JA M ES C A G N EY CLASSIFIED Ot course, the family won’t eat vegetables that arc cooked beyond recognition with all their delicate colors washed out. Do you blame them? Vegetables don’t have to look that way. Spinach can be a rich green with enough of its character left in to hold up a few of the leaves. Peas can be as g re e n as when th e y a re f ir s t picked, cabbage almost as crisp as when it was first picked and green beans fork-tender and well seasoned. Two rules to remember in vege­ table preparation are these: First, prepare your vegetable just before ready to cook. Don't let it stand in water to have the flavor and nutriments leeched out. Second, cook only until tender and then serve at once. Another complaint that we fre­ quently hear about vegetables is that they lack flavor. That's easily remedied. Coax out the natural fla­ vor with cooking In salted water, then taste before serving and per­ haps add a bit more salt, a dust­ ing of pepper and melted butter or bacon dripping if you like a smoky flavor in your vegetable. Sometimes a cream sauce will add interest to the vegetable, or per­ haps a cheese sauce will bring out its best points. Today's recipes will give you the cues to making these vegetables a star attraction on your menus. Corn a. La King with Bacon.

Keep changing salt as it absorbs ink until ink spot disappears. To prevent wall from cracking when putting up a nail for pic­ tures, heat the nail by holding with pliers over a flame, then drive into the plaster imm e­ diately. Wax window sills to prevent them from getting dirty easily. To clean white painted sur­ faces, dip a cloth in dry oatmeal and rub vigorously. To clean leather furniture, use warm water and soapsuds. To remove dog hairs from up­ holstery, rub with a piece of dampened chamois. To clean bathroom walls, let hot water run in tub long enough to steam walls, then rub the walls with a cloth until they are clean.
