Why Not Take the Ice Cream Freezer Along
DELIGHTFUL FAMILY AUTOMOBILE PICNIC
(Prepared by the United States Depart
went of Agriculture)
Part of the fun of the week-end
motor outing is the picnic lunch If
the drive cuvers much distance there
- may be two out-of-doors lunches It
Se a good idea to keep a special basket
or picnic box on band with enamel or
paper plates cups knives forks
spoons bread knife can and bottle
openers salt pepper waxed paper and
paper JO apti I n o ready for the call of the
open Preparations can be quickly
and easily made if these essential ac-
cessories are at band In one place
There Is no hard and fast rule that
all sandwiches must be made before
starting Put a loaf of bread a pat
of butter and whatever filling you
have available Into the picnic kit
When a halt is made for lunch bread
may be cut by one person buttered by
another spread with filling by a third
and in the midst of much sodability
the sandwiches will be produced as
fast as they can be eaten When sand-
wiches are thus as it were made to
order one stops to think whether an-
other Is really wanted or not When
boxes of sandwiches are beought from
home the tendency Is to keep eating
them while they last Most people
eat more bread In this way than usual
and with other starchy food carried
because of convenience the meal be
comes unbalanced
Why not take salad Ingredients
along suggests the bureau of home
' economics? Lettuce and celery
wrapped in damp cloths tomatoes and
cucumbers can be carried in good con-
dition Put the mayonnaise in a screw
top jar and'the butter in another If
the day Is very warm set them in a
box or bucket of chopped ice People
sometimes take an ice cream freezer
If there Is room in the car Butter
and milk will keep splendidly beside
the Ice cream can
You need not have bread sand-
wiches at all Split rolls or biscuits
answer the same purpose or unsweet-
ened crackers may be used By way
of aemert cup cakes and cookies are
' easier to handle than layer cakes and
pies Figs prunes dates and raisins
satisfy the desire for something sweet
that may be eaten with the fingers
SERVE SHORTCAKE
TO EACH PERSON
-
Attractive Way Is to Have
Indiviclacd Cakes
4
ft' ipartd by the United States DePert
meat of Agriculture)
irtu attractive way to serve strawben-7
dhortcaks Is to have what the
Chinese call seach-person" portions
Use your own recipe for biscuit dough
but make It somewhat richer this
usual One-third to one-half cupful of
fat to each three cupfuls of flour is a
Individual Strawberry Shortcake i
good proportion A little sugar may
be added if you wish Cut out rounds
rather larger than ordinary biscuits
about three to three and one-half
Inches In diameter and roll them thin
enough to bake one on top of' the
other Brush butter on the under
round before aetting the upper piece
on It and when they are done the two
eectione will eplit apart easily The
oven should be hot (450 degrees
Fahrenheit) for Individual tohortcakes
suggests the bureau of home co-
Prepare the strawberries at least
an hour before you need them Dull
them and wash a few at a time In a
pan of cold water skimming them off
the top so that any sand sinks to the
bottom Do not allow them to remain
In the water or they will lose flavor
Select the largest and most attractive
berries for the top layers sprinkle
with sugar and set aside Cut up
some of the berries to be used on the
lower layers mash them lightly to
start the Juice flowing and sprinkle
with sugar Butter the shortcake
while hot Add whipped cream sweet
ened and flavored with vanilla just at
serving time or pass It in a bowl all
each person is served with the short
cake Some people prefer this type of
shortcake without cream
R
while almost any freNh fruits are ex-
cellent Try taking waRhed straw-
berries with the hulls on Use the
hulls to hold the berries as they are
dipped in powdered sugar and eaten
If you make ao fire in the open you
can have toasted frankfurters or ba-
con or a steak or chops Fresh-caught
fiat may be cooked in a skillet over a
camp lire too Don't forget to take
the proper precautions for extinguiRh-
ing any Brea you make In lieu of
building a tire a hot drink such as
cocoa or coffee may he taken In a
vacuum bottle Ice-cold milk may be
put in these bottles for the children
If you are likely to have two road-
side meals provide something differ-
ent for each just as you would at
home 'A small cooked ham is a good
addition to the lunch basket for the
second meal or some American
cheese or hard-boiled eggs or any
canned meats that slice conveniently
Don't forget the can opener however!
