THE FAITHFUL PRUNE
■" £
Speaking of conservation of
food and other things, it is to
be. hoped that people dont place
the prune in the placCof honor.
There is no question but
that the alligator* skinne<!
prune, that has long been the
friend nideed to the house kee j
er, will be the goat in the food
conservation program, first be
cause they are reasonable in
price and second a stewed
prune can* be stewed'so that it
will a/we.11 up and look as big as
x watermelon and in looks it wil
be sufficient for you if in noth
ing else. The prune will probab
ly be elected to take the place
of .Suddings, pies, or "othei
dessert, while hash will act for.
beet-steak:' Hash is like., death,
nothing gets away from it an<
beef steak today becomes tht
hash of tomorrow and littl
warnl-ng and a dash of red per
er make it hash, Southern style
he .oliowing day and the uca
day it turn'’ up as ve 1 loa.
