Secret of Cake Making
I .1 . U A . . 1 .1 t n n T liniV
j mrt rinj our iiii.miu ......
ZV I to bake delicious cake
sV , i it
. ' . i or not. her are a few rules
that are ensentlul:
1'se the beet material. Po-called
cooking butter and stored ecus will
make pour cake, and let no economical
one persuade you otherwise.
What la known as soft A sugar
makes a cake of nicer grain thsn
granulated or powdered sugar. In
measuring stint rather than heap up
the cup or the batter la coarse
grained.
Baking puwdnr should be measured
by gently rounding, not heaped or
flat, teaapoonful. With sour milk
recipes us baking soda snd cream of
tartar rather than baking powders.
Never guess at measurements. Most
recipe glvs exact proportions which
a good cook sometimes modifies. A
cup, when not defined, usually means
the stone china kitchen coffee cup
that holds a little more than half a
pint.
Th richer the milk the better the
cake. More than la called . for Is
often permissible to keep the batter
from getting too thick.
Htlntlng flour Is the secret of good
cake. Few realise this, as can be
told by two persons making up the
same recipe with results totally dif
ferent from the cook who is heavy on
flour. It Is safe to allow a quarter
to half a cup less flour on most
recipes.
Judgment Is important In cake mix
ing. Flours differ tn heuvlnens and
eggs in size; therefore to keep the
batter from being too stiff see that It
runs easily from the spoon, yet Is
not "runny." Thinning must be done
before baking powder and whites of
eggs are In.
Have all Ingredient ready before
beginning to mix a cake. Once started
It should go Into the oven quickly.
One mixing bowl and two smaller
ones for eggs will be needed: also a
wooden paddle and a wire rg beater.
81ft flour twice before measuring and
put Into batter through sifter.
Get ready pans before starting cake.
There is but one sura way to prevent
sticking psper the bottoms of pans
and grease it, not the pan, which Is
only buttered on the edge. Many per
sons use lard for greasing, but butter
never tastes.

Lemon and water taken early each morn
ing has become a common drink among
women who value their complexions. Noth
ing keeps the digestion in better condi
tion. Since sugar Is not used, there Is no danger
of auld, even for gouty and rheumatic
subjects.
Io not use too much lemon. The Juice ot
a third or half the fruit la enough. To
keep the cut lemon fresh for several days
Is something of a problem.
Cut off only the section to he used and
Bnueexe the Juice from the cut portion.
The rest can be turned, cut side down. In
a cup or it ran be put tn the same posi
tion on waxed paper This should be large
enough to fold over the lemon and keep
out the air
Treated In either ct these ways, a enion
will keep several days even in hut weather.i
I o not stand hi a warm closet, nor where
the fruit will frerxe.

Papering la no trouble If 10 cents
worth of yellow wrapping paper Is
bought and cut In leisure moments to
fit your various shaped pans. Keep
In an airtight box in the kitchen
closet.
A good cake baker make sure that
her cake pans are not used for other
purposes by keeping them under lock.
In the same place have all the utensils
needed and there will be no delay.
Here also have an extra supply of
baking powder, flavoring extracts,
chocolate and the special sugar used.
lo not get more than five pounds at
a time of the latter, and see that It
is rolled and sifted before using.
If the mixing spoon Is a wooden
frame, beating is expedited. If one of
these spoons cannot be bought, any
carpenter can make one.
In mixing a cake, cream butter and
sugar together not with the hands.
It can be don just as well and more
hyglenically with a spoon. Butter
should be soft to save work. This
does not mean melted, which make a
heavy batter. Beat to a light cream.
Next put In th well-beaten yolks of
eggs, stirring vigorously. Add the
flour and milk alternately, Just stir
ring In and not beating.
Mix the baking powder with a little
flour and add after the flavoring.
Last stir In the whites of eggs beaten
so stiff they adhere to plate when
turned upside down. They should be
stirred In with least possible motion.
When a cake Is done It will have
drawn slightly away from the edges
of the pan. It can also be tested by a
clean straw. Do not bake more than
a delicate golden brown. If the oven
is too hot snd the batter browns
quickly, cover with a paper. Turn the
cakes upside down on a clean towel
or sheet of waxed paper. There will
be no sticking It bottoms of pans have
been papered and greased properly.
Otherwise, if cakes stick put wet
cloth over bottoms of pans for a
minute.
Small cakes stick less If the pans
are flat-bottomed and the sides tall
and rather straight. After greasing,
flour well, then shake off superfluous
flour. Hun knife around sides before
turning cakes out.
Do not Ice until cake are cold.
Boiled white Icinga are preferable to
the uncooked, and a soft fudge to
uncooked chocolate and sugar.

