance for this decrease is curious. In the winter the stork goes to South Africa, where his chief food Is the locust. In recent been waging a highly organized war on the locust. In this campaign ar senic'plays ajeading part, and /lL has been proved that whole col^hies of storks have perished through eating arsenic-poisoned locusts. > Exhaust Steam ' ' It was some years, ago that Sir Charles Parsons first showed that by means of~ the steam-turbine exhaust steam from reciprocating engines could be used to produce power more economically than it had been pro duced before. / Later Professor Bateau of the School of Mines, In Paris, discovered a. method of using exhaust steam-- . / DISBURSEMENTS.

There is po vacuum inside a waterspout—only a very partial vacuum, rarely sufficient to lift the water A much as two feet. The water of a waterspout is mostly rain from above. The lower, portion bt the spout contains a .good deal of sea water as spray (not a continuous column of water) blown Up by the wind. . .:>>■ a / that is oro, f. ©. b. factory The age-old struggle of youth versus age, and man versus woman, is still * moot question if the results of the recent hog calling-chicken calling contest sponsored by the Sears Roebuck Agricultural Foundation over Radio.SBUIon WSB, the Atlanta Journal,^ can he adttritted*is evldcfhcel ' v 1 The long experience of J. C. Branch of East Lake, Ga„ who has been calling hogs as part cf his regular duties for the past sixty or seventy years, stood him In good stead. In keen competition with proficient hog callers, both men and women, Mr. Branch finished two whoops and a couple of wlmoeys ahead of the field and fils election to first place In the contest was almost the unanimous decision of[the listeners. In the chicken calling division the melodious appeal In Miss Kate Gll- strup’s voice ypas responsible for lifting her to> first place.’ Miss Gilstrup, Who hails from Suwanee, Ga., and who has earned the sobriquet of the “flapper chicken caller,” likewise had plenty 'of competition and the contest was quite as interesting ns that of the hog callers.
