If you've noticed an Improvement
in the grade and quality Of the
fresh produce in your local retail
stores Of late you can thank the
vigilance Of the District Wholesale
Fruit and Produce Association. The
association, which has been In op-
Grafton for the past Few months, has
as their aim the improvement Of
all fresh produce to reach the
Washington markets. Incoming in
spection service Is also new. In
spectors check cars Of merchandise
coming into town to see that the
grade and quality is suitable for
the Washington trade. II the
quality does not meet with the ap-
proval OF the inspector, the car Is
refused and Is diverted to another
market.
Apples, grapefruit, oranges, string
beans, broccoli, and cabbage are
the big news in fresh produce this
week. Everywhere I looked this
morning I saw boxes and boxes OF
apples; they're cheaper now than
they have been at any time since
before the war. Use them literally
in all sorts of dishes, and, by all
means, keep a bowlful handy for
after school munching. You can't
go wrong buying string beans either,
they are especially fine quality and
actually cheap. Cabbage is still
holding its own as another good
vegetable buy, and the same may
be said for broccoli.
This Is good week, too, to get
your salad bowl out and dust of
some Of your dressing recipes. Ger
tainly, there's no better or easier
way of getting your spring tonic
than in a bowl of crisp fresh greens.
Try tossing some Of the more tender
leaves of the cooking greens in
your salad mixture; spinach, mus
tard leaves or a few spears Of
dandelion greens add a nice spicy
flavor.
Celery is good now, and put up
in the cellophane wrapped package
you'll find it stays fresh and crisp
for several days. I was particularly
interested in the way they handle
the celery for their trade. First, all
the outer stalks and rough leaves
are trimmed off, then it goes on q
roller and is sprayed and washed
until 1t is white and shining. From
here it goes into waxed cartons and
is automatically wrapped and sealed

Report to the Housewife

In the ceHophAne package to keep Il
fresh and crisp.
Other vegetables that are reason.
ably priced include carrots. beets
parsnips, oyster plant, radishes
caulihower, potatoes, turnips and
green peppers. Tomatoes are ex-
cellent quality and, while you can t
put them in the class of cheap yece-
tables. still they're not unreasonable.
Vegetables that are definitely in the
luxury class as far as price Is con-
cerned are eggplant, yellow squash
Cor banana squash as the trade
says), zucchini, and the pale green
cymlings.
The strawberries look very nice
but you're apt to find the prices q
bit higher by the end Of the week.
Hood River pears are still plentiful
and a good fruit buy. The big ruby

Have you been running low on
ideas for lenten dishes? There's an
entirely new type of canned salmon
on the market now you might like
to try. In this new pack the back
bone and skin are removed before
canning which means every bit of
this canned salmon Is edible. You
can serve 1t just as 1t come from the
can "au naturel," or combine 1t with
or spaghetti for low-priced
dishes.
HERE AND THERE: An entirely
new washing powder for automatic
washers has been developed by q
40-year -old manufacturer of water
softening cleansers. Tested by more
than 10000 housewives, this new
powder Is soapless, eliminating the
old bugaboo of lover -sudsing," which
often happens when housewives give
their washers an overdose of soap
and softener. As q result there is
never any soap curd formation in

Did you know that back in
ancient days cinnamon was sup
posed to have mystic properties? It
was believed capable of inspiring
love, so the mystics often used it in
love potions. The story was that
cinnamon grew In the center of a
lake, guarded by fero-
cious birds who attacked everyone
who tried to get the spice. So at
great personal peril, the traders
would wade into the lake, snatch a
few branches of the precious tree
and hurry to safety. Now, of course,
you can buy 1t at the corner grocery
store for few cents Most fruits

away from them, exposing part Of
the carrot itself, the heart of the
carrot turns green. What happens
Is that the sun action forms chloro-
phyll. Chlorophyil, as you know, is
the element that turns grass green,
and carrots, too, when It gets .

summer keep the earth firmly over
the carrots until they are ready for

Women Voters Call on U. s
To Seek Palestine Peace
BY the A.soeiofed Press

By the Associufed Press
GRAND RAPIDS, Mich, May /.
The National League OF Women
Voters, in last-minute scheduled
action yesterday urged United
States leadership in ending the
conflict in Palestine.
Over minority objections, which
mainly felt the action too hasty,
the convention went on record ask
ing the United States Government
Ito exercise immediate strong lead
ership in utilizing every possible
means under the United Nations
Charter to resolve the Palestine
conflict"
1t was the first time in five con-
vention days the question had for
mally been raised.
The action followed adoption,
after four days Of debate, of the
leagues stand on strengthening the
United Nations.
