"How dear to'our heart is the old
silver dollar, when some kind sub-,

and all the strange things which to

eagle, the arrows below it, the stars
and the words with the strange things
they tell; the coin of our fathers, we
're glad that we know it, for some
time or other 'twill come in right

How to "lighten" bread flour
to use for cakes, pastry, etc.
U.&M
j
r
"T is not necessary to purchase .
both a bread and a pastry flour.
By using quarter cup ot Kings-
ford's Corn Starch to three-quarter
cup of any good flour the percentage
of gluten is decreased and the starch
content increased so that home prepared flour will make a
lighter and finer grained cake.
If your recipe calls for 4 eggs to l quart of mil It use 3 eggs, and for
the egg omitted use half tablespoonful of Kingsford's Corn Starch.
For smoother, glossier gravies and sauces use a dessert spoonful
of Kingsford's Corn Starch, instead of a tablespoonful of wheat flour.
For lighter, flakier biscuits, piecrustsand muffins, makeyour pastry flour
with one-fourth cup of Kingsford's to three-fourths cup wheat flour.
A little Kingsford's Com Starch dusted on top if .yies before
icing prevents tha frosting from running off.
A quarter teaapoonful of Kingsford's put into each of youf salt
shakers win keep the salt from caking.
