Today the pnce humble spud touch ed the utterly unprecedented price of $3 a bushel wholesale. The market is full of other kinds of vegetables, however and if you can just forget about the potatoes for a while you will get along very well. For example, how would you like some rhubarb pie? Haven't had any for a long time, eh? It has made its appearance on the Omaha market. True, the stalks are a bit puny, but they have the regular color and the price is by no. means prohibitive, a goodly bunch being sold for the small price of 10 cents, one dime. This rhubarb is raised right here around Omaha, but in hot houses away from the wintry blasts. Cauliflower is plentiful and good So are turnips, carrots, rutabagas, spinach and ther vegetables. Tomatoes are on the market, also home grown and hot house grown. The usual supply at this time of the year from Florida has been cut off by heavy frosts down in that sum mery clime. Apples continuc-in unabated abund ance. Big, fine, perfect ones they are from the western orchards and their prices continue 16 was ever. They're a lot cheaper than potaoes.' Even oranges are cheaper than" po tatoes now. Fine navels range from 15 cents to 50 cents a dozen. Bananas are good eating, too, now and comparatively inexpensive, ad hering to prices around 15 and 20 cents a dozen. A dozen bananas weigh about four pounds. So four dozen weigh about as much as a peck of potatoes. Which makes bananas cheaper thair potatoes, too. ",. Strawberries, however, are not cheaper than potatoes. They bring about 50 cents a box from those that buy them. -j - Trade at the Washington Market OUR MOTTO "Honest Weight, Highest Quality and Low Prices" MEATS Fml Oi Tails, each 10c Fresh Sweet Bread, lb ...2Sc Fresh Pork Tenderloin, lb 35c Fresh Oz Tongues, lb 20c PYr.li Pork Hearts, 4b 12Vt Heavy Pork Loin., whole, lb 17V.C Heavy Pork Loin., eat, lb 1V.

PUBLIC MARKET Phono Douglas 2795 1GU HARNEY STREET )jne Economics $epartrner)t Gdued lyl X Gross rs$SS3 SSSTf Deep Fat Frying The American nation is often ac cused, perhaps justly, o using fried foods more frequently than is strictly healthful. The average housewife does not distinguish at all between "sauted" foods and "fried" foods. There, are two distinct differences however. One, the technical meaning of the words, is of lesser importance; the other, which concerns digestibil ity, is of more worth. Strictly speak ing, a "sauted" food is one which is cooked in a small amount of fafin a skillet; a "fried" food is one cooked in deep fat. The "sauted" food, contrary to general opinion, is the less diges tible. Thofeason for the greater, di gestibility of the fried food is that with proper frying, the food is immedi ately sealed on the outside by the great heat, so that no grease can pene trate to the inside. With the best of intentions and fare, a "sauted" food is -grease-soaked, a condition which materially hinders digestion. . In choosing a fat fot deep fat fry ing, we consider the flavor, the cost and the healthfulncss. The first two points are easily seKled; the healthful ncss depends upon the melting point of the fat and upon the temperature at which it smokes. A low melting point means greater digestibility, hence a very hard fat like beef suet is- less easily digested. The smoking point is of great importance because when fat smokes a chemical change occurs which produces a substance having an irritating effect upon the digestive tract. Lard and the commercial fats have very high smoking temperatures The most practical tests for degree of heat are the bread cube tests. If a small cube of bread browns in sixty seconds (a slow count of sixty), the fat is ready for all uncooked foods such as fritters and doughnuts; if a cube of bread browns in forty seconds, the fat is ready for cooked foods such as croquettes, which merely require heating and browning. The one ex ception to the sixty-second test is po tato chips or French fried potatoes, which require the forty-second test or even a shorter count, due to the cold water on them which lowers the tem perature immediately. A deep kettle is always preferable to a shallow one hrrause there is less chemical change in the fat. A frying basket of coarse wire is a convenience wnicn may De purchased at any hardware store. The food should be drained on crusher! brown paper after it is cooked. Fat may be used many times if it is ptop erly. cared for, that is clarified and strained after each using. To clarify, fry a few slices of raw potatoes in the fat at the end: then strain through doable cheese cloth. . - Far . croquettes, : fish, oysters, meat, etc., a fat-proof coatine of flour, or better, of egg and bread or cracker crumhs is used.
