Prize Polish Recipes Poland being located so far north where the summers are short and the winters long, the people require foods that are nutritious and have great heat producing qualities. I Their foods are not fancy, but just food, simple and wholesome. Vegetables that grow and mature in a short time are used to a great extent such as peas, carrots, turnips, cabbage and other summer vegetables. I The Polish people are great stock raisers. Since the climate is cold, meat has a prominent place on the table, with the exception of Wednesday and Friday: then eggs, chicken or duck is substituted.

Wild game is a Polish favorite, the men spending much time hunting, specially during the winter season. I If you are fortunate enough to be familiar with some Polish people, you will also notics fish one oi their favorite foods. In summer it is served fresh and pickled in winter. You will rarely find it cured by means of salt in Poland as you do here in America-Potatoes hold an important place in the diet, since they are an inexpensive food, and also mature in a comparatively short length of time. Barley, corn meal and oats are used more than any of the other cereal grains.

Their breads, cakes and cookies are all rather heavy, cornmeal being used freely in all of them. A large amount of fat is also used in their baked foods. Buckwheat cakes, or fried corn meal mush are not only served for breakfast but for dinner and supper. In fact, either one is sufficient for an entire meal. The buckwheat cakes are usually served with dried fruit or jelly, and the fried corn meal mush with sauerkraut, dried fruit or honey.

A list of Polish recipes will be tent upon request by writing to Marian Jane Parker, Calumet Baking Powder 4100 Fillmore Chicago, 111. Vegetable Dinners A Means of Economy I wonder how many housewares top to think or realize that three meals a day means 1,095 meals in a year. Keeping this in mind, the busy housewife has reason to say it is no easy task for one person to plan three meals a day. She must keep in mind such important points as economy, wholesomenesa, and last but not least, variety. To many home makers variety in the menu is the most difficult part of preparing their meals, ft just seems as tho it is impossible for them to think of new foods or new ways of preparing the old stand-bys.

Vegetable dinners are becoming more popular every day. Even hotels have on their menus special plate vegetable dinners or luncheons. In planning such menus keep in mind the food value of each food, and make sure you have a balanced ration. Include one protein or musclerbuiluin; food, two or three starch foods, one or two bulky foods, a sweet food and about two fats. This does not necessarily mean you must have a special dish for each food principal mentioned, but see that they are included in two or more of the dishes.

For in stance, the protein, fat and one starch may be included in one dish. As a rule, vegetable meals are Quickly prepared, since thev re- suire a short time for cool.ing. In tome cases let the oven do the cooking for the entire meal, mak ing scalloped or cssnornle dinhes. In every case we till like to pre pare our meals with the least ex penditure of time nnd effort. In nrenarin? such menls it neces eilates the housewife to make use o' dried vegetables' as beans, peas Hi some cases com.

This Is from the standpoint of economy; at this season green vegetables are expensive, and when she is market ing, the wise housewife desires to buy foods which she knows are tra ins: to give the best returns in food value. Much of the success and charm in serving vegetable meals depends upon the way in which they nre arranged on the plate. For in stance, be careful a to the serving of beets as the juice discolors all the other foods on the plate. In hotels or restaurants Ihey are served on compartment plates, which means each food is separated from the other. Vegetables may be most appetizing or unappetising according to the way in which they are combined.

This may he according to color, texture, food value.

VI course, the gravy i thickened after the dumDling are taken out a they do not cook weu in a uuck gravy, though many people are not aware of this. Try the following recipe the next time you have beef stew: cups sifted flour 2 level teaspoons Calumet Baking Powder tt level teaspoon salt cup milk 1 quart beef stock, steaming' hot but not boiling. 1 Mix and sift twice the flour, baking powder and salt Slowly add, the milk, mixing with a knife until' a son dough Is formed. Quickly drop by spoonsful into the steaming beef stock. Add a lid which fits tightly, and steam for fifteen minutes.

