RATS TOO BIG TO DESCRIBE One of the most gruesome rat ex- ;periences ever related is- told by Kingsley Fairbridge, founder of .Orphan and widow' emigration to South Africa and Australia, in an autobiography just- published. ` It happened in a deserted road - maker's but up country in South Africa. In the middle of the night his companion shouted that a rat had fallen on his face; Kingsley struck a tmatch. Rats leaped from. the skeff-box— from under our galvanized beds— from under our very noses. They rushed, into cracks in the walls, and mo great was the crush that they sometimes jammed; they sped up the walls in strings; big ones—too big to be described—tittle ones and ones of middle size. They sprang on to us and over us, squealing like demons. Multitudes fought and struggled in the thatched roof. Here and there were holes to which they tore; at one sole there was a r block, and a whole writhing phalanx of clinging rats; of all sizes and every degree of hor- ribleness, dropped shrieking to the kor. TOMATOES .AS FOOD ARE UN EXCELLED On our files we have an article on tomatoes, in which the author holds yip this food as an example of what the housewife should not buy. He compares it, in fuel value, with dried peas and beans, wheat and pork, anJ earnestly advises his readers not to buy a food that is "ninety per cent. water." The article is dated 1917. On the same file lis an article dealing with the same food, and dated 1927. In it the author cannot speak too highly of tomatoes as a food. He tells us that tomatoes are effective cleansers, that they a're rich in natural health acids, which keep the stomach and intestines in condition, that they are corrective for the kidneys, help- ing to wash away poisons that cause disease, bhat they are prescribed for diabetes and Bright's disease. Children in many hospitals are giv- en tomato juice; Dr. Hugo Friedstein, oaf Chicago, reports the vitamin con- tent of tomatoes as accomplishing the undreamed of in feeding infants and children and doing marvelous things in cleansing the system. We are told that tomatoes are a swift, sure and natural remedy for obesety. In canned tomatoes we have a year-round remedy. In many foods, vitamins are parti- ally or wholly destroyed by heat. Un- like other foods, the tomato retains its vitamin content even after can- ning, so that this inexpensive pro- duct, the canned tomato, is of inesti- mable value in the feeding of infants. (particularly when pasteurized milk er a patent food mustbe used), and for use in districts where fresh fruit and green vegetables cannot be ob- tained. During the winter months when fresh fruit and green vegetables may become too expensive for regular use 'on the table of families of moderate means, canned tomatoes should be made use of at least several times a week. 4 e t Savory Tomatoes.

PAUL,, Manager, Sarnia, Ont. $04a-tf teaspoon salt, one-half teaspoon mix- ed spice, one-quarter teaspoon pepper, garlic the size of a pea, 1 bay leaf, 2 tablespoons lenton jyake (about one- half lemon), 2 tablespoons sugar. Mix the ingredients together. If there is firm or hard pieees of tomato, chop them. Bring to boiling point and simmer for half to three-quarters of an hour. Thicken, when done, with four level tablespoons flour mixied with a Iittle cold water, boil for a moment or two and remove from the fire. This makes about 8 cups of the mixture, which I use in the following dishes: Three cups for scalloped tom- atoes, 1% cups for soup, 1% cups for sauce for an omelet or meat loaf and 2 cups for Chili Con Carne. The sauce is placed in a cool place and is used as required. Escalloped Savory Tomatoes. Three cups savory tomatoes, coda crackers or soft bread crumbs, two tablespoons butter. Place a layer of tomatoes in a buttered dish, sprinkle with crumbs, dot with butter, repeat until •the dish is full. Melt butter and add the remainder of the crumbs; stir them, then spread over the top. Bake 20 minutes in a moderate oven. If desired, grated cheese may be added. Savory Tomato Soup. One and a half cups strained savory tomato, 2 cups milk, 2 level table- spoons flour, 1% teaspoon salt, one heaping tablespoon grated cheese, 2 tablespoons butter. Melt the butter, stir in the flour and stir until bubbling, add the salt, then the milk gradually; stir ,until smooth and moderately thick; add the cheese. Scald the tomato and add it gradually to the sauce immediate- ly before serving. Do not boil the mixture after tomato is added, but serve at once.
