AT THE CHILDRENs TABLE - Chop Suey Makes Excellent
 Summer Dish For Everyone

careful seasoning to make them tasty.
 Children enjoy something differ ent, especially when they have earned a treat, and many of my lit tie friends ask for chop suey when they have a choice. I have never been able to find out whether this preference is due to the food or to the Chinese suggestion that goes with the dish. But do know that this very good pork chop suey recipe always has a hearty welcome. Chop suey makes fine summer dish, you know, combining, as it does, little meat with much green food.
 Pork Chop Suey
 Cut half pound lean pork in mar row strips or shreds and add two tablespoons soy sauce; saute gently for IS minutes. Gut celery into mar row strips-enough to fill two cups; also one cup onions cut in very thin slices Remove the sprouts from one No. 2 can of subkum and set aside to add at the last. Canned sub kum consists of bean sprouts, water chestnuts and bamboo shoots. Your grocer will get it for you)
 Cut the bamboo shoots and chest nuts into very thin slices, then In narrow strips. Add celery, onions and a small piece of ginger root, mix well and add to the meat in the skillet, together with the juice from the can of sub kun and two cups soup stock. Cover and cook until celery and onions are tender. Add one tablespoon flour moistened with a little water; cook until slight ly thickened; add one tablespoon brown sauce (this comes in bottles) and more soy sauce, if desired. Last of lal add the sprouts and heat for few minutes. Serve with snowy, well-cooked rice.
 AS you see, my recipe calls for 1avorings and products not usually found in the home kitchen. They are not expensive, however. Cook ing is an art that one may well be proud of, but like all other arts, it takes study and practice to create real interest in making everyday meals the best possible.

Dainty
 Dessert Salad

This Frozen Cheese Salad is real ly half salad-half dessert. It's just the thing to serve for afternoon par ties, or after bridge in the evening.
 Daintily rich and nourishing, lit tie else need be prepared to go with Frozen Cheese Salad. Fluffy hot bis- cults, hot rolls, or flaky crackers, and either fragrantly steaming cof- fee, or frosty minted ice tea (de- pending upon whether your guests like their beverages hot or cold), would be a perfect accompaniment.
 Frozen Cheese Salad
 F cup irradiated evap. milk
 tbsp. lemon juice
 1 pkg. cream cheese 6 oz)
 A cup mayonnaise
 # cup sliced dates
 F cup crushed pineapple
 Lettuce or watercress
 Chill milk thoroughly, then whip until" stiff. Add lemon juice and whip until very stiff. Mash cheese. Add mayonnaise a little at time, blending well. Fold into whipped milk, then add dates and pineapple. Freeze in the tray of an automatic refrigerator, Or pour into a mold and pac in a 1:3 salt-ice mixture. Serve on lettuce leaves or watercress. Yield: 6 servings.
 Here's a tip in preparing Frozen Cheese Salad-freeze it in the ice cube trays. It's then in petite squares, all ready to be tucked into crisp lettuce cups or pumped in the middle of beds of tangy watercress. It is easy to whip irradiated evap- orated milk for the preparation of frozen salads and frozen desserts. The simplest method is to pour the mil into the freezing tray and leave it in the refrigerator until it begins to freeze around the edges. Then pour it into chilled bowl and whip. The addition of a little lemon juice help thicken the milk and makes a smoother frozen mixture.

Hints 10 Gardeners Ly Gilbert Bentley
 FIOSCeT Expert Ferry Seed Isstisute

4 GARDEN loses it's charm when "A it is neglected. A little attention at strategic times during the sum. mer will keep your garden out oI the "forIorn" class.
 A bit of "tidying" is necessary with bulb flowers that have bloonned and dropped. If bulbs are to be left in the ground, remove the unsightly past prime stalk, leaving just enough stub so the bulbs can be located Tn the fall. If it is desired to remove the bulbs entirely, store them until fall in a dark, dry place.
 The beauty of the garden scene is enhanced, of course, if annuals are grown in the space left unused by removal or clipping of bulb flowers.
 It is advised also to clip the tops of early-blooming perennials when they have begun to wilt. This is a good move not only because it keeps the garden heater, but because there is a chance of procuring a second bloom from some flowers if the first is just past it's prime. This applies particularly to Delphinium, Sweet William, Perennial Dianthus and Pyrethrum.
 In almost all cases, annuals bloom more abundantly if they are picked regularly. Continuation of bloom adds much, of course, to the charm of the garden; and if one picks regularly he can keep the plants free of dead foliage.
 Later in the season the gardener may wish to keep annuals well picked to prevent reseeding. In cer. tain localities certain annuals tend to mature seed, drop it, and produce an unwanted profusion of seedlings the following spring. The gardener should ascertain which annuals are likely to reseed in his territory.
 It will be desirable in the fall, when perennials have lost their beauty as foliage, to cut them to the ground.
 Throughout the summer, regular wedding will be necessary, naturally. The last stroke of the season, in maintaining a good-looking garden, Is to mulch perennials and bulbs neatly, after the ground has frozen solidly.

