Fruit Comes. To Rescue : In Lent Vegetable plates, eggs in many delicious forms, fish at its tastiest and bestt Each season has its ape-. cial food favorites and these come with Lent The meatless Lenten meal is looked to with, pleasure. It. offers a chance to try new and interesting food combinations. JSlnce the meat dish furnishes much of the flavor of the meal, the foods thai replace it in Len ten , and similar menus,' must be correctly cooked and seasoned. Cook vegetables in as little water as possible and do not overcook. These practices retain flavor and conserve vitamin value. Season carefully, using plenty of butter for flavor and to compensate for the fat that is usually provided by meat. A bit ol sugar brings out the best in' greenj peas, carrots, sum mer squash, and certain other vegetables. Spinach and other greens cooked with salad oil gain k pleasing texture and flavor. i Lemon Is a! seasoning for vege tables that should often be used and a dish of jjuice-providlng lem on quarters is as important a table ' accompaniment for these foods, as -the salt and pepper shaker a, Fancy garnishes are easily made and are useful to decorate food and make it more eye-appealing. Fish comes to the fore in Lent, although it 14 a food that should appear often on the year 'round menu, due to its food value and the fact that modern marketing ' methods have given us a plentiful . supply and variety of both fresh and canned fish. Here again, lem on is important, for lemon and fish are one Of the oldest of food affinities. Lemon juice is the base for a number of popular sauces used as Accompaniments for vegetables and fish. Lemon butter 2 parts melted butter to 1 part lemon juice is the simplest of sauces. Serve over fabbage, cauliflower, broccoli, Brussels sprouts and artichokes. xumt lauce VAnuomt I cup mayonnaise, VS teaspoon onion j-u ice or 1 1 tablespoon chopped ohives, 2 tablespoons chopped sweet pickles or green relish, lem on Juice to thin to desired con sistency.

Cold Frame Amateur Gardener's Friend; Can Be Made Easily at Home There is quite a bit of 'ood- work connected with gardening. and Winter is a good time to fee at it A major task is building a jcold frame, which is well called the gardener's best friend. In those tantalizing weeks of early spring, when a warn sun one day sets the garden fever burning, and freezing weather that night chills the courage, a cold frame is priceless. Everybody needs one, though he may have a hotbed, or even a greenhouse in addition. To j the great majority of home gardeners, the cold frame will suffice fr all real needs in early sowing. Easy to build, and simple to op- erate, it enables seeds to be sown several weeks before it woud be safe to sow them in the open. Hvith the protection of the glass sash on frosty nights the seeds will germi nate, and the seedlings grow stur dily, until they are large enough to transplant into the open grpund. To make a cold frame, thje ac companying illustrations give full and detailed instructions. The soil which is used in it should be fine, friable top soil, well pulverized. Sow the seed as you would in a flat, or hotbed, water thoroughly and firm the soil over the! seed, pressing smooth with a brick, or piece of board. Watering now becomes of great importance. At no time should the soil be allowed to become hard and dry. Yet excessive watering may cause the seeds to rot, sour the soil, or cause "damping! off." When the plants appear thin them out,, allowing each to grow singly witheut crowding. After the seedlings appear, wa tering is still important, dood drinks, between which the js o i 1 dries somewhat without becom ing crusty and hard, should be the rule. And fresh air is ehthtef next great need. On sunny - days the sash should be lifted early fin the morning, otherwise the temper ature may quickly run to a) dan gerous height. Inspect the; cold frame at least every morning and afternoon, and remember it When ever the weather changes abrupt ly. You will soon learn the pro gram needed to keep the young which plants growing vigorously, work of salad making for the eve ning meal. Salads will probably appeal to her because thej pre sent an opportunity to express the artistic side of her personality.
