Brown sugar Is not suitable for
home canning, because it overpow-

Freezing takes approximately l
pound of sugar to or 4 pounds of
fruit. The special purpose of dry
sugar added to fruit for freezing is
to draw out juice enough to dissolve
the sugar and cover the fruit. In the
case of less Juicy fruit, sugar goes
farther when prepared in a sirup
and this is satisfactory for most
kinds of fruit.
Juicy fruit such as Strawberries
or sour cherries are best packed with
dry sugar.
"A few fruits may be frozen with
out sugar. These, however, include
such tart kinds as rhubarb and
cranberries, which must have their
share of sweetening eventually, for
good eating"

EVENINGS OUT.
From Mrs. E. W., Washtncton.)
Mrs. B. M. asked for an opinion
on husband and wives separate eve
ming out and. of course. she Is right
in saying opinion" and not "deci-
sion" as every one must act on such
questions only as he feels best
Speaking for us and most of our
friends, we feel that we married
because we are companionable and
liked to do thinks together. To
drop this sociability as soon as the
first baby comes seems preposterous.
After all, If husband works all day,
how much time for companionship
is left?
Baby sitters may come high, but
I would sacrifice other things first
I've not had any domestic help for
five years just so I could pay baby
sitters without having to worry
about the cost of an evening out
And I don't know of anyone who
dislikes housework more than I do
But then my standards are very low
so I don't work too hard and have
plenty of time to write letters to
RCH tmy favorite reading)!
I do know people who figure the
cost of entertainment versus new
rug of a new playsuit for Johnny
but to me the intangibles are the
most important and would rather
go on vacation to see new place
than have new slip covers. In fact
I believe the luxuries in life are
the only real necessities.
However, If there really isn't any
place to pinch pennies to afford
baby sitters, why not do as others
have done and have a baby-sitting
exchange among yourselves? You
sit for one evening week and I'll
sit for you. Even though you would
be separated from your husband or
wife in order to "sit" 1t would have
the compensation of being together
on your evening out.
Is 1t possible that these women
only pretend baby sitting problem
because they prefer to go out stag?
I wouldn't join that sorority If
were Mrs. B. M. How you and your
husband feel about 1t is your only
consideration: so go your own way
and the others 60 theirs.

The Chef Saws

truly perfect French dinner, com.
parable to that served u the best
|prewar French restaurants. A
member Of the Soup had a cher.
ished menu from Joseph's, In Paris,
in his possession and from this the
dinner was chosen. Translated, here
/ 1t is:
Pea Pod Soup
Blue Trout
Fried Parsley, Steamed Potatoes
EHtrecote, Sauce Bedrnaise
Green Beans Broiled Mushrooms
Nulad OF Baby Lettuce Leaves,
French Dressing
Basket OF Fruit Various Cheeses
Coffee
A fine Riesling wine, Just chilled,
accompanied the trout. AS the
weather was warm, we compromised
on a Bordeaux rather than Bur-
gundy with the beef entrecote. This
was repeated with the fruit and
cheese.
To make the pea pod soup, one
OF the group, who has a garden In
which the young tender peas were
just coming into pod, contributed
about 8 pounds. These were strung,
as you would beans, washed well
and put. in the pods, In q kettle
with ! onion cut up, 2 or 3 pota-
toes and water to cover. A sprig
or two of mint was added for
extra flavor and a good seasoning
of salt and pepper.
The peas were boiled Just until
the potatoes were soft and then
the whole mass pressed through q
sieve to remove all the green pulp.
The soup was replaced in a pan,
boiled up and, while hot, poured
over the yolk of an egg. A little
fresh butter was added just before
serving the soup with golden squares
of Melba toast.
The fresh brook trout were con-
tributed by another member of the
group who brought them In Just
in time for cooking. Waiting for
them was bountiful court bouillon
"a mixture Of water with some
herbs such as chervil, bay leaf
and little thyme, with quite q
bit of vinegar.
The trout were cleaned quickly,
fastened nose to tail and dipped
into pure vinegar, which blues them,
and then dropped into the rapidly
boiling court bouillon. Then, just
as soon as the liquid came to a
boil again, the pan was removed
from the fire, covered and permitted
to stand for is minutes. The hsh
were removed carefully, drained and
served with the fried parsley and
potatoes. Should YOU wish other
recipes in the menu, write me in

