them. The American Indians
dated summer by the blue
berry season. they say. And
modern homemakers do the
same. From mid-May till
after Labor Day, visions of
blueberries dance in their
heads.
OF course, the wild huckle-
berries Of olden days are now
the big. juicy. cultivated blue
berries we all know so we'll.
Still, the excitement Of seeing
the first box Of fresh blue
berries in the market con-

had.
Plain handfuls Of the sweet,
silver-frosted berries Just
tossed in the mouth. Bowls
Of fresh sweet cream, rich
sour cream or snowy whipped
cream bathing the plump
blueberries. In your fruit SAL

cream, or sherbet, folded into
pancakes or muffins or
biscuits. The visions of
fresh blueberry dishes are un-
limited.

a new one you might like to
try If you like your blue
