( i THE OREGON STATESMAN, SALEM. OREGON SATURDAY MORNING, JANUARY 8, 1027 i -, f r , Vegetable Casserole Dinners .. .v ..r - -: , - . - - J?(Wo.Uiw think; .because yon haven't . a casserole that casserole meals' lire impossible? The last few ' years have-' developed .more new casserole dishes or meals than any other type ot meal. Home service departments, radio talks, cookingj-and both magazine and tewBgaper wUcIes have given us xnanxjjttew-iwaya . of serving and combining- J.he everyday foods which have an interesting appear ance as well as flavor. . The question confronting every housewife, 'whether summer, fall or-winter, is how can the prepar ation of food.be made easier, in more Instances than. one. Tender meat is not necessary for .casserole cooking here this type of cooking ; is a.r money saver. Tough cuta, are equally as nutri tious as those higher in price, and the flavor 'just as good when prop erly rooked. .Cut the meat intcr pieces and sear on top of the atove. Have the vegetables cut into cubes or strips and parboil or saute for. about five minutes; then place-the meat and vegetables in the casserole and cover .with water" or sou p stock. Season and cook until meat is -tender. Be generous with your season ings in casserole cooking. A dash of kitchen bouquet catsup or onion wljl greatly enhance the flavor. Most ,U. vegetable casserole dishes require a bit of meat to add the desired flavor. Beef, ham bone, bason or pig's feet can- all he used. - At this time of the year our old stand-bys. the "root" vegetables, with squash, onions and cabbage, are in 'their prime. We need n6t confine the cook ing of these fall vegetables to plain boiled or mashed. There are many ways in which we can add variety by learning new ways ot preparing them. However, there are many house wives -who are really not capable of cooking .these common vege tables plainly. Take squash for instance, which often has a watery taste;-if properly prepared, makes a-mot tasty, dish, Steam a hubbard squash, mash smoothly, season with salt, pep per. and plenty of butter; also a couple of tablespoons of cream and a bit of sugar Hardly any sum- mer vegetable can surpass its de- lfcfousnesa. .Theniwe have that homely tur nip. 'Select young, small ones, and, hoil-untll tender. Dice and add a rich cream sauce. You can O l -o i.

Not so many years ago, pine apple was a fruit for kings Poets used it. as a symbol of rare lux ury. Balzac spent months schem ing to get rich by raising pine apples under glass, in a suburb of raris. Today, any family can have it on their table. The enormou growth of the pineapple industry and the novel features of growing and canning this fruit, have made the explora tion of pineapple plantations and canneries one of the most popular sight-seeing trips for tourists who visit llawaiia. Besides giving the tourist a view of the endless, pineapple fields as they can be seen from the roads that wind in and out among them, guides also make a stop at the plantations of Oahu where experts explain the interest ing facts about pineapple culture. Then at the invitation of the guide visitors delight in eating samples of the Monarch of Fruits as it comes directly from the sun-ripened fields. If the novice is allowed to break scarcely detect the old strong fla vor of turnip. Common vegetables plainly cooked, in order to be good, must be well cooked, well seasoned and hot. raffety urges change in auto Traffic laws (Continued from page 1.) mobiles would be required if an other recommendation becomes law. The automobile conference wants it to be illegal to advertise any speed contest or record run contest which would involve the violation of any law, and asks that the legal speed of trucks equipped with pneumatic tires be increased. The conference went on record as favoring the adoption of the Hoover uniform vehicle code, but it wishes to make permissible cer tain deviations in municipal laws governing the use of intersections. Another meeting of the automo tive conference will be held to morrow. ty-one per cent of what we eat is now manufactured in the United States. Spagetti in its conven ient canned form is even exported to Italy as well as many other countries. The best of Italian re cipes is used in the preparation of canned spaghetti and the dish is entirely complete and needs only to be reheated before serving. Tomatoes Are a Real Health Food Health experts recommend to matoes highly for their medicinal properties. Raw or canned toma toes have equal properties in vita mins and minerals and as body and bone builders, and in canned tomatoes the health remedy is cheap the year round. In a Chicago hospital, the child ren receive tomato juice instead of orange juice as a tonic food. A well known New York hospital put tomatoes at the head of the list of reducing foods. The use of tomatoes in their varied canned forms in all kinds of dishes is to be encouraged. Chicken Pie Boneless chicken is excellent in chicken pie and has the distinct merit of needing no preliminary preparation. Cut chicken in to large pieces. To a can of chicken broth add tour tablespoons flour mixed to a paste with cold water. a dash of celery salt and paprika to taste. Into a buttered pie dish nt, small can of tiny peas, three' fourths a cup of cooked onions, three fourths cup cooked carrots,;! cut in small strips. Add chicken and sauce and mix. Cover top of dish with rings of small biscuits, which make the serving easier. Brush over with milk and bake in a. hot oven (450F) 20 jninutes. Make the biscuit dough of two cups dear, five teaspoons -baking powder, iOne teaspoon ' salt, three tablespoons batter two thirds cup ijry'j ; . , . PINEPLE PLANTATIONS TldP FOR T0UMS3& - - " the fruit from the stem, he is sur-j prised t6 ' find how heavy ' the "Smoth Cayenne" variety feels. Its average weight is ten pounds. Then follow very enjoyable mo ments of dashing the big pineap ple against a rock, so' that the shell-can be broken away from the choice fruit inside. Still warm from the sun. and with all of the fully ripened goodness intact tour ists claim; that there is no more delectable fod in the world. The guide susKests that those unitiated to the richness of pine apple sample some of the meat close to the shell, since it is the part from which, incidentally the "crushed" pineapple is canned, that is most choice. A brief glan at the history of the pineapple gives some idea of what modern inventions have done to supply this luxury at so low a price. Indians were the first to offer the fruit to Spanish explorers as something unusually luscious. Since it took a long time to get back home to Spain and pineapple was too perishable to stand the Newspaper Jacket Keeps Ice Cream From Melting The famous "Mr. Dooley" re cently discoursed at large on newspapers and their weight, making the statement that in or der to bring the Sunday morning editions into the house it was ne- cessary to carry the various sec tions separately. So here s another use for this tonnage of Sunday reading matter when the family has thrown it aside. Everyone knows that paper is an excellent irrsulator. When the ice cream for Sunday dinner arrives in its car ton a heavy newspaper jacket will keep the coldness within the car ton and tend to keep the ice cream hard for as long as ah hour. After wrapping of course, the package should be placed in the coldest place in the house. Golden Wedding Anniversary Couples Guests at Church SIL.VERTON, Or.. Jan. 7. (Special.)

