The Germans excel In the art Of pre-
pairing potato salad In q variety Of
combinations. Their first consideration
Is the potato. which must be Just right.
They use hard little potato. which
boils tender. but does not crumble.
These potatoes may often be bought In
delicatessen shops in your city and are
usually called German salad potatoes
or Hamburg potatoes. Blend them
with onions. green peppers. beets.
string beans. radishes. okra. carrots,
cucumber. tomato. parsley, cress ard
lettuce for vegetable salad
With salt or smoked fish. shrimps,
salmon. sardines. oysters or scallops
you may have different potato salad
every day. SO we'll do they combine
with other good things TO eat: All
cooked meats. fresh or salt. make most
excellent salads combined with potato.
Poultry and fresh fish. except those
mentioned. are an exception.
Potato salad Is the one exception to
the rule of serving salads as cold as
possible. They are very good served
hot and Outlines should be served in
this way. particularly for luncheon or
supper with cold meats. or. II combined
with meat. as warm supper dish.
Potato salad should never accompany
a regular dinner Of roast and vegeta-
bles. as it IS too hearty a dish in itself.

Culinary
Notes
When Preserving Fruit.

The secret OF preserving fruit is sim.
ply the killing of ferment germs and
bacteria by intense heat and the ex-
cluSion of air.
Fill Jars brimful-this excludes air
then see that the lids are screwed
down just rs tight as possible. After
screwing the lids on tight place the
jars upside down until cool. Any leak
caused by cracked cup or faulty sealing
rings will be instantly discernible
BE sure your jars are well sterilized-
that Is. heated through and through by
placing in hot water and let come to
boil. This sterilizes and also toughens
the Jars, SO they are not so apt to break
when filling with hot fruit.
Don't take any chance Of losing your
fruit by using sealing rings from the
previous year. Rubber Is very suscep.
tibe to climatic conditions and rots
very easily. Provide yourself with
new rings each year.
II Jelly does not set" we'll a few
days In the rays Of the hot sun will
improve it.
To seal jellies pour melted parafin
over the jelly in each glass. Fruit
jars may be sealed in practically the
same way. After filing jars with fruit
screw lid on as tight as possible. turn
upside down till cool, then dip tops in
melted parafiin. using care that the caps
and rubber sealing rings are complete
'ly covered.
Fruit may be kept several years in
this way.
