A fine way to cook rice comes
to me from a famous West Coast
amateur male chef.
Spread cupful of dry raw rice
in a shallow pan and put 1t into
a fairly hot oven and bake, STIR
ring occasionally. The rice should
become golden brown. Then wash
the rice and put it in a casserole

with a lid, add a good slug Of salt
and 2 cups boiling water. Cover
tightly and bake for 20 minutes
in a fairly hot oven.
The rice will swell into fluffy
lightness and has quite a different
flavor from ordinary bland rice.
A little butter and additional salt
and pepper is all that is needed
to complete a luscious dish.

BROILER.

(From Mr.. F. r. X, ArliRgton.)
I have had my infra-red broiler
for about year. During this time
/ have broiled almost anything
you can think of and I would like
to list these various items: Steaks,
real good mans size ones; lamb.
veal and pork chops. fish, such as
fresh salmon, halibut, etc. The
broiler is excellent for grilled
cheese, open, sandwiches. Just
let the bread toast on one side.
then place cheese, store or ched-
dar, sliced, on untoasted side and
place under broiler, delicious. And
1t will in less than / minute heat
any roll or freshen old rolls!
It is easy to keep clean and does
not dry out meats or smoke up
your kitchen. And it is nice to
have at table if you don't feel
like running about. The one I
have is not very fancy kind. 1t
is 10 inches deep, 10 inches wide
and only 6 inches high, front
opening from case to edge of top
cover, inside dimensions not
counting base, ETC.. and is ad-
Unstable to three heights. Never
theless it is large enough for a
2k-pound steak or for 4 lamb
chops. 1t needs no +heating.
This one at any rate was really
as good or better than adver-
Jised.
I hope this will make Miss l..

I am wondering if any OF you
can tell me how to frame some
14x16 silk Japanese prints my
husband brought back from Tokyo

These prints are very delicate,
fragile and lovely. l had planned
to have them done professionally
but the cost for every one is pro-
hibitive and I have three. The
type of framing I have in mind
is very simple, just the plain glass

From Mrs. v. M, LandoDer Hills.)
For Mrs. II. r. W.: Here is the
answer found to the problem of
polishing mirrors which should
work unless your mirrors need to
be resilvered. There is a new
product on the market, plastic
rayon towel. These come in a
package of six towels in rainbow
eolors and are available at all big
department stores. Nothing but
water is needed when washing win
dows or mirrors and no lint is left
at all. Grand for busting too.
Here is something I have found
helpful. In cold weather I wear
rubber gloves while I hang up
clothes outdoors. My hands do
not get so cold because they are
not wet. The rubber gloves are
more flexible than cotton or WOOL
en- gloves.
Can some one tell me how to
make egg shell water for my Afri-
can violets? Do you crumble the
shells? How long should the
shells stand in water before using ?
Also, would like to have a rec
ipe for corned beef and cabbage.

WASHING BEDsPREAD?


(Fron, Mrs. c. w. H.. ArlinotonJ
Will some one come to my res
cue with information on the pos
sible washing in an automatic
machine of a plain green chintz
bedspread. The catch is that
the top is quilted. When I pur-
chased it the clerk said dry lean
ing was recommended when the
above was the case. Has any one
had any experience with washing
one? I am aware that the clean
ers in Silver Spring with the name
beginning with "I'' probably could
dry clean it successfully. Other
than that I would rather do it
myself.
If some one can give me de-
tails on a home method I would
appreciate it. Washing by hand

of the UNC summer session which
closed this week.
On Monday of this week at least
1000 pounds of croakers and trout
were brought into the packing
house at Stumpy Point, selling at
prices of 1ze to lac per pound.
The neighborhood has witnessed
one of the busiest seasons in the
history of summer fishing. Satur-
day some 500 boxes were sold at
Stumpy Point market, and on Mon
day preceding approximately $50
boxes were shipped out.
Dare county's Jail, besides having
been listed among number of
North Carolina jails as not safe
for the care of federal prisoners,
within the past few months has
become inadequate for the rush of
business that has come to it. A
great need for the Jail is fence
to enclose the lot and keep away
the loafers who hang about the
windows and talk to the prisoners.
AS it is, any person can be given
a weapon or a tool to make his
escape. This is one reason the jail
is on the federal black list.

THEY Do AND THEY DON'T
(Carteret County News-Times)

Hyde county's delegation to the
commercial fisheries m m t e e
last week recommended that an
additional 100000 income in North
Cardinals fishing industry be lop-
ped off.
That, virtually, is what night
shrimping has meant to the fishing
industry this year, and now Hyde
county shrimpers, at least some of
them, want night shrim pin G
stopped. They contend that "big
boats" work at night and take all
the shrimp, then there are none
left in the daytime for '''little
boats"
1t has been proved that the
shrimp taken at night are not
available in the day-they have
burrowed in the bottom. Naturally
"small boats" or any other size
boat can't get them then. Further
more, there is no reason why small
boats can't shrimp at night just as
we'll as large ones.
We used to think there was no
one as contrary as cantankerous

THE PEOPLE WILL PAY
FOR BOTH MISTAKES
(The Northampton Times,
Cape Charles, Va.)

