Peas are. commonly called the poor man's beef, one plate of split pea soup being equal hi food value to. two ounces of beef if a little milk is added. The cost per plate is only 1 2-3 cents. To serve 8 people generously use 1 cup dried split peas (Ye pound), 212 quarts of cold water, 3e medium sized onion, 2 -inch cube of fat salt pork, 3 tablespoons of butter, 2 tablespoons of flour, salt and pepper and '1 pint of milk. Soak the peas overnight to soften, and draw out the bitter flavor, drain well, add water; pork and onion. Bring to the boiling point and sim- mer 3 to 5 hours or until very soft.

Vegetable Fritters.—Two cupfuls mashed parsnips, two eggs, salt, pep- per, melted butter. Beat the eggs' well and add to the parsnips, Add the seasoning, and if the parsnips are especially juicy it is best to add a lit- tle flour to make the mixture into a stiff' enough batter. Fry in deep fat on a buttered griddle. Fruit Fritters.—Large fruits like. apple, orange, peach, banana or pine- apple --can be cut in thick slices, then dipped in fritter batter and served hot, sprinkled with powdered sugar. Smaller fruits however, like the vari- ous berries, cherries,. apricots, :etc„ must first bestone.: and then dropped, into the entire dish of batter. fritter. A spoonful of batter is then dropped into the boiling fat at a .time. Before you drop a fritter into the hot fat it is best to test the fat to see whether it is properly hot. The fat should be heated slowly until a few minutes before it is needed, then plac- ed over the hotter flame,, where it will become extremely hot. To test it, drop a cube of bread into the fat. If it sinks to the bottom, then rises and becomes golden brown in a minute, your fat is, ready for fritter making.
