Department of Agriculture The feeling of satisfaction tbat fol low good meal la due largely to t. fata which were either a part of 'e food Itself or were added to it for flavor, nutritionists say. We are told that the people of Europe who were short of fat during the war years felt hungry nearly all the time, even when their actual needs were satis fied. It Is fat that gives staying power to food, and fat, together with starch and sugar, gives to food Its energy value. Therefore the Bureau of Home Economics of the U. S. De partment of Agriculture calls atten tion wo to, the Importance of fats In low-cost meals, to make the meals more appetizing and also to make them "stick to the ribs." There Is some fat, of course. In al most every kind of food, whether an lmal or vegetable. But all the vege tables and some cuts of meat taste better to most people if some fat Is added, either In cooking or In serv ing, and that is where the so-called table fats come In Including butter, margarine and the salad oils. Butter, whlcb Is used to a greater extent than any other table fat, la Just now a remarkable food bargain. In fact, the price Is down to the lowest point In more than 30 years. To the good cook, the butter fla vor Is a desirable addition to almost any vegetable dish, and butter "Just makes" many desserts. Buttered beans, buttered fresh peas, buttered cabbage, buttered beets, buttered car rots these and other vegetables that are all good In themselves are far more attractive to most persons when served with melted butter. Long heating destroys the butter flavor and to cook vegetables wltA butter Is wasteful; therefore the bu reau advises adding the butter seas oning at the last minute before serv ing. Browned butter the browning must be done carefully, however, lest the butter burn gives a delicious flavor to cream sauce. Parsley but ter which Is melted butter with chopped parsley In It Is a favorite dressing for boiled potatoes, and lem on butter, or melted butter with lemon Juice, goes well with broiled fish. Young onions, boiled and serv ed on toast with melter butter, make an enjoyable supper dish. Holland alse sauce, when both eggs and butter are cheap, Is a special delicacy with fish, with greens, and particularly with the stalked or head vegetables like col lards, cabbage, cauliflower, bruasels sprouts or broccoli. The pies "that mother used to make" undoubtedly .had butter in the filling all fruit pies and apple pies, especially. Baked apple and brown betty, too, need the butter flavor to make them more inviting. The use of so much butter may seem extravagant. However, two level tablespoons, or about one ounce, will seaspn five or six liberal servings of cabbage, carrots, snap beans, beets or CULINARY RAFT..., By Estella Dorgan, Director ot Home Service, California Oregon Power Co. SHORT CAKES Shortcake usually means "straw berry shortcake" to most of us. And, truly. It Is delicious and unsurpassed. However, when strawberries are gone, or when we wish a variety of fruit there are various combinations which are delightful. The favorite Is the old-fashioned "biscuit" ahortcake. Then, there are some who like sponge cake for the foundation and I know of a simple graham cracker cake which Is especially fine with crushed blackberries. So, today we shall have "some of each."

Crush and sweeten berries to taste and let stand several minutes before serving. Serve plain or with cream. Fillings Besides strawberries, ffeah peaches, sUced oranges, sliced bananas, rasp berries, blackberries, cooked rhubarb and various combinations of fruits are all delicious served with short cake.

Salad oils are another means of adding energy value and staying quality as well as attractiveness to a meal. Under different trade names, cottonseed and corn oils are the most common substitutes for olive oil In salad dressings and are relatively cheap.
