In the country, large kitchens are tiore or 1pm necessary, because at certain seasons food must be prepared In considerable quantity to provide for the extra helpers In the farm work. Frequently It proves practical and con renlent to use the kitchen ns a family eating place, rather than to carry food 1 if J 4.- I 4 Dining Table at On Side of Kitchen. and dishes some distance to the din ing room. The kitchen range makes the room very comfortable and It Is not necessary to Increase the heat else- :s:;:::x:;::;::: g Apples Are Used in $ g Tasty Hot Dessert A bot dessert In which apples dec orate as well as flavor can be cooked In a skillet or In a heavy baking dish I In the following way, says the bureau of home economics of the United States Department of Agriculture: H cup butter or der. other fat. 4 tip. salt H cup sugar. 1 1 tip. vanilla. H cup sifted tort' wheat flour. I Up. baking- pow- H cup milk. t to 4 flrm-fleihd apples. 1 tap. cinnamon mixed with cup sugar. Cream the fat, add the sugar, well beaten egg, and vanilla. Sift the dry Ingredients together and add alternate ly with the milk to the first mixture. Spread a thick coating of fat on the bottom and sides of a square or ob long baking dish or a very heavy pan. Tare, quarter, and slice the apples thin, spread In a single overlapping layer on the bottom of the baking dish, sprinkle with the mixture of cinnamon and sugar, and add another layer of apples and the remaining cinnamon and sugar. Pour the cake mixture over the apples. The batter is rather thick and may need to be smoothed en top with a knife. Bake in a Tery moderate otch (300 to 325 degrees Fahrenheit) for 43 minutes. Loosen the sides of the cake, turn it out care fully, upside down, and the top will be covered with neat layers of trans parent apples. Serve hot with hard sauce or whipped cream. I Peaches-Mousse Combination Popular 0KXX00XKX t , - Mousse With Canned Prfprl liy th United Stai Di'Mrtmcnt ol Agrlcultui. ) WNU tt-rvuf. Peaches and ireum In combination become a dessert de luxe when the cream Is frozen. A mousse, or Ice cream frozen without stirring, Is espe cially good for the purpose since mousses require somewhat heuvler and richer cream than ordinary he cream, made by churning In a freezer with a dasher. Peach melba Is the desxert made by putting the Ice cream Into large halves of canned peaches, ami it Is a very pretty and attractive dish, but sometimes a little unmanageable, on the plate. For that reason you may prefer to slice the peaches Into convenient sections find serve them, with a little of the Juice they were canned In, as a same or garnish. Vanilla Is the most satisfactory flavor for mousse that Is served with a fruit iauce, unless some of the fruit pulp Is mixed with the cream and frozen also. To make plain vanilla mousse, frozen either In a refrigerator with a me chanical unit or by packing In h e and salt, the following rerfpe from the Imreau of home economics of the United States Department of Agricul ture may be used : 1 cup double crfam. 6 lbs. suKur. 1 cup rich milk or 2 r,H whiles, thin (ream. 1-18 tfp. ff.lt. 1 tp. gelatin. H tep. vanilla. Soak the gelatin until soft In a little of the milk or thin cream. Heat the remainder, and pour over the gelatin. Add the sugar and stir until uixsoived, where In the house, If much of the family activity goes on lu the roomy kitchen. Iviwever, from the home maker's point of view, the main con fident, . n, In having family meals In the kitchen, Is the step-saving feature. The old-fashioned way was to put a large table right In the middle of the room. This was apt to make more work than It saved, for the housewife had to walk around It constantly In petting meals and doing other tasks. It always seemed to be laden with odds and ends about the time It was wanted for the next meal. A much better plan when a large kitchen does double duly. Is to group the dining ta ble and chairs at one side of the room, .and bring the work centers close to gether en the other sides. Placing the dining table to one side does away to some extent with the temptation to use It as nn extra kitchen table. The bureau of home economies of the rnited Stales lVpartment of Agri culture has made a study of conven ience In the kitchen, and emphasized the need of grouping work centers to route the tasks In logical order. Prep aration of raw foods, cooking, serving, j and clearing away and dishwashing, nre the four activities that follow each other every day, and several times a d:iy. In most kitchens. Compact cen ters for these Jobs should therefore follow the same order around the room from left to right, for the right-handed worker. The centers for serving and clearing away and dishwashing should be nearest the dining room and close together. In this case they will be nearest the dining center. A glimpse of the sink on one side of the picture shows that this plan has been met In a satisfactory way In the farm kitchen that was photographed. The large closet Is near both the sink and the table for putting dishes away or for setting me table. OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOC000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000 Fairy Tale One day as the fairies were playing in the beautiful garden, and were talk ing to old Mother Earth, they heard some little whispers down In the ground. "Oh, we are so anxious to come up," was one of the little whispers. "Dear me," said one of the fairies, "what does that little whisper mean, Mother Earth?" Oh, that Is one of those Impatient little radishes. They cannot bear to stay in the ground when the nice spring weather is here. "Besides, they think they're very beautiful, and that red Is so bright and gay after the long winter of snow, and the early spring days of slush and mud. "They are really very proud of them selves, and now they are becoming so anxious to get up that I suppose I must let them very soon." Then, from not far off. some other whispers came up through the earth. They were quite like those of the Peaches for Deitert. and put the mixture aside to chill. Whip the double cream. When the mixture containing the gelHtiti has thickened slightly, beat It to Incor porate air. Add the vanilla, and fold In the whipped cream and the well beuten egg whites. The egg whites re duce richness, Increase volume and im prove texture. These, proportions will make over four cupful before freez ing; or. If the egg whites are not used about three cupful. 0000000000000000000000000 o 1 Helps for Housekeepers O OOOOOOOOOOC OOOOOOOOOOOOOO Milk which ha soured rapidly Is best for cottage cheese.

The fairies decided this time it was something else besides an impatient little radish whispering. "We want to come up," said the sounds. "We can just see above the earth, and we like the looks of every thing on top of the ground. "Our families have often told us how nice Mr. Sun Is and Mr. Spring Mr. Ciant Who Was Walking By. Halo, and thut when we came up and looked about us we were admired right away by real people. "Then we were taken up and put on a lovely dish and something soft and cool put over us they culled It dressing, and then we were eaten up.' The fulrles laughed hard st that, for they were not used to hearing whis pers such as: "Then we'll be eaten up," sold In such happy tones.

This made the grentest excitement In Falkland. Tut didn't those little radishes grow and grow until they were ready to be pulled up first. And they were so proud! Never before had they been at a din ner party given by the fairies. They certainly were looking their best so red and bright, and tender and young. Old Mr. Giant thought It a great Joke that the radishes had wou the race In this way. And then be hud a dinner party. At the first porty the treat was rad lshes, and at the second, It was let tuce!
