Food for Free Woods Yields Spring Greens, Berries, Mushrooms for Adventurer in Eating r ' . By Maxlne Buren Statesman Woman's Editor Just the other day I saw approaching on the street a mere acquaintance who had a look of excitement in his face. As he saw me coming he quickened his pace and called out "Do you like mush rooms?" I do, and said so, but am slightly fussy about the kind. It seems that he and his son had collected a "washtub full" of what he called "beefsteak" mushrooms but what I know as morels, a dark brown fungus that looks like a Drain. He simply naa to ten somebody, and I was a sympathe tic listener. Though Oregon is my very fav orite place, there comes a period in spring and fall when I miss most acutely the foggy, drippy, salty smelling woods of the Puget Sound country where I spent some years. Though city office folk, we practically always went to the water's edge on Saturday afternoons, remaining over Sun day. Our special spot combined salt water and deep, unspoiled woods, which produced luxurious wild growth of greens, mush rooms and berries. Our group was interested in eat ing and our favorite occupation was collecting a living off the country, for we could spend a whole weekend with a minimum of boughten food and a maximum of free. Fern fronds, wild greens, black berries or other fruits, mush rooms anl even nettles attracted us, and there there were always clams and fish from the water, and sometimes the elusive geo duck." We learned why pioneers look ed forward in the spring with such pleasure to the first appear ance of Iambs lettuce, wild dan delions or other greens. They craved vitamins, though they didn't know it Mushrooms are wonderful food. Party Fetes Schlitts Mill t lly Frank Smith, super Mr. and Mrs. Williiun Shlitt were honored at a surprise houe warming party Friday night when a group of their friends arranged a no-host party at their new home on North 18th street.' Twenty -two friends surprised the Schlitts and a buffet supper was served. The evening was spent informally and a gift was presented to the honor guests. Among the Salem folk in Port land Wednesday to attend the Portland Garden club's flower show and tea at the Woman's club building were Mrs. Paul B. Wallace, Mrs. L. H. McMahan. Mrs. Walter Smith. Miss Eliza beth Lord, Miss Edith Schryver. Mrs. William Everett Anderson. Mr. R. E. Cartwright and Mr. and Mrs. Lewis Judson. . Mr. and Mrs. Charles HuKclns, Suzanne and Charles, are spend ing the weekend at Seal Rocks as guests of the Herbert Darbys of Portland. if you get the edible ones. The morels would come springing up in the deep woods by now, easily distinguishable because there were no deadly ones similar in appear ance. Then there were the "cauli flower" mushrooms which : really looked like that vegetable, though there were some which looked more like coral in color and shape. These sometimes grew to an enormous size. Other spring or fall varieties were our favorites, such as shag gymanes. which too were differ ent than poisonous kinds. We never ate any which were similar to poison varieties for they are unsafe. But there were other foods. We found the first tiny shoots from ferns to have a pleasant flavor. They reminded us of asparagus, though not quite so good. These fern fronds were eaten only as they were about to uncurl, never after the opening commenced. Wild greens of various ; kinds are strong in flavor but mighty tasty if you are an adventurer in food. They should be boiled in plenty of water for a few min utes, then put into a skillet with fat and "panned" a few minutes with some chopped onion. One of our favorite desserts was made by boiling up a mix ture of sweetened berries, black berries, wild blackcaps, salmon berries and others, and dropping into the boiling syrup some pieces of bread. The lid was put on and the Juice allowed to soak into the bread. We called it Wildberry Duff. Spiritual Sunflower elub, meet ing at the home of Mrs. Harley Smalley Thursday, sewed for the bazaar. Present were Mesdames Mary Mann, Amy Pierpoinl, Maude Ilaimrr, Mary McCIennan, Shop uay :: m .v.v. :::::-3 $4 Large 30 by 35 Inch Pictures Framed In mahoaany gUt Colorful florals for if -'a mother's room.
