Lewis Oregon a peach of a girl!” is a expression which young men use in regard to maidens who strike their fancy. \n d , if we recommend peaches as the economy of this month, we want it distinctly understood that we do not refer to the human, but to the canned variety. The human ones are not famous for saving you any money. D uring the last year 39S.000 tons of clingstone peaches were produced in their sunny, California home, and It is interesting to know that of this immense number, some 350,- 000 tons were canned. Naturally, this many tons w ill fill a huge num ber of cans, and when cans of eaches are so plentiful their price l likelv to be low. < Peaches, both human and canned, have their pretty color In their favor, but the latter variety also J J z popular E offers the convenience of being sliced or halved and alt ready t« serve. I t is universally conceded, we believe, that human peaches are sweeter and more delicious than anything else on earth, but deli cious desserts can also be made ol the canned variety. Here- is a de lectable one: A New Dessert MtU>a: Soften one-half tablespoon gelatin in two table spoons cold water. Beat one cup heavy cream, add one-fourth cup sugar, onc-fourth teaspoon vanilla and one-fourth teaspoon almond ex tract; add the gelatin. Chill. Chill eight canned peach halves.
