Unusual Carrot Recipes

Carrots we have with us always
but there are several ways to vary

Preserving Flavor

To preserve flavor, the best way
for all vegetables except the cab
.bage family and onions is to cook
In q small amount Of water, in q
steamer, or if they require long
cooking, in pressure cooker.
Another factor is not to overlook
the vegetables. Serve them when
tust done and avoid unnecessary
cooking. # it is necessary to wait
to serve the meal, drain the vege-
tables as soon as they are done and
remove from the stove, and then
reheat quickly just before serving.

Broccoli, Artichokes

Two vegetables which are related
to the cabbage but are not in such
general use are broccoli and arti-
cnokes. Their use is gradually in
creasing, as both are very delicious.
Atichokes are boiled and served
either hot with drawn butter or
cold with mayonnaise. They should
oe dropped In a kettle of boiling
Wel-salted water to which a tea
spoon of vinegar may be added.
some also add part of a kernel of
garlic for added flavor. Cook until
the stem end is tender when pricked
WITH fork, which takes from 40 to
" minutes, depending on size.
Broccoli, while related to the cab
oase family looks more like cauli-
lower, while its flavor somewhat
resembles that of asparagus. To be
5000, broccoli should only be pur-
cnased when fresh and green and
oelore 1t Is too much lowered. It
saould be soaked in cold water for
soout an hour then the stalks cut in
.so-inch pieces, and If thick, they
s',ouid also be cut in half length
we. Broccoli cooks quickly and
LIQUID not be cooked too long, as
ss gives it an unpleasant flavor.

Preserving Nutrients

Quick cooking will also save nu-
trients. Whenever possible, water
used In cooking of spinach, carrots,
etc., should be saved and used in
soup or cream sauce to serve with
the vegetable. If the vegetable is
the kind which can be cooked in q
small amount of water, the water
less method is good, which IS to
use a heavy aluminium kettle which
covers tightly. Carrots, beets which
been peeled and diced, and potatoes
are good cooked in this way. Add
only about n cup water.

Preserving Color

OF the four color groups into
which vegetables fall - green, yell
low, red and white-loss Of color Is
more likely to occur in cooking the
Reeu group. This is best avoided
by cooking the vegetables by the
following method: Drop into q
laege amount Of boiling water and
cook for as short time as possible.
Il IS also important to avoid over
cooking Of white vegetables, as this
causes them to darken.

Improving Vegetables

The subject of vegetable cookery
Il practically an inexhaustible one.
There are so many varieties OF veg
etables and so many ways of serving
them that it is almost an endless
subject. Then, too, there is no other
food product which can be so easily
SPOILED by improper cooking. There
are three important factors to be
considered in cooking vegetables
reservation of color, of flavor and
Of nutrients.

Surprise, Senators

To say that the Senate was surprised when President Franklin D. Roosevelt sent to its august body yesterday the nomination of Senator Hugo L, Black to fill the vacancy on the U. s. Supreme Court bench caused by the retirement of Willis Van Devanter is putting it mildly. Just read the comments of some of the boys and you'll know what we mean. There was the customary approval and disapproval, but behind the polite re- marks was a sort of stupefaction. Some how or other the small talk about Sem ator Blacks chances of being appointed justice hadn't caught the popular fancy in Washington
 The Presidents action will end for all time discussion of recess appointment. It should bring to head, too, the claim that no successor to Justice Van Devan- ter can be named as he has not resigned his post but merely has retired. To tell the truth, though, there isn't likely to be much said or done about this angle of the situation. Certainly Justice Van Devan- ter is finished with his judicial duties and no exception can be taken to any action in naming somebody to take his place.
 As to Senator Blacks ability, like all such appointments where the appointee comes from political ranks 1t is open to discussion. There Is no doubt about the mans ability along various lines He has demonstrated 1t on many occasions, notably in the field of senatorial probes He has been an indefatigable worker in the interests of better government where it has been proved or rather claimed that abuses existed. If this be qualification for elevation to our highest court, then Senator Blacks ok. As a matter of strict fact he may prove to be very valuable addition to the court. We certainly hope he will be.