Automobiles sometimes develop trou-
bles at awkward spots where no food
can be obtained and it is a comfort
able feeling to know that you have
the next meal With you whether you
need It or not Extra bread and but-
ter may not be amiss
The bottle opener too must not be
left at home You will surely need grape
juice or ginger ale before the day is
over Orange juice and milk are good
for the children if the grownups are
having coffee Carry drinking water
from home rather than risk drinking
from strange springs or wells Leave
one or two drinking cups out of the
packed-up lunch kit with the water
and a box of graham crackers for the
children Driving in the open air is
likely to whet their appetites and 1
mid-morning cracker with milk or-
ange juice or water may be counted
as an extra meal rather than "piec-
ing" Sweets salted nuts chocolate
bars and other thirst-provoking foods
often nibbled at between stops are
best omitted
Your picnic spot will undoubtedly
be chosen for its charm and beauty
When the meal Is over pick up all
papers and other refuse and burn or
bury them Leave the woods as you
would like to find them
JELLIED PEEL IS
TEMPTING DAINTY
Can Be Made From Grape
Fruit Oranges or Lemons
Ofrongtod by the United States Deport
Inuit of Agriculture)
Yon can make jellied peel from
grapefruit oranges or lemons Most
people like the flavor and size ef the
pieces from grapefruit best when the
peel Is te be eaten as a confection
Jellied orange end lemon peel in
often used in place of citron in fruit
cakes and plum pudding In fact all
of these peels are good for thls pur-
pose and for garnishes for deserts
Stored In tin or glass containers
the jellied peel should keep in good
condition for two or three weeks so
It Is safe to make a supply a little be-
fore Christmas in anticipation of the
holidays and on the chance that you
may need a few jars or bores of the
peel for last-minute gifts The totted
States Department of Agriculture
gives the following directions for mak-
lag all kinds of Jellied peel:
You will need for each 5 ounces of
peel 1 cupful (7 ounces) of granulated
sugar for sirup 2-3 cupful of water for
sirup or enough to cover teaspoon-
ful of salt cupful granulated sugar
for rolling strips Thick soft un-
blemished peel from smooth fruit
should he selected Light-colored
grapefruit skins are best Orange
skins may be bright or pale in color
but not russet or spotted The peel
should be weighed rather than meas-
ured Cut the peel Into strips one-fourth
to one-half Inch wide Parboil three
times for half an hour each time Use
a quart of cold water for this cover
the pan partly and drain off the wa-
ter after each boiling The strips
should then be tender fondle them
very gently to prevent breaking
Place the water salt and sugar for
the strap In a saucepan about all
Inches in diameter and ntIr until the
sugar Is dissolved Then add the
strips of grapefruit peel carefully ar-
ranged parallel to each other to pre-
vent beIng broken when turned Cook
rapidly for about 20 minutes then re-
duce the heat and continue to boll for
about 20 mlnutes longer or until the
sirup is all absorbed Great care must
be taken at this point that the sirup
does not seorch

Prophecy Fulfilled
There are several lakes or streams
In different parts of the world with
which are connected strange stories
One is Lake Chrissie four miles from
Ermelo in the eastern Transvaal
When the Dutch emigrants from the
Cape first settled In the Transvaal an
olU Kadir medicine man predicted that
some day the lake would become dry
and then the Boers would lose their in-
dependence This prophecy was fut
tilled when the Boers were subju-

YOUNG GOSLINGS
' NEED GOOD CARE
When the goslings are raised In
brooders they must be closed up at
night for the first two or three weeks
After that they may be allowed to
come and go if their pen Is safe from
dogs and other prowlers Their runs
should be so arranged that therwill
have Plenty of grass - - !
