QUESTION BOX
Mrs. D. S. writes; Would you kind
ly recommend an oil for deep fat fry
ing as I have found that when potat
oes are added to the melted fat that I
use, the fat spatters a great deal.
Answer; \ ou are probably using
new potatoes which contain more wat
er than old ones at this time. If you
dry the sliced potatoes for French fry
ing before dropping them into the hot
fat this will,prevent spattering.
Mrs, A, L. suggests: Rub some well-
beaten egg whites over the lower crust
of berry pies, the juice will not soak
through if this is done.
Answer: Thank you, Mrs. A. L.
Your request for canning of vegetables
and the recipes for the pickles have
been sent to you under separate cover.
Mrs. C, W. asks: Our family detests
the odour of moth balls. Have you any
other suggestion that would serve the
purpose of exterminating moths?
Answer: Sprinkle powdered alum in
the crevices of the upholstery or ar
ound the bottom of drawers.
Mrs. B. M. requests: A means of.
keeping both red and black ants off
the table at the summer cottage.
Answer.-'Set the table legs in cups
containing water and kerosene.

Hints
I By MRS. MARY MORTON |
We don’t have to serve just one
vegetable and a salad with our meals.
A mixture of the plentiful vegetables
now available makes a nice change,
and you can use your judgment as to
vegetables you want to mix so
flavors harmonize.

Left-Overs
Hello Homemakers! How often
you “take stock” of the contents
your refrigerator? Is it crammed with
left-overs — if you plan your menus a
few days ahead; draw up your market
list to fit your menues, and then buy
just what the family really needs, and
no more, you’ll find that this system
will help solve that problem. Let your
garden serve you — wherever pssible,
and then you’ll have some left-overs
—but not a refrigerator brimming full
of them!
* * •* *
Above all, be. tactful in the way you
use left-overs! Don’t discoruage the
family by speaking of “pick-up meals”
etc. Use thought — imagination and
plenty of extra good seasoning em
phasizing one seasoning per dish —
for left-overs are apt tp be tasteless.
You can work out the details of an
appetizing meal — if you follow a few
practical suggestions. \
* *.1For instance, good-sized pieces of
meat may be used on a cold meat plat
ter or heated, with a sauce. The
scraps or pieces are used in hash, cro
quettes or for stuffing, in baked po
tatoes, etc.
* * *
Vegetables, left from a meal on the
previous day may be used as the basis
of a soup, especially if meat stock or
vegetable juices have been saved.
