THE RURAL NEW-YORKER. 
Ways With Cheese. 
It is a well-known law of the physical 
world that less meat should be eaten dur¬ 
ing the heated term, and yet it is equally 
well known tnat strength-building foods 
are even more necessary than at other 
times. To fill in the gap then we have 
cheese, which is an admirable substitute 
for meat without the heating properties 
of the latter. However, many people who 
are really fond of the flavor of cheese are 
unable to take it in its raw state without 
positive discomfort. For these there is 
consolation in the delicious made cheese 
dishes, which in their infinite variety 
prove so satis lying. Cheese may form the 
substantial part of a breakfast, a luncheon, 
or a dinner, and be equally appropriate in 
its various guises at each meal. Try the 
following and be convinced: 
Cheese Balls.— (To follow the dessert, 
or as the chief dish of the informal sup¬ 
per.) To one cupful of dry grated cheese 
add three drops of Worcestershire sauce, 
the whites of two eggs well beaten, and a 
pinch of salt. Mould into soft balls, roll 
in bread crumbs, lay in a wire basket, and 
fry in hot lard until golden brown. 
Cheese Ramekins.—Two ounces of 
bread crumbs boiled in one gill of milk; 
to this add four tablespoonfuls of grated 
cheese, two of melted butter, and stir over 
the fire until blended, l ake off and add 
the beaten yolks of two eggs, salt and 
pepper to taste. Beat the whites of three 
eggs stiff, stir carefully into the mixture, 
and bake 15 minutes in a quick oven. 
Cheese Straws.—One cupful of grated 
cheese and one tablespoonful of butter 
creamed together; two slices of bread, 
without crust, dried in oven and rolled 
fine. Four tablespoonfuls of cold water, 
pinch of salt, dust of red pepper, and flour 
enough to roll out. Cut in strips and 
bake a delicate brown. 
Cheese Puffs—Make some puff paste; 
roll it out and cut it into squares of about 
three inches. Beat the yolks of two eggs 
and a little made mustard, a dash of cay¬ 
enne pepper and two tablespoonfuls of 
grated cheese, to form a thick paste. 
Place a spoonful of the mixture in each 
square of pastry, pull the four points to 
the center, pinching them together to 
make them stand up. Bake 10 minutes 
and serve very hot. 
Welsh Custards.—One cupful of dry 
grated cheese, four eggs, one cupful of 
milk, one teaspoonlul of butter, two of 
flour, mixed with milk, a bit of soda size 
of pea, half a teaspoonful of salt and a 
pinch of cayenne. Heat the milk, stirring 
in the soda, butter, salt and pepper, and 
the flour mixture, and pour scalding hot 
on the eggs beaten light in a bowl. Add 
the cheese, beat up for a minute, pour 
into buttered custard cups and bake in a 
brisk oven for 20 minutes. They should 
be served instantly. 
Spanish Rabbit.—To a cupful of grated 
cheese add two-thirds the quantity of 
minced onion, which is first cooked in 
boiling water. Drain and add milk to al¬ 
most cover the onions; season with salt 
and pepper and when the milk is hot put 
in the cheese. As soon as the cheese is 
melted stir in one well-beaten egg. Cook 
a moment longer and serve. 
Cheese Marbles.—Take an equal amount 
of grated cheese and mixed nuts chopped 
. fine. Season highly with red pepper and 
a little more salt, as the nuts will need it. 
Add the nuts to the cheese and stir well 
together with sweet cream. Enough 
cream should be used to make the mixture 
soft, but still have it in a condition to 
handle. Roll thj mixture into balls about 
the size of marbles, then roll again in 
chopped parsley. If mayonnaise or a 
good salad dressing is at hand use it in 
place of the cream and seasoning. Deli¬ 
cious to serve with a salad course. 
Escalloped Cheese.—Into a buttered 
baking dish sprinkle a layer of coarse 
bread crumbs, with butter, pepper and salt 
on top. Next add a layer of cheese, alter¬ 
nating with bread and cheese until the 
dish is full. Have bread crumbs on top, 
pour on sweet milk until you can see it by 
tilting the dish a little, and bake until 
done. 
Cheese Salad.—Grate cream cheese very 
fine and mix it with bottled salad dressing 
until as soft as a soft cheese. More pep¬ 
per (cayenne is best) is added, together 
with a little salt, for the dressing will not 
be seasoned high enough. A couple drops 
of onion juice, and a little horseradish 
may be used if liked, also a tablespoonful 
of minced parsley. Shape the mixture 
into a long cylinder and set aside to 
harden. For serving slice the roll of salad 
and pass three or four slices on a bed of 
lettuce with a spoonful of mayonnaise. 
Cheese Biscuits.—Mix dry grated cheese 
into a very stiff paste witn sweet milk, 
slightly seasoned with salt and red pep¬ 
per. Roll out to about a half inch, then 
cut into biscuits about the size of a half 
dollar. Bake in a quick oven. 
Sandwich Cheese.—Collect left-overs of 
dry cheese, grate fine, and moisten with a 
good salad dressing. A little more salt, 
with a dash of Worcestershire sauce will 
give it flavor. Pack this paste in cheese 
jars, or jelly glasses, seal and keep in a 
cool place until needed. Excellent for 
sandwiches. maude e. smith hymers.

