For 1914, as a whole, Miss Per-
kins said, food costs went up two
tenths of one per cent over the

Ex-Faetory Worker
Is Sought as Slayer
OF Captain 5 Wife
BY tn. Associated Press.

PONTIAC, Mich, Nov. 3.--A 2s-
year-old Detroit man, once accused
of having defrauded Mrs. Alberta
Rose Young OF several thousand
dollars during the absence of her
Army officer husband, was charged
today with staying the attractive
brunette.
Larry j. Theis. who at one time
worked with Mrs. Young in De-
troit factory, was charged in a war
rant with first-degree murder.
Mrs. Young.s body, a bullet hole
In the head was found caught on a
rock in the Clinton River near here
last Wednesday. The 35-year -old
woman was the second Oakland
County woman murder victim with
In q three-week period.
Bank Account Shrunk.
Police obtained a warrant against
Theis after an investigation showed
Mrs. Young's bank account had
gone down from $3,1s1.69 to only
$l68 within a few months.
Mrs. Young, police said, had been
advised. shortly before her death
that her husband was returning
soon from overseas.
Capt. Donald S. Leonard Of the
State police said he estimated that
Theis owed Mrs, Young $4,000 at
the time of her death. He said she
apparently was disturbed over the
prospects of accounting for her de-
pleted bank account to her husband,
Capt. Franklin Young. .
A Nationwide search for Theis
was instituted Immediately after is
Suance of the warrant.
Mrs. Young field charges last June
I against Theis, Detective 1t. James
II. Porter said, accusing him Of OBJ
tanning money from her under false
pretenses. He quoted her as saying
she loaned money to Theis to pur-
chase an automobile. K
Woman Sought Settlement.
Shortly after Theis was arrested,
1t. Porter said, Mrs. Young came to
the station and said she wanted to
make q settlement-that she had tor
have money when her husband came
home"
He said Theis and the woman con-
ferred in another room and when
Theis agreed to make restitution, he
was released and charges were
dropped.
A State police detective, Olin
Williamson, said Mrs. Young had
given Theis money for a first pay
ment on an automobile and later
$500 more to prevent repossession.
She then took title to the car, he
said, and sold it. 1t. Porter also
said Mrs. Young had purchased an
other car for Theis.

Capt. Leonard said he would re-
lease Andrew Schevchenko, 70-year-
old father of Mrs. Thompson, who

Strawberry Jam Hints

with an equal measure of honey IN
jams, jellies or preserves; replace up
to quarter the sugar with an
equal measure of corn sirup in jams
or jellieS, or replace half the sugar
in preserves with an equal measure
of corn sirup.
Jam is the easiest of strawberry
spreads to make, and comparatively
economical, since it can be made
from the sound but ripper, less per-
fectly shaped, and less uniformly
sized berries.
One secret in making good straw
berry jam is to use wide, shallow
kettle, and to cook in small patches.
Speedy jammaking helps hold the
natural bright color and flavor of
the berries and cuts down on loss of
their vitamin c.
For easy-to-make strawberry jam,
the. home economists suggest the
following recipe:
Strawberry Jam: Two quarts ber-
ries, l 70 pounds sugar, to l u table
spoons lemon juice. Wash the ber-
ries, drain, cap and pick out the
largest. Take about 2 cups of the
smaller fruit, crush it and add the
sugar. Cook this rapidly in an
enameled saucepan and stir until
the sugar is dissolved and a thick
sirup is formed. Add the remainder
of the fruit and continue the rapid
cooking, stirring frequently to pre-
vent Scorching. An asbestos mat
under the pan will help prevent
scorching. Cook for 20-30 minutes,
or until fairly thick, then add the
lemon juice. Pour into hot sterilized
jars, seal and store in a cool place.

The spring crop Of Strawberries
offers early inspiration for jam ses-
sions, and jelly and preserve max
ing.
Strawberry supplies for the coun-
try as a whole are not expected to
be large-though bigger than last
year. But if there are berries at
hand, and strawberry spreads are
special favorites with the family,
some Of the extra sugar which the
1945 canning ration allows for
sweet spreads and relishes, may be
measured out to put up a few jars
Besides having flavor appeal, fruit
sweets are useful spreads for bread
when table fats are scarce or red
ration points are low.
To stretch sugar in strawberry
spreads, home economists of the
United States Department of Agri-
culture suggest:
l. Use the minimum amount.
Many jelly recipes call for y to l
part sugar for every part by meas
ure of fruit juice. Use the q cup
sugar to l cup juice proportion
Most jams and preserves call for
equal parts by weight of sugar and
fruit, but satisfactory spreads, with
more natural fruit flavor, can be
made with y as much sugar. With
Y part sugar to part fruit, pound
of sugar is enough for about 1872
pints, or 6 jelly glasses of strawberry
jam, though yields may vary widely
with cooking method and time, pee
tin content and so on.
2. Or use some honey or corn
sirup. Replace up to half the sugar

Eggs With
asparagus

Reading a new book the other
day, Egg Cookery" by Lily Hax-
worth Wallace, published by M.
Barrows &, Co. of New York, I found
recipe for eggs and asparagus
au gratin" that so intrigued me,
put it to the test that very evening.
It's wonderful combination of two
timely foods.
Mrs. Wallace suggests for this
particular dish that you melt u cup
of diced or grated cheese and IL
cups of thin white sauce and sea-
son it rather highly with salt and
pepper. Have ready 4 hard-cooked
eggs, cut in halves, and a small can
of asparagus tips. Il used the fresh
asparagus now in season, of course)
The asparagus must be well
drained and arranged around the
eggs in a shallow baking dish. The
sauce is poured over them and the
top sprinkled with a little more
diced cheese mixed with y cup of
buttered crumbs. The dish is put
into a moderate oven and kept there
until it has heated through and the
top is Drowned. THE v. c."

Book, put out by a committee of the

factors attendant upon a returning

tat back. Then they are drained and
served with salt, pepper, q bit Of
butter and a dash of lemon Juice.
Or, II you want to make them into
q wilted salad, select the youngest
leaves you can find, wash and
drain them. Cook 3 slices Of bacon,
diced until crisp, and add 8 table,
spoons Of vinegar to the hot fat.
Pour the bacon bits and the hot
liquid directly over the dandelion
leaves, add salt and pepper to taste
and serve in a big salad bowl.
Other greens that lend themselves
nicely to the "wilted" treatment in
clude young leafy lettuce, endive,
young spinach and the very tender
tops of the tiny beets from your
victory garden.
Dock greens, long narrow leaves
That usually can be found close to
c!umps. of dandelions, have an espe-
clally nice flavor Of their own when
properly cooked. They should be
cooked quickly, like spinach, with or
without a small piece of salt pork.
Serve them dressed with salt, pepper
and melted butter.
Sorrel is well known for its MANY
unexpectedly in making that de-
lightful French favorite, Sorrel soup.
1t also may be cooked like spinach
and dressed with butter, salt, pep
per and a little cream. We do not
have the space to give you the Sor-
rel soup recipe here, but If you would
like it, drop me a line in care of The
Star, inclosing a stamped, self-ad-
dressed envelope, and I'll be glad to
mail it to you.
Other edible wild greens include
the marsh marigold or cowsi,p,
lamb's-foot or plantain, lambs
quarters or goosefoot, corn salad or
lamb's-lettuce, poke salad-just the
brand-new pink shoots-and dozens
of others, more or less unfamiliar to
most of us.
But it is fun to get out on lovely
day and gather your dinner as you

what you are picking!
