A ROSY ACCENT
FOR FEBRUARY FOODS
COFFEE
A serious indictment has been
brought against American home-
makers by National Family Opin
ion. Inc., which made a survey
last year for Pan-American Coffee
Bureau.
"Ihe average American house
wife brews coffee which is uni
formly poor," was the conclusion
reached after study of the survey.
According to the Coffee Brewing
Institute, you cannot get more
than 45 decent, drinkable cups of
'coffee out of a pound of ground
coffee and 40 cups to the pound
make an even Detter brew.
Today, the national average Is
ii cups to the pound. This means
that the American housewife is
wringing about 20 extra cups of
coffee out of each pound of coffee
she uses. As a consequence, all
the cups of coffee she makes from
that pound are weak and pallid.
"Coffee is many things to many
people," Pan-American Coffee Bu
reau says.
"To some, It is comforting
warmth on a cold day and for
others it provides the necessary
gumption to help them to get to
work on time. Sometimes coffee
means inspiration, or courage, or
merely a good excuse to sit down
and talk with someone you like.
Very often, it sets the final tone
of the at-home meal.
"To sum up, coffee should be
made so that the drinking of it is
a pleasure. It requires no sleight-of-hand,
no magic to brew it well.
"You'll find it worthwhile to fol
low the few common sense sug
gestions that make all the dif
ference between good coffee and
bad."
Start with a thoroughly clean
coffee-maker, the bureau advises
and use fresh coffee if you can.
Fresh water is important, too.
Measure the coffee properly each
time; Best results in brewing cof
fee are obtained by using one
standard coffee measure of coffee
(or its equivalent, 2 level measur
ing tablespoons) to i measuring
cup of water for each serving. If
you want weaker coffee, dilute,
with water after brewing.
Finally, serve the coffee as soon
"as possible after brewing.
February Is a month of cher
ries. From Valentines Day on, ev
ery homemaker has a favorite use

NEW CAKE MIX
A new prepared spice cake mix
is being produced by Procter &
Gamble, inspired by Duncan Hines
(now owned by Procter ft Gam
ble). The package, with a bright plaid
pattern, is specially constructed
to give better protection than ever
before.
Follow the easy 1-2-3 directions
for making the cake which appear
on the new plaid package. Then
when cool frost the light, spicy
cake with a maple syrup icing.
It will make a delightful, hearty
dessert for the pre-holiday sea
son. MAPLE SYRUP ICING
Vx cup shortening
1 egg
V teaspoon salt
4 cups sifted confectioners su
gar 4 tablespoons maple syrup
3 or 4 tablespoons milk
Blend shortening, egg and salt.
Add sugar alternately with syrup
and milk. Beat until smooth.
Spread between layers and over
the top and sides of cake.
BREAKFASTS
A little extra trouble will add
enthusiasm to those lagging break
fast appetites. Raisin bread toast,
either plain, or with jam, usually
tastes like more; hot biscuits can
be made in a jiffy and the pleas
ure with which they are received
makes the effort worthwhile.

Valentine Favors
Are your youngsters planning a
Valentines Day party?
Help them make easy, inexpen
sive favors, that their little gill
friends may use later as purses.
Designed by Martha Blair, di
rector of the Pfaff Sewing Insti
tute, the favors are made with
two pieces of hear-shaped red felt
joined at the top by a strip.
To make the purses, trace heart
shapes from a book or magazine
or fold a piece of newspaper in
half and cut a semi-heart shape
on the fold. Open the paper and
both sides of your heart will be
even.
Sew three-fourths of the way up
both sides of the heart and attach
a thin felt strip at the top of each
heart. When the little misses have
eaten the Valentine sweets from
their hear-shaped favors they cani
sup the handle over a wrist or
on a belt and use the favor as a
purse.
Pfaff designers suggest sewing
machine embroidering the hearts
and handle. Pfaff's heart - "felt"
Valentine favors may be made
from any fabric scraps. You may
cut one dozen four by five-inch
favors from a half yard of 36-inch
wide felt.
Heart "felt" Valentine favors are !
a wonderful bad weather project I
for youngsters. Little or no help!
from mother is needed to sew
them and their young guests will,
have a permanent Valentine par
ty souvenir. I