Business ceased despite Chinese government assurances that law and order would be kept. Further developments were being awaited anxiously. . . . The correspondent of Reuters News agency was confined in the Asiatic Petroleum company's premises by Chinese pickets, but wj- expected to be liberated soon. The flag was not' flying from the British consulate general yes terd. the premises being watched by Chinese troops, said Japanese ...spaicnes.- Conul General Gofte remained within. Other British residents who still remained in Hankow took refuge in the Hong Kon bnkVan Aiati Petroi"n company's - buildings, about which " 1 .. . .. minting, the political organisation auot ung. the uutonete govern ment, took ' over the administra tion of - the, British . concession.'. 'Eugene Chen, foreign minister of the , nationalist government, said another dispatch, met leading Americans Friday afternoon . to discuss their, position. : II o assured them that there was no reason for panif. asserting that' the- Chinese , government could control the j Bupaiion. Miter,- ine mjm;.i A I long voyage, the Spaniards took the suckers from which pineapples are grown, and it was raised in Morocco under Klaus. From Spain it spread to other countries, and in London a breeder developed the variety known as "Smooth Cayenne." It is this variety for-which Ha waii has become famous since it is the very finest pineapple grown. Captain Kidwell, an Englishman who heard much of the wonders of Hawaii, went over and estab lished a modest canning plant there, and began to raise this choice variety. The fruit is raised by planters who sell it to canners and the farming is done in a modern way with tractors for preparing the soil and plowing after which na tive and South Sea Island workers set out the slips and keep them free from weeds. The plants grow from, two to three feet in height, with sawedge spiky leaves and in eighteen to twenty months after planting the fruit is picked dead ripe, a delicious sun-ripened product. the American community decided to leave Hankow. A meeting with the British with a similar object was a fiasco. Only British Consul General Goffe and one other Britisher attended. Anglo Americans were unani mous in lack of confidence in the professions of the Chinese that order would be restored and ufe and property made safe. There were several American and British warships in the Yang tse opposite Hankow, but sailors and marines were kept aboard. Chinese officials said that their presence might inflame the mobs. Chinese troops continued to patrol the streets, and the populace con tinued hostile to foreigners. Ice Cream Furnishes Necessary Food Elements America's Garguantuan sweet tcoth must be satisfied! We take our ice cream sweet. In fact, the sweeter the better, judging from a recent comparison to de termine which of three percent ages of cane sugar should be used in ice cream. When the votes were totalled, 61 customers voted for 19 per cent sugar; 29 for 16 per cent sugar, and 10 for 13 per cent sugar. The sweetest won. But provided this sugar intake is balanced with other nutriments, no deleterious effects can result, for scientists tell us that no body cell can survive one minute with out the heat energy which sugar supplies so plenuously. Ice cream satisfies the sweet-tooth while it furnishes food elements we can not do without. Dr. Eddy Recommends Use of Ice Cream for Children An answer to the question, "Is ice cream good for children," is given by Dr. Walter H. Eddy in the November Modern Priscilla." "We have entirely satisfactorily evidence," he says, "that eaten slowly and in moderation, prop erly balanced with other nutri ments, ice cream serves a useful place in the dietary. Our ' con sumption of the commercial prod uct will increase. I believe snch a situation is entirely justifiable and that manufacturers are con scientiously working to insure such a product." thelp One help has proved itself "the tit most for a cold.

