GRANDMA’S garden
All through Grandma’s garden stood old-fashioned flowering shrubs,

told me, for the garden was older than the house we were living in. The
plants were mostly perennials and were thought of as permanent members
of the family- There were sweet-rocket, purple and white, London pride,
very stiff and very scarlet, clove pinks that smelled like the East India
Spice ‘Company, and moss-pinks that crept great distances through the
■grass when no one was looking. From the abundant brown pollen of the
tigei' lilies we used to make up our faces as Indians. There was love-m-
tlie-mist, bleeding heart and heart’s ease (ease from angina or love, I
wondered, and used to eat tlw blossoms to see; but as I had neither af
fliction I felt unsure of my conclusions.) On the far stone wall, May-
apples prodded their folded umbrellas through the spring mould, and
under the two big maples, the gray-blue stars of perriwinkle twinkled
through tangles of foliage. Of course Grandma grew a great many herbs,
naturally specializing in those used for the alleviation of discomforts, such
as catnip and tansy, rather than in the baser culinary sorts like sage and
dill for tempting the appetites of men already too much addicted to
“cooked meals.” A fragrant patch of southern-wood furnished many a
ruffle around little bouquets; another name for it was “lad’s love”. But

“Individual selfishness
ns this war.” Price
Donald. Gordon has voiced a solemn
warning to those whose selfishness
is holding back the effort for total
war. He says he can see no marked
.difference in our standard, up to
date, and speaks scornfully of those
who go on “buying sprees”, indulged
in because there is a little more
money about. If hoarding becomes
general, rationing must inevitably
follow the shortage of commodities
that hoarding brings. We are up
against crafty and clevei* foes who
have (used their years of peace to
prepare for war. Since we women
control the family budget, let us get
whole-heartedly behind our govern
ment in an all-out effort to conserve
our supplies.

If tempted! to complain of the
soaring prices, think of what food
cost in the last war. Sugar went
as high as $20 a cwt. In 1924 but
ter reached, the peak price -of 50c
a lb. A package Of cake flour now
bought for 25c cost 50c, Turkey re
tailed as high as 60c per lb; fresh
eggs in the winter went from 5'0 c to
$1.00 .per dozen. Apples are cost
lier just now, but better graded. Dur
ing the last war a percentage of
substitute, rye, oat or barley meal,
had to be taken with every pur
chase of white flour, while today we
are to be furnished with reinforced
floui’ at no extra cost. We will
have to do without the luxurious
spices, nuts ’and oils that came to
us from the Indies, but these
things that are far from vital in
diet.

being stored up against the day

by actually transferring blood from

When any part of the

of the blood is poured out upon the

actually in circulation through the
uninjured parts of the system may
be suddenly and sharply reduced.
This throws a strain Upon the heart

many cases actual 'blood must be

Simple Bread-Making
About this time of year, when
grow a little tired of winter food,
the family begins to crave some
good home-made bread. The old
slow-rising method frightens a good
many cooks, but in reality, bread
and it niany variations of rolls and
buns, is a very simple and safe
process. A good basic recipe, plen
ty of yeast and a little experiment
ing, will soon take care of any dif
ficulties. It is important to remem
ber to have the flour slightly warm,
to keep the dough itself free from
draughts and in a warm' (place, and
to use hard-wheat or general-pur
pose flour. I find that it is a good
plan to turn on the electric oven
for just long enough to slightly
warm it, and put the bread there
to rise, not quite closing the door.
However, a little care will keep it
warm in almost any kitchen. Bread
may be given an extra kneading to
secure finer texture and it may be
mixed in a thin sponge and stiffen
ed after the sponge has risen, as
convenience may dictate.
The following recipes are basic
and may be varied by the addition
of other flours, such as rye or
whole wheat, or raisins, nuts
(the latter two usually call ’
little extra sweetening.):

Penalties are now provided under
the War Measures Act foi* practices
which have been common in the
Ontario creamery industry for many
years, in respect to cream cans.
•It is now an offense under the
act for a patron to retain on‘ his
farm any creamery-owned cream
cans not regularly in iuse for ship
ping milk or cream; for any person
to put anything except milk or
cream in such Cans; or to ship cream
to a creamery in a can belonging to
another creamery.
The reason for this sharp revi

supplies of tin are growing short

extend their life to the limit.
