Use More Vegetables!
Bv Louis Dtat

World famous Chef OF NeD York's
Dtdt'S Home Cook Book" CUES
When puzzled housewives beg me
to help them in putting as good food
on their tables, and as much of 1t, in
spite of rising food costs, I'm sure
to say, use more vegetables" " Why?
Because most American housewives
are apt to overlook the great posi-
bilities that lie in fresh vegetables
1t has been so easy in years gone
by when meat was plentiful and in
expensive to settle for meat and
potato" meals. Particularly way
back when we didn't have the quick,
efficient methods of round
transportation of vegetables that
now brings fresh garden produce
daily from all over the country to
our local markets.
Right now meat is high priced
and not all kinds and all cuts are
continuously available. Vegetables,
on the other hand, are plentiful
and relatively cheap. And except
for a few seasonal specialties like
asparagus. we can buy all kinds of
vegetables all the time, since differ
ent sections of the country supply
them to us as the seasons roll
around. The trick. therefore, is for
you budget-wise cooks to learn more
and tastier ways of preparing these
delicious gifts of nature. Then you
will be able to serve smaller por-
tions of the more expensive meat
and will be able to use up odd bits
of leftover meat in combination
dishes.
Always remember that when a
vegetable is most plentiful in the
market. It Is usually at it's cheapest
and, what is even more important,
1t Is at its best. That is the time
to use it more often, avoiding repe-
titious monotony by trying new
ways of preparing it. And always
try, too. to have some tricks up your
sleeve for using up leftover meat
with vegetables in season. Too
often it is not the actual cost Of the
individual foods that makes your
meals expensive, it Is what you
waste that runs up the bills. And
who would know that better than
one whose business it is to run a
restaurant? A chef can serve the
finest food at reasonable price If
food waste in the kitchen can be
eliminated. Your famous Benjamin
Franklin, one-time Ambassador to
my native France, many years ago
said, ITS the little leaks that sink
the Ship and I think it is still true.
And now don't tell me that your
family won't eat vegetables. Be-

cause If that Is the case I'm sure
you have not been putting enough
care into their preparation. A life
time of catering to gourmets in
Ritz Hotels in Paris, London and
New York has proven to me that
well-prepared vegetables never &c
begging. In fact, that is why the
vegetable chapter in my recent
book, Louis Diat's Home Cook
Book" a book of practical French
cooking for American families pub
lished by Lippincott Co., Phila-
delphia, Pa is one of its longest
chapters. The following recipes,
taken from its pages are q few
suggestions for balancing your food
budget by using more vegetables.
STUFFED CABBAGE.
1 cabbage, preferably Savoy.
"a pound pork sausage meat.
4 pound leftover meat.
2 tablespoons fresh bread crumbs
l cup cooked rice.
Glove garlic, crushed.

Wash cabbage, remove stem. put
in boiling water and parboil 10 min
utes. Drain and plunge into cold
water. Drain again in a colander
with stem end up so that all the
water will run out. Prepare stuff1ng
by mixing together all the remain
ing ingredients except the slices of
pork. Place cabbage stem end
down in a bowl and carefully cut
out the hard center core leaving,
however, a base at the bottom to
hold in the stuffing. Sprinkle salt
and pepper through the leaves.
Fill the cavity with the stuffing and
also fill in the spaces between the
leaves. Wrap the pork fat slices
around the cabbage and tie all to-
gether securely with string.
Spread l sliced carrot and l sliced
onion in the bottom of casserole,

the height of the cabbage. Bring

skim off fat and cook until reduced
to about l cup. Add any leftover
meat gravy that may be on hand.
Pour sauce around cabbage. Serves
6 to 8.

MUSHROOM SOUP WITH
PORK CHOPS.

