SAUERKRAUT PIE

   Not a great part of the American cuisine, but hey, I just gave the Canadians "pablum."

   Chicago, Jan. 5.--When Jack Dempsey starts training for his next fight, you may see this:
   "Jack Dempsey likes sauerkraut pie, because it is rich in vitamines."
   Sauerkraut pie is a new one--the latest wrinkle in domestic science.  The recipe for sauerkraut pie has just been published by the national kraut packers' association.
   "Sauerkraut pie," announces Roy Irons, Clyde, Ohio, secretary of the kraut packers and inventor of the new viand, "is not only a delicious dessert, but is rich in vitamines."
   Sauerkraut pie first appeared in Chicago--at North Turner Hall.  It was a riot.  Then it swept the loop.  Sauerkraut pie a la mode became a mania.
   The recipe for the new dish follows:
   "Prepare rich pie dough thicker than usual.  Put in the kraut.  Pour the grease from a couple of slices of bacon over the kraut.  Cover the pie with dough.  Then coat the crust with the yolk of a beaten egg.  Bake and serve hot."
