Mr. and Mrs. Everett Skinner, Elimville THISBy' N THAT MRS, JMS Food experts tell us that diets will change drastically in the next 50 years. Reasons for this are that the shortage of fold in most of the world is getting worse and the population is increasing; North Americans are eating' far too much at present and, it is sus- pected, the wrong things; foods will continue to get easier to prepare and the trend to con- venience fooLis will grow; and doing less physical work ve need fewer and fewer calories, The fragrant smell of home - baked bread becoming rarer and surprisingly few women bake pies or cakes except from mixes. Cerer.ls that are jet- propelled and shot from guns have replaced the porridge cooked overnight. More people are using instant foods from coffee to ,otatoes, Everything instant? "Everything will be instant by the year 2,000" predicts the head of an international food company. While the world ' is steadily moving toward pills for food yet it is improbable that pills will ever replace food for leisure eating but they may be used by space travellers or even by the person who over- sleeps and hasn't time to eat breakfast. art As mentioned, not only do T' we eat too much, but we eat the wrong things. For years dentists have been telling us to eat less sugar yet the aver- age Canadian eats between 75 and 100 pounds of sugar in. one form or another every year -far more than his grand- father ever dreamed of. Overeating and increase in sugar and fat consumption are very inappropriate to o u r times. We get much less exer- cise than our grandfathers did. We ride around in cars and do less physical work so we do not need the energy foods in large quantities. This is fur- ther emphasized by our cen- trally heated homes and of- fices which eliminate the need to use calories to keep warm. Thus changes in a nation's way of life may be expected to bring about changes in diet too. What we'll eat in the future may be decided by world pop- ulation growth. Technicians tell us that the world's population doubles every 40 years, Sour Cream Christmas Cake Now we begin to wonder if we'll ever discard the tradi- tirial custom of baking Christ- /ries cake. Mrs. Elsie Clay Rogers, well known to so many Ontario women as she con- ducts cooking schools indozens of Ontario centres, recom- mends this recipe for Christ- mas cake which requires a small amount of butter and no eggs. 2 cups brown sugar 1 tbsp butter i/a cup cold strong coffee 2 cups sour cream 1 tsp soda 4 cups flour 1 tsp vanilla 1!t tp , each cinnamon and nutmeg Comfortable Home FOR ELDERLY POLI Why not give them the best?

By early fall, many look especially leggy, More often tnan: not, they are removed to some far -away place—the porch for instance— where they live out the dura- tion of their lives in awkward seclusion. This is the fate of too many good house plants. When a plant outgrows its attractiveness, it can often be helped by a simple method of propagation called air layering, say horticulturists with the On- tario Department of Agricul- ture. This practice lets plants produce roots on shorter stalks, Smaller, yet fully -developed and attractive off -spring result. .. Plants most suitably propa- gated by this, method are the I erect foliage types such as philodendron, rubber plant, dracaena and dieffenbachia, Here is how it's done. First, 4 notch the stem where you want the roots to form. Keep the wound open with a foreign ob- VWed.
