SIX MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE Friday, April 8. I93S Feeding the Family By ZOLA VINCENT Feed Editor Turkey Defrosting and Roasting Time Reminder Because of the tremendous popularity of turkey at Easter time in this part of the country, we quickly review turkey de frosting and roasting time with and without aluminum foil. We're not suggesting how to roast turkey because we're con fident you know how. We're just reviewing time elements. Defrost frozen turkey in re frigerator in its wrappings. This may take two to four days de pending on size of turkey. A 12 pound bird takes two days. Traditional Roasting Time No matter what the size of your turkey, roast at low tem perature when doing traditional style. Two to- four pounders, oven-ready take 21 2 to three hours at 350 degrees. Four to six pounders take three to Vz hours at 325 degrees. Six to eight pounders take 3Vb to four hours at 325 degrees. Eight to 12 pounders take four to 4V2 hours at 325 degrees. From there on up, set the oven at 300 degrees for 5V2 to six hours to insure in side doneness. Foil Roasting Time Researchers working with aluminum foil find that a high oven temperature of 450 degrees gives best results; .saves up to half the time required to roast large turkeys by the low tem perature method. Eight to 10 pounders, oven-ready take 2 to 2Vi hours at 450 degrees. Ten to 12 pounders take 2:4 to three hours at 450 degrees, fourteen to 16 pounders take three to VA hours at 450 degrees. Eighteen to 20 pounders take 3l"4 to 3V2 hours at 450 degrees and 22 to 24 pounders take Sli to 3?4 hours. Fold foil back around edges of pan about 20 minutes before end of roasting period to give more attractive brown color. Start Early Start 30 to 40 minutes ahead of time in relation to the dinner hour to allow bird to come out of the oven, to firm up for easier carving and for you to make gravy, etc. Savory Ham Slice For the small family who plans a two pound ham slice. Remove rind from ham; cut off fat and cfiip it quite fine. Add two tablespoons prepared mus tary, two tablespoons currant jelly and one teaspoon grated onion. Mix well and spread over ham. Bake in slow oven, 325 de grees, for about IV2 hours. Fruit Punch for Easter Week Visitors It's a party whenever two or more persons get together and share a beverage and some cook ies. Just the home folks can have a delightful impromptu party to please the children any time of day. Or invite the neigh boring children in ... or anti cipate the comings and goings of the teen-agers by stirring up a fruit punch. Popular fruit punch combina tions using equal parts of ginger ale and juices include orange ; juice, loganberry juice, pine apple juice, peach or apricot nec tars or grape juice. A tablespoon rf lemon juice is often added for each tall glass of berry, fruit or nectar combination; not for grape juice, however. When using carbonated or sparkling water, it is necessary to add sweetening. Always add ginger ale or charged water just before serving and pour over ice cubes. For fancy drinks, a small scoop of orange sherbet or va nilla ice cream will produce childrhappy results. Eggs for Breakfast Traditional for Easter break fast, tender, soft-cooked eggs are cooked in just enough water to cover. Start in cold water; bring to simmering point and keep it there for three to five minutes. Never let the water boil. This is the day when we ask the family '"how many" and sometimes are astounded by the number of eggs Dad and the children con sume. Strawberry Mold Easily made, certain to please as salad course or as luncheon or supper specialty with a stack of sandwiches. Dissolve two packages lemon flavored gelatirf in three cups hot water. Chill gelatin until syrupy. Wash and hull three cups fresh strawberries or use two packages frozen strawber ries, thawed and drained. Mash berries and add one cup sugar Combine gelatin and berry mix ture and gradually add one-cup real mayonnaise. Pour into in dividual molds. Chill until set Top with mayonnaise and extra straw berries. Six generous servings. Ham, Turkey and Lamb Vie for Easter Honors Many Easter Sunday dinners will be built around roast tur key, baked ham and leg of lamb, all of which are readily avail able at reasonable cost. If you choose the large, older leg of lamb, why not have it boned for easy carving? Dad would like that. If however, you choose the new season (more expensive) Spring lamb that is just putting in an appearance, better not bone it. More pork, both fresh and smoked, than usual at this season. Beef continues plentiful with freshly ground beef and stewing meat surprisingly low in cost. Fish and Shellfish Frozen halibut is usually plen tiful with good supplies of rock- fishes, salmon, sole, crab, oysters and shrimp among local favor ites. Fillets and fish sticks are readily available; quickly pre pared at moderate cost.

SAN FRANCISCO, CAUF. to matching these important Chevrolet advantages... If you're planning to buy a new car, the one you just can't afford to miss seeing is Chev roletfor 19 straight years America's best selling car. The Motoramic Chevrolet offers you so much more than the other low-priced cars that it's hardly fair to compare them. And even the high-priced cars don't have all the advantages that today's Chevrolet . offers you. The beauty's built in not bolted on! And that makes a big difference not only in how your car looks today, but in how it will look tomorrow, too. Chevrolet's good looks spring from fine, clean design. The beauty is inherent in the basic contours of metal and glass. There's no excessive bolted-on orna mentation to go out of style overnight. The Body's by Fisher! No other low-priced car has a Body by Fisher but -many -of-the high-priced cars do. That fact alone tells you there must be something extra special about the style, quality and con struction of Body by Fisher. And there is! You can see it, feel it and even hear it when you slam the door. Today's most modern engines! That goes for Chevrolet's new V8 and two new sixes as well. For example, all Chevrolet engines bring you a modern 12-volt electrical system-double the voltage of other low-priced cars. This means quicker cold weather start ing, and a greater electrical reserve. Then Chevrolet's new "Turbo-Fire V8" has the shortest piston stroke in the industry, and develops the highest power per pound of any V8 in the low-price field. It takes valve-in-head leadership like Chevrolet's to bring you engines like these! A drive to suit your driving! You can take your choice of three different drives and every one's as modern as this minute. There's silky, peppery Powerglide (even better this year!), new Overdrive (both extra-cost options), and a new Synchro-Mesh transmission that's as smooth as they come. All the power helpers you want! Windows, seat, steering, brakes all are avail able with built-in "muscles" to make driving as effortless as you wish. And you can even have air conditioning if you like. These things are extra-cost options, of course, but they more than repay you with extra pleasure. Fun is "standard equipment"! You find that out the first time you take the wheel of a new Chevrolet. Here, you discover, is a car that takes the curves like it's on rails, that steers like it's reading your mind. It seems simply to ignore bumps and when you stop suddenly, there s no excessive lurching or diving, either. There has never been such a difference in low-priced cars as there is today or so m any good reasons why you should drive a new Chevrolet. Come in and take the key. CHEVROLET SALES LEADERSHIP IS A VICTORY IN VALUE FOR YOU I Isn't it logical that, since Chevro let leads in sales year after year: Chevrolet must put more into a car than its competitors more quality . '. . more craftsmanship . . . more style . . . more things to make your driving easier and safer and more fun." You have to do that to be the leader and stay the leader like Chevrolet! Because Chevrolet builds the most cars and can build them better to sell for less Chevrolet sales leader ship is a victory in value for you! , 19 STRAIGHT YEARS OF SALES LEADERSHIP FOR CHEVROLET Over Ten Million Chevrolet owners Two million more than any other car!
