New Ideas In
Vegetable Cookery

Our grandmothers used to teach
that the summer vegetables, cabb.
age, cauliflower, beans, and green's
OF all sorts, should be cooked for
a long. long time, but modern sci
ence teaches that it is much better
If these products are only cooked
for a very short time says Mrs. NJ.
Alberta Harris. home demonstra-
tion agent for Pinal county.
Summer cabbage, for instance,
should be shredded fine, declares
Mrs. Harris. dropped into rapidly
boiling water, salted slightly, and
With the lid left off, boiled not
more than fifteen minutes. II can
then be removed from the water
in which it was boiled, seasoned
with butter. meat fryings, white
sauce. cheese sauce, or holan-
daise sauce, and served at once
String beans are much better if
shredded very fine and then cooked
in rapidly boiling water with the
lid left off for a very few minutes
from five to fifteen minutes.
They Will have a better flavor if
finely minced saltpork or bacon o.
smoked ham is first fried until a
delicate brown and then put, fat
and all. into the kettle containing
the beans. If a lid is put on the
Kettle containing the beans while
they are cooking, the color will be
more apt to bleach out because the
steam that is held in by the lid vii,

little longer TO cook the beans If
the lid is not put on the kettle, but
the brighter color will repay for
the few minutes of longer cooking
that will be required.
Cauhflower and BROCCOLI both

ARIZONA
IN WASHINGTON
BY BOB MERkLEY

AS we look back over the hectic
days of a waning session Of Con-
gress, it appears that. of all legis-
lation directly concerning Arizona,
the Gila Project appropriation
probably caused her Washington
lawmakers the most anxiety.
The project was first defeated
in the House because an opposing
Congressman discovered that the
project was not originally authori-
zed by Congress. 1t then go throug
the Senate in the House it again
met with violent opposition from
various Congressman for several
reasons. Some feared that Arizona
might produce enough corn, cotton
and wheat TO cause serious dam
age to the southern and middle
western states, and others felt that
it would jeopardize the water rights
of the well-known upper basin
states. Then, too, it is hard to con-
vince a machinemade Congress-
man from small district in large
eastern city that his Uncle Sam
reeds an such thing as an irriga-
ton project in southwestern des-
ert. The bill was tossed out of the
House a second time.
Then, through Senator Hayden's
efforts, it was revived in the Sen
ate committee, from which it en-
erged modified to $4,000 This
was accepted by the House after
Representative Murdock convinced
enough of the opposition that Ari-
zona would not steal anybody's
water or flood the market with cot
ton and grain, but would produce
more Arizona cantaloupes, lettuce
aid citrus for which, quality con-
sidered, there is no competition.
