Meals at Low Cost
Kveryone is interested in it now.
Of course "it" is our very familiar
friend, the H. C. o I-., the high cost
of living. One interesting result of
this present situation is the now fa
mous Diet Squad of the Chicago
Heallh Department. Dr. Robertson,
health commissioner, promised to
feed his people on the sum of 40
cents per person per day. To most
people, numerically speaking, the sum
Kf 40 cents per person per day is pro
ibitive. However, Dr. Kobertson
found after a week's trial that 33 2-3
cents was sufficient to provide very
palatable and satisfactory meals.
Kven that sum, though, is impossible
for many people to meet. . To a large
number 20 cents per person per day,
or even IS cents per person per day,
is all that can be allowed for food.
Meals at less than the last-mentioned
cost are bound to be very
monotonous, even if satisfactory from
the nutrition standpoint. One must
draw so largely from a few cheap
foods, notably rice, molasses, salt
pork, skim milk, dried, fruits, corn
meal, crackers, macaroni, split peas,
boiling beef occasionally, and cheese.
The diet cannot be attractive and is
very apt to lack in mineral matter,
die importance of which cannot be
overestimated.
About two years ago the American
School of Home Economics in Chi
cago published a Bulletin entitled
"Five Cent Meals," which would suit
a IS-cent per person per day dietary.

At the next stage of dietary costs,
the 20 to 25 cents per person per day,
my readers may be interested in the
work done recently in the Advanced
Cooking classes of the Central High
schoal. The girls have been prepar
ing dinners at a cost of 10 to 15 cents
per person. One interesting thing
about these dinners is that the food
value in each case has been fairly ac
curately calculated to meet the re
quirements of a man engaged in ordi
nary occupations (not heavy physical
labor). The average man requires, ac
cording to the standard of Dr. Sher
man of Columbia university, 1500
heat units of calories for a dinner. In
addition to heat units, the girls cal
culated the heat units which come
from protein, the body-building lood.
The following are some of the menus
prepared, with the amount of heat
units furnished:

Eggless Egg Dishes
With eggs now costing from forty
to sixty cents a dozen and threats of
still greater advances, it may be well
to give a few recipes which do not de
mand too many of them. At break
fast time, somehow, the valuable egg
seems almost a necessity, though
many try to use scrapple or sausage
or some other dish as a snbstitutc oc
casionally. However, when the fam
ily craves for eggs why not serve
them scrambled, adding a tablespoon-
tul of finely grated breadcrumbs to
each egg, a fraud that is hardly dis
cernible and which makes the eggs go
almost twice as far. Another eked
out egg dish is made as follows:
Eggs and Tomato Kedgeree: Have
ready a cupful of boiled rice per per
son and allow one tomato per person.
Stew and sieve the tomatoes. Allow
one egg to each person and scramble
egg, tomato and rice with salt and
pepper just as for scrambled eggs.
Kedgeree: This is a blessed dish,
as one-half pound of cooked, flaked
and boned white fish with six teacup
fuls of boiled rice and two eggs beaten
up together, well seasoned and made
hot, makes a fairly substantial dish
for six persons.
Savory Toast is not costly and if
properly made is very good. The
bread (stale) should be cut quite half
an inch thick and in four-inrh squares.
Toast crisply on both sides, spread
with butter, wifh deviled meat or
bloater paste. Make very hot and
serve.
Ham is a very excellent breakfast
dish, served either cold or as toast,
which is very appetizing and simply
Lmade.
nam toast: ine nam should he
minced very finely, and only a little
fat used. To every two tablespoonfuls
of the meat add one tablespoonful of
crumbs or well-boiled rice, and mix it
with some good, brown gravy, or a
white sauce. Spread this mixture on
the buttered toast and cover with
breadcrumbs, brown and serve very
hot.
Rice added to rissoles, or mince, is
a decided economy, and most people
like it, though in a recent issue of an
English paper I read of a wounded of
ficer who sent a note down to the
kitchen on his tray, saying, "Madam,
why do you put rice in my fish ris
soles?" The answer, which came
promptly, read, "Sir, it perhaps has
not occurred to you that England' is
at war!" ' . I
Batter is inalienably associated with
eggs in most of our minds, yet it) is
possible to make a very excellent bat
ter for fritters and for meat by the fol
lowing recipe:
Eggless Batter: Four ounces flour,
a pinch of salt, one-quarter pint tepid
water, one tablespoonful of salad oil.
Mix the oil and water well together,
then very gradually add the flour and
salt, sitted together, beating thorough

