PERFECT DIET FOR
CHILD IS PLANNED

Even as early as 6 months Of
age children are fed green vege-
tables in some form. II vegetable
Juice alone is being fed TO- the
child, usually carrot, spinach or
onion water is selected. A few
leaves Of spinach, few cubes Of
carrot, or one or two peeled
chopped onions are cooked in
lust enough boiling water to keep
them moist-about one-half cup
ful&-until tender. The vegetables
and water are then pressed
through d fine wire sieve. The
aieved vegetable settles to the
bottom, and the water aoove,
which is just as valuable as the
vegetable, is the vegetable juice.
It Is not long. however. before
che child can be served the Sieved
pulp from a variety Of cooked
vegetables, and this continues
until the child has molar teeth.
Thereafter the vegetables are well
mashed but not sieved. A large

small amount Of water---about
one-half or one cupful-placed

range the vegetables with a small
amount Of boiling water in q
covered casserole and bake them
until tender. And when baking

After the cooked vegetables
have been sieved they should be
mixed with butter and salted
lightly before serving. Inciden-
tally, it Is better to cook chill
dren's vegetables fresh each day
than to attempt to keep them in
good condition even in the best
Of refrigeratorS overnight.
Sometimes vegetable puree or
q vegetable soup is suggested as
a change from the plain sieved
vegetable for the children. For
the vegetable puree, heat three
tablespoonfuls Of the sieved
green vegetable. Add one-half

salt, and about three.fourthS

ened, remove and serve.
Raw grated or finely chopped
vegetables are now being advo-
Gated for children, particularly
those over 212 to 8 years Of age.
Carrots. celery. cabbage, onions,
lettuce and white turnip are all
used. In grating the well-cleaned
vegetables, hand graterS, a meat
chopper, or a chopping bowl, may
be used.
The grated raw vegetables alone.
in combination or mixed grated
apples, orange juice or tomato
Juice, may be seasoned with a
little melted butter and then
spread on thin slices Of dry or
fresh bread to be served in the
afternoon. Or to vary, add one
or two teaSpoonfuls Of the grated
raw vegetable to the child'S
cooked, mashed vegetables, or to
his vegetable soup. Grated raw
vegetables should be prepared
fresh each time Of using.
In addition to other foods, dry,
crisp bread is included in the
child'S daily meals to insure need
ed exercise for the teeth. In
preparing such bread, use either
white or whole wheat bread. Cut
thin slices, leaving the cruStS
on. and arrange them on a bak-
ing sheet or pan. Bake in a
slow oven of about 300 degrees
F. for 80 minutes or until the
bread is crisp and dry. Or when
some other baking operation has
been completed and the heat
turned off. crisp the bread in the
oven as it coolS.

MEALS OF ONE
COURSE OR
MORE

We are In the habit Of thinking
of meals in the form Of courses
and we often hesitate to serve the
simplest home luncheon or dinner
in less than two courses. For the
main course at dinner the general
custom is to have meat, fish or q
meat substitute with two vege-
tables, with q dessert and some
times q salad or soup. Yet when
asparagus is at the height Of its
season many families would
really welcome a meal Of aspara-

value and might well form an en-
tire luncheon or dinner. On hot
days q bowl Of salad, containing
meat or fish or hard-cooked eggs
or cheese as well as salad green's
may suffice for either luncheon or
dinner.
Crackers and cheese may accom-
pany 1t to complete a simple but

HINTS ARE
GIVEN

gins to pail in the spring. Cover
ing it with prepared mustard be-
fore baking will give the roast
just the piquant flavor necessary
to stimulate the jaded appetite.
Wipe the roast with damp cloth
and compute the time for roast
ing. For a rare roast. allow Is
rinutes to the pound; and for
a medium roast 80 minutes. Place
the roast on a trivet in an un-
covered roaSter and spread the
entire surface literally with pre-
pared 'lustard. Put in a hot oven
Of 500 degrees F. At the end Of
Is minutes reduce the tempera-
tire to $50 degrees F. or a
medium oven nd continue cook
ing the required length Of time.
A steak spread with mustard
the same way before broiling has
that slight gamey flavor which
is so desirable and SO hard to
obtain.
Stutf~c shoulder Of lamb with
garlic is another appetizing
change, for the spring menus.
Lamb cooked this way is good
either hot or sliced cold. Select
about a five-pound shoulder Of
spring lamb. Have the butcher
remove the bone. leaving a
pocket for stuffing. To prepare
the stuffing, cook two table
Spoonfuls chopped onion. one
half chopped celery, and one
tablespoonful chopped parsley in
three tablespoonfulS of fat until
vegetables are tender.
Add one cupful of hot water
and three cupfuls of soft bread
crumbs. Season with one tea
spoonful of salt, one-eighth tea
spoonful pepper, a Speck of cay.
enne and one teaspoonful Of
poultry seasoning. Stuff the
shoulder. weigh it, and compute
the time for roasting, allowing 90
minutes to the pound. Place the
stuffed shoulder on a trivet in a
roasting pan ready for baking.
Cut several Sits in the top Of
the shoulder and insert thin slices
of a bud of garlic. Rub the
shoulder we'll with flour and sea-
son with salt and pepper. A little
dried or fresh mint sprinkled over
the lamb gives it an excellent
flavor. Roast in a very hot oven
Of 500 degrees F. for Is minutes,
then reduce the temperature to
$50 degrees F. or a medium oven
and complete the roasting.

CHILLED FRUIT
COCKTAILS
PLANNED

With the approach Of the warm
summer weather you will find that
q well.chilled fruit cocktail will
add greatly to your rnenus-either
for luncheon, dinner or supper.
Aside from the INGREDIENTS there
are certain rules that apply quite
generally to the making and Serv.
ing Of all fruit cocktails. They
should have a slight tang and be
thoroughly chilled when served.
For this reason they are better If
prepared long enough before the
meal in time to chill either in the
refrigerator or in the ice trays of a
Tefrigerating unit. Similar fruit
combinations known as fruit cups
may be served for dessert.
In serving a fruit cocktail ar
range the chilled fruit in chilled
sherbet glasses. Place each glass
on q small plate, with or without a
dolly, having the spoon on the
right hand side Of the plate. Then
place on the service plates either
just before the guests are seated
or immediately afterward. Here
are the recipes for q few Of the
more or less unusual fruit cock
tails:

Of split peas with crackers or
