Skim Milk as Human Food.
I
Have you ever stopped to think how s
many steps you take In a day's time in a
doing kitchen work, and how many of *
these steps are unnecessary? The con
vouieuce <u UK. Kin-nun?me nouse- *
wife's workshop?is becoming a sub- t
Ject of considerable study by both city *
and rural people. ? to
Give the rearrangement of the kltch- *
en the thought that it deserves, for It to
is the most important room in the to
home. Perhaps u window can be cut n
In the east or south wall to admit more light
and ventilation. Some kitchens a
huve too man doors. They might be s
made more attractive if one were per- s
manently closed and a cabinet for F
dishes and cooking utensils built In its F
place. A small, compact kitchen saves e
many steps and much useless labor, t
but If the room is large the arrange- o
mont of the kitchen stove, worktable, c
< -sink, ice box, etc., near the pantry door 1
I will accomplish the same results. 1
Lighting, ventilation and heating are
particularly Important In the kitchen, v
x For ventilating purposes, a window fl
that reaches nearly to the celling, with 1
a top sash that can be readily raised t
or lowered, is especially good, as it lets
out the hot air which naturally rises.
In lieu of such a window, smaller ones j
for ventilating purposes may be pro- r
vlded neur the top, over the cupboard, f
table or sink. Glass panels in the f
doors are advisable. There can hardly
be too many windows in a kitchen. c
o
Don't let any vegetables go to waste 8
this fall. It will be wise economy to ?
store all that you do not can, dry, r
pickle, or brine. A well ventilated eel- ^
lar Is a convenient storage* place. If I ?
there is no available space there, an j
outdoor storage-pit is satisfactory. Select
a well drained spot, pile the vegetables
In a shallow trench, cover with
straw, then a layer of dirt, etc., to pro- "
tect from freezing, and provide ven- 11
tllatlon at the top. to

SKIM MILK FOR HUMAN FOOD. v
r
Value of This Product Frequently Un- "
derestimated in the Home.
The food.value of skim milk Is frequently
underestimated in the home.
As a feed for young farm animals and t,
chickens It hns long held an Important
place. However, It Is not generally
recognized that as hnman food It Is f
equally valuable. Although the great- s
er part of its fat is lost In skimming,
it is proportionately richer in the e?- p
sential tlssue-bulldlng materials than
wholo milk. It Is most commonly used R
in the home as a nutritious beverage
but is also valuable in a variety of
ways in cookery and in the preparation
of cottage cheese and similar products.
Only that which cannot be made c

unr ui in iiic uuiue hiiuuiu Ul* UH1H1 III ^
* tho feeding of stock. n
While skim milk is good for stock,
the fact remains that Its highest efficiency
cannot be had through turning
It Into meat. Skim milk Is used most '
economically in animal production 11
when fed to hogs, yet It takes 20
pounds when fed alone to produce one u
pound of pork. The same quantity 1
will make three pounds of cottage
cheese. In addition, cottage cheese contains
one-third as much energy as d1
pork, so that the skim milk in the si
cheese form gives quite as much en- cl
ergy and four and one-half times as p:
much protein us it would it converted
into ham or bacon.
Even at the highest prices recently b<
paid for hogs, skim milk fed to them n
is worth not more than one cent a it
pound. Yet one cent a pound or ap- it
proximately one cent a pint, is very ei
cheap for any human food, and parttcu- p
larly for a food so high in nutritive w
valoo as skim milk. q<

Delicious Apple Butter. )t
Do you have apples that won't keep ei

"
HIS CONVENIENTLY ARRANGED
EN.
n nenrly every farm. Don't let them
;o to waste. Make thein Into apple
cutter this fall.
The familiar sight some years ago of
naking apple butter In a copper ketle
hung over an outdoor Are Is not
ommon these days. The housewife
if today, however, has not lost the
rt but makes an equally good product
in the modern kitchen range. Here
ire some of her recipes:
Apple Butter Without Cider.?When
he handy cider press is not avail- j
iblo and cider is hard to secure, some I
:ooks make their apple butter from j
ipplos alone. Cook the apples in as i
Ittle water as possible and run through
i sieve. Allow this sauce to simmer J
iver a low tire two hours; then add '
l pound of brown sugar to each galon
of sauce and stir over the Are for
wo more hours. Just before removng
from the fire stir In cinnamon, allipice,
and cloves to taste?usually
ibout one-half teaspoonful of each per
:allon.
Old-Fashloned Apple Butter.?Wom>n
famous in the art of cooking will
ell you that no apple butter compares
Clth that made by the long, slow cookng
of apples in sweet boiled cider,
^lve gallons of sweet cider should be
Killed down to two and a half gulons,
then five gallons of sliced, pared
pples?or five gallons of apple sauce
-added and ull cooked together over a
low Are for from four to six hours,
tlrring often. If a tart butter is delred
no sugar need be added, but most
eople prefer some. If desired, add a
tound of white or brown sugar for
ach gallon when the product Is about
wo-thlrds done. A half teaspoonful
f ground cinnamon, allspice and
loves are usually allowed to each galon.
Stir In at the end of the cookng.
Apple butter may be kept by packing
rhlle hot in sterilized earthenware or
lass Jars, allowing to cool and coverng
with melted paraffin before placing
he covers.
A delicious war-time muffin which
s new to most housekeepers can be
nnde from potatoes and eornmeal. Use
our tablespoonfuls of butter or other
at, two of sugar, one egg well beaten,
me cupful of mashed potatoes, one
upful of eornmeal, four teaspoonfuls
if baking powder, one teaspoonful of
alt, one cupful of milk. Mix the ingredients
in the order given, drop in
aiiflln tins, and bake 40 minutes in a
lot oven. This makes twelve delicious
atifllns.
Saving by Substitution.
Rational food conservation does not
aean t'liat we shall he any less well
nourished than heretofore. It Is based
irimarily upon the fact that we can be
ust as well If not better nourished
/lien other foods are substituted In
art or In whole for some of those we
re accustomed to use most freely. Tt
aeans that the diet will perhaps bo
lore varied In many cases and this
/111 be a distinct gain since n varied
let Is more wholesome and attractive
han 11 monotonous one. For example,
t Is entirely possible to substitute
ens, beans, cottage cheese, and Ash
or part of the meat ordinarily conunied
without los of nutritive vnlue or
alatablllty. Potatoes may replace a
ertnln amount of bread. Fruits and
weet potatoes may be used to save
agar. When fruits and vegetables are
bundant their use may be increased
?lthout lessening the food value or ntrnctiveness
of the diet or seriously alluring
food habits. Farmers' Rulletln
71, "Fresh Fruits as Conservers of
>ther Staple Foods," tells how this
iay be done.