(From Mrs. L. E. p, Washington.)
In answer to Mrs. K. T's request
for recipe using condensed mush-
room soup with pork chops. The
following Is one of my favorites
which has been passed on and used
by many of my friends. Brown
seasoned pork chops thoroughly on
both sides in a hot skillet. (The
browning is very important as this
both flavors and colors the gravy
Remove them from frying pan.
Mince up small onion and brown
in the fat. Remove some of the
fat if there is too much in PAM
Then return chops to pan, and over
them, pour a can of condensed
mushroom soup which has been di-
luted with about one can of water.
Cover skillet and allow chops to
simmer over slow fire until tender.
This will require about "a or l hour.
During the period change the chops
which have been on the bottom of
the pan, to the top, so that all will
be thoroughly cooked. Also some
times, more water may have to be
added. Those in my \family like
them cooked until very tender. When
the chops have been cooked as
above, they will be in a thick brown
mushroom gravy which goes so well
with mashed potatoes. vegetable
and salad. Try 1t and no doubt
you will be passing this recipe on
to your friends as I have been for
about fifteen years.

From Mrs. M. r. C.. Silper Spring.
After reading the second COM
plant against telephone soliciting
in recent paper I couldn't refrain
from answering. presume these
two women never worked in their
life. If they did and had to do any
kind of contact work, even with
fellow Office workers, and were
treated rudely, they were the first
to complain.
I also have children and do my

find that it takes only a minute to
be courteous. After ali it is
minute or two of relaxation that
you'd not take otherwise, and if you
are courteous go back to your work
with a better feeling. Don't forget
they are working for their living,
the same as your husband or chill

cut dead any one who was delib-
erately rude to them in their busi-

BUILT-IN BOARD:
CANNING FAILURES?
n c.. M. Glenn Dale. !

fFTOTD L. NJ :, OtcHU DuGc.J
To Mrs. A. M. H., Riverdale.
(Built-in ironing boardD Thanks to
other readers for the advice given
in the spring about canning. BY all
means have built-in ironing board
if it is at all possible. 1t saves steps
and space and I, for one, think it
is the best life saver ever invented.
Have used one for about 10 years
and would not be without one for
anything; before that I used the one
that was always stored in closet
and didn't like it at all.
Sorry that I waited so long to
thank all of the readers who gave
me advise about canning beans. l
bought pressure cooker, and never
used one before, I haven't had any
success with it, but know it must be
my very own fault. Lost all aSpara-
gus. beans, corn and okra, even to-
matoes that I have canned this
summer. A total of about so or
more jars in all. Had friend who
claimed to be an expert with pres
sure cookers to explain 1t all to me
and try to find out my mistake, but
so far no luck. I have used glass
Jars with the two-piece tops. And
sure have tried to follow the rules
in the canning book to the letter.
Where is my mistake, can any one
tell me? I really have the things to
can in my garden but hate to work
and then have them spoil.
PUZZLES?

consist of six or seven ivory rings
sliding on and off an eight-inch

homes against Indians.
PLANT EXCHANGE?
from Mrs. A. r. B., Siluer SPRING.
I have few leaves of the Glox-
inia plant I would gladly trade for
pink or white African violets, or
other Gloxinia plants. Mine are
pink and white, with the red center.

and made braid which she nailed
high on her closet door for clothes

Speaking of clothespins, have you

They are really superior: they take

RELIGIOUS INSTRUcTloN

There is considerable discussion,
throughout the country, of the practice
Of many schools which release pupils from
classes one period week in order that
the children may secure religious instruc-
ton.
For some reason there has grown up
an idea that since schools do not give
religious instruction it is important that
the churches of the nation attend to the
job. There is nothing wrong with this rea-
soning but we cannot understand why it
Is assumed that the churches cannot do
this unless the pupils are released to them
on school time.
Since most schools operate only five
days week and only part of the time
each day, Il would appear logical to be-
ljeve that ample time exists for the aver
age pupil to receive religious instruction
without infringing on the time Of the
schools. To believe anything else implies
that the churches caaaet get pupils to at
tend religious instruction classes unless
they receive, as compensation, release
from recitation in schools.