Last week's Half Price Sale was the bluest in this store's history, and tomorrow we expect
history to repeat itself in another sale so extraordinaiy that you will marvel how such styles and
qualities could possibly be sold for so little money. Just think of the high class merchandise we
have to offer, compared with others. "Kuppenheimer," "SteinbloCh," "Schloss Bros.," 'Hirsch.
Wickwire" and "Society Brand" clothes. Head and shoulders above all competition.
Classy clothes that are in a class by themselves. Handsome garments carefully tailored,
swell fitting, unexcelled quality and at their original price splendid values, now at just
half price. They are the greatest values ever offered in Omaha. This is not a little hand

PUBLICITY BILL IS READY
Legislature to Be Aked for Appro
priation to Advertise otate.
GOVERNOR RECOMMENDS PASSAGE
Moaer to Bo Expended Vndrr lt
Direction of the Stat Board ot
Agrlroltare To Hlr a ;
Manasrer.
Tt.iia Tnav hiwnmn known here of the
bill which will be Introduced Into the legis
lature next week appropriating Via.tm to
establish a state publicity and Immigration
bureau. Th bill Is backed by the governor
who recommends It specifically and by the
state Association of Commercial clubs.
th. Kahrmlii Pre sb association and the
advertising clubs of the state. One hun-
drded and eighty-four Nebraska news
papers are also behind the bill and the
State Board of Agriculture and various
influential business men's organizations.
The appropriation Is to b expended under
h irtinn of the State Board of Agri
culture, a legally constituted body, whloh
shall hire a competent newspaper UTUr
w-lih some experience In legislative pub
licity work. ' together with one assistant.
With this force the board of managers of
the State Board of Agriculture expects to
gather the statistics now collected by th
deputy labor commissioner, but In no way
to interfere with that department gather
ing the needed industrial statistics used In.
fulfilling the duties of that department.
The new bureau will also be expec.- to
furnish definite Information to inqu; les
about Nebraska, not In a general way, but
in a specific way practically placing itself
In a position to show the value of every
section of land In the state and Its pos
sibilities of production. Thousands of such
inquiries are now being received and with
out funds the State Board of Agriculture
and the commissioner of labor are attempt
ing to answer them the best they can.
Fallow Other states.
The committee v.-Ilicn has worked out the
plan for the state association of commer
cial clubs consists of B. R. McKelvle. editor
of the Nebraska Farmer; K. M. Merwln,
editor of the Beatrice Sun, and Will A.
Campbell, manager of the Omaha Commer
cial club publicity bureau. These men have
definite information from many states, one
ot them havltg visited the capital of every
state In the west and looked up what Is
being done to give the world the proper
kind of Information about the various
States. They say Nebraska and Iowa are
now doing the least and all Iowa is work
ing for an appropriation of I100,(m to do
th work Nebraska proposes to organize
for $25,000.
The reason given for desiring the bureau
to the Nebraska Btate Board of Agriculture
Is that it Is becoming more and more the
duty ot such boards In various slates to do
such work and the general public looks
to the Nebraska State Board ot Agriculture
for such information. This Is shown by
the enormcbs number of Inquiries received
by the hoard. '
The board of agriculture has about loO
members for Its annual .meetings in touch
with every part of the state, all public
spirited men who give their time freely and
would lend their influence and assistance
to such a bureau more readily if it were
under their board of managers. .

More people this week Joined the army of
people who prefer the canned vegetables to
the southern importations. It was neces
sary to do so If one wished any vegetables.
It Is not nyrely that the price of the
southern stuff has soared, but th supply
Is short, very short. In the market today
there Is, to be sure, some of th green
stuff, but It Is short both In quantity and
quality.
Meat prices, likewise, promise to be
higher if the winter weather holds. It Is
possible to get the cheaper cuts of beef,
and these may be used to good advantage

In the luxury classification Is a wonder
ful grape which comes from England. In.
market parlence It Is the "English hot-
house grape." The fruit Is dark red In
color. Each grape la large and meaty and
the bunch Is truly beautiful to look at. As
a bunch weighs about two pounds and as
the selling prlco is $1.M a pound, It will be
readily understood why It Is more usual to
admire the appearance than It Is to com
ment on the taste of the grape.

Country butter sells for 28, Si and 32 cents