Delicacies on Omaha's
Market Are Low-Priced
Navel oranges, grapefruit, nuts, figs I delicately-flavored filbert known, so
and dates, all holiday necessities, are big that thirty-six of them make a
the same price in Omaha markets
this year as they were last.
This is a startling statement in view
of the steady upward trend of nearly
everything edible. But the fact re
mains. Moreover, these things have
never been finer and some of them
never so fine as they are this year.
Particularly is this true in the case
of grapefruit and oranges.
"The finest grapefruit ever seen in
the Omaha market is what we have
this year," said one big store manager.
"It comes from Florida and it is
chock full of juice. In spite of its
fine quality and rising prices of most
other things, grapefruit remains the
same as last year, 5, 10 and 1254 cents
each. Navel oranges hold at the pop
ular prices of many years; namely, 20,
30 and 40 cents a dozen."
Nuts of all kinds, English walnuts,
filberts, almonds and Brazil nuts are
excellent at 25 cents a pound. There
is one special brand of filbert, how
ever, that commands 60 cents a
pound. It is the biggest and most
ly between each addition. Let the
batter stand for at least an hour be
fore using. If you wish to use this
as a sweet batter for apples, etc., add
a teaspoon ful of powdered sugar in
stead of the salt.
This batter can be used to eke out
meat that would otherwise be insuf
ficient for the number of people.
Meat in Batter Cut the meat into
small dice, dust with pepper and very
finely powdered herbs, mix in with
the batter and drop by tablespoonfuls
into very hot fat to fry. Drain well on
absorbent paper and serve on toast.
vThe following is a delicious and
economical dessert wh-ch can be made
very much more nourishing by the ad
dition of a little whippro cream.
Apricot Cream Use dried apricots,
wash them, soak until soft, and sim
mer with a little sugar and a spoonful
or two of water. Sieve and mix with
an equal quantity of cornstarch mix
ture. Place in a china souffle dish, and,
if desired, cover the top with whipped
cream. For the cornstarch, use one
half ounce of cornstarch, half a tea
spoonful of sugar, according to the
sweetness of the fruit Mix the corn
starch in a little of the cold milk.
When smooth, heat the remaining
milkSind stir the cornstarch into it by
degrees. Add the sugar, and boil for
three or four misutes, stirring all the
time. If a little essence of apricots be
added the taste is improved.
Baked Currant Pudding One-half
pound of currants, one-quarter pound
of dripping or lard, one-half , pint of
milk (a little more if necessary),
grated nutmeg, one-balf pound of
flour, three ounces of brown sugar.
one teaspoonful of baking powder, one
egg
Sift the baking powder andjlour
twice and rub in the fat. Add the nut
meg, sugar and currants. Beat the egg
with the milk and stir in the dry in
gredients. Put into a well-greased
baking tin and bake in a warm oven
for one hour and a quarter. Sprinkle
with sugar before serving.
Of cakes and scones there are
plenty which do not need eggs,
though I do not suggest for, one
minute that cakes made with egg's are
not nicer than those without. Still,
if well mixed and baked, the eggless
kinds are not to be despised, especial
ly if eaten when fresh. When making
eggless cakes it is a good plan to
steam them for half the appointed
time of cooking and then to bake
them. Cooked thus they are less dry.

Good-to-Eat
Christmas Presents
If you have neither the time nor
inclination to fashion Christmas gifts
with your needle and find those in
the shops, which appeal to you as
suitable for your various friends, too
costly, do not despair, for there arc
ever so many good-to-cat presents
which are not expensive and which
will be welcomed with delight wher
ever they go.
Maybe you have a friend who has
enjoyed your pet fruit salad with
honey dressing; send her a basket
containing the ingredients to make it
six bananas, three oranges, one cup
of chopped nuts, a head of lettuce,
and a jar of the dressing with a recipe
for making it. A Christmas touch

Figs and dates hold to last year's
prices. Ihe supply, nowever, is lim

from California and the crop has been
unequal to the demand, as the usually

kept out on account of the war.
Potatoes and apples are still num

are up near $2 for a bushel and
the western apples, which arc on the
market in goodly quatities, bring $175
to $3 a box. Apples are here also from
Missouri, Virginia and Iowa, selling at
around $5 a barrel or 50 cents a peck.
Fresh vegetables from the south are
abundant spinach, cauliflower, beets,
lettuce, cabbage, cucumbers, green
peppers, turnips, carrots, beets, on

cake as a present, but it meant so
much baking the day before Christ
mas, in order to have it fresh, that it
was impossible to get it done. Yon
can make the following cakes a week
before Christmas and they will keep
perfectly: Rub together half a cup
of butter and one and half cups of
honey and blend with them the un
beaten yolks of three eggs. After
thoroughly beating, add five cups of
flour sifted with two teaspoons of
cinnamon, one-half a teaspoon of salt
and one and one-half teaspoons of
soda dissolved in two tablespoons of
orange-flower water or plain water.
Beat this well and fold in last the
whites of the eggs whipped to a stiff
froth. Bake in tins and ice before
sending, with a frosting mafe as fol
lows; Mix one' egg yolk, one tea
spoonful of lemon juice, the grated
rind of an orange and a tablesDoon-
ful of the juice and allow it to stand
.ii hour, then strain and add confec
tioner's sugar until thick enough to
spread. A cake that will keep a
month if wrapped in waxed paper is
made by blending well two-thirds of
a cupful of butter and two cupfuls of
sugar, then adding two-thirds of a
cup of -grated chocolate, one cupful
of warm mashed potatoes, one cupful
each of seeded raisins and chopped
nuts, half a cupful of milk and two
and one-half cupfuls of flour, in
which two and one-half teaspoonfuls
of baking powder have been sifted;
four eggs, yolks and whites beaten
separately; half a teaspoonful each
of ground cloves and nutmeg and a
full teaspoon of cinnamon.
"I love to see a neat row of fruits
and vegetables in glass jars on my
preserve closet shelves," said an old
lady to her cousin. This was a sug
gestion eagerly seized upon, and a
jar each of peas, small beets and snap
beans were given a Christmasy ap
pearance by covering the tops with
wax paper, fringed and tied about
the necks with red and green ribbon
and a spray of pine. Jars of any
kind of fruit are not to be despised
sun-preserved strawberries, pears,
peach marmalade or preserves, apple
butter, spiced currants, grape juice
are all gifts that will gladden the ap
petite. Mary H. Talbott in Woman's
World.
Deviled Lobster,
Take the meat from a lobster and
sprinkle with a little cayenne pepper.
Chop it very finely, then add a des
sertspoonful of chutney, a little
melted butter and one tomato, cut up
small. These must be stewed over the
fire, stirring till they boil, and add a
little mixed mustard. Have ready
some little squares of fried bread, put
some of the deviled lobster on each
and sprinkle over a little finely chop
ped parsley.