The pleated and strapped shirt waist is 
an acceptable style. The blouse consists 
of the lining, fronts and back, with the 
sleeves, which are gathered into straight 
cuffs. The shoulder straps are arranged 
over the seams and are attached at their 
Hygienic Bedroom Carpet. 
Have floor well leveled, by dressing all 
projecting edges; then stretch tightly a 
covering of cheap cotton, tack it all around 
as tightly as possible. Select a suitable 
pattern of wall paper with border to 
match. Carefully paste on paper as you 
would on a wall, then put on border, neat¬ 
ly mitering the corners. When dry give 
a coat of size, and when that is dry give 
it two coats of clear or map varnish, and 
you will have a neat, clean, healthful floor 
covering that can be swept and cleaned al¬ 
most like a marble floor. A loose rug or 
strip of carpet from door to bedside com¬ 
pletes the work. h. t. t.

The boy’s military suit shown consists 
of blouse and knickerbockers. The blouse 
is made with back, fronts and a center 
front that is applied over them and held 
by brass buttons. At the shoulders are 
military straps, and the neck is finished 
with the characteristic collar, while the 
sleeves are plain and trimmed to har¬ 
monize therewith. The knickerbockers 
fit smoothly over the hips but the leg por¬ 
tions are drawn up by means of elastics 
inserted in the hems and bag becomingly 
over the knees. At their upper edges are

GRAIN COFFEE 
In comparing Grain-O and coffeo 
remember that while the taste is 
the same Grain-O gives health and 
strength while coffee shatters the 
nervous system and breeds disease 
of the digestive organs. Thinking 
people prefer Grain-O and its ben¬ 
efits.

Dress for Woman Farmer. 
The woman farmer who does more or 
less out-of-door work herself should give 
careful attention to her clothes, having 
them neat, comfortable and appropriate. 
For Summer wear, I advocate light-col¬ 
ored seersucker shirt waists. White is best, 
as it is so much cooler than a color, and 
this fabric can be washed easily, and does 
not need ironing. The waists should be 
made simply, with an elastic run in at the 
wrist so that the sleeve may be slipped up 
on the arm. The neck may be finished in 
some way becoming to the wearer—a 
turn-over color, a ruffle, or a frill of 
strong lace that will stand frequent wash¬ 
ing. It should not be close or high, for 
if one can keep her neck and wrists cool 
it will add greatly to her comfort in warm 
weather. 
Buttoned to the waist have a light gray 
flannel skirt. Have it short, reaching to 
the boot tops, and made so it will not 
bind when walking. Have tzvo or three 
pockets in it, so that you may carry jack¬ 
knife, handkerchief, tape measure, note¬ 
book and penen. Under the skirt wear 
bloomers made of cambric, to match the 
skirt in color. These are light, cool, and 
easy to wash. For the feet, a pair of 
thick-soled, high shoes are best for rough 
work, as low shoes on soft plowed ground 
are an abomination. As a rest from these, 
a pair of “youth’s” sneaks may be worn 
when not going on soft ground. They 
are easy and light, and it is almost like 
going barefoot to wear them. 
I made a raffia hat last Winter. It 
took a great many odd minutes, and I 
would not have undertaken it if I had 
realized the work in it, but it is a very 
satisfactory hat. It is light and the brim 
is broad and floppy, and the wind does 
not affect it as much as it would a stiff 
nat. For chilly or damp weather, a man’s 
short coat is very handy to slip on. It is 
not particularly becoming, but it is easy 
and warm, and the pockets are a blessing.
