County Homemakers
By Miss Frances ShOffner,
Home Demonstration Agent


It's fun to cook outdoors at a
picnici And what better way is
there to celebrate the 4th of July
than for family and friends to ga
Their around fire to practice their
outdoor culinary art.
Plan menus to include three or
four simple dishes, and think in
terms of the whole meal rather
than just things to eat. Outdoor
meals should have one or two main
dishes, something green or crunchy
in the way of salad, a beverage,
and a dessert
Have f0ods people can cook for
themselves. but be sure you pro-
vide all the ingredients. Take along
salt, pepper, and any other sea-
sonings you need Mustard and cat
sup ad zest to some dishes. Build
the fire long enough ahead so you
have a bed of Goals to cook on.
Sticks for cooking foods over the
fire should be sweet green sticks,
sturdy enough not to bend easily,
and sharpened to a point at one
end.
Keep handy a sharp knife, dish
cloth, paper towels or napkins.
and a pot holder or a pair of gloves.
The other equipment needed will
depend on the foods you .eoo1 and
how much you wish to improvise.
Aluminium foil is excellent for
wrapping foods to be cooked in the
Goals. Baked potatoes, baked apples.
roast corn and meats wrapped in
foil can bee cooked to queens
taste" in a bed of live Goals.
Don't forget to do a good clean
up lob after the picnic. burn trash.
and be sure the fire is completely
out

measure yesterday Dy aQQlng
amendments aimed at extend
ing the tax exemptions only to
PEPCO dams built on the Poto-
mac River near the mouth of the
Monocacy in Montgom cry
County.
PEPCO has a site in that area
for proposed construction of a
500 million power generating
plant, for which a dam would
be required to supply water to
cool the generators.
Senator Northrop said the ex-
emption of the dam from county
and State property taxes was
part of the inducement to get
PEPCO to locate the plant on the
Maryland. rather than the
Virginia side of the river.
His bill, as originally intro
duced. would have exempted
from property taxes any PEPCO
dam on any navigable waterway
in Maryland.
The full Senate approved the
amended version yesterday on a
voice vote. The roll call vote
will come next week.
The Senators, in another ac-
ton, increased their expense ac-
count from $500 to $500 for this
90-day session by passing an
order authorizing a fiat $40 per
day in expenses. The House of
Delegates had passed the same
order earlier.
The expense allowance is in
addition to their $1,000 annual
salaries.
