Timely Hints By RUTH CURRENT State Home Demonstration Agent Do you keep your teeth and mouth clean by frequent use of dentrifice and mouth wash? Do you air your dresses and shoes after wearing them and before placing them in a closet with other garments? Always brush off your collar after combing your hair. Make an effort always to keep your nails clean. Keep from bit ing your finger nails. Always carry a clean fresh handkerchief. Always wash your hands and freshen-up before eating. Consider the weather before icing the cake, cookery experts advise, as a help in conserving wartime sugar. Moisture in the air on a damp or rainy day may make icings and other sweets soft and sticky. To offset this tenden cy, icings and other sirup prod ucts need to be cooked slightly longer on damp days. Vanilla and other extracts give a more even and lasting flavor to cakes and cookies if they are added to the fat when it is being creamed. Home economists give us this information after recent mixing and baking tests. Most flavoring extracts are essential oils which combine with and are held in by the fat. Flavoring should be put in with the fat in stead of being added last, as most recipes direct. Rationing Guide Processed Foods Blue stamps, Book 4—AS through V8 good Indefinitely.
