Q.2724 Two additional contributed reclpies for green tomato mince meat are published herewith today. The first, kindly sent in by Miss Addie P. Smith. Ottawa. Is practically the same as that given by Mrs.

C. M. Carkner last week, but accompanying it are further definite instructions regarding method." Miss Smith writes as follows: MINCEMEAT PICKLES. Chop fine one peck of green tomatoes, drain and add two table-spoonsful each of salt, cloves, cin-ramon and allspice, two pounds of well cleaned currants, two pounds of seeded raisins, and half a peck of peeled, cored and chopped tart apples, six pounds of brown sugar and one cupful of Cider vinegar.

Dear Aunt Maria: I made a discovery. I find I can iron out the tissue paper that comes in dress and hat boxes and use it again for parcels. I was tying up a birthday gift the other day, and necessity became the mother of intention. I used a warm, not a hot iron. If you paid a dollar for ideas, I might set my wits to work for you.

Consign him to a real hot place When other methods fail. The foregoing may be naughty doggerel, but the sentiments are scier.ti-rically correct. The "heat treatment" will cure the most persistent plague of moths or other "noxious" insects for that matter. The chief of the entomological bureau, Federal Department of Agriculture is responsible for this Information. Inquiry at the bureau was inspired by comment made on an article which appeared in The Housekeeper's Page a few weeks ago advising the liberal use of gasoline i applied outdoors for safety's sake) to rid chesterfields of moths.

The Head of A Family subsequently informed Aunt Maria that it might work in some instances, but FLAPPER FANNY SAYS: KO. U. t. PUT. OFT.

CI2T BY NC SERVICE. INC. Lust summer we were craiy with the heat; now it's the heater. not in all. There was the case, for example, of the valuable chesterfield in his own home, a chesterfield with a pure hair filling.

(Every home-maker knows how high these come and what a disappointment it is when anything menaces their long life and complete efficiency.) A. M. L. wife of The Head of A Family gives definite details of the gasoline experiment and a remedy now to be tried, the application of very high temperature extending over a period of several hours. Eggs Eluded Spray.

She says: "Last June we followed scientific advice to treat our pure hair filled chesterfield with gasoline It seemed to be literally alive with moths. We put the chesterfield outdoors, borrowed a spray for the purpose and used up about seven gallons of gasoline. That at least arrested the work of the moths and we hadn't had Indication of them after, but, to be perfectly sure, about ten days ago we turned the chesterfield over and ripped off the lining. We discovered rows of tiny moth ergs. Apparently the gasoline had destroyed all the moths and ege.s it reached.

Other eggs were probably in crevices which could not be reachrd bv the spray and these subsequently hatched out end more eggs were laid. Always before I have found gasoline entirely satisfactory for eradicating moths. "One instance I have in mind is that of a piece left over of the silk and wool lining for my fur coat. 1 have a trunk in which I keep linens When the piece of lining came homo. I was apparently in a hurry I put It down In a corner of the linen trunk instead of storing it with similar materials.

When I came across it some time after, I found several moth holes. I immediately washed the fabric In gasoline and hung it on the line, then when all trace of gasoline had vanished, wrapped It in newspaper and put it away, There has been no evidence of moths in It since, As there was nothing else of animal origin in the linen trunk, nothing else was touched. To Give Heat Cure. "But to get, back to the chesterfield. I am sending It to have a heat treatment which.

It Is said, is absolutely effective. The chesterfield will be placed in a room specially arranged for the purpose and in which a high temperature will be maintained for a length of time. I understand that after the heat treatment it will be subject to freezing temperature lor some days and that the extremes of 'ire will entirely eradicate the moth. Concerning the proposed process, Mr. Arthur Gibson, Dominion Entomologist said to Aunt Maria, "Superheating is a process we have frequently tried with success in connection with our department not.

only in killing moths but other insects as well such as berlburts which are more difficult to deal with than moths. While a central place operated mi commercial lines would simplity matters for city housekeepers, the superheat tug process may be applied Ht home without being necessarily dangerous to human beings or lo dwellings. The method Is inexpensive, It. calls (or Introduction ot additional means ot hen ting In the loom where treatment Is to be given In order that a temperature of 118 to 120 degrees may be obtained This high temperature is maintained for fix hour.

I am sure that such a contribution will be welcomed at this time of year by numbers of girls who are associated with clubs as well as homemakers. Aunt Maria.

"Mrs. Mac" of Cardinal, Ontario, gives these directions for making Green Tomato Mince Meat: 1 peck of green tomatoes. Cook tender before grinding. Peel, then put through grinder, then drain, and let come to a scald, tthen drain, add 5 pounds of brown sugar, 1 cup of vinegar, 1 cup of suet chopped fine, 1 cup of cider or fruit juice, 2 tablespoons of cinnamon, 2 tablespoons of cloves. 2 nutmegs, 1 tablespoon of salt, 1 teaspoon of ginger.

Cook one hour. Add 2 lbs. of chopped raisins, 10 cents worth of peel. Mrs. Mac, Cardinal.

ns yourself cannot help having bright ideas to meet emergencies. Won't you shares some more with us? Aunt Maria. MINT WITH PEAS. Dpar Aunt Maria: For years I have? made a practice of boiling a sprig of mint with green peas. It not only adds to the de-liciousness of the flavor, but makes the color more vividly green.

Recently I have tried cooking a bit of mint with canned green peas with most satisfactory results. Mrs. Ottawa. THAT BURNT CAKE. I remove burn from cake with a small grater instead of cutting it off with a knife.

The results are far more satisfactory. Emily Burke. LARD, NOT BUTTER. I use lard instead of butter for greasing bread and cake pans. I have learned by experience that bread and cake do not burn as quickly or have such a hard crust when the lard is used for greasing.
