HE MARKET MET By the Bureau of Home Economics U, S, Department of Agriculture, and the. Woman’s Division of' the President’* Emergency Committee for Employment. ’ Family Food Guide Every meal—Milk for children, bread for all. Every day—Cereal 'in porridge or puddings/ Potatoes. 7 Tomatoes (or oranges) for children. A green or yellow vegetable. A fruit or additional vegetable. Mill for all.

Leas meat, fish o. poultry, or cheese. ~ Try serving the ordinary garden Varieties of vegetables in new and different ways is the timely cooking suggestion from the Bureau of Home Economics of the United States Department of Agriculture. • “ August is the month when so inany different vegetables appear on the markets and it is perhaps the month when many of them are cheapest, the bureau points out. Instead of preparing vegetables iMfthe routine : fashion the bureau suggests some new combination dishes that will add zest to flagging appetites. . More than 30 different ways of serving inexpensive vegetables are listed n the bureau’s new publication, “Aunt Sammy’s Radio Recipes Revised,’' which may be had' free on request to the bureau. This is not intended to be a complete cookbook but It contains 400 recipes which, if not all in the low cost group, are concerned mostly with moderate ratter than with high priced foods. Carrots, for instance, are one of the foods which nutritionists recommend for But many mothers And that their .offspring do not share the same enthusiasm for this attractive looking vegetable. The bureau suggests serving them fried with apples—a way in which all members of the family are sure to enjoy them. If properly .codked, all but very young children may —enjeythis dish. Then there are mashed carrots in- w-hich evaporated milk may be used if rich fresh milk is not available. • Cucumbers are inexpensive and plentiful right now. Most persons serve this succulent veyetable only as a salad but it is delicious when baked or fried. Egg plant is another vegetable that usually Appears in j only one form— fried, Stuff it some time, and serve it as the main dish of the meal, or scallop it with tomatoes and - green pepper, the bureau' suggests. | Potatoes, which are cheap this I year, needn’t always be' fried, baked, j or boiled. In tomato sauce they, take on quite a new air and the' com- j bination is particularly Apod from! a utrition standpoint. Raw potatoes! may be scalloped with cheese, and left over cooked ones may be utilised; ' in an au gratin dish. 1 As for the sweet-potatoes.- sweetpotato puff is new and not at all difficult to make. Scalloped with green apples or pineapple the sweetpotato—is- very different—from the | baked or candied sweetpotato. Sweet corn is at its best in many f sections of the country during August! but it need not always be served op the cob. And even if It. is. a little different flavor can be achieved byj leaving the last under layer of husk j on the ears while cooking. This] is a little 'culinary trick of the] —creoles whose enviable reputation j for fine cooking has. travelled far afield from the bayous of Louisiana. Left over corn on-, the cob may be mixed with tomato and cheese and served on toast —a dish as. tasty and easy to prepare as one -could w-ish for on a hot day. . _ There is also a mixed vegetable loaf to be found in the bureau’s cook hook that utilizes’ little oddg and ends that may be left over and which are not enough in themselves for another meal. Such vegetables may be similarly utilized in an au gratn combination.

WHEAT MAY REPLACE CORN IN DAIRY RATION B y G. A. Williams, Extension Dairyman, Purdue University. When prices justify the substitution, wheat may replace corn, either partially or entirely in the dairy ration. Many dairymen fed ground wheat to their herds last year with very satisfactory result*. In view of the presentfprices offered for wheat, considerable interest is centering around the use of wheat as a dairy feed. Corn is higher in fat and total digestible nutrients than wheat but is lower than wheat in digestible protein., Under most conditions, wheat medium finely ground, may be considered equal pound for pound to ground corn (cob removed). Care should be taken nbt to grind wheat too finely as it is less palatable and is more likeyly to cause digestive troubles.' ,' " .", _ A good grain mixture for winter feeding with legume hay and silage Is: 300 pounds of ground wheat, 300 pounds of ground oats and 100 pounds of a protein supplement, such as linseed oil meal, cottonseed meal ground soybeans or a commercial dairy feed, of 30 percent protein. A grain mixture with a little more variety is- 200 pounds corn meal, 200 pounds ground wheat, 200 pounds ground oats, and 100 pounds of a protein supplement. This may be used with very good results. It is necessary to increase the pro* tein supplement in either of the above mixtures unless a legume roughage, such as alfalfa or soybean hay is fed. Equal parts by weight of each of the above mentioned grains and protein supplement are needed when timothy hay or corn stovers are used a* roughage. ~ , The grain allowance should always he determined by the dairy milk flow per cow.„ For. winter conditions, one /pound of grain dally for each pound j of butterfat produced weekly may be considered liberal feeding. When I the test of the milk from each cow in the herd- is not known, one pound of grain may be fed for each two and one-half to three pounds of Jersey or Guernsey milk produced daily and the same amount of grain for each four |to flv£ pounds of Holstein, Ayrshlfe or'Brown Swiss milk.

ELKHART COUNTY -- -fIM FROM , With the opening date of the annual Elkhart county fair less than 20 days away, Secretary V. V. Swartz is busily engaged in -completing plans for the exposition. He has opened, a downtown office to accommodate the early lists. In order to care, for the large number of exhibits in the boys’ and girls’ club work, anew building is being erected at the fairgrounds. The "new structure, 50 by 80 feet, will be used to house girls’ club work display.. Last year the displays exceeded yhe space set aside by fair officials. Theaboys’ and girls’ club work exhibits, one of the biggest features of the fair, will not draw-all of the interest this year. With the adoption of anew policy by fair officals for the independent midway, an entirely new form of entertainment will be available. There will be new rides and shows on the midway that are not seen with the usual carnival company. . . From all indications the horse pulling contest for farmers of Elkhart county, to be’ staged again this year by the Spohn Medical company, will be one of the features. A number of farmers are conditioning their teams for the contest which will be under the direction of Allen Smoker. Fifty dollars in cash is offered to the winning team.

Another feature this year will be the free acts which will exhibit In front of the grandstand. Some unusual aerial acts are upder contract and are sure to please fair-goers. In addition to this there will be the nightly display of fireworks, which will exceed last- year’s spectacular program. A number of other novel entertainments have been arranged, including pony races, bicycle and tricycle races for children. 1 The livestock exhibits this , year promise to exceed those of last season. Arrangements are being made to have extra t.ents to house the stock. At least 45 calves are expected- to- be exhibited by members of the Beef Calf club; This exhibit is one of the high spots of the fair. The annual sale of the prize animals always attracts attention. Season tickets for the fair, which will be held at Goshen September 2 to 5, day and night, have been placed on sale throughoui the county. Season tickets sell for sl, admitting two persons to the fair day and night. Persons are urged to take advantage of this offer, and the admission prices at the gate will be-the same as usual. The 1931 fair, Secretary Swartz predicts] will exceed that of last year. Last year’s exposition was hailed as the best in history.
