HONEY AND MOLASSES CAN REPLACE SUGAR

NO INTERRUPTIONS, PLEASE

BROTHER OF LOCAL MAN

DIES IN EVANSVILLE

“Sugar rationing need not cause the homemaker too much concern,” says Miss Bernice Kohlmeyer, extension nutritionist of Purdue University, since home grown sweets, honey and molasses, can be substituted in many ways.

Eugene J. Walker, 65, of Evansville, blacksmith at the Holtz foundry of that city, died suddenly while at work at 9 o'clock Wednesday morning. He is survived by his wife Rose; five sisters, Mrs. George Mitchell of St. Petersburg, Fla., Mrs. Walter S. Hale, Pittsburg, Kan., and Mrs. Walter Strange, Mrs. Bennett Whitehead, and Mrs. John Bauer, all of Evansville; two brothers, Walter B. of San Antonio, Texas and William of Dale.

“Honey and molasses are excellent sweets to include in the diet,” adds Miss Kohlmeyer. Honey requires practically no digestion and supplies quick energy. Molasses does more than provide a sweet; it is a good source of iron.

Funeral services will be held in the morning (Saturday) at the Schaefer’s funeral home with continued services at Holy Trinity Catholic church in Evansville. Burial will be in St. Joseph’s cemetery in that city.

Both of the sweets can be used in a variety of ways. They can be used for sweetening candied vegetables, salad dressings, quick breads, frozen desserts, baked and stewed fruits, custards and puddings, sandwich fillings. Quite a different flavor is given cereals, when served with honey or molasses.

He had been in the hospital since Oct. 1, 1941, after being struck by a car at Covington, Ky. Surviving are his wife, Lillie Weller Edelmaier, native of Dale, and two daughters, Esther and Alice, of Covington. He also has a brother, Albert of California, a former resident of Dale. He was the son of a German immigrant who came to America to escape restrictions of worship. He was ordained into the ministry in 1907.

Honey or molasses may serve as part or all of the sweet in cakes and cookies. In the average recipe one-third to one-half of the sugar can be replaced by these home-produced sugars. Since both honey and molasses contain water, the liquid in the recipe needs to be reduced. When honey is used, decrease the liquid onefourth. If all honey or molasses is to be used, it is generally preferable to use a recipe which has been satisfactorily developed for these sweets.

Four nephews are her only near relatives.