Costly as the depression was, its clouds were not completely devoid of a silver lining, for it forced greater interest than ever before in the study and knowledge of ade- quate diets at low cost which would help to meet the emergency situa- tion caused by defiated pocketbooks and at the same time maintain health, especially the health of chil- dren and eXpectant mothers in the periods when structural tissue is be- ing formed.
 This beneficial effect of the de- precision is explained by Elizabeth c. Nickerson, didector of the Bureau of Public Health Instruction of the State Department of Health, in an article appearing in the depart ment's current monthly bulletin, in which she outlines Connecticut'S program for the dissemination of information concerning proper nu- triton.
 Relation of food to health and physical fitness is no longer an irl- dividual problem, but now attainS national and international signif1- canoe with studies of racial groups and their food habits definitely re- vealing that those people or nations whose diets contain dairy products and other protective foods are larg- CT, stronger and more vigorous than those whose lifetime food has been deficient in these essentials, Miss Nickerson states.
 Connecticut's nutrition program takes into consideration the oppor- tunity of working through com munity leaders and of placing in theirs hands authentic information about accepted standards in nutri- tion, and it aims to assist them in interpreting these to the people, Miss NickerSon says, giving the fol- lowing outline of the plan:
 Keep health officials and com- munity workers (health officers, public health nurses, school nurses, dental hygienists, social workers) up-to-date with authentic informa- ton on accepted nutrition principles by: professional leaflets and bulletin articles, short courses in nutrition for field workers in different dist tricts in the state, conferences or correspondence; assist local public health nurses, social workers and relief agencies in racial, economic and budgetary problems in nutrition by means of field trips, conferences or correspondence; instruct the pulp lie through wide distribution of nu- triton leaflets, talks before organ nations, radio talks, short courses in nutrition, conferences or corre- spondence; organize nutrition class es for lay groups; discuss food prob lems with the mothers at well child conferences and advise them about food budgets, proper food for chil-

s Of all the methods of cooking fish, the man likes best the platter of crisp-crusted fish that reminds him of fresh caught fish fried over a camp fire only 1t is better, to make up for being done in the kitchen instead of out of doors.
 A mistake is made now and then in frying the wrong kind of fish, and sometimes in the method of frying. So we may as well go over the sub feet and see how much or how little we know about it.
 The best fish for pan-frying are catfish, porgies, perch, striped bass, smelts, whiting, weak-f1sh, founder, fillet of sole, haddock and halibut. The smaller fish may be fired whole; he larger ones should be cut in steaks or slices about ythree-fourths of an inch thick. s1 Fish fries nicely in olive oil, and also in butter. First coat the fish with flour that is well seasoned with salt, a speck of sugar and pepper. Or if you like a heavier crust, use C1umDS or COrIlIiCdl. OoC PACAOy VI butter or oil to prevent sticking; place fish in the pan when 1t IS smoking hot, brown on one side, turn and brown on the other. Place on a vory hot platter, garnish with par sley and lemon slices and serve at once.
 ?, A slightly different effect and fla 'vor is obtained by frying fish in deep fat French frying it and when small fish are skinned they are more delicate. Dip them in boiling ,, water for few minutes and the skin will come off easily. Sprinkle with salt and pepper, dip in fine crumbs and fry in deep hot fat from three to six minutes. Fillet of sole, houn- der and haddock also cook well ia- deep fat.
 Drain the pieces on brown paper. place on hot platter, garnish ana send to the table. Olive oil, lard or a good cooking oil may be used for deep fat frying.
