By Betty Barclay Whefn baby learns to walk, mothers must reconcile themselves to extra hours of vigilant watqhing; but for­ tunately, modern science has halved the burden of toddler care by eman­ cipating mothers from daily bouts with the food chopper. For youngster between one and four, doctors usual­ ly prescribe a menu change from strained foods to chopped foods as the intermediate step toward adult diet. This progress used to mean end­ less drudgery for conscientious par­ ents, but today, uniform chopped foods are available in cans just as strained baby foods are. Among the chopped foods in cans which are being featured for toddlers’ diets are carrots, spinach, beets, green bcaiis, prunes and apple sauce. A vegetable soup with a wheat em­ bryo content as well as chopped vege­ tables and a liver soup arc new todd­ ler favorites that come in cans. With the classic baked potato and the addition of certain strained baby foods such as peas, tomatoes and ap­ ricots which do not adapt themselves to the intermediary chopped form, the young citizens between One and four are assured of a widely varied menu and emancipated mothers have extra hours to catch up on beauty treatments or reading. Toddler’s Baked Potato Scrub the potato with a brush. Cut the ends to allow the escape of steam when baking. Bake in a hot ovett (450 F<) about forty-five minutes, or until mealy, or else bake in a cover­ ed baker on top of the stove. When done squeeze the potato in a cloth until it bursts open to allow steam to escape.

On the average farm this item will amount to about $1,500. Depreciation greatest factors the contend with in this is usually figured at many cases, however, ‘this figure will be nearly doubled, but with proper housing facilities or proper handling, it can be reduced considerably. With another season of work not faraway, now is the opportune time to get drills, disk harrows, cultivators and other machinery checked over. A few hours’ work tightening loose bolts and bearings, replacing worn or miss­ ing paries, will likely save valuable time during the busy season. It is a paying proposition for the farmer to be able to take his machinery into 1 the field at the start of the season in first class condition. Much of this work can be done now, such as sharp­ ening disks, harrow teeth, cultivator shovels, etc., cleaning and adjusting the disks and scrapers on the grain drill, seeing that' oiling systems arc clean and in working order so that all parts of the machine arc properly lubricated, and so on.

Liberal use of oil or grease on ma­ chinery is not a waste but rather a good investment. Some parts will require more oiling than others, but generally speaking, for the average tillage machinery, proper oiling or greasing of all parts twice a day is sufficient.
