Many cooks sometimes use honey to
give their old recipes new life and
flavor. When you cook with honey,
remember a part of it is water. You
can't substitute honey for sugar,
measure for measure, without making
some other change in the recipe. For
one thing, you'll have to use less li
quid than the originul recipe calls
for.
For honey cakes and quick breads,
mix the honey with the liquid called
for in the recipe. Also, be sure to bak
at the lowest temperature possible,
so the honey won't scorch.
For gingerbread, brown bread, and
steamed puddings, you can use honey
in place of molasses. In that case, the
home economists say you can substi
tute them, measure for measure. If
you use honey, be sure tu omit the
soda that you would use with the mo
lassos. Honey takes up moisture as it
stands. That may not be so good
with some candies and frostings. But
it helps to keep your fruit cakes and
steamed puddings moist.
Be sure to store honey in a place
that Is dry and fairly warm. Don't
put honey in the ice box. Low tem
peratures may make the honey crys
tallize and become cloudy.

potatoes make excellent hog feed,

Honey Offers Cook
Some Delightful
Ideas For Meals
If you're looking for a good place
to use honey, you don't need to go any
farther than your breakfast toast or
waffles. Hot biscuits, dripping with
honey have been a morning delight
since way back. Honey can also be !
used to sweeten fruits, beverages, and
cereals. Honey sauce, with nuts or
orange juice and orange peel, is good
on ice cream. For a sandwich filling,
use honey which has been creamed

No NEED to look so surprised, Lady!
Far from going up, electric prices have been
coming down steadily! Within the past three
years, while the cost of living has climbed about
, 22, the average price of household electricity
' has dropped about 9l
And this downward trend in the price of elec
tricity has been going on for years. For ex
ample, if yours is an average family, you're
getting just about twice as much electricity for
' your money today at you did 15 year ago.
That's good news to your budget, isn't it? And
meanwhile, you're enjoying the use of lots more
electric appliancea.
DON'T WASTE ELECTRICITY JUST BECAUSE IT ISN'T RATIONEDI
r, ' - -- -
Why is electricity so cheap? Because experienced
business management has made it so. Your
electric company has been on this job for years
and those years of experience count! They
all add up to friendly, dependable service at
low costl
