The Question Box
Mrs. J, M. asks; How do you bake
kippers?
Answer: The easiest and yet nutri-
tious way: Arrange them on an oven-
proof platter or pie plate and pour
tomato soup over them. Dot with but-
ter; sprinkle with seasoning and bake
in a hot electric Oven for 20 minutes,
Serve with a slice of lemon and piping
hot toast,
Mrs, $3. J, asks: How do you make
a good crumb pie paste?
Answer: Use -very dry bread
crumbs. Make fine crumbs. Combine
with two tsPs, sugar and two tbsps.
melted mild-flavoured shortening or
butter to each cup of crumbs. Pack
into pie plate about one-eighth inch
thick and bake in electric oven at 350°
for 16 to 20'mins. Then Cool and fill,
Mrs. A. H. says; Tell folks, that
their housecleaning is not finished until
they clean the condensor of their elec-
tric refrigerator. We clean the fine
coils twice a year• with the vaccum
cleaner attachment or a long handled
brush. •
Note: Pull the cord from the con-
venience outlet to disconnect the re-
frigerator before you start the clean-
ing.
Mis, S. Mc. asks: WILY do some
pieces of home-corned beef become
tough when boiled and other pieces do
not.
Answer. You never "boil" ham or
corned beef. If the water is kept boil-
ing the fibres of the ,meat become
tough. Start the meat in boiling water
and boil if for several minutes so the
heat will penetrate to the centre of the
meat, then turn down, the element so
the water does not bubble but keeps
at a simmering temperature.

Spring is in the markets — the
c punters are beginning to take on a
colorful appearance, and to present
some items we haven't seen in a long
time. Asparagus, for instance, is
coming in every morning. It grows
quickly and as the season is all too
short we should make use of it while
eve can.
One of the nice ways to serve as-
paragus is with slices of ham. Cook
the asparagus stalks standing them up
in a saucepan or with the heads prop-
ped up out of the cooking water by
inserting a small tin at one side of
the kettle. Beat slices of boiled ham
in a small amount of tomato juice, us-
ing another saucepan. When you are
ready to serve, lay the slice of ham on
the platter and put a serving of as-
paragus on it. Serve with a mock
hollandaise sauce.
There are still potatoes on the
market this year. But let's not waste
them, Keep them in a cool dark place
and prepare them in ways to prevent
waste. A good rule is to serve baked
potatoes three times a week,
Take a Tip:
1. Check the price per pound or can
or package of the food you wish to
buy and consider nutritive value before
you buy.
2, Store the imported vegetables
carefully; they are accustomed to a
moist cold atmosphere. Clean and
store them in your electric refrigerator
in the crisping pan or covered pan.

FXTRA ,FARM HELP
GET EXTRA RATIONS
Arrangemebts have been made by
the Wartime Prices and Trade Board
to provide this year extra rations of
food for extra farm help engaged
seasonally in all parts of Canada, on
the basis of a limit of five meals per
person per day.
Any farm household in Canada, en-
gaging seasonal help for such work
as threshing, silo filling, woodcutting,
and other work, will be able to make
application for extra rations for these
crews up to a limit of five meals for
each member of the crews, if five
meals are being served each day. This
rule was in effect in 1943 but only in
a comparatively small number of cases
was it utilized ,to the thrift. Applica-
tion forms for the extra rations will
bear a statement this year to the .effect
that rations may be applied for up to
five meals a day per person, if requir-
ed.
Offieials of the Wartime Prices and
Trade Board believe that this extra
allowance will enable farm homes ,to
meet their needs for, most rationed
foods for the extra, gangs.
Since the war, thousands of Soviet
women have replaced men in the;
mints in Russia. The wife of a Red
Army officer sent a letter to all the
women of the Karaganda coal basin
urgini them to come into the mines
to take the place of their men at' the
front. As a result, 10,000 women are
now working in he Karaganda coal
mines, and the officer's wife has 'been
awarded the Order of the Red 'Binnet

It is always advisable to remove the
