To save cane sugar, why not plan a_ day's menu, using maple syrup and 'sugar instead of cane sugar? It would be too expensive to substitute maple sugar and syrup daily for the cane, and the change of flavor might not be pleasing either, but it can be used occasionally. There are maple flavored syrups on the market that may be used- in place of. the real thing, and they may be substituted in the following menu if You prefer. Eat the grapefthit without sugar, if you can, but a sprinkling of maple sugar is delicious if you must sweeten its a bit, The same is true -of the oatmeal if you feel you cannot eat it without sugar. Today's Menu Breakfast Half Grapefruit f Rolled Oats French Toast Maple Syrtip Coffee 'Luncheon Waffles or Toast Creamed Salmon Baked Apples Graham Crackers Milk Tea Danner Veal Roast Roasted Potatoes Scalloped Tomatoes Carrot-Cabbage Salad Maple Upside.

Boyle A PAMPERED PIG "It never pays to pamper a young :on!" That is a sage reflection of an' uncle of mine and in-the past few days I' am more than ever convinced that he knew what he was talking about the day he told me. His conviction is that no matter -what the circum- stances maybe you pay in the long run for pampering -of any kind. • Grunter, our grumbling, Berkshire had a litter of little pigs one night, There were eightperfect pigs and one runt. This runt seemed to be a social outcast among the others and even his mother nudged him. none , too gently out of the -way. He was the ugly, duckling of the pig family. Mrs. Phil's Aunt Bessie' was at 'Act E AGENTS or. Lazy Meadows at the time and she decided to take charge of the runt, He was installed in a lined basket -be- hind the stove in the kitchen, Shiver- ing and jiggling when he went in, the warm :milk in the bottle which they kept forcing him to lap up through a nipple soon rounded ont sonic of the wrinkles- in his little body, His least squeal would bring some- body running to give him attention. Patricia Ann kept piling on the cov- ers until he must have been sweating lard but that insolent little runt just kept on prospering, His squeal developed into a grunt and he was moved out in his basket to the woodshed. He developed in time, a tendency to hop out of the basket and when Mrs. Phil discovered one Monday morning that he had bur- rowed down into a pile of clothes wait- ing to he washed, he was ordered a- way from the house. Porky seemed just like a boy in- velvet rompers' 'put in among a group of street urchins in dirty clothes when he was deposited with his brothers and sisters in the pen under the driving shed. He may have been a tryant in his basket in the shouse but he was a knee-shaking coward with those eight others . Now pig-pens are not the cleanest spots on .21 farm. Porky seemed to shrink up when his feet touched the floor. He backed into a corner and hunched his back and his estranged brothers and sisters ranged around and looked -him. over. His clean hide seemed no doubt very strange to them. They moved' in a little closer nd Porky pulled -back :as far as the boards would allow hiM tb go, Feeding-time interrupted' at the• right time and the family all trouped in to see what was on the menu. While they went at the task in a hearty manner, Porky stood around helpless. He was a battletfecl :baby. When he-was moved in on the produc- tion line Grunter took a couple of bites at -him and he twisted his tail up and squealed his way back into the other pen. When we came baCk to do the chores after supper the other members of the family - had. him - backed into a corner and Were giving him a real share of punishment. He was squeal- ing -and grunting and kicking .,and Mrs. Phil and Aunt Bessie handed down an ultimatum that he Would have to. go into a pen of his own. That's how it is that Porker has prospered,in a pen of :his own, Pamp- ered by everyone in .the family he gets the tastiest left-overs. A runt when he started out in life he is now at that. weight so appreciated by the Bacon Board and the packing plants. The trouble now is that the family think' that Porker should be spared fiom the execution block. Every slay he is platting on the pounds and every- day that I mention taking him away to market there is •a show of. tears. As .a sort of compensation, to lint they shower some snore tasty victuals on him .. which all means more weight and less chance of a bonus on him, The day is ,approaching when Phil Osifer will have to' get firm and 'take Porker away,' `realizing that for several days while' the memory is strong he will .be regarded with glances that so plainly say in a reproachful way, "You sold- that poor runt to a packing plant." NUTRITION MA IN OR LOSE THIS WAR Germany Starving Occupied Countries When Sir Wilson Jameson, Chief Medical Officer, of the British Minis- try of Health,, was in Canada recently, he said "nutrition will win or lose \this war." • , A recent survey of, food conditions in Europe' by the -Inter-Allied inform- ation:committee revealed that famine and .starvation' are' facing the occupied countries of Europe. These countries are being systematically pillaged by the Nazis to provide food,for the Get-7 .man people and their armies, the com- mittee declared. The Greek government in London said the German pillaging program in Greece is resulting-in an average of The Germans are never satisfied. Russia gave them a taste of the- -scorched earth pOlicy, but they ,stilt complained about the cold.
