By HELEN BANNERMAN Canadian Press Staff Writer CEREALS ARE PRECIOUS Cereals are one of our most precious foods these days arid the less bread and white flour used in our homes the more these will be to send to Europe. 10 help prevent waste we can purchase cereals in smaller! quantities than formerly and take particular care to store it well in the hot summer months. Any cereal, especially those containing the germ of the grain, require good storage in hot weather. Weevils develop readily in warm weather unless the cereal Is kept cold and dry In those which contain the germ the oil may turn rancid. The home economists of the Agriculture Department Con sumer Section suggest a tin. with closely fitting lid as an excellent container for cereals and It should be stored where it will be kept fairly cool. To reduce the bread served, scones, biscuits and muffins made from bran or rolled oats make .good substitutes. Those Honey Bran Muffins make an excellent accompaniment for salad or dessert or to take on a picnic. The recipe for Honey Bran Muffins which yields a dozen medium-sized muffins requires l'i cups sifted all-purpose-flour; three teaspoons of baking powder; 34 teaspoon of baking soda; 3,i teaspoon of salt; IV2 cups of cooking bran; 4 cup of honey; one egg; 1 y4 cups sour milk or buttermilk, and two tablespoons mild-flavored, melted fat. Sift tire flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Add bran, mixing thoroughly. Mix honey, well-beaten egg and sour milk and add with melted fat to the dry; Ingredients, mixing .quickly and lightly. Turn Into, well greased muffin pans, filling them 23 full, and bake In a hot Cut with biscuit cutter and bake-on greased baking sheet In a very hot oven, 450 degrees F for 15 minutes. Yield: 12 medium biscuits. - "THE CREDIT HOUSE OF QUALITY" 1 Jib 4 C3 , H3 oven, 400 degrees fahrenhelt, for 20 to 25 minutes. BETTER 2ATINQ HABITS TheFood Information Committee supplied these figures about how Improvement In our eating habits can help the less fortunate parts of the world. One slice of bread saved each day by each Canadian would release sufficient to increase the dally ration of 900,001 hungry people by 1,000 calories. A single slice of bread wasted by each household in Canada adds up to more than 117,000 loaves, or 634 barrels of flour or 2,800 bushels of wheat. A one-ounce reduction In the amount of meat you give your family would not be noticed either by you or them, if eacn family used Just one ounce less of meat each day, the national saving would be more than 600 tons of meat in a week meat that would find its way to people who live with hunger. Do you know that you may throw away the equivalent of one egg white in every dozen If you don't thoroughly scrape out the shells? Tlie committee also contributes these bits of advice: Make clean plates the vogue of the day In your household; Become an accurate Judge of appetltles and don't cook for six when there are four to be fed; If you have left-overs make Interesting use of them as promptly as you can; cooked foods particularly vegetables rapidly lose attractiveness and nutritive value on standing.
