Puffed Wheat And Grapenuts

In the bottom of the cereal bowls place 3 T grapenuts. Over this spread 4 T puffed wheat which has been freshly crisped and serve with cream and sugar.

Bacon

Place thinly sliced bacon in a cold frying pan, heat slowly, then saute to a delicate brown on both sides, turning often until done.

Preparing The Meal

Start the bacon to cooking over a very slow fire, then make the coffee. While these are cooking slice the bananas and place with a pitcher of cream on the table. Arrange the cereals in the bowls, then cut the bread and butter. Serve the fruit, then the cereal, then the bacon, bread and butter and coffee. Lower the flame under the bacon and coffee while the cereal is being served.

For June Menus instead of a summary of the cost and food value of the meals for the whole week, we give approximate cost and food value of each separate dish and meal when served for four persons. The following are the prices used in these calculations: Flour, 3 1/2 c per lb. or about lc a cup; bread, 5 c per lb.; sugar, 5 1/2 c per lb.; butter, 28c per lb.; milk, 8c per qt. ; cream, 32c per qt.; eggs, 20c per doz.; coffee, 32e per lb.; potatoes, 45e per peck; rice, 8c per lb.; spring vegetables, 10c per qt.

These prices are somewhat lower than current prices in large cities and their suburbs, but they are higher than prices to be obtained in many towns and villages, and so represent about the average. The quantities of bread, butter, sugar, etc., taken have been determined by weighing amounts commonly used.
