SANDWICHES THAT WILL SURELY PLEASE A cup of tea in the afternoon brings a restful and refreshing pause in a busy day, The fresher the bread, the more delicate the sandwich. If you slice fresh bread with a very sharp HOT knife you can cut it thinly and eveninly with very little trouble. Most children like sandwiches and when the noon day meal has included some other dish of a substantial or nourishing type—cream of vegetable soup, or a salad,t a few sandwiches and little fruit and a milk beverage will make a menu that is wholesome and well-balanced. Whole wheat bread or graham bread and Boston brown bread with sometimes raisins or another fruit bread are good substitutes for cake. These breads are particularly popular when served in the form of a sand­ wich. Two medium-thin slices, filled, put together, then cut in four square sections, is one way of making the sandwiches. Or, scores of animals or geometric cutters arc now available if one wishes to make fancy sand­ wiches. Savory sandwiches ate popular when served With a luncheon salad. Spinach Sandwich Select the very tiny tender leaves from the heart of the spinach. Wash carefully and crisp in the refrigerator. Put between slices bi buttered bread and add salt to taste, the flavor dif­ fers little from lettuce, and the raw spinach is valuable in certain types of malnutrition. Raw Vegeiteble Sandwich Crate or grind raw carrot, cabbage vegetable, Press bread or toast filling. Hot Meat Sandwiches Grincj suitable quantity of hot meat. Moisten with hot broth, son with a few drops ’of onion juice and salt to taste. Serve between slic­ es of whole wheat bread or on a piece of brown bread toast, buttered. Egg and Celery Sandwiches Chop 3 hard-cooked eggs very fine. Add % cup celery, chopped as fine as possible, Vs teaspoon of salt and enough melted butter to make of spreading consistency. Spread between slices of white or whole wheat bread. Cut sandwiches in rounds or diam­ onds with a cookie cutter. Other savory sandwiches may be made from the miscellaneous sand­ wich spreads. Sandwich Loaf Remove crusts from a loaf of sand­ wich bread. Slice bread lengthw-ise; butter slices on both sides, except top and bottom slices. Making fillings as follows: One tin of Paris-Pate and one chopped Pimento; (Red Filling) Yolks three hard-boiled eggs, season­ ed with salt and pepper and one-half teaspoonful vinegar (Yellow Filling) One-half package cream cheese, soft­ ened with one-half grated cucumber (White filling) Four Small sweet pickles. Rolled Sandwiches Cut the bread very fine, removing the crusts. Plade a leaf of lettuce on each slice and in the centre a small quantity of the following: % pack­ age of cream cheese, ¥2 cup walnuts, chopped fine, and one small bottle of olives, chopped fine, and several sticks of celery, also very finely chopped. Mix these together, moistening with a little mayonnaise dressing, then add Paris-Pate. Roll the slices of bread either from one end or side and hold together with a wooden tooth pick. Three Tier Sandwiches Cut the bread in thin even slices, in matching threes. Spread each slice With softened butter and trim. Be­ tween the first two spread Paris-Pate, moistened with mayonnaise, with a little cress or a lettuce leaf put be­ tween them. On top of .this sand­ wich place a thin slice of tomato (well drained). Put a little Mayon­ naise on the tomato or, if preferred, sprinkle with salt and pepper. Then place on the third slice of bread. Cut in desired shapes. Ribbon Sandwiches These sandwiches are made of four slices of bread, two white and two brown, cut one half inch thick and trimmed. Butter one side of each slice. On one brown slice place some cream or cottage cheese, to which has been added some pimento olives, a taste of chopped onion; then cover with a slice of white bread. Spread this slice with Paris-Pate, mixed with little chopped_ With police grouped around the ing Buckingham Palace en route to were accompanied by the Princesses royal car to open a path through thfe Windsor Castle, Berkshire, to spend Margaret Rose and Elizabeth, dense crowds, King George and a quiet week-end following their ard-1 Queen Elizabeth are shown after leav- uous coronation week duties. They | horseradish is another good combin­ ation. $ Finely chopped chicken and celery, moistened with mayonnaise, always is a favorite. Thinly sliced breast of chicken be­ tween thin slices of buttered white bread is one of the most delectable sandwiches. Chopped hard-cooked egg and shred­ ded lettuce with mayonnaise is an­ other good mixture. Before you begin to make any kind of sandwich you must cream the but­ ter. Let it stand in a warm kitchen until softened but not the least bit runny.-Then beat with a slotted spoon or a dover beater until light and creamy. This butter spreads like cream and becomes firm again in the refrigerator during the chilling of the sandwich. Also with creamed butter you can make the various piquant butters that are so delicate between thin slices of bread. Add niinced parsley until the butter is a delicate green to make parsley butter. Add anchovy paste with a few drops of onion juice and lemon juice to make anchovy butter. Well-creamed butter, spread evenly over bread,, prevents the bread from soaking because the butter hardens and forms a moisture-proof coating. Roquefort as Stuffing Cream and roquefort cheese form a fine combination blended together and used to stuff prunes or dates. If you like, you may add a few nuts ground fine to the cheese mixture. the area the following year a mixture composed of 8 pounds of red clover, 2 pounds of alsike and 8 pounds of timothy per acre may be seeded with the oat crop. Where alfalfa grows well, 4 to 6 pounds may be added and the mixture seeded at the rate of 16 to 20 pounds per acre. Where areas intended for pasture are winter-killed a similar procedure may be followed. A suitable mixture to provide pasture the year it is seed­ ed is composed of oats 2 bushels and Sudan grass 25 pounds per acre. The oats will provide early pasture and Sudan grass, although somewhat slower in starting, grows well during the dry, hot weather of midsummer, and provides pasture later in the sea­ son. Grass and clover may be seeded with the mixture for next year’s hay ’or pasture, as grazing if not done too severely does not injure the new seed­ ing. It is advisable to reseed winter-killed areas as early as ible in the spring. these poss- News and Information For the Busy Farmer Farm Bulletins following list of agriculturalThe bulletins is available to Ontario far­ mers, having been published by the Department of Agriculture: > Fruits Strawberry in Ontario WINTER-KILLING OF HAY AND PASTURE (Experimental Farms Note) It frequently happens in Eastern Canada that hay and pasture crops----------------- . . - - _ — Cl 41 Cl VIC* LLtyiL Cl* IV* parsley; cover with a slice of brown • are injured by climatic conditions bread, spread with the cheese mixture,' which prevail during the winter and and then the last white slice.

Put herring through the centre and sprinkle with lemon juice and onion juice. Put under broiler until toast is brown. Minced corned beef combined with ly thinned the stand, it may be quite satisfactory to scatter seed of the proper mixture over the area and •cover it with a smoothing harrow. Such a practice does not injure the surviving plants and the new seeding will later grow and thicken the stand. In most cases of sever killing, how­ ever, all of the plants in low spots or depressions may be injured, or per­ haps an entire field may be affected. Where this occurs, it is more satis­ factory to disc or cultivate the area thoroughly and reseed with a seed drill. In order to provide hay for the current year it is necessary to use a species which will produce a crop the year in which it is seeded. A very suitable crop for this purpose is oats seeded at 2J£ or 3 bushels per acre. A very good quality of hay may be obtained if the oats are cut when in the milk stage and harvested like any other hay crop.
