Evening Republican, Volume 17, Number 207, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 30 August 1913 — Plea for More Hygienic Gravy. [ARTICLE]

Plea for More Hygienic Gravy.

“Stray Shots,” the weekly paper issued by the inmates of the military prison at Fort Leavenworth, offers this mild suggestion to the cook; “If the gentleman intrusted with the task of making brown gravy to accompany the T-bone steaks served at this great culinary center, will take the trouble to read a few lines in any old cook book he will discover that it is impossible to use hot water and produce lumpless gravy. If he has any spark of sympathy in his soul he will realize that uncooked flour Is the bosom friend oi indigestion. A little regard for the great regiment that feasts here should furnish comfort in the consciousness of duty well performed.”
