Cabbage is grown in all parts of the United States, and if it is mad an important .part of the vegetable diet it replaces shipped-in foods which require transportation space. " The United States Food Administra- tion advises the use of homg-grown vegetables not only as a matter of saving shippifig space, but as a saving of food which cannot be sent abroad. The folloving recipes may add to_the list of usual ways_of prlepa.rxng Victory Cabbage.

They will bear a cleser acquaintance. Anyone who has ever lived in Germany has already been introduced to them for the Ger- man Hausfrau appreciates the value of lentils as a simple, cheap and nour- ishing vegetable. They are in fact one of the oldest of food plants. Asia and the Mediter- ranean countries have grown them from thegearliest times. But because they furffish less brush than other leguntes, a§ beans and peas, Europe has never cultivated enough .for en- tire supply. With the growth of our foreign pop- ulation lentils have begun to find a place in American menus. Ouvr supply has been imported largely from Ger- many, and with that supply cut off the price; has nearly doubled. Except in the extreme southwestern sfates ilo effort has been made to grow them in this country. BEven at their present doubled cost are cheaper than meat and other n foods: They supply a greater amount of vrotein and energy at a ziven cost *han almost any other food. They contain about 25 per cent. pro- tein, more than 50 per cent. starch and a little over 2 per cent. fat. There are nearly 2500 ca'ories in a quart of len- Myron J. Ringland, of Norwich.

All England thinks now that it-is) better for the country if her famous private and public gardens protuce less btauty and more food. An early morning glimpse of Kensingion Gar- dens and Hyde Park reveals whole families at work, each in his allotted space, tilling and planting the soil where once were thick velvety lawns. One big factor in the increase of food production is the “back to the iand movement” and the interest in agriculture. stimulated by the help of women, They are working shoulder.to shoulder in the fields, organizing townswomen and the old and young who are capable of doing agricultural work.

Last years increase over 1916 in potato area alone was 97.837 acres, representing in yield 1.400,000 tons of potatoes. England has made a scientific selec- tion in terms of food value of the things she ought to raise and she is patting forth supreme effort to pro- vide herself with sufficient focd of the kind she cannot import. Detroit Turns Social Service to Pa- triotism, To live up to the war food pro- gramme is difficult for poor people Their diet has been more restricted and they are not familiar with much variety of foods. They are not troubled so much with inconvenience of pre- parinz meat and wheat substitutes as by the seeming impossibility of it. Detroit had 2n efficient machine tc undertake the interpretation of the Food Administration requests. The Visiting Housekeeper Association has been able to offer very practical help toward food conservation. This association employs eight wo- men as visiting housekeepers. During the year 1916-1917 they worked with 808 cases. Conferences and demonstra- tions are a part of their work. Thei pupils are often the poorest, who have been referred to them by charitable in- stitutions for instruction.

Willimantic, DRY BOTANICAL SPECIMENS. Dear Social Corner Sisters: I have stumbled into a way to préserve plants and I know it will be a good way to keep roses, and other flowers. Pick the flowers late in the evening, or early in the morning, but rather when weather is dry. Place ends in water, and let them remain in a cool place until the next day. When about to be submitted to the process of_ drying, place each plent or jlower between several sheets of blotting paper and iron with a iarge smooth iron, pretty strongly warmed, till all the moisture is dissipated. Colors may be thus fixed, which otherwise become pale, er nearly white. In cempound flowers, sometimes I find them with a stubvcrn form and rather lid as the Centuara. Some little art is required in eutting away the underpart; by which means they become almost incorporated with the surface. When this’ process is at- tempted, blotting-paper should be laid under every part excepting blossoms. I always keep preserved specimens in a dry place, such as ferns, etc. If I want to keep pamsies a few days only, after the stems have been in the wa- ter for two hours I remove, lay them on white paper for about an hour_ let dry, then dip steps in paraffine; they will keep fresh for two days. ‘By ‘dip- ping the step of a tomate in parafiine when green it will stay just so until it ripens.

The cooking of fish is important in order to make it appetizing.
