1IEDF0RD MAIL TRIBUNE, MEDFORD, OREGON, FRIDAY, JULY 8, 1932. PAGE SEVEN Some Fats Needed in Diet Even in Midsummer Days By the Bureau of Home Economics, U. S. Department of Agriculture Midsummer, you may say, is no time to be talking about fatty foods. Cool drinks, green salads, or ripe watermelons seem much more sea sonable. If, however, you bappen to be living on a diet limited to the foods that cost the least (and not many of those) you will have to eat some ft to add the necessary cal ories and give staying power as well as palatablllty to your meals, says t,he Bureau of Home Economics of the U. 8. Department of Agriculture. Moreover, It Is probable that we ) depend on some of the cooking fats, even In summer, to a greater extent than we realize. What Is more use ful, at any season, for giving flavor to vegetables than bacon fat and salt pork? For an agreeable summer meal a vegetable plate, for example who does not relish, along with the boiled, creamed, baked or raw foods, something panned or fried? A fresh fruit pie, or a blackberry roll, Its pastry rich In "shortening," adds more fat to the summer diet. Dr. Louise Stanley, Chief of the Bureau of Home Economics, Is one of the home, economists who "sets great store" by salt pork for season ing. "Salt pork," she says, "is a food too little appreciated by most house wives. It keeps easily and Is avail able In any home at all seasons. It has many different uses which add variety to cooking, and It contributes needed fat and flavor to the diet at small cost. Its concentrated form, good flavor, and varied uses make it invaluable on a camping trip. It packs easily, keeps under all usual '. conditions and adds variety, Inter est, and flavor to camp cookery." Doctor Stanley calls attention es pecially to "the homely old-time method of parboiling salt pork, then dipping the slices In corn meal and frying," which results In tasty, crisp slices and serves as a basis for mak ing delicious gravy. Serve with hot biscuits or corn bread, with the gravy over hominy or rice, wltb some fruit for dessert, and a more satisfactory upper menu is hard to find. Salt pork is the characteristic con stituent of all chowders, which are often summer dishes. Diced and fried out, the salt pork furnishes fla vor and crlspness and adds to the nutritive value, making the chowder a whole meal In one dish. It Is good In soups, especially bean soup and pea soup, "and then." says Doctor Stanley, "there are stuffings. You must taste salt pork stuffing to ap preciate It. The fat Is tried out and the pork browned slightly, bread crumbs and seasonings added, and you have a stuffing especially desir able in veal or lamb shoulder. Regu late the amount of bread to the salt pork in accordance with the fatness of the meat." i Bacon fat, for frying or for sea t soning, crisped bacon broken in small bits these give a smoked flavor along with the tang of the salt. A stripe or two of bacon on a plate of boiled potatoes, poke greens, fried toma toes, or sticks of raw carrots or cu cumber Is by no means too fat a m?al for summertime. Fried tomatoes, fried onions, fried potatoes anything, almost, from the frying pan; tastes better for the flavor of bacon drippings. But lard now is the cheapest fat for use whenever tjhe bacon flavor Is not desired. It is true that fried foods, because of poor frying methods, have come Into some disfavor. But frying, the specialists of the Bureau of Home Economics point out, gives a texture and a flavor not obtainable by any other method of cooking. In deep fat frying, temperature Is the biggest factor, and the next factor is the preparation of the food for frying. Whatever fat Is used, use as little fat as possible It will be better when f fried. A higher temperature Is need ed for frying foods already cooked (croquettes, potato cakes) than for uncooked meat, vegetables, or fruits, because the purpose is merely to brown the outside and heat them through.

Remove from the water and pat with a clean dry cloth. Heat a kettle of deep fat hot enough to brown a small piece of bread in 60 seconds (about 375 degrees F.). Fry about a cupful of potatoes at a time, remove from the fat when golden brown, drain on absorbent paper, and sprinkle with salt. Serve at once while hot and crisp. Apple Pie 4 to 6 tart apples (more If small, double If small green apples) Pastry cup sugar teaspoon cinnamon teaspoon salt 3 tablespoons butter Pare, core, and slice the apples. Line a deep pie pan with pastry, spread a layer of apples over the bottom, sprinkle with a mixture of the sugar, cinnamon and salt, dot with butter, and repeat until all are used. Add the top sheet of pastry. (See Plain Pie Crust, below.) Put the pie in a moderately hot oven (400 degrees F.) for 10 minutes, low er the temperature to more moderate beat (37S degrees F.), and bake the pie for 30 to 35 minutes, or until the apples are tender and the crust Is golden brown. Plain Pie Crust 1H cups sifted soft-wheat flour 1 teaspoon salt 5 or 6 tablespoons fat About a tablespoons water Mix the flour and salt and work In the fat with the tips of the fing ers or a fork or biscuit cutter. When the flour and fat "grainy." add the water slowly, aiu. use no more than absolutely neseasary to make a stiff dough. On a lightly floured board roll out a little more than half the dough into a thin sheet large enough to line the pie pan. Tat the sheet of dough very lightly Into the pan so there will be no air bubbles underneath, put In the pie filling, and moisten the rim of the dough. Roll out the dough for the upper crust, allowing about a half inch extra around the edge, ; Fold the sheet of dough in .half, make a few slashes through both thicknesses near the center, lift onto the pie, and spread out over the filling. Pre as lightly around the edge of the pan, and if the filling Is Juicy allow enough dough to fold under well. Lift the pan up and trim off the surplus dough, holding the knife slantwise underneath the pan. With the tines of the fork, press the rim lightly down to the pan, and the pie is ready to bake.
