AMERICAN DIET5 $13,000,000 Worth Con sumed During 1933 Sea sonAncients Knew De lights, Value of Vegetable Thirteen million dollars worth of onions Is a lot to think of. But that Is the farm value of the onions moved to market from the commercial onion producing areas of this country dur ing the 1933 crop season. It makes onions one of the ten or twelve most valuable vegetable crops we produce. In one way or another, they say. we eat onions in this country at the rate of 10 pounds per person per year. And onions do their bit toward a balanced diet, says the Bureau of Home Eco nomics of the U. 5. Department of Agriculture. They are a fair source of Iron, and raw onions furnish some vitamin C. Onions were one of the foods of the ancients. ' There are paintings. It Is said, that show Egyptian prlesta cov ering their altars with onion tops and roots. Onions are mentioned in the Bible as one of the things the Israelites longed for in the wilderness and complained to Mosea about. Tu the East, continues the historian, i "there is a tradition that when Satan ! stepped out of the Garden of Eden after the fall of man. onions sprang 1 up from the spot where he placed his right foot and garlic' from the snot his left foot touched." 1 Grow 23.0fli).nno Huhel Be that as It may, every farm or tegetable garden now grows onions for home viae. To supply our city markets the commercial shipping areas In the United States usually de vote 60,000 to 90.000 acres to the grow ing of onions. (And this does not In clude the local or market garden acre age producing chiefly for sale in local mnrkets, and furnishing possibly 10 to 15 percent of the marketings.) All told, the commercial onion growers ship three crops early. Intermediate and latewhich amounted to about 33 million bushels this year. At this time of year we are getting the late, or "main crop" onions on the market, which is to say the onions grown chiefly In New York, Michigan.. Indiana, Ohio, California, Idaho, Colorado, and 10 other states, north, east and west. By the end of November, this crop la In storage for distribution through the winter, Most of It conalsts of Yellow Globe onions, but there sre many white onea and red ones as well. The mild flavored Bermudas and the Creoles, grown chiefly tn Texas, California and Louisiana, mature in the spring and come on the market during the sum mer as the "early orop." Imports Reduced We still import some onions, but the 60 000 bushels Imported In 1933 looks small beside the 3 million bushels and more that we used to get from Spain, Egypt, Bermuda, Mexico and Chile. We now grow our own. Spanish onions, large oval yellow mild-flavored onions that come to market mainly from the northwest In the fall and winter months. You find a few Imported Spanish onions on the market In winter as well as In sum mer, and some Egyptian onions also. These are of the Spanish type, but harder end stronger flavored. When you are buying onions you probably look for those that are bright, clean, hard, well-shaped, and mature, with dry skins. You don't want onions which have begun to sprout, or In which the seedstem has developed. Nor do you want onions with any sign- of rot. either on the outer scale or the scales In the cen ter of the bulb snd moisture at the neck ts usually an Indication of decay. These defects are se-lctia, but they are lairiy easy to detect. Mnrketed hv Grades It ts to the housewife's a'vante to know, however, that onions are us ually marketed In wholesale quantl ties by well established grades. The dealer buys northern onions, the Globes, usually in 00-pound bags Bermudas snd Creoles the early onions come In sacks and crates and have their own special grades.) The U. S. Department of Agriculture stan- dards for northern-grown onions are U. S. No. 1", -U. 8. Commercial' "U 8. No. 1 Boilers", and "U. 8. No. 1 ricklers." The grading Is done first over In clined screens or slatted racks, which separate the larger onions from the small ones. Loose tops, chaff, and mrt also, paas through the screens. In add (Won to size, onions are graded for maturity, firmness, and shape, and according to the percent age of "doubles" or "splits." "bot tlenecks" snd "scalltons," snd of "bald." "skinned" or "peeled" onions. wnicn have lost more than half the papery outside skin; for the pres ence of sunscald which affects ship ping and marketing quality; for the cracking of the flesh itself, or any appearance of decay, and for the presence of too many tops. "Doubles" and "splits" are onions which have developed more than one distinct bulb. If they are dlstlntcly misshap en, or show a splitting of the dry outer scales they sre excluded from the top grade. "Bottlenecks" are on ions with abnormally thick necks. "Scalllons" have thick necks and relatively small and poorly developed bulbs. So 1 Illrh Grade "O. a. No, 1," the best grade of onions, are free of these and other defects such as damage caused by freeclng. by disease or Insects, or by handling, packing, or other mechan ical means. The sire for grade 1 Is not less than 1 Inches In diameter If they are yellow onions, 40 petcent more, and If white onions, so per cent or more, by weight, must be , two Inches or larger in diameter. V. 8- No. 1 Boilers" are onions of No. 1 grade which sre 1 to IS In diameter, and "U. S. No. lers" are still smallerleas Inch tn diameter. "U. s. Commercial" grade Includes somewhat less perfect stok than grade 1. The minimum .ze ts 1'4 lnchcea diameter, but there Is no requirement for a percentage 3 Inches In diameter or larger. The onions In this grade are "mature, not soft or spongy, not badly misshapen." and free from defects as listed for grade 1, except that there is no require ment regarding peeled onions. On the same market, they Bhould, of course, sell for less than grade 1, and for many purposes they serve just as well as grade 1. The greatest quantities of onions are used, probably, "rather as a season er than as an edible," as somebody puts It. But on msny a family table a good dinner Includes onions creamed or baked or stuffed, or scalloped, to say nothing of on ions fried to go with steak or liver, or raw sliced onion In a salad. Or onion soup, made with meat stock and served with toast and grated cheese which Is almost a full meal, if you add. say. cold slaw for a salad, or grapefruit or sliced peaches for dessert. Recipes Onion Soup with Toat and Cheese 6 medium sized onions, chopped fine 3 tablespoons fat 1 pint boiling water 1 quart meat broth 4 tablespoons flour 4 tablespoons cold water Salt and pepper to taste Toast Choese, finely grated Cook the chopped onions tn the fat until yellow, add to the hot water, and simmer for 30 minutes, or until tender. Add the meat broth. Blend the flour and cold water, add some of the hot liquid, mix well, and stir Into the soup. Add the salt and pepper, and cook for a few min utes, pour the soup Into bowls or soup plates, place on top of each a slice of toasted bread, sprinkle the cheese over the bread and soup, and serve st once. Fried Oulons and Apples- 8 tablespoons fat 1 quart sliced tart apple 1 pint sliced onions yA teaspoon salt 1 tablespoon sugar ' Melt the fat In a heavy skillet, add the apples and onions, cover, cook slowly until nearly tender, and stir frequently to prevent scorching.
