Eggs Rate Next to Milk
As Most Valuable Food
By Bureau of Homo Economics, V. S.
Department of Agriculture
If we had to do without milk, the
next most valuable single food would
be eggs. Eggs are more nearly In
terchangeable with milk In nutritive
value than any other food, according
to scientists whose life work is the
study of foods.
Eggs are so very Important, says
the Bureau of Home Economics pf
the U. S. Department of Agriculture,
that this country would be better off
If everybody could be sure of at
least three or four eggs a week, and
more If possible. Apparently we did
average something like that a few
years ago. But more eggs are eaten
--on the farms that produce them, tt
seeme, than by people who must buy
them, and a great many people get
eggs very seldom Indeed, certainly,
at city prices, a dozen or two of
eggs for the family each week makes
something of a hole In the food
budget trimmed down to the slimmest
pocketbooka. But maybe, at that,
the eggs would bo a better invest
ment In food values than some other
things that seem cheaper.
Let us see why, says the Bureau
of Home Economics of the U. S. De
partment of Agriculture. Eggs are
easily digested so easily that we give
them to the babies and invalids. That
means we digest an unusually high
high percentage of the food sub
stances eggs contain. And, with Just
two important exceptions, are rich
Mn all the known food substances
necessary for growth and develop
ment of the human body. The egg
has proved its concentrated food
value because It docs actually feed
the embryo chick, providing every
thing the chick needs to put him
factually on his feet and walking as
eoon as he la hatched. The chick,
by the way, gets calcium from the
egg, although we can't. He gets It
from the shell, which we discard.
The Important nutritive values of
the egg are Its protein, fat, minerals
(especially phosphorus and lron, and
vitamins (especially A, B. D and G).
And as these are food values that
change very little when eggs are
properly cooked , It doesn't matter
much, nutritionally speaking, wheth
er you take your eggs raw or cooked.
The big point la HOW to cook
them. That has much to do with
the digestibility of eggs. Always cook
them slowly, at moderate, even heat.
For soft-cooked eggs or for hard
oooked eggs with tender whites, start
the eggs in cold water to cover, sup
ported on a rack. Heat the water
gradually to simmering, but do not
let It boll. Boiling temperature
toughens white of egg. The tempera
ture of the water should not be al
lowed to go higher than 185 degrees
P. For soft-cooked eggs, remove from
the fire when the water simmers (or
is at 185 degrees F.) , cover the pan
m and let it stand for a few minutes.
The length of time required must
be found by experience. The num
ber of eggs cooked at a time, the
size of the pan, and the quantity
and temperature of the water all af
fect the rate at which egga cook.
For hard-cooked eggs, continue cook
ing over a low fire for 30 minutes
after the water simmers, and keep
It below boiling.
To poach eggs, break them Into
enough boiling salted water to cover
them in a shallow pan, and lmme
dltaely remove from the fire. Cover
and let stand for about five min
utes. Remove the eggs carefully with
a perforated spoon.
To fry eggs, break them .Into a
. moderately hot pan containing ba
con or other fat, and cook over a
low fire. If the eggs are to be cooked
over the top, dip up the hot fat with
a spoon and pour it over the yolks
until a coating Is formed. Or, If
preferred, turn the eggs carefully and
cook them on both sides.
For shirred or baked eggs, break
them Into a shallow buttered baking
dish or ramekin, dot with butter,
and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
Place the dish in a pan of water and
bake in a moderate oven (350 de
, r grees F.) until the whites of the
I eggs are set.
" Even when the price of eggs Is up,
they are comparatively cheap as a
main dish for any meal, because they
give so much food value for the
money.
With eggs and milk, greens or to
matoes, and bread, you have all the
KINDS of food you need for a meal;
or say you have an omelet, toast and
fruit, with milk to drink; or creamed
hard-cooked eggs, or baked eggs in
white aauce or eggs with salt pork or
bacon to any of these add tomatoes
or cabbage, or fruit, drink milk or
buttermilk, and you have, a balanced
meal.
And keep this in mind for econo
my's sake: Two protein dishes, like
eggs and lean meat, eggs and fish, or
eggs and beans, served at one meal,
are extravagant. If you wish to keep
your food bill down, 'and at the same
time keep the family diet balanced,
use eggs as a main dish when you arc
not serving lean meat, or beans.

Coroner L. C. Aday placed a first de
gree murder charge against Frank
Martin, trusty guard, for the killing
yesterday of Helen Spence Eaton,
woman convict, as she was attempting
to make good her escape from the
state farm for women.
Aday said he had advised the gov

the whole matter come before the
grand Jury and said "the governor's
office heartily concur in my views."
The circumstances under which the
restless girl convict was shot fo death

"NOT CONSTIPATED
FOR SEVEN WEEKS"
Writes Mrs. Johnson After
Using Kellogg's All-Bran
Sufferers from constipation will
be interested in this unsolicited
letter:
"Your Al-Brait surely relieves
constipation. I am bo elad over the
good it has done me that I feel I
must write and tell you of it,
"For lunch I take a banana, a
large one. Six tablespoons of All
Bran in a sauce dish, and dip
banana at each bite until all is
consumed. I haven't been consti
pated now for seven weeks." Mrs.
Louise Johnson, 1433 Forest Street,
Denver, Colorado.
Constipation often causes head
aches, loss of appetite and energy,
sleeplessness. This condition is
usually due to lack of "bulk" to ex
ercise the intestines, and vitamin B
to further promote regular habits.
Kellogg's All-Bran has both, as
well as iron for the blood.
The "bulk" in All-Bran Is much
like that in leafy vegetables. 'With
in the body, it forms a soft mass.
Gently, it clears out the wastes.
Try All-Bran in place of patent
medicines often harmful. Two
tablespoonfuls daily will overcome
most types of constipation. Chronic
cases, with each meal. If not re
lieved this way, see your doctor.
Use as a cereal, or in cooking.

lie to "be let In on everything that
is to be known about It."
Helen was shot behind the ear, and
It was this circumstance, he said,
that caused many comments on the
killing.
Aday returned a verdict of Justifi
able homicide following his own ex
tensive investigation late yesterday,
after Martin, apparently the only eye
witness, said Helen refused to hold up
her hands when ordered to do so, and
Instead reached for a pistol she carried.