Department Agriculture Completes Survey of , Meat Industry Need for improvements in re tail meat marketing, including better business methods in oper ating stores, the use of adequate equipment and refrigeration, a re duction in labor turnover, and the education of consumers to a knowledge of grades of meats, is urged by the department of agri culture following a survey of the retail meat industry in 20 cities over the United States. Fifty per cent of nearly 4 500 housewives declared that their dealers handled either the best or a very good quality of meat, when as a matter of fact only approxi mately 9 per cent of the cattle slaughtered were probably of these qualities, the department says. The survey was made under an appropriation especially for this purpose, and was made In three parts, including methods and prac tices of retailing meats, margins, expenses and profits, and consum er habits and preferences in the purchase and consumption of meat. Of the three groups, including producer, distributor and consum er, the consumer is recognized as wielding the strongest influence on production and distribution. More definite knowledge of con sumer preferences a'jid buying habits is considered of value as i:n aid in adjusting production and distribution.

GAS PGRTLAN D ELECT rilPi methods and practices Of retailing peats. - Moat cities have ordinanc es 'governing sanitation, but in many cases the department found that enforcement has not been made fully effective.' Adequate retail equipment and refrigeration, accounts and careful bookkeeping, and the elimination of unscrupu lous dealers, are recommended. There are signs, says the de partment, of an increased interest among consumers in learning about cuts and ' qualities, and it is to the ultimate interest of the meat industry that retail dealers tcke an active part in helping cus tomers to learn what constitutes quality in meat. Selling meats by grades is recommended as an ef fective step toward attaining many desirable ends in the meat indus try. The portion of the retail price of meat absorbed by retail agen cies is reported to average from 22 to 25 per cent. Yet, almost 27 i per cent of lf2 individual retail meat markets of all types of stores and volumes of business were found to be operated at a loss when wages for proprietors were included in total expense. Losses were incurred in 10 of' 13 stores studied" in detail where annual sales were less than $14,000, it being apparent that in such small sized stores the total amounts re turned to the proprietors were not equal to the wages usually paid meat cutters. Sixty-two per cent of the house wives of the American whie group indicated that steaks and chops were bought because of their pal atability, 40 per cent stated this as the reason for buying roasts, and 29.4 pvr cent P?signed this reason for usins boiling meat. Economy was given greatest weight by housewives as a reason for using roasts and boiling meat than for using steaks and chops. Meat was served in the households of the American white group an average of 2.1 times per week at breakfast and lunch, and ",.6 times per week at dinner. Detailed results of the survey save been printed in three depart ment bulletins, copies of w-hich may be obtained upon request to the department of agriculture, Washington, D. C. OFFICERS TO SPEAK PRESIDENT SEEKS IDEAS' OF MEMBERS IX PIjAXXIXO All eleven of the new officers and directors of the Salem Cham ber of Commerce will appear on the program at the weekly cham ber luncheon Monday noon. Scott Page, newly elected president, will introduce the members to the chamber. Each director and officer will make a brief talk outlining what he thinks ought to be some objec tive of the chamber for 1927. In addition cards are being sent out to all members of the chamber asking them to give two or three objectives they think the chamber should take up. These cards will be considered at the next meeting of the board of directors. "The officers and directors have some ideas on what the Chamber of Commerce should do this year" according to Scott Page, presi dent, "but we are anxious to get a cross-jsection of what the mem bers think to influence our de cisions Special 30 :ancl EL.

Neither was an official word ob tainable about the six additional wrshins and the 400 marines or dered south yesterday to augment the American naval squadron un der Rear Admiral Lotimer. The ships are to report to the admiral for such disposition as ne may find necessary. ' If any sudden de velopment in the situation lead to their despatch, it remains clothed in official silence. It was just outside the doorway of the White House that Senator Borah announced his disagreement with the policy of the administra tion. He had been summoned to the executive offices by the presi dent, who yesterday had been in canfflrence with Senator Swanson of Virginia, ranking democrat on the foreign relations committee, and .Senator Robinson of Arkan sas, the democratic leader of the senate. Leaving just as the cabi net was arriving for its regular Friday meeting. Mr. Borah told inquirers that in his lelief "the United States has no business in the world in Nicaragua." Later, in a formal statement issued from his offices at the eapi tol, tho foreign relations chair man said that "if there is any body in Nicaragua constitution ally entitled to be president, it is Sacasa," the former' vice presi dent, who is opposing by armed force the American recognized gov ernment of President Diaz.
