for a highly colored sauce. This

ton. The stalks are transplanted
during growth so that they re
ceive sunlight and the vivid color
develops the length Of the stalks.
This type of rhubarb is also
good in pies and tarts, and need
less to say is high in demand.
Strawberries
The quality of the Strawberries
is on the up and up and the price
is slightly lower than has been the
case for several weeks. Grapefruit
is no longer on the bargain list.
Oranges are still available at mod
crate price.
Fresh pears from Oregon, purple
tokay grapes, and plums appear
among the more unusual fruits
for this season of the year.
The price of meat is going up,
according to merchants. However,
both veal and lamb are very reason
able and remain the best buys of
the week. For the Sunday din
ner a roast of veal or a leg of
lamb is the choice for a tasty and
economical piece de resistance.
Many types of fresh fish are
available from nearby waters.
Rocks are running" now, and this
means they will be both plenti-
full and cheap. This fish is con-
Sidered by many as very choice
among the local fish. 1t can be
broiled, fried. or baked. Sea bass
is also plentiful. The dark skin
of this fish is deceiving, for the
meat of the fish is white and de-
liciouS.
Fish and FryerS
Large shad are not so plentiful,
but the small shad are reasonable
in price and only few hours
away. The smaller fish will ap-
peal to those buying for small
families. Crabmeat is cheaper.
oysters are still coming in. The
season for this popular Shellfish
closes on the fifteenth of this
month, so the days in which to
enjoy your favorite oyster dish are
limited.
Chicken is also featured this
week. Modern methods of hatch
ing make it possible to have all
sizes of chicken on the market at
this season of the year. The
plump young "fryers" Matched in
December bring a treat for menus
that could not have been possible
few years ago.