(If the beef stock boil-ins; the dampling break apart) After the dumplings are cooked' the beef stock may be lightly thickened by mixing 4 tablespoons o( flour with one-half cup of cold water. Remove the dumplings te a warm bowl, and add the flour, mixture to the hot cooked stock. Allow to boil for two or three minutes until the stock is slightly thickened. Pour over the dumplings, or put the dumpling back Into the gravy and reheat, but de not cook longer. When dumplings are of fruit for dessert such as Apple Dumplings or Peach, roll out a regular biscuit dough and cut into four-inch squares.

In the center of each place two half peaches, cooked, bring the four points of the square together, at the top and pros the edges together. Place in a greased baking dish and steam or bake in a moderate oven for thirty-five minutes (828-860 degrees Serve with either hot Peach Syrup to which a generous piece of butter has been added or with hard sauce. Use More Potatoes What do you use for stuffing or dressing for chieksn or roasts when yon have no stale bread This is a quickly solved problem, just supplement a few mashed potatoes. Yon have no idea what a delicious dressing you will have. To two cup of maahed potatoes add one-fourth cup of chopped salt pork, on small chopped onion, one-fourth cup melted butter, one and one-fourth cup bread crumbs, one level teaspoon of Calumet Baking Powder, one beaten egg, and ms teaspoon sage.

Mix all thoroughly, adding the baking powder to the beaten egg. Season well with salt, pepper and a dash of celery salt The potatoes brown nicely, producing a rich, luscious stuffing just as tasty as if all bread had been used. Do You Know When using bread flour in a recipe that calls for pastry flour, use two tablespoons less for each cup, and sift often for Turn oven burners out when baking is about done: this saves gas, and attention and produces a prettier crust When trying to remove a cork from a bottle, Instead of picking the eork to pieces, hold the top of the bottle in hot water a minute and it can be removed at once. If you are fond of cauliflower, bruisels sprouts or onions, do not deprive yourself of them on account of ths odor while cooking, even though you do live in a tiny flat Put the vegetable over the Are in cold water, throw a little salt in, and leave th pot uncovered. If you obey thess rules, the odor during cooking will be scarcely perceptible.

Everything placed in front of the guest is placed from the right, and with ths right hand of the waitress. Everything that goes at the right of the cover, such as coffee, a din ner beverage, and so on, is alio placed from the right and with the waitress's right hand. But if a fresh-ball of butter, for instance, or anything else whose place is rightly at the left of the cover, has to be served, the waitress may place it from the left, and preferably with her left hand. She may, however, offer it from a dish containing a large supply, for the gues to help himself. WESTERX MAN SERlOl'SliY HOTBED Elmer P.

Batter and Fruit Combinations The housewife who is seeking new cooking idea is the on who is going to be more skilled along the lines of cookery. Perhaps not many of you hare thought of combining fruits and batters to make a dessert which will replace the old one. Fruit may also be added to fritter batter, and the fritters be served in place of the meat dish for luncheon or supper. These fritter will be suf flciently substantial on account of their being fried in deep fat When fresh Iruit are in season, such a strawberries, cherries or raspberries, they may be added to the batter, and this either steamed or baked and served with whipped cream or a hard sauce. When fresh fruits are not available the canned ones used just as satisfactorily, be careful to drain off alt the juice, and this can be used in place of the liquid called for in the recipe.

By making a regular fritter batter fruit may be dipped into it, fried in deep fat and lervsd witn svTun or powdered sugar. Man people prefer to add the crushed fruit to a thick fritter tat ter and frv in deep fat Sliced pies, crushed peaches, bananas or sny desired fruit may be used. Then drop by spoonfuls in deep hot fat. They will require about three minutes for cooking and may also be turned often. Great care must be taken to have the fat of the proper temperature.

If too cool they will absorb the fat, and if too hot they will cook so qwickly that thev will not be well done on the inside. afternoon ISonchlok is said to have hppn showing the woman how to operate small automatic pistol when it was discharged.