ing stamped, self-addressed en-

magic enchantment to food. may
sound embittered about picnics,
which Is natural, because I am en-
bittered. Picnics. as such, are my pet
hate.
I A well-organzied affair on the
terrace or at swimming pool, with
an open air oven or barbecue pit
Is something else again. There ma
ture isn't half so raw and the food
preparation is relatively mild. Nice
hot dishes can be served without a
flank attack by a colony Of ants and
the potato salad will not number
Icaterpillars among its ingredients.
One of the best things to cook
outdoors is fish. (By the way, Ii you
like planked fare for your outdoor
feasts, I still have some Of those
leaflets giving recipes for various
lplanked foods. If you'll send me a
stamped. self-addressed envelope
with your name and request, In
care Of this paper, I'll be glad to
mail you set)
Here's. one OF my .favorite outdoor
fish recipes, which comes directly
from Hawaii-where they know all
there is to know about such matters.
Get, say three f1sh-snappers, weak
fish, mackerel or striped bass-clean
them and wipe them thoroughly dry.
Have ready some green corn husks,
from which the ear has been re-
moved, leaving the husks whole and
empty. Sprinkle the husks inside
and out with salt, tuck a fish in
each husk and wrap tight. Tie with
a cord If necessary. Put these into
a roasting pan with three cups water
to which a little lemon juice has
been added, Bake in a very hot, pre-
heated outdoor oven for Is to 20
minutes. They should be basted very
often. Serve directly in the husks.
If you don't have a terrace oven,
use two frying pans, one topping
the other, on top OF the fire.
Another good one features skew
cred fish. Use any small fish. Clean
them well, but do not cut off the
heads and tails. Dry them we'll. Then
rub them all over with bacon, salt
and pepper. Use regular shish-kabeb
skewers or 3-foot lengths Of green
wood. sharpened at the end. Thread
the fish and pieces OF bacon on
this alternately. then hold over
glowing Goals. t,trning constantly
so that juices keep rolling over the
fish, Serve promptly, with more lem

Report to the Housewife


As Violet Faulkner, our food ed
itor, doesn't return until next week
from her tour of Army posts, I'll GO
to bat again today.
.a As a matter of fact, there doesn't
seem much use In telling you about
the markets this week end, as you
have undoubtedly stocked up on your
picnic or beach cottage items. and
are practically on your way. But for
those of you who will be In town,
and plan to market on Saturday,
there1l be plenty of everything
available, I'm told.
In addition to the seasons first
watermelons, being trucked In from
Florida, there are some excellent
acantaloupes and beautiful Bing and
sTartarian cherries arriving. Oregon
pears are pretty good, too, and the
pineapples from Cuba are recon-
mended. Nearly all vegetables are
to be had, with peas, asparagus and
corn particularly nice. Meats will be
about the same as last week, and
the poultrymerb will offer fine frying
chickens, young turkeys, and ducks.
Fish shows little change-it never
seems too popular over holiday
week end.
l. AS you know by now, No. II sugar
stamp is valid, and you can buy
sugar on Saturday instead of wait
ing until next week. Apropos OF
this, here is some more information
on the sugar situation. just released
by the Department of Agriculture
"It Is up to the homemaker who
plans to can or freeze fruit this
summer to apportion her sugar from
the family sugar bin.
"Homemakers are being urged to
cash outstanding sugar rations as
quickly AS possible, to help ease
transportation difficulties caused by
the estimated billion bushel winter
wheat crop. Stamp II is good, and
stamp IL is good now, too. Each
calls for 10 pounds of sugar.
"A minimum OF IS pounds-instead
of last years Is pound total-of
sugar will be issued as household
rations this year. but no stamps are
being specially labeled home can
ming stamps" The sugar for home
food preservation must come out of
the IS pounds, However, If all other
home sugar uses were equal to 1916,
f1omemakers would have 20 pounds
of sugar per person for home can
ming in 1947 as against 10 pounds
In 1916.
'As help In budgeting sugar for
home canning and freezing, here
are pointers from home economists
of the United States Department of
Agriculture.
For those who do a lot of can
ming, the familiar wartime rule still
represents economical use of sugar.
This calls for averaging l pound of
sugar tabout cups to quarts of
home canned fruit. which provides
a moderately thin sirup. If tart
fruits need more than their share
