Title A name given to the resource The Shamrock Cook Book Description An account of the resource Printed by the Calgary-based Western Printing & Lithographing Co., this particular edition is not included in Elizabeth Driver’s Culinary Landmarks; other 1915 editions were printed by S.A. Hynd Litho-Print Ltd. of Calgary (1043–44). P. Burns and Co. was established by Patrick Burns in Calgary in 1890, soon expanding to Edmonton and Vancouver as well. After the scandal of Upton Sinclair’s meat-packing exposé The Jungle (1906), this small cookbook emphasized the nutritional and sanitary quality of the Burns plants, particularly the “mammoth Calgary Packing-house,” open for inspection by consumers’ leagues and domestic science classes. It also points out that “The utmost care is taken in making our sausage—the kitchen is a model of cleanliness—all meat is Government Inspected meat.” Burns also ran a chain of retail stores, selling the Shamrock prestige brand, which encompassed meat, lard, butter, and eggs; Glendale Brand Fancy Creamery Butter; and Dominion brand, a lower-priced alternative. The recipe for “Escalloped Salmon” indicates that Burns also sold fish. While many of the recipes emphasize pork, Burns and Co. also declared that “The good red beef of Alberta—first cousin to ‘the Rare Roast Beef of Old England,’ is, after all, our great specialty.” This book followed traditional household manuals by including pithy and edifying quotes running across the top of the page. Another World War I-era Shamrock Cook Book featured two Irish characters, the tall and thin Shamrock, and short and stout Weaney (Driver, “Canadian Cookbooks” 34). Unfortunately this was their only appearance. Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource P. Burns & Co.

Title A name given to the resource Recipes for Household Science Classes Description An account of the resource This provincial curriculum book, issued by the Saskatchewan government, was renamed Recipes for Home Economics Classes by 1926, anticipating the University of Saskatchewan’s College of Household Science’s similar change to the College of Home Economics in 1952 (“History of Household”). With the scientific aspect already well established, “Home Economics” may have suggested a more business-like approach to domestic life and an expansion beyond nutritional facts to include social information as well. The inscription indicates that the book belonged to Agnes Janzen, probably a Saskatchewan high school student. This textbook also reflects the well-established partnership of cookery and sewing in home economics classes: students are instructed in making an appropriate uniform for their class, including a towel, potholder, and floppy chef’s hat. The recipes take a clearly pedagogical approach, beginning with simple beverages and advancing to more complex dishes. In keeping with late-nineteenth– and early twentieth-century household science’s advances in deconstructing work patterns, this book breaks cooking and dishwashing, for example, into a list of instructions to be followed.

Title A name given to the resource Saskatchewan Homemakers' Kitchens Description An account of the resource Dating from 1955, Saskatchewan’s Golden Jubilee, this book was produced by the Saskatchewan Homemakers’ Clubs. Founded in 1911 under the parentage of the University of Saskatchewan’s Extension Division, the organization was a key part of the province’s farm women movement (University of Saskatchewan Archives). Homemakers’ Clubs focused on education in domestic skills, as well as activist causes like improved health care for rural women. They were also affiliated with the Federated Women’s Institutes of Canada and the Associated Countrywomen of the World. They were replaced by the Saskatchewan Women’s Institutes in 1972 (Taylor). Handwritten and spiral-bound, the book was truly a collective community effort, with little editing aside from arrangement. Contributing clubs providing their own recipes and illustrations, which were not necessarily culturally accurate or appropriate, as with the recipe for “American Chop Suey,” featuring macaroni and a stereotyped portrait of an Asian man. But the recipes and illustrations reflected Prairie surroundings as well, as evident in the brands decorating the “Cowboy Casserole” recipe, or the sketch of a chicken on another page (although the recipe it accompanies uses only canned chicken soup).

Title A name given to the resource Swift's Meats for Babies Grow Chart Description An account of the resource This chart is part of a Swift Canadian campaign, beginning in the late 1940s, that encouraged “Meats for Babies.” Although Swift’s Canadian headquarters were in Ontario, this pre-cooked and strained food, sold in small cans, might have been produced at the Edmonton packing plant. Advertisements emphasized the food’s complete protein content and high nutritive value, including vitamin B, minerals, and iron, and indicated that it might be given to babies as young as three weeks (Swift Canadian Co., “Mothers!” and Swift, “Protein for Baby”). The practice of adding pureed meats to infant formula speaks to breastfeeding’s decline in this period, as mothers were taught to defer to the scientific authority of physicians and manufacturers (see Nathoo and Ostrey). Amy Bentley’s “Feeding Baby, Teaching Mother” explores this shift in infant feeding in the United States between the 1930s and the 1950s, observing how mass-marketed baby foods changed the prevailing wisdom about infant nutrition and encouraged the ever-earlier inclusion of manufactured solid food products. This growth chart was apparently used for a little over two years. Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Swift Canadian Co.

Title A name given to the resource Potatoes: Facts & Recipes Description An account of the resource From the early decades of the twentieth century, provincial and federal government departments produced free publications encouraging women to make the most of local products. Polly Potato, whose attractive but oversized head must have been modelled on the titular tuber, offered information about Manitoba potato varieties, nutrition, buying, and storage. The book, likely produced by mimeograph, also includes recipes for “Curried Potatoes,” “Escalloped Potatoes,” “Hungarian Potato Soup,” and “Potato Bon Bons” (which combined mashed potatoes with icing sugar). The recipes for “Chocolate Snowballs” and “Potato Doughnuts” have been modified to suit the cook; in the case of the grease-stained doughnut page, the recipe has been doubled. Such annotations speak to the interactive nature of cookbooks, which are constantly edited and refined to suit the reader’s tastes, experiences, and needs. A rare book dealer site also indicates that Polly had a partner in Potato Pete, who says “Buy me wisely, store me carefully, cook me skilfully & I’m Sure to Please” (“Potatoes”).

This copy in particular belonged to Zenovia Pidruchney of Vegreville High School. Her homework is evident on page 83. In addition to simple recipes (with relatively vague directions), the book contains basic nutritional information, including a chart dividing foods primarily by their effect on the body: “Foods which Furnish Fuel,” “Foods that Build Muscle,” “Laxative Foods,” and “Foods Rich in Mineral Matter or Ash.” The table of oven cooking temperatures and “simple home tests” speaks to readers who may not have had an oven thermometer or thermostat, both of which were relatively uncommon until after World War II.
