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. If you're a new-

You bake and serve these pica

Get several Swanson Beef Pies

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.

HAVTJfO TO RE-ADJUST
When people grow old tfley
like to spend the remaining
yean of their lives In familiar
surroundings. Trans planting
them to a new environment
rarely works. That is why the
woman who wrote the following
letter shouldn't urge her parents
to move. 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. About a year later
say mother had to have a ma
jor operation which was done,
about 20 miles from where wo
live. She convalesced at our
homes. My father was so upset
that wo helped him to look for
a homo near us. But ho found
something wrong with every
house ho looked at and he says
ho hates to leave the homo and
garden ho has had tor so many
years. If my mother didn't
need help wo would forget
about them. But onco a mpnth

These foods are found prac

Roasts, either regular or pot,

In wanting to transplant your
parents at this time. If they had
qeen willing to

be a different
story. But now

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.
