perk Up Your Menus With Peanuts
Many a housewife is still facing
t he problem of how to satisfy her
family’s needs when meat is still
so s hort. Chickens, of course, have
be-n in plentiful supply and in
farm homes a dependable main
stay. But we all like a change.
That’s when we turn to foods like
fis h and eggs and all the many
d ; shes we can make frdm cheese.
But how many of us are over
looking what might be called the
diamonds in our own backyard?
How often do we make use of our
p„ an ut crop, one of the South’s
fast growing industries? The Na
tional Peanut Council has come
lip with some good ideas for just
these moments.
Peanut Butter Souffh, for ex
ample, is an ideal answer for a
meatless dish. No matter if you
have never tried your hand with
a souffle you’ll serve a “wonder”
if you keep these points in mind.
First of all for a souffle to be good
it must be handled carefully and
quickly. So be sure to have all
the ingredients measured and
ready for mixing. Folding in the
stiffly beaten egg whites is the
really crucial point—it’s done by
cutting and turning the mixture
over and over very lightly, until
no mass of white is visible and
the mixture is light and fluffy.
Then it’s ready for the oven and
there must be no delay, or the
eggs will go flat. From the oven
to the table is the way it should
be served. So don’t let the family
dawdle —far better to round them
up in advance.
Here’s a good tested recipe for
your first venture in souffle mak
ing. Your family will go for its
rich nutty flavor.
Peanut Butter Souffle
2 tablespoons £at 4 eggs
6 tablespoons IVa teaspoons salt
flour Va teaspoon lemon
ji/j cups milk juice
s ,i cup peanut butter
Make a white sauce from the fat, flour
and milk, cooking it thoroughly. Re

Bake .10 to 60 minutes depending on size
and type dish in a 325° to 350° F. oven.
Serve immediately

Electrical Drying
Soft Corn Practical
1 Ohio Farmer Develops
Own Economical System
The problem of drying soft corn
!* s n °t the difficult chore it once
\ was, according to farmers who
have experimented successfully
i with fan-operated, forced air sys
| terns installed in their own cribs,
j Heat is not an essential factor in
I most installations, particularly when
j drying operations are conducted in
the fall or early spring. The dan
j ger in cribbing immature com is
that it may spoil before cold weath
er arrives to restrain spoilage proc
esses during the winter, or mold
during the first few warm spring
days.
Forced air drying is practical and
economical without heat in temper
atures as low as 50 degrees. High
er temperatures, however, speed
up and cut costs of drying opera- I
tions. Karl Mohr, Ohio farmer, for 1
example, reported having spent $lO !
for electricity to crib-dry 60 tons of
immature corn by forcing air
through it for 100 continuous hours
during a period when daytime tem
perature reached 80 degrees.
Mohr’s drying arrangement Is
typical of workable, successful I
types which farmers can install |

themselves. His 35 by 10-foot, tight
sided crib has a slatted floor, with 1
IV4 by 2-inch slats installed edge- J
wise and spaced five-eighths of an |
inch apart. A 42-inch fan, driven j
by a 5-horsepower motor, blows air |
into a closed tunnel extending under
the entire crib. Air, forced under
the crib, moves up naturally
through the slatted floor and out
vents in the top of the crib, taking
excessive moisture with it. Small
er fans and motors will work just
as well with less extensive drying
operations.
Mohr’s crib vents serve a double
purpose. In addition to being ex
hausts for air, they also serve as
openings into which corn is elevat
ed for storage in the crib.

Six pieces of scrap pipe, a few
lengths of scrap iron, a standard

this handy wheelbarrow for the
farm.

front end of the pipe frame and

Know Your Breed
Polled Hereford
By W. J. DRYDEN
Since 1902 American cattlemen
have developed within the Hereford,
®a naturally hornless
strain the Polled
Hereford. Since the
early work done by
Benjamin Tom
kins in 1742, with
English oxen, the
breed is now classed as one of the
greatest of beef cattle.
There are now some 200,000 on the
official records. When original horn
less bulls are mated with registered
horned Hereford cows, about half
the resulting calves are hornless.
First known exhibit of hornless cat
tle was at Omaha fair in 1898. To
day they take a leading part in ev
ery fair or show entered.
Vaccinate for Control
Of Sleeping Sickness
Horses should be vaccinated in
areas where sleeping sickness has
been a problem in recent years.
It is believed that the virus of the
disease is carried over from year
to year by birds, and it has also
been found that chickens can harbor
the virus, according to the Amer
ican Foundation for Animal Health
Mosquitoes and other blood-suck
ing insects pass the virus on to the
horses and human beings.

Aunt Bet is Mrs. Betty Wood

j Some kind member of the Perry
| Baptist Church helps her across
i her across the street from her

morning and she takes her place
in one of the front pews.
Aunt Bet practically built the
Houston Lake Baptist Church but
she is not able to travel out there
every Sunday to Sunday School
and church as she used to do in
her 1922 Ford.
Mrs. Woodard, widow of Judge
