 AS for the Maxwell'sf gardening efforts. we find this Glacier Creek bed a tough proposition. Harold picked out the spot for his straw berries over year and half ago. This spring he discovered that un- der the top soil at that place were about twelve rotting trees from fourteen to twenty inches in diam eter. which he has pushed over ways and piled with tractor after which he planted about four dozen strawberry plants and vari- ous vegetables. Our vegetables, ex- cept for the parsley and radishes, have not done so we'll, but we do expect strawberries next year! The soil and gravel and glacier muck run in streaks out here, and we have much studying of the earth yet to do to discover what the soil needs to successfully produce.

Have you noticed how the styles
in food have changed in the past
few years? The food manufacturers
say they have to keep pace with the
demands of the modern woman, and
then add, There's no telling what
they are going to ask for next!
The general trend, of course, is to-
ward convenience and time-savine
in meal preparation. Today's house
wife wants to serve her family good
nourishing meals with minimum
of time expended in the effort and
still keep food costs down to a rea-
sonable level.
There has been widespread and
rapidly growing use of all the ready
mixes for pancakes, biscuits, ginger
bread, mullins and cakes. The new
crop of homemakers, as well as the
more experienced hands, have found
that these ready mikes can be used
to turn out a surprising number OF
dishes. Take a package OF pan
cake mix, for instance; the varia-
tions possible with this batter are
endless. Pancakes themselves are a
versatile dish because you can serve
them for breakfast, lunch or dinner.
Regardless of the way you intend
serving them, there are few point

There is no better way of using
up cold leftover meat than in a
real Madras curry. This is a spicy,
tangy affair and, if served with a
good chutney and the usual curry
accompaniments, makes a real feast
out of a simple dinner.
To begin with, chop up 2 medium
sized onions and brown them in 4
cup of butter margarine will do. .
Add Il cup minced raw ham Cor
some deviled ham if you don't have
the first) and blend we'll. Cook for
five minutes. Be careful not to let
the mixture scorch.
Slice leeks and add them, along
with IS whole black peppers, a tea
spoon or so of celery salt, 8 cloves.
a little thyme, 2 teaspoons salt and
2 or more tablespoons curry pow
der-watch this for it may be too
hot for your taste; readjust proper
tions accordingly. Pour in 2 cups
of beef bouillon and bring to boil.
Let simmer for about 20 minutes.
Remove the sauce from the stove
and mash it smooth through a
sieve. Put slices of cold meat-beef,
lamb or pork-in the sauce and let
soak at room temperature for four
or more hours.
When ready to serve, remove the
meat to platter and reheat the
curry, adding 2 beaten egg yolks
and "a cup of fresh cream. Stir
until thick, then pour over the slices
of meat and serve at once with
fluffy steamed rice.
The accompanying condiments
could include chopped bacon,
chopped peanuts. shredded coconut,
a good India mango chutney-the
speciality stores have fine imports
now-Bombay duck (really dried
fish, also available in the speciality
shops), chopped green onions and
chopped hard-cooked egg. These
are all passed in separate little
dishes or If you have one of the
divided hors d'oeuvres platters, you
may use that with great success.
Each guest makes his choice of one
or more condiments and sprinkles
it atop his curry and rice.
Incidentally, this is an ideal
sauce to make for curried shrimps,
If you like them. Curried chicken
is good, too. You can use slices as
above or cut the chicken into cubes.
Be sure your rice is dry and fluffy,
for a sticky, gooey rice spoils the
most carefully made curry.
And if you want to go really

your fingers as they do in India,
but I prefer the niceties of knives
and forks!

Mrs. Helen Trundle of Washington
has kept a diary in terms of silk and
linens, lace and brilliant prints. She
made her first entry in her partic-
ular diary when she saved the hand
kerchief she carried on her first date
Next came the handkerchief that
went with her to her high school
graduation in Scotia, Nebr. Since
then Mrs Trundle, a. reservations
agent for Transworld Airlines, has
added to her collection many hand
kerchiefs reminiscent of something
sentimental She also collects scarves
and kerchiefs of the variety that for
years have given the hat serious
competition in the American girls
wardrobe.
The scarves recall trips in the
Northwest, her first rodeo in Bur-
well, Nebr, the Worlds Fair and
sightseeing trips throughout the
country. Prize among her posses
sions is an old-fashioned, handmade
pin-lace handkerchief, believed to be
nearly 100 years old. Her most un-
usual handkerchief was found by
her husband Howard, a native Wash
ingtonian, in a North African curio
shop while he was serving with the
Army in that area during World
War II. The French words, Pour
les," and a picture of an eye and
lips indicate the Use of eAch section
of the unique handkerchief. Also
included in her collection, which
totals 35 kerchiefs, scarves and hand
kerchiefs, is large floral tapestry
which her husband received from

ers to follow that will insure the
perfect product. First, for the very
best results with any mix, follow
the directions ON the package. These
directions have been developed
through many tests both in the lab
oratory and under home conditions.
After you have used product sew
eral times, and are familiar with 1t,
you may want to adjust the direc-
tions to suit your individual taste.
Another little pointer to remember
is this: Stir only until the flour
is moistened; overstirring makes a
less tender cake. Don't worry about
the little Jumps in the batter; they'll
come out in baking. Be sure your
griddle is the correct temperature
and grease it lightly with an un-
salted fat. Pouring the batter for
each pancake on the griddle is bet
