Feeding the Family By ZOLA VINCENT Food Editor Lift Your Lenlen Meals Wilh Natural Cheddar Cheese From green pasture lands and cheese factories of the Pacific slope come an abundance of versatile cheddar (good old yel low American; cheese to aid the meal planner and to please the family. No west coaster will argue with when we say that no cheddar cheese in all the world surpasses, and few com pare, with the product of our own dairy lands. The quality and goodness of the fine trade marked varieties seems never to vary; an amazing tribute to the skill of our cheese makers. With infinite patience snd highly pro fessional know-how, they convert close to five quarts of top-grade whole milk into each and every pound of full-flavored cheddar. West coasters eat an average of 7Vi pounds of cheese per per son per year; mostly properly aged cheddar. It has excellent 'nutritive values, high digestibil ity; fits into any meal or time of day; can be "cooked" in a thousand different ways or en joyed "as is." Very reasonable in price! V.'nat are we waiting for? Put in a supply and dress up many meals. C -f Sauce Variations Fresh or leftover vegetables, any of the macaroni products and potatoes become a fine main dish when grated cheese is added to a medium white sauce. Add cheese to your taste and stir until cheese melts. Fine added flavor and color are achieved by adding a bite of chopped pi miento, chopped green pepper, chopped stuffed olives, green on ion tops, a handful of parsley, some celery seed, caraway seed or finely chopped sweet purple onion. Store perishable cheese as you do milk in refrigerator in a tightly covered container. Most agree however that cheese tastes best when served at room tem perature and of course it com bines more readily with other ingredients for cooking when used at room temperature. Ma jor rule for cooking cheese mix tures is to always cook at low temperatures; do not overcook. Get cheese into small pieces be fore combining with other in gredients for quick cooking and even distribution of its flavorful goodness.

Cheese-Tomato-Rice Scallop Packs Good Nutrition Wallop Plentiful rice, plentiful ched dar cheese and ditto canned tomatoes combine in this satis fying, nutrition-packed dish that originated "in the green grazing valle3rs on the seaward side of the Coast rahgs" to quote our old friend Dean Collins in referring to Tillamook County valleys of Oregon. 3 cups cooked rice 2 cups (Vi pound) shredded natural cheddar cheese M teaspoon salt 1 tablespoon grated onion 1 No. 214 can solid pack toma toes, drained 114 cups undiluted evaporated milk Mix together lightly the rice, salt, onion and 1 cup of the shredded cheese.

Start SPRING off RIGHTI NOW AVAILABLE ON n rz rvn J V Easy Pouring Containers You're SURE of the BEST If It's JORGENSEN'S Gallup, N.M. (U.R) Four and a half years ago a Gallup radio station owner decided it would be a nice gesture to put on a daily program for the 75,000 res ident of the Navajo Indian Res ervation. It was a gamble. The Navajos are known for their reluctance to adopt the white man's ways. They cling to old tribal customs, and radio listening was not one of them. Today the Navajo program of station KGAK is rolling along as a commercial success about 25 different sponsors and station owner Merle Tucker recently won an Alfred I. DuPont award for his unique effort in the field of radio entertainment. The program claims an audi ence of 45,000 Indians, many of whom huddle around battery-operated radios in their crude mud hogans to hear news in their na tive tongue. Some Barriers Tucker and Dana Begay, a Navajo interpreter who helped start the program and still con ducts it, said the biggest stum bling block is getting modern ideas across with the limited and old fashioned Navajo vocabu lary. Commercials have been servings for hungry people. Shellfish Variation. Turn this into a' shrimp dish by putting shrimp, whole or cut, amongst the tomatoes ... or use cooked crabmeat. Cheese and Baked Bean Sandwich Makes Main Dish Another specialty of the Tilla mook cheese country is this sandwich that borrows from the popular beans and brown bread tradition of New England. Arrange thick slices of but tered brown bread on a shallow baking pan. Top each slice with a generous spoonful of baked beans in tomato sauce and a slice of nippy whole milk natural cheddar cheese. Bake in mod erate, 400 degree, oven for about 10 minutes or until sandwich is heated through and the cheese starts to melt. Place under broil er to puff and brown the cheese. Serve at once. Variations. For further inter est or a change, top beans with thin slice of luncheon meat or frankfurters, sliced or halved . . or with thin slices of sweet Span ish onion or a tomato slice be fore adding the cheese. Not a Minute Too Early To Plan Easier Eggs Decorating Easter eggs is a creative adventure for the chil dren; results in good eating for the entire family. Egg prices are so modest this year that the children can be indulged pretty much to their hearts content when.it comes to fixing Easter eggs. For the decorating of hard cooked eggs, we suggest that you provide the children with the eggs and one of those wonderful decorting kits that experts have developed and that is available at all grocery