Kitchen Hints
Tempting Menus
Fresh Vegetable Soup
BY Bertha L. Shapleigh
or Columbia University

At this season of the year when
vegetables are plentiful in gardens
and markets, a soup in which
many different vegetables appear
is attractive and good. 1t may be
made quite thick and be a vegetable
stew.
This, with bread and butter and
a good desert made with eggs and
milk, is sufficient for a dinner. 1t
offers an ecellent way of giving the
family the valuable mineral salts
and vitamines so much needed for
health. The following combinations
OF vegetables will be found good:
4 tomatoes.
1 cucumber.
l green pepper.
4 small carrots.
4 small white turnips.
2 cups chopped cabbage.
/ cup celery.
2 potatoes.
One-half cup butter.
3 quarts boiling water.
9 teaspoons salt.
l teaspoon paprika.
One-eighth teaspoon pepper.
/ teaspoon sugar.
e ana cut III pieces
Mash, pare turnips and scrape car
rots, and cut both vegetables n
cubes.
Pare cucumbers, remove seeds
and cut in pieces. Cut celery in
thin slices. Pare and cut pota-
toes into eighths. Cook all the veg
etables except potatoes in the butter
20 minutes, being careful they do
not burn or even become Drowned.
Add water and seasonings, cover
kettle closely, and cook slowly one
hour. Add potatoes, and cook, until
potatoes are soft. Season more II
necessary. Add chopped parsley
and serve. Any one of these vege-
tables may be omitted and others
added.

The college girl is being trained

beneath the tropic sky. You should
come to Punta Gorda, far from the
land of snow, amid the birds and
flowers, where the sweet magnolias
grow. You should come to Punta
Gorda, where the orange blossoms
grow, and enjoy the balmy zephyr
from the Gulf of Mexico. You should
come to Punta Gorda, on the Char

city of Wauchula recently bought ten

it is on this tract that the new well
