berries have been at their best, but
nature provides well for that and
brings us peaches, plums, pears and
California grapes now and in few
weeks there will be plenty in market

natural condition there is no better
way of enjoying it. But everyone
cannot eat it without some of the
acids being neutralized through cook
ing, so a few combinations with other
food materials will furnish some fresh
fruit dishes good to look upon and
delicious to eat.
For years we have known that APP
pies were excellent baked. and as APP
pie sauce. but only within two or
three years have we tried peaches in
the same manner and have been more
than delighted with results.

A White Polo Coat
Dear Miss Doom

Dear Miss Doom
VIII you advise me as to how I'd
clean a white polo coat? Can 1t bs
cleaned at home by a dry process? II
not, will it harm it to wash 1t with
soap and water? MISS M. J. S.
| think you would be wise to takq
the coat to a professional cleaner. n
is probably too big a garment; to9
clumsy for you to handle satisfac3
torily. But, if you want to try, you
might give it corn meal scrub Lay
the coat on the table and cover we'll
with white corn meal. Rub in thor-
oughly with a brush. Do this for
several minutes. Then shake we'll and
rub in more meal Cover the garment
thickly, then fold and put away in a
box, away from the light, for forty
eight hours. Then hang on the line
and beat lightly with a carpet heater
or stick until all of the meal is out.
This ought to remove most of the
soil. I'm afraid you'd be sorry if you
attempted to wash the coat at home
with soap and water.