stores. Read the directions to the children and then leave them to their own devices. Give them a "trial run" now; save the big job for next week-end. The results would probably startle any self-respecting rab bit out of a month's growth but the children will love their works of art. And that's the im portant thing! For 75 years, the largest of the egg dyeing and decorating companies has been enlarging its ideas until today it offers coloring tablets, transfers, metallic gummed seals, magic writer crayon, an "Easter basket box, egg drying tray, wire egg dipper, fascinating multicolor process . . . and even Disney Dress-Ups to delight youngsters. Cost is a trifle. Fun is unlimited! Stores important. When the last egg is decorated and ad mired, put them in the refrig erator where, of course, the Easter rabbit will find them and hide them about the house or garden during the night. The morning's egg hunt is just as exciting as though the children had never seen the eggs before. Remember? How lo Make Cascarones Cascarones (pronounced kaska rones) are those wonderful emp ty eggshells that are so easy, to dc and so much fun especially when filled with confetti and thrown casually at some unsus pecting person. First of course, they're used as Easter table dec oration. The flat end of the un cooked egg is gently chipped to make a hole about an eighth of an inch across. The more pointed end is punctured with an ice pick. Blowing through the smaller hole forces the egg out of the larger hole; a fascinating experience for children. After drying a short time, the smaller hole is sealed with a bit of colored paper or scotch tape. Confetti, optional, is poured in the large hole which then is sealed. Best to decorate these fragile shells with decals or paste-ons. Use egg contents for scrambles, omelets, custards, egg drinks, angelfood or yellow cakes. worked out with ingenious use of sound effects. One sponsor, for example, sells condensed milk in cans. The commercial opens with the 'moo' of a milk cow and the announcer follows with a careful descrip tion of the can which the milk come in finally he gets around to making a sales pitch. A different recorded "moo" is used to introduce a commercial for "Bull of the Woods" brand chewing tobacco. For his 90-minute afternoon show, Begay serves up mostly recorded music and news. The music leans heavily toward west ern songs requested by listeners, although from time to time Be gay will play recordings of au thentic Indian music. Begay translates news stories from a United Press teletype into the Navajo dialect. This is often a process of simplification. Many English words have no Navajo counterpart. If there is news of a new med ical discovery, for instance, Be gay will not go beyond the term "medicine" to tell what it is, but he can give a generous descrip tion of what it does. "I've found that I have to give a complete newscast, including science and world affairs, be cause the Navajos are just as in terested in those things as any one else," Begay said. Another maor source of pro gram materials is the 80 or more letters Begay gets every day from tribesmen, many including announcements of tribal meet ings and social events to be read on the air. KGAK also has a junior edi tion of the Navajo program in the Zuni Indian language. This is conducted by a Zuni, Fred Bowannie, and consists solely of news and Zuni music. Sentiment Growing For Reds' Release Washington (U.R) A grow ing number of American of ficials feels the United States should release a group of Chi nese scholars who want to re turn to Red China, informed sources said today. The sources also disclosed that the number of Chinese seek ing to return to their home land is increasing. The State Depart ment last year said the total was 35. Officials declined to say exactly how many now wish to return to their homeland but in dicated the total is about 40. Any decision to let the group go back to Red China would im prove America's moral position and strengthen the hand of United Nations Secretary-General Dag Hammarskjold who is trying to free 15 American fliers jailed in Communist China. With an eye to' winning freedom of the airmen, the United States recently helped arrange return to Red China of several Chinese fishermen who had been rescued from a reef off the Philippine Islands. International Food Agency Proposed Washington U.R) The Sen ate has been urged to go on rec ord in favor of an international agency to relieve farm surplus problems and, at the same time combat Communism by fighting hunger and starvation. Two proposals dealing with the same t general subject mat ter were prepared for introduc tion in the Senate. Sens. James E. Murray (D-Mont.) and W. Kerr Scott (D-N.C.) were the principal sponsors. Scott's bill would authoize ne gotiations to establish a "world food bank" from which nations could borrow food and fiber and repay the loans in kind, in other raw materials or in cash. That bill had Murray as a co sponsor. Murray's own bill would au thorize the creation of an inter national food and materials re seve. That would serve the same general purpose and Scott, along with a number of other senators, was listed as a co-sponsor. BEWARE OF IMITATIONS LOOK FOR THi HAPPY LlTTLtDOG fmppf TOPS IN QUALITY!
