Willow as Soil Builder

The idea of using the willow as
d soil builder dates back to pioneer
days when settlers planted willows
to stop soil erosion along water
courses and roadways where boggy
conditions were encountered, says
the Detroit News. 1t is well known
that we have no native tree with a
root spread as dense and with wa
ter-absorbing qualities so great as
the willow. Frequently the root sys-
tenn is far greater in diameter than
the crown spread. 1t is our great
est tree drinker, and when planted
in dense stands it has been known
to lower the water table Of the area.

Wiu you please tell me If the
grape Juice aohich / make at homo
IS poisonous? / use one cup fresh
grapes and one cup sugar I'm q ster-
iliSed jar. fill with boiling s0ater
and seal.
The sugar and boiling water
should prevent fermentation, and
if there is no evidence of fermen-
tation when the jar is opened, the
product you make could not be
poisonous.
What is tarragom vinegar and
hOW is it used?
Tarragon is an aromatic garden
herb. Vinegar favored with it has
an agreeable fragrance and is es-
pecially good for use in vegetable
salads.
Some recipes refer to Welsh
Rarebit a0hile others refer to the
same thing as Welsh Rabbit.
Which IS correct and why?
Although there seems to be
difference of opinion among cook
cry experts with regard to spelling,
Webster's dictionary says,-"Welsh
rabbit-a dish variously made of
melted cheese or toasted cheese
often mixed with ale or beer, pour
ed over toasted bread or crackers;
sometimes enormously called Welsh
Rarebit."
What is the difference between
"mayonnaise" and "salad dress
ing"?
Both mayonnaise and salad
f1avoring salads. The distinction
is used by Federal and State gov
ernments to enforce pure food
laws. The purpose of these laws
is to protect the consumer from
adulterated or mislabeled food
products. AS a basis of compar-
ison, food standards are defined by
the Food Standards Committee and
accepted by the Secretary of Agri-
culture as the official standard for
the Department.
Mayonnaise, according to such
standards, must contain not less
than 500 edible vegetable oil and
enough egg yolk to make the sum
of the percentages of oil and egg
not less than 1870. Salad dressing
on the other hand may contain
only small amount of egg yolk,
or none at all. Furthermore, it
may contain large amount of
starch and other products, but lit
tie or no oil.
What are Russian Coffee Creams?
