A DESPISED VEED
lew CULTIVATED
Demand for More Greens
and Salad Vegetables
Seen in U. S. Apptizing
and Valuable in Diet
When you were a child, dandelions
were weeds. It Is tme you ate them
as greens, and you still remember
how good they were when they came
on the table sprinkled with crisp,
appetizing bits of bacon or salt pork.
But probably you had weeded those
dandelions out of the yard, or had
gone out with your basket and cut
them from the pasture or along the
roadside.
Does it surprise you. then, to tind
that dandelions are now cultivated
for market on a big scale and chip
ped across the country by truck aud
by carload? what you buy In your
market may come from nearby, but
if you live In a northern city the
chances are the dandelions you may
get have made a long Journey from
market gardens farther south. New
Englandera. although they have been
cultivating dandelions for years, do
not grow al! they use. and the Bos
ton market, ns well as New York and
Philadelphia, buys dandelions from
New Jersey, especially at the first of
the season. Chicago ships them in
from Texas. The dandelion Is. now
a full-fledged article of Interstate
commerce.
Eating More Greens
The fact is, of course, that the
American people are eating greens
and salad vegetables of all kinds as
they never used to do. That is partly
because such perishable foods can
now be shipped across the country
quickly and safely. It Is partly be
cause the city markets supply the
wants of so many foreign-born Amer
icans who are used to and eager for
the green leafy foods. But it Is large
ly because more Americans of all
kinds have acquired a taste for
greens and salads and an apprecia
tion of their food value. Not count
ing spinach or cabbage or lettuce or
celery, there were 2.321 carloads of
different kinds of greens shipped to
market last year, besides uncounted
lots shipped by truck. In the un
counted truck loads, as well as In
the freight cars, were dandelions,
mustard, colIard.s, kale, turnip tops,
beet tops, and several others In
cluding sour grass, which New York
buys from Florida.
The gardeners and seedsmen, of
course, are keeping up with the times.
They are improving the stock of the
familiar garden greens and produc
ing new varieties of kale, mustard,
dandelions, and turnip greens. In
stead of depending for turnip greens
upon the tops of turnips grown or
iginally for their roots, market gar
deners now plant, for greens, the
"seven-top turnip." which goes chief
ly to tops and has only small roots.
Swiss chard, due in the early sum
mer. Is a beet which has been de
veloped for Its tops Instead of Its
roots, and makes excellent greens all
through the summer when other
greens are scarce. Collards. a mem
ber of the cabbage family which
grows a rosette of leaves on a tall
stalk, have long been a standby In
parts of the south, where they can
be grown almost the year round. Now
the northern cities are buying col
lards from the south.
Broccoli Wins Popularity
Then broccoli. This favorite Ital
ian vegetable has been grown com
mercially in this country for only
about eight years but now it Is sell
ing everywhere In our markets.
Poke salad Is still one of the wild
greens, but we can often get It in
the farmers' markets. Don't overlook
the other wild greens, some of which
you may be weeding out of your
garden. There is purslane In partic
ular, with its thick Juicy little leaves.
It Is coarser than Its relative, the gay
little portulaca of your flower gar
den, but it Is very good to eat,
cither cooked or as a raw salad with
. a dressing of vinegar and bacon fat.
or vineear and salad oil. Then there
mm
Is the pigweed, or red-root, which
has a bright reddish-pink root, an
is very much of a nuisance In the
garden unless you use it as greens.
Still another of the common wild
greens Is lambsquartrs, which also
Is oftend called pigweed and some
times goosefoot. The leaves and the
tender tips of the branches are th-
parts of this weed to use.
Don't Cook Ixtng
To cook greens properly any klna
of greens says the Bureau of Home
Economics, use very little water and
do not cook 'them long. Usually no
water Is needed except that which
clings to the leaves aftr washing
Cook them only until they are wilt
ed, stirring occasionally, and do not
put a lid on the kettle. They will
lose vitamin value If cooked too
long, and they will lose their green
color if cooked under a cover. Serve
with a seasoning of lemon Juice or
vinegar, salt and pepper, or with salt
pork or bacon fat.
Of the salad greens, another Ital
ian favorite Is becoming more fam
iliar in our markets. This Is escarole.
or Batavian endive, with Us broad
curling green leaves. Like all the
green leafy vegetables, escarole Is rich
In Iron and In vitamins.
With tender young spring onions,
raw young carrots sliced or cut
lengthwise in slender sticks and laid
on a thick bed of garden lettuce or
escarole, you have a tempting salad
that Is good for "spring fever" an
ailment which is more than likely
due to a shortage of Iron and vita
mins in your winter diet.
Onions Not Alone
Spring onions, of course, are not
the only members of the onion fam
ily on the AprH markets. There are
leeks and garlic, chives and shallots
all more commonly used in Eur
ope than In the United States, and
therefore shipped from the market
gardens to cities that have a consid
erable foreign - born population.
Leeks, however, with thicker stem
and less bulb than onions, are often
found in the "soup bunch," or in the
"vegetable bouquet" that Is sold at
your door. They are especially good
in soups and stews.
Chives, with their grass-like tops
growing from small clustering bulbs,
have a delicate flavor which Is often
preferred to onions. As an appetizer,
spread a potato chip with a soft
mixture of cream or cottage cheese
and chopped chives using the slen
der green tops and you have a very
tempting morsel. Or add a ball of
the cheese and chopped chives to a
spring salad plate.
Shallots, too. are mild in flavor.
They grow In "cloves," or divisions
of the bulb, and are used fresh,
whereas garlic, which also grows in
cloves, is used fresh or dried. Shal
lots are now com'ig into the mar
kets from Louisiana and other dis
tricts In the south.
