C Tuesday October 1 1918 foucauld"' and you didn't recog nize it as plain fried fish. Now comes the American housewife's chance right here in Scotland Neck Our Uncle Samuel probably at Mr. Hoover's advice keeps urging us to make varieties of food in the home kitchin which are usually made in large factories equipped with complicated machinery. For example he gives recipes for Neu- fchatel and cream cheese in No. 960 of the Farmer's Bulletin PECIAL NOTICE WHY EVERY FARM SHOULD BREAD ITSELF IN 1919 O (By R. W. Freeman, District Farm Demonstration Agent Wilson N C. 1. Wheat is the most importait of all foods the staff of life for all humanity. 2. Ttye world's railable re serve was1 practically exhausted when the 1918 crop came on the market. 3. The allied and neutral na tions must be fed and the reserve stock of wheat must be built up a gain to avoid a calamity tJiat will surely follow a crop failure. 4. We should release every pos sible bushiel of the commercial wheat supply for our so-ldiers and our allies. 5. We should relieve transporta tion for hastening" essential war work. 6. Its "safe farming" to pro duce all food and feed at home. 7. Wheat by-products, such as :,Uaw bran and shorts produced on the farm are gfreatly needed to leed the increased live stock that the Government is asking for. 8. Wheat (and other small grain) acreage enables you to prac tice better crop rotations. 9, Part of your acreage in wheat helps to solve the distressing labor problem by distributing the avail able labor throughout the year. 10. Finally we have no assurance of having any flour or other wheat products unless we produce the wheat at homei O LOTS OF FUN IN THE KITCHIN o . "Ricksha we' This was originally a nickname for1 it dins on a French bill of fare. It wasn't bestowed in compliment either. . - It is Anglo-Saxon for "quelque chose," and some of its popular equivalents .are more ' familiar to us. as ' ' gini era cks, ' ' ' " thingum- docks aim mucuses. , The practice of writing memi cards in French is due to the grim necessity that faced the French half a eentury ago. Impoverished by military defeat they had to learn the art of making table de licacies out of next to nothing. Even in the humblest households cookery became a science and French names for articles of diet passed into international currency Eventually the French housewife - found she could dispense with leg erdemain in the kitehin. The name filone wa enough to get by. She gave you something called Poissons au chateua de Roche- and it is only one out of many. The government tends increas ingly to depte industrial plants to war purposes and we may see food factories enrolled in bulk for national service. Here is where necessity should teach us many ingenuities in the home circle. It is better to fight laughing than crying and like the heroic French women American housewives can make the rigors of was less severe by learning to do clever tricks with simple things. Accomplish ments like these will not lose their , value when peace returns, i o NOTICE TO BUILDERS O The Government's Imperative need of materials and labor re quires that practically all new con struction which cannot be classed as a jdirect or indirect war necess ity be deferred until we have won the war.
