Q. each member of the family. Getting the farm breakfast need not be a troublesome problem, for, with a' little forethought and planning, a pal-! atable, wholesome meal may be pre- pared quickly that need not offend the . eye, the palate or the pocketbook. Many things may be prepared the night before that will assist greatly in the preparation and serving of the morning meal; coffee may be ground and measured into the percolator; cold boiled potatoes may be chopped for hash or for frying; hominy, oat- meal or rice may be looked over, wash- ed where necessary, placed in the double boiler, boiled a few minutes then placed in the Areless cooker where the coking process goes on with- out any further attention. Ingredients for the griddle cakes, waffles or muff- ins may be measured out and placed ready to hand, and eggs and butter placed conveniently near. Syrup and cream jugs may be filled, ham or ba- con sliced and trimmed ready for the broiler, If toast is to be served, the bread may be sliced and placed on the rack, all ready to be slipped into the oven and daintily browned quickly and evenly while we are waiting for the hash to brown or kettle to boil. Baked apples or baked apple sauce comes in nicely for breakfast and is extremely appetizing and healthful. We usually manage to have fruit of some kind, either cooked or fresh, for breakfast the year round. Fried corn meal or graham mush are old stand- bys and are quickly fried to a nice brown, if a little milk or a spoonful of sugar is added to the water when the mush is being made. By frying quick- ly the mush is never soggy or greasy. Serve it piping hot with a little minced Ereen pepper or parsley sprinkled +. over the top. "= It requires a deal of care and thought to prepare a suitable break- fast when mornings are frosty and "tempers are walking the tight-rope. The table should be made as neat and dainty as possible, no haphazard ar- rangement of dishes or food. The cloth should be spotless and free from wrinkles.
