TWO MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TMBTJHE Tbondar, Aognst 13. IMS Feeding the Family By Zola Ylnctmt Food Editor Plentiful Lines Accompaar Frankfurters On Many Picnics As summer hat progressed, we've fixed many a hot casserole for picnickers in backyard and also "abroad" including a work week end at a Girl Scout Camp. The popularity of these Picnic Beans has exceeded all other asked for the recipe that we thought you might like it also. Outdoor roasted hot dogs seem an ideal accompaniment because of easy transportation and the fact that each person finds a greenstick when there are no hot dog holders handy . . . and fixes his own frankfurter to his individual order. Plentiful, economical, plump and meaty, these large dry lima beans grow most abundantly in California as every one knows. We season them with chili sauce, onion and a bit of garlic, top . XT' with bacon, bake; then wrap our baking dish in several thick nesses of newspaper and carry it to the picnic spot Lift the lid any everyone digs In. Six serv ings. 4 cups cooked large dry limas (2 cups uncooked) 1 cup bean cooking liquid 1 minced clove garlic U cup finely chopped onion cup chill sauce 1 tablespoon brown sugar 4 slices bacon Cook beans as usual, figuring 2 cups uncooked to make 4 cups cooked. (We usually cook twice as many and then have good nourishing lima bean soup when we get home.) Mix all In gredients except bacon together in casserole. Cover with bacon strips. Bake In moderate oven, 350 degrees, IVi hours. Favorite Green Apnle Pi Recipe of President Eisenhower We've scored a scoop! The Early Apple Advisory Board which justifiably makes such a tremendous fuss about green, crisp, fresh-picked Gravenstein apples has just this minute given us, practically exclusively, the green apple recipe best liked by "Ike". And it came directly from the person who should know . . . and that would be Mrs. Eisenhower. The Gravenstein is said to be the apple that made green apple pie famous.

Yon just brown and serve you don't even have to thaw the new Swanson Quick frozen Beef Pies. For over 8 months we test ed beef pies in our Swanson kitchens until w perfected this rich home made goodness. They contain not little cubes of beef, but generous slices of the same fine quality beef you'd buy yourself. Make no mistake about it, this is not a beef stew pie. You'll never find starchy, SUS SWANSON stuffy fillers in Swanson Frosen Pies. These are BEEF PIES with plenty of beef. There is also a dark brown savory gravy sea soned just right with plump green peas and pimientoa. The crust bakes to perfection every time so rich, light and flaky you'll probably wonder with envy how we did it. Every time you serve individ ual Swanson Beef Pies you're saving dishwashing, too. You bake and serve these pica in the bright, shiny little alumi num dishes they come in. These handy little dishes can be reused for leftovers, as gelatin molds and refrigerator dishes. Get several Swanson Beef Pies and keep them on hand in your freezer or ice compartment. You'll have hearty, satisfying, individual servings with no left overs, no waste.

Hearty casser ole uses plentiful western large dry lima beans, flavorfully season ed. Casserole is wrapped In several thicknesses of newspaper to keep piping hot. comer to the West, vou may not be too familiar with this Graven stein variety since it is grown almost exclusively in California. but is popular up and down the coast states. It s a round apple, pale green tinged with yellow and has a distinctive, spicy, tangy flavor and fine-grained texture. It's an all-purpose variety which you can enjoy in cakes, dumplings, puddings, turnovers, cobblers and apple crisp. Season is comparatively short so enjoy them now. 6 to 8 green apples Vi to Ji cups sugar V teaspoon grated nutmeg or cinnamon V teaspoon salt M tablespoon butter 2 teaspoons lemon juice (Gravenstein apples, of course.) Line pie plate with pastry, using your usual recipe or a pie mix. Pare, core and cut apples in eights, put row around plate XA inch from edge and work toward center until plate is covered; then pile on remainder. Mix sugar, nutmeg, salt, lemon juice and sprinkle over apples. Dot with butter. Wet edges of under- crust, cover with upper crust and press edges together. Prick several places with fork. Bake in moderate oven, 350 degrees, about an hour. Gravenstein Applesauce If you do home freezing, by all means put in a supply of this wonderful tart - sweet sauce. Pare, quarter and core 8 green Gravenstein apples. Add just enough water, about a cup, to steam fruit and prevent scorch ing. Bring to a boil and cook slowly, covered, 20 to 30 minutes or until apples are tender. Add Vx cup sugar and simmer until sugar is dissolved. Makes 6 servings. If desired, apples may be used without paring. Applesauce Variations For spicy applesauce, substi tute 5 tablespoons brown sugar for granulated sugar; add Vi tea spoon mace, dash of cinnamon and grated lemon rind. For Cin namon Applesauce, cook 2 table spoons cinnamon (red hots) can dies with apples. Clock-Controlled Oven Meals For Automatic Gas Ranges The other day one of our fav orite editors asked us for sug gestions as to how he and his wife could make best use of their new automatic range with clock control; suggested that other readers might be inter ested. A very good idea! So we turned to Dr. Gladys Stevenson, Professor of Home Economics, Whittier College who did a book for the American Gas Associa tion a while back. We learned much of interest along these lines. The clock control on an automatic gas range is a timing device used to start or stop oven heating or both at a predeterm ined time. It can be used ad vantageously by busy homemak- ers and employed women who are away from home all day or a portion of the da. Caution The clock minds the oven and saves worry and hurry. How ever, this method of oven cook ery must be used with some de gree of caution. Clock-control led oven cookery can be used with no fear of food spoilage with "standing time" In oven be fore cooking begins, ranging from a few minutes to four or five hours ... with a little dis cretion. Even longer "standing time" periods can be used if the food is thoroughly refrigerated, frozen or if it is acid in reaction. Fruits, tomatoes and all meats are acid in reaction. Be sure that oven is not hot from previous usage. Omit Certain Foods Certain foods should be omit ted from this type of cookery. 'FIRST ADE FOR THIRSTY YOUNGSTERS GROWN-UPS TOO!

She says: (Q) Tour years ago my last sister moved hero with the rest of ua sisters. This hurt my parents who live about tS miles away. But wo wero all sure that they would move here too.

But now that they are getting along in yean they want to re main in the fa miliar sur roundings of their earlier Dr. Hurlock life. Don't try to force them out of where they feel they belong. It is a burden and a great re sponsibility for all of you to have your parents so far away. But if this Is what they want and if this la what will make them happy, make the sacrifices need ed to give them this happiness. A time may come when - they will realize that they must move but, so long as they can manage where they are without too much help from their children, let them stay.
