The Waterbury Democrat., 1938-07-15
(BY BEATRICE HALL)

As the garden season advances and fresh vegetables and fruits be- come more plentiful, meals get bet ter and better, and in general cheaper. Meat prices may not vary so much with the season, but the vegetable items in the grocery bill need not run into such figures now as in midWinter. In fact, some of the winter luxuries will soon come on the table almost as matter of course.
 It is always possible, however, &C., cording to the Bureau of some Eco- monies of the United States De- partment of Agriculture, to have meals of equal food value at very different levels of cost. No one menu can be proposed as the cheapest in all localities at any one time, since prices vary too much from place to place. But with due consideration of the family pref erences, as well as food value and variety in flavor, texture and color, the low-cost meal, well planned, can be as attractive as the expen- sive one, especially in the spring and summer.
 Compare these menus, for exam pie: For a top of the season meal, chosen today without reference to cost, in almost any large market, 1. Roast leg of veal with baked stuff fed Bermuda onions, buttered new potatoes and peas, mixed green salad with radishes and Roquefort dressing, strawberry shortcake with whipped cream. Or 2. Taking an- other meat delicacy, have roast duckling with plain or apricot stuffing, creamed new potatoes, buttered asparagus, a salad of shredded new cabbage and raw car rots, with young onions and tart maonnaise, fresh pineapple and sponge cake for dessert. The cost of such meals would vary, generally speaking with the progress of spring from south to north-in oth- CT words, with the distance from garden to market or the stage of the local gardens.
 But some other combinations of

 Manners

EATING OLIVES & PICKLE6- with the pits in shouldluetaoin-
 Whether large or small, olives with the pits in should be eaten bite by bite, not popped whole into the mouth and chewed from the stone. The small stuffed Manzanilla olives make a mod est bite and may be eaten whole; the jumbo stuffed olives may re- quire piecemeal handling.
 Small whole pickles such as gherkins and small sweet or sour pickles may be taken 1 nthe fin- gers that ahe fairly dry and crisp. Long, juicy slices of dill pickle and other varieties con- parable to it are conveniently eaten with the fork. But do not feel called upon to use knife to carve the pickle. If too hard to break into bits with the fork, it is usually of the tye that can be taken in the fingers.
 Sliced or mixed pickles in oil or sauce are, of course, eaten with the fork. Likewise such pickles as melon rinds, stuffed mangoes, pickled crabapples and peaches.

 Asparagus is still quite good, and may be with us for a few weeks longer. Try preparing 1t this way be- for the season is over: Cook the asparagus not too tender) in boiling salted water; drain and dip each stalk separately in beaten egg, then in crumbs seasoned with salt and pepper. Fry in deep fat; drain on brown paper, serve very hot, with or without a rich cream sauce or cheese sauce.
 Ice cream is very fine and whole some food, and eat your share of 1t, but do not always make ice cream; now and then remember the fruit ices-this one, with its cool mint flavor:

 teaching, a large amount of the vitamins in the diet of childhood perhaps even before three years of age-is thought to in- crease resistance to infection among children 10 to 12 years of age.
 In their experiments, scientists have found that too little vitamin Alone of the most important of the vitamins - not only retards growth, but causes many physi- cal disabilities. This is the vita min that is most abundant dur ing the summer season so for a moment let us review its sources, and determine to in- clude generous quantities of it in daily menus planned for little folks.
 Escarole, spinach, kale, lettuce, turnip, beet or mustard greens are exceptionally rich in vitamin A; green beans, peas and pep pers, also the yellow foods-car- rots, rutabagas, tomatoes, eggs, contain large amounts of 1t; so do liver and milk.
 Animals obtain their supply of vitamin A from plants they eat and can store large reserves of it, particularly in the liver, which explains why liver is a rich vitamin A food for us. It is not surprising that milk and eggs contain quantities of 1t, for the hen eats voraciously of green food; the COW consumes quanti- ties of leafy foods, alfalfa, clover and grass which transfer their vitarnins to the milk.
 To add to your own store of recipes using foods rich in vita min A, let me give you these good ones for children's menus:
 Steamed Kale
 Remove stringy parts of the ribs of kale; wash the tender parts thoroughly in several waters, drain and cut in small pieces. For one quart of kale use three tablespoons butter, melted in a saucepan; add the kale, cover and cook slowly for IS to 20 minutes. Thicken slightly with four and butter, add half cup cream and stir until thickened and smoothly blended. Season with salt and serve at once with riced pota- toes and grilled bacon, meat patty or a lamb chop.

Vegetable Variety
 Makes Meal Cheaper
Menus Better and Better as Garden Season Advances
 LOW=COst Meal May Be Made Attractive

foods might be cheaper than either of these menus. For a loW-cost meal of corresponding food value, choose a cheaper cut of meat, the cheaper vegetables of each type, the cheaper fruit, and omit expen- sive dressings or "frills." This can be done without sacrificing either food value or the desirable con- trasts in flavor, texture, and color.
 For a seasonable low-cost menu begin with tomato juice cocktail which is in place any time of year. Make it from the juice strained from a can of tomatoes and seasoned as desired; for meat, a stuffed shoulder of veal instead of the leg, Drowned potatoes, shredded new cabbage quick cook ed in milk, or, If preferred, spring greens quick cooked and seasoned with crisp salt pork or bits of ba- con. For dessert a rhubarb pie. With generous portions of each dish, and hot biscuits or corn bread, this is good square meal, well balanced, and well planned. It is simpler than the more expensive menus, but it matches them in food essentials.
 In all thre of these menus, be it noted, we follow the pattern for a well balanced diet, which calls for CD milk or cheese, CD vegetables and fruits, (3) meat, fish, poultry or eggs, (4) breadstuffs or cereals, (5) fats and sugars.
 A well planned meal does more, however, than satisfy nutritional requirements. It provides variety in texture, flavor and color, so the foods will taste and look different from each other, and make an at- tractive combination.

Food Should Be Attractive
 To See And Taste As Good
By WILDA HOYT.

In an endeavor to make foods that are good for my readers interest ing to them, I am constantly going over the files of recipes as well as having my cook try out new things suggested by her own inventive mind. You see, it is so necessity to like-to be attracted by-these foods that are known to be of benefit. To eat even the best food on schedule, as dose, 8 duty, instead of be- cause 1t really appeals to us, is to lose half its value.

GREET! CORN CHOWDER

Cook four cups potatoes in boiling salted water until tender, but not too soft. In two table spoons butter soften two table spoons minced onion and one tablespoon minced green pepper. Retain one cup of the water the potatoes were cooked in; add onion, pepper, two cups green corn cut from the cob, one quart of rich milk, and bring to boiling point. Let simmer very slowly for 10 min- utes. Season with salt and pepper, add half cup top milk or thin cream, toss in a handful of oyster crackers, sprinkle minced parsley over each serving.

cumber rings, diced celery, diced green pepper, shrimp or crabmeat are the flavors which combine with the grapefruit to make this the bright and particular star of the menu.