Edith Wharton

Writings from the pen of Edith Whar- ton have been intermittent since 1899 when "The Great Inclination" appeared. Born Edith Jones in New York City the novelist at 23 married Edward Wharton, banker, and since that time in the liter ary world, of which she was no little part in the chronicling of the so-called "mauve decade" she has been known as Edith Wharton.
 Her first fame came when "The House of Mirth" was written In 1905. This nov el was one of the most talked of in tha: period. Mrs. Wharton was child of wealth. She knew New York society, It's shallowness and It's commendable fea- lures. From the time she first started to write she achieved success her first novel appearing in 1902. First real fame, how ever, was following "The House of Mirth," a sharp and effective portrayal of society of that period. She likewise wrote com pellingly of New England for example Ethan Frome," bitter tale of frustra- ton. In 1920 came her Age of Inno- cence" which won for her the Pulitzer prize. Although Mrs. Wharton spent much time abroad the American scene was the background for her writings for the most part.
 Since 1928 she has written "The Chil- dren," Certain People" and "Backword Glance" Hudson River Bracketed," If we recall, also comes within that period. Edith Wharton devoted herself consider ably to war relief work, for which she was decorated by both France and Bel giun. Mrs. Wharton died in France, her second home, at Chateau Brce Sur Foret yesterday at the age of seventy-five. She had splendid talent, and a gift for story narration. One enjoyed her keen man. 1er of writing and exceptional literary style.

gets it. There is obviously new quarrel about state rights in the making here. And another problem for the Supreme Court. If there is as much oil as many oil men believe there is, under the Gulf, or under any other public waters of this country, 1t is certainly matter of large interest to Uncle Sam. With good luck, mineral and legal, he might pay off lot of that national debt with 1t.
 There is another variation of the same problem, with @ good example for the moment in Ohio. There is gas, too, under water. Cleveland is planning to drill un- der Lake Erie for gas to supply the city. How far could this sort of thing go? Nobody knows. There might be more oil and gas underneath seas and lakes than there is under solid ground.

Parking

One of the biggest of the automobile problems still unsolved, observes Charles F. Kettering, famous automotive engineer, is that of parking in cities. Hardly any city has yet faced this problem frankly and dealt with it successfully. He points out the unwisdom of cluttering up busy streets with parked cars, maintaining that it would be far cheaper for the cities to provide parking lots than to supply ex- pensively improved streets for parking purposes. Traffic capacity could be almost doubled, he says, by eliminating the park ing and using the streets for travel only.
 It would probably take quite struggle to accomplish any such change in any city. Among other reasons, there is the business of parking cars commercially, in private lots or garages, which becomes g vested interest that is hard to dislodge. When the city of Cleveland built great underground garage beneath a public park, to serve its Public Auditorium, 1t was enjoined from operation for many months by a. lawsuit brought by owners of private garages in the neighborhood. They maintained that the city had mo right to compete with them"

Aefonautics Commissioner Charles L. Morris has taken prudent stand in ban ming all flights by model planes that are propelled by gasolines. This may be a blow to youthful air enthusiasts, but nev- ertheless 1t is only the proper stand for a public official to take. There is too much danger involved in launching a small air. craft that uses gasoline as fuel and may fly unbelievable distances through the air and ultimately land on top of somebody's house or barn and set 1t ahre Only mod el planes propelled by elastic bands will be allowed in the future in Connecticut.

Oil Under Water

As petroleum reserves diminish on land, 1t may be that we shall find others as great in the sea. This possibility, sug- gested for some years in California, is now a live issue on the Gulf Coast. In Ala banna, Mississippi, Louisiana and Texas there is a prospect of what a New Orleans expert calls drilling operations such as the world has never seen" In various places there is unquestionably oil, and a lot of 1t, under the Gulf. The inland wells proceed to the shore line, then keep right on out to sea. Where there Is no solid bottom, derricks, boiler houses and ma. chinery are mounted on barges sunk at the drilling site, then raised again when it is necessary to change the location
 Miles of walk-ways are built so that the "web-footed" oil workmen can get around.
 4 serious legal question arises. Is this oil under state of federal jurisdiction? If state, then the state governments get the royalties. If not, the federal government

Selected Poem
REGRET

REGRET (A. c. in the Poets Corner, Hartford Times When life was. strange, and blithe and new, little thought that should rue
 The day cast you of But now that years have left their stress, And Steel-ribbed phantonis swell and press The ache within my breast, Why do you come, with starry eyes, And mock me as c dream that dieS
 When clutched by the awaking mind Your azure eyes, and pale.goid hair, Your slender form are still as fair,
 As May-timeS fragile howerS Yet come not near, cannot brook, The torture of your distant look,
 Like forcepS at wound. I'd rather live in yapid mood, And never glance behind, where stood,
 The clay bowl of my fate. When, lured by many vagrant whirn. tossed 1t lightly of the brim,
 Of discordant universe.
