THE BEE: OMATTA. THURSDAY. JUNE 28, 1917. 9 IJP June 27 Play Bridge for Groceries. All good bridge players, give heed! In these days of high cost of gro ceries you may put your ability to use by attending a bridge party where eat ables will be given as prizes. The in genious idea popped into the head of Mrs. A. V. Shotwell, who is in charge of the Tuesday afternoon bridge game at the Field club, that instead of offering silk hose and knitting bags as bridge prizes each week, she would give a sack of flour, a ham, a basket of fruit, or something of similar na ture. Now all who have heard of the plan are looking forward eagerly to the day when these valuable articles will be the prizes. , Not long ago a group of Chicago fashionables played for such stakes and enjoyed the scheme immensely. "Oh, what a grand sack of flour," the first prize-winner will exclaim as she has the bundle carried out to her limousine. "But not half so good as my prize ham,' a friend will say as she displays her reward. Mrs. Shot well has not yet set the day on which these prizes will be played for, but it will be in the near future. Mrs. Joseph Barker won as first prize at the game Tuesday a Sheffield cheese and cracker dish. Mrs. Wil liam Kierstead has a new patent leather purse to show for her prow ess and Mrs. J. W. Battin received a pretty pair of white gloves as third prize. The fourth prize was a set of linen napkins. Ten tables were filled with players, who played until after the rain was over.

Fruits and vegetables may be dried satisfactorily by cleaning, slicing and exposing to the sun or to the air out doors, or the process may be hastened by placing in trays lone piled on tup of the other) over a stove so that the 1. Plan for warm air will pass upward through them. Drying may also be done by use of the oven. These processes sometimes discolor the fruit or vege tables, and in many instances cause deterioration of flavor and quality due to changes which take place in the material during the process of evapor ation. Sun or outdoor drying is usually a long process and there is danger of loss by souring. This process is not very sanitary because of exposure to dust and sometimes to flies. Drying by use of the oven is slow, as is also the use of hot air dryers which are placed on top of stoves. Dr. H. C. Gore of the United States Department of Agriculture has per fected a process of drying which is very simple. It is based upon the re moval of saturated air from around the sliced vegetables or fruits, thus al lowing unsaturated air to come in continuous contact with fhe articles being dried. The process will remove approximately 90 per cent of the mois- Fig. 3 'Homemade fan for use with gasoline engine. ture from any vegetable or fruit in twenty-four hours or less.

Captain Allin is stationed in San Francisco. Mr. Fred W. Clarke arrived Monday from Douglas, Wyo., to be the guest of his parents, Mr. and Mrs. F. W. Clarke, until after his marriage to Miss Stella Thummel next Tuesday. Mrs. Lloyd Burdic is expected to arrive today to visit with her mother, Mrs. Alfred Darlow, until Saturday when Mr. Burdic will join her and they will motor to the Minnesota lakes for a short vacation trip. Events to Come. Miss Mary Megeath wilt entertain at luncheon at the Country club Fri day for Miss Stella Thummel. Women of Happy Hollow club, who gathered Tuesday afternoon to dis cuss the plans of the entertainment committee, decided that the only one of the weekly affairs to be inaugu rated at present will be the bridge luncheon. The first of these affairs will be given July 5 and will continue every other week after that. Personal Mention. Registering at the Hotel McAlpin from Omaha during the past week have been: Mr. E. F. Cunningham, Mr. C. B. Williams, Mr. C. H. Shames and Mr. W. S. Doty. Mrs. H. O. towards went to Chi cago the first of the week to meet her son, Robert, on his return from Cornell. The two returned to Omaha Monday. tiirougji' for this wignatnre V it' ; Fig. Mm Fruits and Vegetables aration have something to do with the rapidity of drying. It is easy to understand hnw this process works when we consider how rapidly roads dry after a rain when there is a wind, or how much more rapidly clothes dry in a breeze than when the air is miiet. Bv this process. 'practically every vegetable or fruit making drying trays. growing in the garden or orchard can be satisfactorily evaporated. The Apparatus. Light trays with wire screen bot toms and with wire screen at one end Fig. 2. Trays a are used as evaporation pans. The size of these trays will depend on the ap paratus used for forcing air though them. If electricity is available an elec tric fan is recommended, the size de pending upon the amount of evaporat ing which is to be done. Blasts from air circulating systems in buildings can be used or fans may be attached to gasoline engines. A simple plan for such a homemade fan is shown in figure 3. The cost of operating the electric fan will depend upon tiie rate charged for electricity. The charge in Lincoln is approximately 5 cents a kilowatt hour. For drying fruit and vegetables and for general household use we rec ommend a twelve-inch fan, though a smaller fan will do this work well. Five cents worth of electricity, at the above rate, will run an eight-inch fan about forty hours, a ten-inch fan thir ty hours or a twelve-inch fan twentv four hours. If the rate is 10 cents the cost would be just twice as great. For a twelve-inch electric fan, a tray eighteen inches wide, three feet long and two inches deep is recommended. The end to be placed next to the fan should be left entirely open, and the trays should be stacked, one on top of the other, from six to eight of them in a pile. Figure 1 gives details for making such a tray. Ordinary pearl wire window screen should be used. It can be bought in such width that the selvage will be at the top of the enclosed end. Do not use the painted screen or the cheap galvanized screen.

After cleaning they should be slired thin. The slicing process may be hastened by the use of a rotary siiccr. A small rotary siiccr which will cut slices of any thickness from one thirty-second of an inch to one-half inch can he pur chased for about $2. These slicers are similar to the bread slicers or dried beef slicers ordinarily used. In slicing asparagus, rhubarb or string beans, drying will be hastened by slicing lengthwise first and then crosswise. This exposes more of the cells to the action of the air currents. The vegetables or fruits are spread thin over the wire screen tray, the tray are stacked and the fan set in motion at the end of the trays as shown in figure 2. Certain vegetables or fruits will discolor unless specially treated. Ap ples ordinarily turn dark when dried. This can be prevented by dipping the sliced apples in a 2 per cent solution of ordinary table salt and placing them immediately on the trays for drying. This solution can be made by using 2Yi level teaspoons of salt to one quart of water. Storing. After a sufficient amount of mois ture has been removed the dried fruits ud tans in place. and vegetables can be stored in any receptacle which will keep away in sects of all kinds. Glass or tin jars or cans with tight-fitting lids make good containers. Perhaps the cheapest method of storing, if receptacles are not already on hand, is by means of paraffin fiber containers. These can be purchased In quantities, costing from ', to 5 cents each in slices varying from a pint to a gallon. A list of com panies manufacturing fiber containers and slicing machines will be sent upon request. The old method of storing by placing in cloth or paper bags and hanging in a dry place will usually give fair results. Cooking. In cooking evaporated fruits or veg etables it is essential to remember that they must be soaked in cold or tepid water before they are cooked. Ordi narily, soaking over night does them no harm. The object is to get back into the cells the water which has been taken out by the process of evapora- Since the sale on Mid-summer Hats, Monday and Tuesday, the Drahos Luttig Hat Shop has received a line ot Garden Hats suitable for the Gar den Fete next Saturday.

In soaking evaporated fruits or vegetables, it is well to use only a small amount of water just a suffi cient amount to properly soak them and still leave enough for cooking. Ordinarily fruits and vegetables should be cooked in the same water in which they are soaked, for the water will contain some of the pleasing flavors and valuable nutrients. In the case of vegetables or fruits which have a strong or bitter taste, such as turnips, a more pleasing flavor may he se cured by changing the water while cooking or soaking.
