res Memorcaiic Iain Bellefonte, Pa., October 20, 1916 : The Woman Motorist Question. Answers This The November “Woman’s Home Companion” has an automobile de- partment conducted by a woman mo- torist and in the November issue she answers some questions. of them: “From ‘Just a Fellow’.” “Can just a regular fellow ask you a question—and get an answer—or does he have to be a woman motorist ? Here is one | 1 . . ! delicacy or a confection, Nuts are Nourishing Food. i The sharp winds of autumn are bringing in their train not only sparkling cheeks and increased appe- tites, but a harvest of rich food value. | However, it frequently happens that | we do not appreciate sufficiently the | things that are close at hand and in- | expensive, and this seems to be true | of our native nuts—hickories, chest- | nuts, butternuts, black walnuts, fil- | berts—which may all be found in the | woods and along the road. | Until recently always regarded as a nuts are at | | last taking their place as true food, | Anyway, I’d appreciate some hints on | how to increase the mileage of my | ) : nuts furnishes as much nutriment as tires.

Thus, three-inch tire, sixty ete. “Stuff small cuts which go through the thread with tire dough and leave over-night without use or vulcanize them. The small cut of today is the blow-out of tomorrow. Water rots the fabric, sand cuts it. “Don’t start or stop abruptly. Noth- ing tears a tread loose from the fab- ric more than viclent starts and stops. “Be sure wheels are in line. Let a competent repair man do this, because front wheels are normally ‘toed in’ when stationary and only get ‘lined up’ in motion. Put front wheels not infrequently ‘toe in’ too much, which means heavy wear on treads. “Don’t drive in ruts, and never on car tracks. Nothing cuts a tire up quicker that driving with the wheels on rails. “Don’t overload your car. Four people where three ought to sit means wear on all tires. “Don’t carry spare tires uncovered. Hot sun ‘cures’ the life out of tires. “Don’t let tires stard in oil. Oil takes the life from rubber. “Don’t drive with tight chains. They must be lcose enough to slip around the tires. “Don’t drive fast on a stony road. Stone bruises mean broken fabric threads and blow-outs. “Attention to these pecints sheuld mean at least a thousand miles, and perhaps more to any tive.” Crowded Roosts and Cool Nights Bad for Chickens. Egg production is lowest in fall and early winter, at which season matare fowls are moulting from the moult. Pullets hatched during March and April to the middle of May will, if properly reared, begin to lay during October and November and continue throughout the winter. Pullets that start laying in July or August will stop when fall comes and will not re- sume laying until spring. Pullete must be depended upon for eggs during the time of high prices. The laying flock should be kept closed in the house during the winter, should never be frightened, and feeding should be done at a regular time each day. Poultry authorities at the Penn- sylvania State College recommend that pullets be put in the permanent house soon after September so as to become accustomed to their new quar- ters before starting to lay. When first placed in these quarters they must be carefully watched to prevent crowding on the roosts at night or roosting in the windows and catching cold. The practice of allowing birds to roost in trees or similar places dur- ing chilly nights shoulc be discourag- ed. The Wife Had the Will. “My husband was a confirmed smoker when I married him a year ago, but today he never touches the weed.” ; ~ “Good!” said one of the group. “To break off a life-time habit like that requires a pretty strong will.” “Well, that’s what T’ve got.”—San Francisco Bulletin.

It is no longer a joke tha: a handful of pea- a pound of meat, or that a dozen al- | monds are sufficient for half the food | supply of a meal. Most nuts consist | of protein and oil. The exceptions are that group to which the chestnut | belongs, and which consists almost entirely of starch. The poorer people of foreign countries have shown us its | = possibilities as a stuffing, boiled as a | vegetable or preserved as those deli- | cious “maroons.” Although nuts may have been con- | sidered indigestible, these unpleasant | results have been due generally not | to the nut itself, but to the manne» in | which it was eaten. Of course, they will prove a tax if eaten on top of an otherwise heavy meal, or when com- not thoroughly masticated. But chil- dren should have nuts, and plenty of them, and should be taught to chew them thoroughly, and in case of some nuts, especially almonds, the tough outer coating of the nut itself should be removed by blanching in boiling water. It is also an easy matter to grind bread. The nut bowl should be kept heaped on the side table, as an other- wise hasty, inadequate meal can be made substantial by the addition of | . ating by the pressure of a screwing walnuts, almonds or filberts. The pro | tein of nuts is exactly what growing children should have, and it is not an | extravagance to keep a supply on; hand, even if native ones are unavail- | able. The old-fashioned msthod of crack- | ing nuts with the edge of a flatiron or | a hammer resulted not only in loosen- ed kernels, but in bruised fingers, so it | has always been considered that nut- cracking is an unpleasant, untidy pro- ceeding, better to be done at some other place than the family table. | This criticism, however, does not stand before the up-to-date crack:ng | devices, which make it possible to do! the work both efficiently and pleasant- | ly at the table. One of these is a | large scissors-like gripper, which has enough leverage to crack the nut so that the meat comes out whole. Another novelty is a bowl of polished wood with a permanent sheller, oper- handle, which bears down on the nut, thus bursting it and allowing the nut meat to fall out whole. The same de- vice comes with a-clamp, which can be fastened to the edge of the table. For kitchen use the latter is most practical and far superior to the old simple lever “cracker.” If the housewife who thinks that nuts are a luxury or sweetmeat will once try making nut dishes, she will be surprised at their number and va- riety. When meat palls or when its price is soaring too high, try a nut roast. A nut hash is much more at- tractive than meat hash. Peanuts can be combined in numberless ways and a most delicious cream puree made, using peanut butter. Use chestnuts for fowl staffing or as a vegetable accompaniment to beef- steak and you will be sarprised at the delicious, novel piquancy of this inex- pensive dish. It is far wiser to use nuts as food than to combine them: in cake and sweet dishes. Of nut salads there is a great variety, as apple, celery and peanut, banana and peanut, chestnuts and orange. cabbage and walnut. It is much cheaper and wiser to crack nuts at home than it is to buy the shelled nuts put up, asit fre- quently happens that these nuts are shelled under most insanitary condi- tions, in immigrant homes, ete. Never make the mistake of buying “mixed” nuts, as it is almost unfailingly true that the “mix” contains a larger pro- portion of the cheaper nuts than of the better ones. ——-They are all good enough, but the WATCHMAN is always the best.
