boil Of reverence for their
dead. The italians consider
1t a symbol Of love and give
it to their beloved as a token
of fidelity.
There are as many as so
or so varieties of basil. If
one has room in the garden,
we suggest one plant of each
of the three listed below:
DWARF BASIL: This
grows in both a green and
purple leaf. When the plant
is carefully pinched back as
it grows. it becomes a very
compact bush which is an at
tractive addition to any gar
den.
ITALIAN or CURLY BASIL
is the ideal type to grow in

doors a. well as out Of doors.
1t has q much stronger flavor
than any of the other vari-
cites and is used by the Ital-
ians, Spanish and Portuguese
in preparing their delectable
native dishes.
LEMON BASIL is a very
pretty plant with ovate-
oblong leaves. This plant
grows to a height of 10
inches. The leaves are not
as shiny as oGner varieties.
It has a distinct lemon flavor.
The delightful clovelike
flavor of basil imparts a most
unusual and delicate accent
to numerous dishes. Among
its many uses are:
Meats: Pork, beef and veal
roasts should be sprinkled
with basil before roasting.
Poultry: Rub inside Of duck
with fresh or dried basil be-
fore roasting.
Stuffings: Add u teaspoon
of dried or l teaspoon Of
freshly crushed leaves to your
favorite dressing recipe.
Salads: Sprinkle freshly
chopped leaves over mixed
