Blackfoot, Ida.—Will you kindly
give me a recipe for stuffed peppers,
to serve us a vegetable. I have the
stuffed pepper recipe that is made In
to a pickle. Thanking you.
C. S. N,
I'm so sorry my answer has been
dotained a week. I assure you it was
unavoidable. 1 am glad you have ask
ed for this recipe of atutled peppers.
It Is one I value most highly for an
! extra nice dish, especially adapted to
j take the place of meat. It Is worth the
time and money:
STUFFED PEPPERS: Twelve med
ium sized sweet peppers; pound
ground round steak (hamburger un
seasoned will do); *4 pound salt pork
(free from rind and lean) ground; 2
handful, well soaked stale bread,
squeezed dry; H cup well soaked rice;
aalt; 1 egg; 1 medium sized onion.
To stuff—Mince onion .very fine ln<
chopping bowl, add meat, bread pre
viously soaked In cold water and
squeezed dry (take wet bread in two
hands and squeeze Into ball), the well
soaked rice, salt and egg, mix thor
oughly and stuff peppers.
To prepare peppers—Cut off top.
take out seeds and white velnlng
(scissors are excellent to use), put
peppers and cut off top In a weak
brine for one or two hours before
stuffing to remove the bity, hot taste.
When peppers are stuffed, set up in
deep cooking dish, small end down,
cover with cooked, strained tomato
Juice and simmer slowly 1^ hours.
Serve with the tomato sauoe.
When I have fresh tomatoes, I stir
them and rub through oolande.r, but a
can of tomatoes will do nicely. I find
the addition of canned tomato soup to
the strained tomato juice gives a very
fine flavor to the tomato sauce.
STUFFED SUMMER SQUASH—I
would like to add this recipe. It is the
season when vegetables abound and
we are urged to use them at this time,
as they are perishable—try this: The
squash, when young and tender, may
be oookad without paring. Remove the
stem and blossom end, put the squash
In a coarse cheese cloth bag, and par
boil In boiling salt water, for 10 min
utes. In the meantime, make a stuf
fing, using half a cup minced boiled
tongue or ham. Peel and out up two
small onions Into dice shaped pieces,
put them Into sauce pan with enough
cold salted water to cover. As soon
as water bolls, rlnBe In cold water and
dry with a cloth. Melt 2 tablespoons
(level) butter In frying pan—add on
ions and fry gently, taking care not to
let them get too brown, salt and pep
per, mix with 1 cup fresh bread
crumbs and a cup of minced boiled ham
or tongue, add a little cream and mix
welL
Take seeds out of parboiled squash
and enough pulp to make good sized
cavity, brush the Inside with butter, a.
dash of salt, then fill the cavity with
prepared stuffing, plaoe In baking
pan—pour a oup stock around the

FLGIN SIX
"THE CAR OF THE HOUR *
Breaks
Another Record
The Elgin Six has just established a new record
of 67^a hours between Chicago and Miami, Fla., a
strenuous trip of 1,626 car-racking, stamina-testing
miles.
Thirteen hours of this time was driven in a heavy
rainstorm that made the roads slippery and dangerous,
and in some places bo deep and heavy with mud that
the average car could not negotiate them at alL
The route included the Bteep, rocky mountain
grades of Kentucky and Tennessee, the heavy sands
of Georgia and the slimy, treacherous swamp roads of
Florida.
The Elgin Six has made perfect scores and won
highest economy honors in some of the most gruell
ing endurance and economy runs of the past year.
Many other remarkable Elgin performances have
firmly established the Elgin Six as a Mechanical Mas
terpiece and a champion for long-sustained speed, en
durance and economy.
And, as for style and beauty, no other car selling
under $1,250 has the fashionable center cowl and the
V"-type radiator of the high-priced European models.
Its beautiful yacht line design sets the Elgin Six aside
from the monotonous designs of common cars and
gives it distinction on country roads or city streets.