By the time the goslings are a
mohth old they will have reached a
size which Is comparable to small
hens and may then be given wide or
free range or be kept confined In
yards where grass is available If the
grass In their yards gets eaten down
It is necessar3 to supplement It with
waste from the garded lawn clippings
or similar green stuff On such feed
the goslings will make good gains but
the addition of a littlesgriiin is advis-
able Water for drinking Should always
be available for the goslings While
they are small the vessel should be
protected so they cannot get into it
While the weather Is cool It Is well
to provide water only for drinking
After the weather settles and becomes
warm there is no harm In giving them
water so they can splasp around in It
Stale bread or a masb comprised of
corn meal and shorts are the feeds
most often used to supplement the
grass rutionof little goslings Others
use a more complete mash similar to
that fed to chickens which contains
animal food skim milk or some dried
milk products
The profit in raising geese comes
from the fact that they are great for-
agers and make the bulk of their gains
on feed that is otherwise unsalable It
Is a mistake to try to raise them
largely on a grain ration which in-
creases the expense besides they do
not do so well as when given siore
forage
What Good Hen Consume
During Course of Year
wbat one good lien eats in a year
was shown by the poultry department
of the Minnesota College of Agricul-
ture in an exhibit at the Minnesota
state fair Of scratch grain she con-
sumes 20 pounds cracked corn 10
pounds oats 10 pounds burley Her
laying mash which is fed in a hopper
totals 8 pounds each of corn meal
ground oats wheat bran wheat mid-
dlings and beef scraps with the addi-
tion of 1 per cent charcoal and 1 per
cent salt She eats 4 pounds of oys-
ter shells and 2 pounds of grit fed
separately in a hopper Her feed bill
totals 81523 a year
If she eats she must more than pay
iher board bill says the poultry de-
partment and they showed the yearly
egg production of four different hens:
1 pays board and little more 2 pays
board and 90 cents 8 pays board and
$180 4 pays board and $170

Poultry Facts
11§00-0-4040-0n0-0-0-6400t 0014
Milk is a valuable feed for hens
Dens should have vigor and good
size before they lay
Ducks or geese should be killed by
sticking In the back of the mouth
Fiord luck may be an alibi but It
Isn't always an excuse
Giving the chicks some form of milk
at the Wirt stimulates their appetites
and promotes growth
It's a good plan to start culling the
flock with the chicks by killing the
weak sickly ones that will never
repay their coat
The way brooder chicks act In the
evening is a good guide as to the
beat If too much they will stay
away from the hover and if too little
they will crowd up near the stove
Free range away from the poultry
yard should be provided with clover
for pasture whenever possible It is
the best known way to get good
healthy vigorous pullets for winter
laying
The main reason for the variations
In the prices of eggs and dressed poul-
try Is the variation In their quality
Exercise generates beat and pro-
motes health Make the poultry flock
work for their grain by feeding It In
a deep clean litter of straw
Eggs for hatching should not be
kept longer than 10 to 14 days before
setting They should be held at a
temperature between 40 and 50 de
Fahrenheit and turned once
each day
klany'people make a mistake In not
getting the brooder house thoroughly
warm before putting in young chicks
Eggs from a well-bred uniforp flock
of some one breed will be more uni-
form in color and should bring more
per dozen than a mixed lot
If you have surplus milk by ell
means give It to the hens If It sours
or is In the shape of buttermilk from
the churn so much the better Milk
la a good food besides being a great
kealth promoter

DR W D CALDWELL
AT THE AGE OF 83
To Dr W B Caldwell of Monticel
lo 111 a practicing physician for 47
years it seemed cruel that so many
constipated infants and children had
to be kept constantly "stirred up" and
half sick by taking cathartic pills tab-
lets salts calomel and nasty
While he knew that constipation
was the cause of nearly all children's
little 114 he did not helieve that a
sickening 'purge" or "physic" was
necessary
In Dr Caldwell's syrup Pepsin he
discovered a laxative which helps to
establish natural bowel "regularity"
even if the child is chronically consti-
pated Dr Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin
not only causes gentle easy bowel
movement but' best of all it never
