There are unusually large
crops Of avocados this year.
Florida's late fall harvest. %
million pounds. is double
that Of the Ie5T-6I average.
CALIFORNIA; winter yield is
expected to be the fourth
largest crop on record.
This plump green fruit was
an unknown exotic in most
grocery stores until about
1925. All over Latin America,
both Central and South. the
avocado had been highly
esteemed and eaten by
everyone for centuries, long
before the time of Christ.
Avocados have been called
q variety Of names In the
past. Alligator pear" is one
Of them. It may well have
stemmed from the fact that
Florida, the alligator State.
was the first to produce
avocadoS in the United
States.
To be at its best. an avoca-
do should be soft-ripe. They
never soften on the tree,
regardless Of how mature
they become. Produce coun-
tiers do not attempt to mar
ket pre-softened avocados
because they bruiSe much too
easily at this stage. Buy hard
ripe avocados and let stand
at room temperature for
about three days. Once
nicely ripe. they should be
stored in the refrigerator.
Cut the avocado In half
and remove the seed. One
needn't peel the halves If
they are to be filled with
chicken. crab meat or some
other stuffing. When proper
" soft-ripe. 1t Is possible to
lift the skin right off. Dip
peeled avocado In lemon,
lime or orange Juice as soon
as peeled to keep 1t from
darkening.

There has been speculation
not official yet that Mrs.
Jacqueline Kennedy, the late
Presidents widow, will be
given q high-ranking posi-
ton, on a sub-CAbinet level
in the field Of arts.
OF course, no one as yet
has preached the subject to
the former First Lady for
reasons of dignity and good
taste.
However, should Mrs. Ken
nedy show even the slightest
interest in pursuing the cul-
tural field on a Governmental
level, she virtually can write
her own ticket short Of q
Cabinet status, and even
this has been suggested.
The White House is aware
Of the speculation and i'm
mediately would set wheels
in motion should Mrs. Ken
nedy agree to any proposal
and give the go-ahead.
Presently, she will be given
time to settle herself in the
