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. * * Anne Allen invites you to write to her c|o The Advance-Times.

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.
