TO MAKE ICE CREAM

FORMULAS FOR MAKING PURE FROZEN DAINTIES.

Professor Mortensen of the Iowa Farm College Gives Some Recipes for Making Delicious and

Wholesome Ice Cream.

The following formulas for making ice cream are given by Professor Mortensen in a new bulletin on "The Classification of Ice Creams," which may be obtained free by writing to the Iowa experiment station at Ames:

Plain ice cream is a frozen product made from cream and sugar with or without a natural flavoring.

Formulas are given for making ten gallons of finished ice cream. Vanilla Ice Cream.—Five gallons 25 per cent cream, 8 pounds sugar, 4 ounces vanilla extract.

Chocolate Ice Cream.—Five gallons cream, 10 pounds sugar, 1% pounds bitter chocolate, 4 ounces vanilla extract.

Maple Ice Cream.—Five gallons 25 per cent cream, 6 pounds cane sugar, 2 pounds maple sugar, 2 ounces caramel, 4 ounces vanilla extract.

Caramel Ice Cream.—Five gallons 25 per cent cream, 8 pounds sugar,

SUGGESTIONS FOR MAKING GOOD BREAD

Flavor Depends Largely on Temperature at Which Dough Kept While Rising—Be Careful tc Put Bread in Oven When it Has Doubled Its Size.

By NEALE S. KNOWLES, Iowa State College, Extension Department.

Rolling Out the Dough for Biscuits

Moisture—Be

bread until it becomes very springy and elastic. This makes it rise more readily. The long kneading breaks up the large gas bubbles and helps to distribute them evenly through the loaf. If large bubbles of gas are left in the loaf they grow larger when the loaf is warmed, and make large holes in the loaf. Your loaf will be coarse in texture and grain if you let the bread rise too much. Put the bread in the oven when the loaf has doubled its size.

ounces caramel, 4 ounces vanilla extract. Coffee Ice Cream.—Five gallons 25 per cent cream, 8 pounds cane sugar, extract from 1 pound coffee.

Mint Ice Cream.—Five gallons 25 per cent cream, 8 pounds cane sugar, 1 pint concentrated creme de menthe syrup, few drops green coloring.

Nut ice cream is a frozen product made from cream and sugar and sound non-rancid nuts.

Walnut Ice Cream.—Five gallons 25 per cent cream, 8 pounds cane sugar, 4 ounces vanilla extract, 4 pounds of walnut meats.

According to this general formula the following nut ice creams may be prepared by substituting different kinds of nut meats: Chestnut ice cream, filbert ice cream, hazelnut ice cream, pecan ice cream, peanut ice cream, almond ice cream, pistachio ice cream.

Fruit ice cream is a frozen product made from 'cream, sugar and sound, clean, mature fruits.

Strawberry Ice Cream.—Five gallons 25 per cent cream, 8 pounds sugar, gallon crushed strawberries.

Employing the same formula the following creams may be made by

oven hot enough to brown a piece of letter paper in five minutes. If the oven is too cool the bread will rise too much. If the bread rises too much before it is put into the oven, it will settle and make heavy streaks in the loaf.

Sweetness—Yeast

plants feed on

starch and change it to sugar. The sugar is changed to alcohol and a gas. If the bread stands too long an acid is formed and the bread tastes sour. Be careful to put the bread In the oven just as soon as it has doubled its size.

Color—Too much yeast makes the bread a greenish white rather than

Crust—If your oven is too hot at first, the crust will be too thick and hard when the loaf is baked on the Inside. If you want a crisp shining crust, rub the crust with melted butter, as soon as the loaf is taken from the oven.

merely substituting fruits and berries for the strawberries. The amount of sugar may be varied according to the acidity of the fruit: Pineapple ice cream, raspberry ice cream, cherry ice cream, peach ice cream, apricot Ice cream, currant ice cream, grape ice cream, cranberry ice cream.

Preparation of lemon and orange ice creams cannot be included under this general rule. These creams may be prepared as follows:

Lemon Ice Cream.—Five gallons 25 per cent cream, 10 pounds sugar, 2 pints lemon juice, 1 pint orange juice.

Orange Ice Cream.—Five gallons 25 per cent cream, 10 pounds sugar, 2 quarts orange juice, pint lemon Juice.

By Wm. A. Lippincoa, Iowa Agricultural College.

Self-Preservation.

"So you have sold your, pair of horses and bought an automobile?" "Yes," replied Miss Cayenne. "I have concluded that it is better to be the cause of a runaway than to be in it."

Cornered All the Sugar

"Well, how do jrou feel since you have got engaged to that delightful little Miss Peachy?" "Say, I feel like I had put one over on the sugar trust!"

More Than Mere Superstition.

She—They say that to scratch a match at the wrong end is a sure sign of disappointment. Do you believe it?

Not Certain.

"On what plane would they, put an aerial army corps?" "Hard to say. They might decide on an aeroplane, and then again, they mipit prefer a biplane."

Ample Proof.

"I see where a veteran newspaper man died the other day who had founded 157 country weeklies." "A great old trouble maker, wasn't he?"

Proud of Him.

"My cousin Ernest," Mrs. Lapsling was saying, "always attends the reunions of the Harvard graduates. You know he's an alumnium of that university."
