"Wilson, food expert d the Evenino Public IjF.doeh, In a lk on food economy at tho food fair In First Regiment Armory. Mrs. Wilson yesterday scored tho boarding housewives as had patriots nd largely' responsible for making a )umor of EiUortagc into n reality. She iirgcd upon them the need for tho ut most economy in buying and using Cinder nrenent conditions. "Buy from week to week. Don't run to the store at the first rumor of a possible shortago and buy nupplirn enough to last for months. Hoarders are bad patriots. If food has to be rationed, stand in line and take only your own share," Immediately following her talk Mrs, Wilson started bread baking , with Mrs. J. C. Ballagh, of Uvcrbrook, as tho novice. At tho point where the dough is set aside for three and a half hours to rise, ono woman in the nuilicncc asked for some quick recipe for making a threo hdur bread. "No practical baker knows a recipe for making bread in three hoars," said Mrs. Wilson. "It may loo well and taste well but it is not n perfect food, for it has not had time enough to thoroughly glutenize. There is no short cut to perfect bread making." In her appeal for economy, Mrs. Wilson gavo n demonstration of fire lesi cookery as a saving In both food and fuel. "At lea?t 35 per cent ot tho food snbstnnco of meat is saved bv the use of a firelcss cooker, she said. "Not only Is there the quantity economy but a cheaper cut of meat may also be used. When a cheauer cut is cooked in n stove tho cooking is done at too high a temperature and in too short a time. Cooking at n temperature, just below tho boiling point is what makes the tissues tender, and this kind of cooking can bo done in n fireless cooker." One of those who helped nt the gro cers' supper was J. A. McAnally, who was in one of Mrs. Wilson's 'navy classes and learned her methods of pro viding meals for hungry sailors at a cost of not more than forty cents a day. Today the dcmoustinton will include .pastry making, tireless cookery, bread making, cheese novelties j and fancy fruit roll.