What is described as Republi-
can-Southern Democrat coalition,
in rebellion against the Presidents
demand for stronger bill to sta
bilize the nations economy during
the defense mobilization, contin-
ues to refuse to give the Govern
ment the powers requested.
The House and the Senate have
voted down proposals designed to
prevent imitation, despite the fact
that most of the proposals involv-
ed were similar to those employed
during World War II, when the
nation did a good job in connec-
ton with holding down prices.
In view of what has happened
in Congress, the President is prob
ably justified in declaring that the
responsibility now rests on Con-
gress to give the nation stronger
defense production bill but Mr..
Truman cannot escape criticism for
his own failure to use every avail
able weapon to control prices last
summer when the Korean fighting
first began.
Twelve months ago it was OBJ
vious that there would be unjusti-
fed increases in the prices of COM
modities and products unless the
Government interviewed immediat-
ely. About all that the admins
tration did at that time was to
issue appeals for voluntary coop
Grafton in holding down the prices.
These, as expected by the experts,
were futile.
While the President is to be
blamed for his hesitancy in EJECT
ing strick controls, the grave dan
ger of imitation, which now faces
the nation, cannot be averted by
declaring that the President should
have acted earlier. Apparently,
the Chief Executive now recogniz-
es the need for stronger controls
and has repeatedly appealer to
Congress for the necessary legis-
lation.
Congressman who vote against
such measures at this time cannot
excuse themselves by blaming the
President for his failure to i'm
pose controls last summer. They
are facing an aggravated situation
in which proper action by Con-
gress may retrieve, to some ex-
tent, the ground lost by the Pres
ident's inaction last year.

woman, but somehow our opinion
is being changed. North Carolina
shrimpers wanted night shrimping
and their want was backed up by
scientific investigation. Stopping
night shrimping in Hyde county
would affect not only Hyde coun-
tians but all North Carolina boats
that shrimp in those waters.
The anti-night- shrimping Hyde
countians threaten to take steps to
outlaw night operations by statute,
if the commercial fisheries COM
mittee does not grant their re-
quest.
This not only causes US concern
because additional income night
shrimping brings will be lost, but
it makes us look with sympathy
upon the newly-appointed CONNER
cial fisheries committee headed by
Mrs. Roland McClamroch. That
committee has a wearisome, thank
less job-no matter what it does
it never suits all the fishermen.

SHEEPSHEAD ARE
HARD TO HOOK,
WORTH EFFORT

Anyone who ever has tried to
break open an oyster or clam can
appreciate the tremendous crush
ing power in the jaws of the
sheepshead as it munches away on
these hardshelled denizens, crack
ing them like peanuts.
This ability proved more than an
item of passing interest to one
hotel owner who featured a new,
salt water swimming pool only to
find its sides rapidly filling with
barnacles. He found it necessary to
employ someone to constantly re-
move these until some fisherman
suggested he place few Sleeps
head in the pool.
This was done and the barnacles
were gobbled up the second they
appeared. The owner saved MAIN
terance costs, the sheepshead led
an easy, safe life and everybody
was happy, with the possible ex-
ception of the barnacles.
The sheepshead is called the
Convict and Sarge Raiado.
Characteristics
In addition to its remarkable
n,cCthful of seemingly iniestrucr-
able teeth, the sheepshead is easily
distinguished by IL or Is black
and white vertical stripes on its
sizes. General color is silvery
green.
1t ranges from Cape Cod, south
along the Atlantic coast to Florida
and iE the Gulf of Mexico. 1t is
found around breakwaters, ietcies,
bridges, piers, pilings and wharves.
1t prefers rocky bottoms in bays,
in!ets, creeks and rivers.
The largest size, unofticially, is
about 80 pounds. The average is /
to pounds. Its flavor is excellent.
1t feeds on barnacles, fiddler
crabs, CLAIMS, young oysters,
shrimp, shellfish and other crusta-
ceans.
1t responds to no lures since all
sheepshead are taken on live bait,
and the only useful fishing method
for them is still-fishing.
Tackle
Since oldtimers warn you to "Set
the hook hard just before it
bites," stiff rod made of split
tempered bamboo is best. A heavy
hook is most suitable.
The sheepshead is one of our
most popular salt water parrish,
and should not be confused with
the fresh water drum, which is
sometimes called sheepshead. The
sheepshead is tricky to catch but
delightful to devour.

FISH FOR POOR
AS WELL AS RICH
TWICE A WEEK

Housewives are facing a press
ing protein problem. An easy and
pleasant solution lies in heavy
spring fish supplies. With a little
more imagination in preparation
and use of the many varieties now
available, fish twice a week will
gain quick family acceptance and
go a long way toward easing the
protein bloc.
Seafood counters offer cleaned
and dressed whole fish such as
porgies, whiting, founder, bluefish,
shad, fiuke, grey sole, pike and
whitefsh. Steaks of cod, striped
bass, salmon, halibut, swordfish,
tilefish and pollock are ready fol-

include large king salmon from
the cold north pacific, shad and

halibut from both coasts.

that. the aim of fish cooker is to
coagulate the protein and develop
the flavor. Tenderness is already
