(Thirty Days Hath September ;
But Once It Had Thirty-One
; If th Roman Emperor Aufiutiu hadnl been io Tain,' th rhyma
about September would have read thirty-one lnitead of thirty. But
Augustus wanted a month named after him, so he snipped a day off
September, added It to the previous month, and christened it Aug
ust The patched month has lasted to this very day. '
So that leaves us modern cooks with only thirty menu days to
elan In September insteaa ox

Rainy days can be doubly long
formother and children alike.
Let the youngsters help prepare
lunch or supper. Even a three-year-old,
with holiday cookie rat
ten, can produce fascinating ani
mals from bread slices. The
brown j rabbit I and the white
chlckie become French Toast at
supper-time. Slightly stale bread
will cut easily and make an eco
nomical dish.

Am'ona the manv foods Droduced by manufacturers to simplify cooking for the modem housewife are refrigerated
biscuits. These delicate breads come in a cardboard cylinder ready for baking. Cooked as is they are excellent, but
if the cook would like fancy hot breads she may try one of the many variations like the butterscotch rolls pictured here.

Better Toy Storage Good Accident Insurance
Any parent who has tripped
over a child's roller coaster or
barked his shins on a toy truck;
will welcome suggestions from
the Arizona Agricultural Experi
ment Station, Tucson, on storage
for play equipment
The study on toy storage, su
pervised by Dr. B. Eleanor John
son, is part of the regional re
search on farmhouse improve
ment conducted by the Western
State Experiment Stations. Draw
ings and measurements for build
ing toy storage units have been
worked out by the Arizona Sta
tion, i
Recommendations for safe, con
venient, and efficient storage in
clude low, open shelves, easy to
build and inexpensive, located
where children use their toys
most Such shelves make it easy
for small children to see and
reach their playthings and keep
them in good condition, and thus
encourage habits of order and
care of possessions. Also, such
storage space adds to the safety
of grown-ups by preventing a fre
quent accident falling over scat
tered toys.
In the Arizona study, farm
homemakers reported that their
young children usually, played
where their mothers were work
ing; consequently, these mothers
wanted storage places for toys
in kitchen, living room, and bed
room. As a result of the study, the
Station suggests that shelves for
trucks, wagons, and other toys
used in active play be built in
the child's bedroom, where the
noise will be least disturbing to
the rest of the family, and that
toys for quiet play, such as books
and small blocks, be kept on
shelves in the living room. Toys
for creative or imaginative play
may be kept in the kitchen.
Many parents invest consider
able money in toys. Tumbling
them together where they may
get 'broken may lead children
into careless, extravagant ways
with their possessions, comments
Dr. Johnson.

Green Tomatoes
Bofor6 Freeze
Now before frost time, it's
wise to get together good recipes
for using green tomatoes, the U
S. Department of Agriculture
suggests to home gardeners;
Gather green tomatoes before
frost ruins them because they
can be used for pickles, relishes,
pies and even cookies. Green to
mato mincemeat is an item worth
considering because it can be
used in cookies, fruit cake or pie.
Here's the Department of Agrii
culture recipe to make about 4
quarts.
Ingredients: 4 quarts (about
24 to 28 medium-sized) finely
chopped green tomatoes; 2 quarts
(about 8 to 10 medium-sized)
pared, finely chopped tart apples;
1 pound raisins; 4 tablespoons
minced citron, lemon or orange
peel; 1 tablespoon ground cinna
mon; 2 teaspoons salt; V tea
spoon ground allspice; tea
spoon ground cloves; 2 cups
firmly packed brown sugar; 3
cups granulated sugar; cup
vinegar; i to Y cup lemon juice;
2 cups water.
To make: Combine all ingredi
ents and cook mixture slowly un
til tender and slightly thickened.
Stir frequently to prevent stick
ing. Pour into hot clean jars. FUJ
jars to top and seal. Store in a,
cool, dry, dark place. ;
Other recipes for green and
also ripe tomatoes are included
in "Tomatoes On Your Table''
(Leaflet 278). Single copies are
