M. A. WILSON (Copyright. 19lt. bu tin. il. A. II tlaoii. ytll rlonts rttenei.) TOURING our intensive conserva- tion work Inst summer many of Us dried plenty of vegetables, with the thought in mind that we could utilize them during the winter. I have found that vegetables conserved by dehydration or drying occupy Jess space, keep better and are avail f ablo for use by simply soaking in water about ninety degrees Fahren heit, and then cooking them until , tender. Many delicious and appetizing dishes can be made from our store of dried vegetables. Vary the daily bill of fare in this way and also materially lower the high cost of living. Then the pleasure of par taking of these old-fashioned homy foods lends savor and variety to the ' meal during the cold stormy days. Spinach Pudding Soak one cupful of bpinach in water ninety degrees Fahrenheit for two hours and then place in a piece of cheesecloth and rinse in plenty of cold water. Place the spinach in si saucepan ana nau one-nan. cujuui of boiling water. Cook until ten der and then diain well. To the cooked spinach add Tivo onions, minced icry fine. One cupful of bread crumbs. One tablespoonful of butter. ,i One teaspoonful of salt. One teaspoonful of paprika. One egg. One-half cupful of milk. Mix thoroughly and then pour in wqll-greascd baking dish and sprinkle the top with grated cheese. Bake In a hot oven for twenty minutes. Serve with cream or tomato sauce. Spinach "With Hollandaise Sauce Prepare the spinach as given in tho above recipe and then, when coolied, drain well and mold the spin ach on a hot platter. Pour over it Hollandaise sauce and garnish with slices of hard-boiled egg. Hollandaise Sauce Four tablespoonfuls of salad oil. Two tablespoonfuls of vinegar. One tablespoonful of water.

This dish replaces meat for luncheon. A Few Pointers About Vegetables Do not oversalt vegetables. Never salt while cooking; too much salt not only toughens the delicate fibers but also neutralizes the valuable mineral content. Add just sufficient boiling water to cover and then bring to a boil Then cook slowly until tender. Do not cover the saucepan in which the vegetables are cooking. This con denses the steam which contains the THE WOMAN'S EXCHANGE TODAY'S INQUIRIES 1. Why ahould American women be. par ticularly Interested In Kvlan Ics-Bals? 2.
