APPLES FRUIT Those plentiful, flavorful. nutritious and delicious red and golden apples are among the most versatile of fruits. Superb for eating out-of-hand, the red are also tops for salads, the golden for making dumplings and other luscious desserts. Recipes are included in today's (food columns. Feeding the Family By ZOLA VINCENT Food Editor Dishes from Flavorful Fresh Apples Add Interest to Meals The glowing red and the gold en glow of the Northwests De licious apples fills our fruit bins There are also plenty of Califor nia's Newtowns. Apples lead all fruits in popularity; perhaps be cause of their extraordinary ver satility. For eating out of hand, the Delicious is thought by many to be unsurpassed and certainly it's an ideal salad maker. The Golden Delicious is crisp, tender, fragrant for fresh eating, for sal ads and for general cooking. The Yellow Newtowns make good eating "as is" and are also good cookers. The Crimson Winesap is an extra good eating apple and will be around increasingly for many months. Apple Storing. Apples retain their crispness and flavor best when stored in the refrigerator at cool, but not freezing temper atures. Apple Nutrition. Apples are rated a good source of vitamin C which is so vital in keeping teeth and bones healthy and to help build the body's resistance to disease. Apples are also a good source of vitamin A and of calcium, the bone-builder.. Rich In pectin, apples help the diges tive system. Low in calories, they are good in reducing diets.

Ancle Spice Tips You'll be serving apples in so msnv ways: apple pie, apple bet ter annlp turnovers and. of course, baked apples. - Even imrjle baked apple can be more sprinkling of mace. For especially good baked ap ples, make your own spice blend of sugar and spice and place in a shaker. Really convenient for serving and maybe passing with different kinds of puddings and pies as well as baked apples. For a tasty blend use one tablespoon of cinnamon with a teaspoon each of mace, cloves and nutmeg and the amount of sugar that suits your taste. Another excel lent combination is a mixture of two teaspoons mace with two teaspoons' nutmeg. A small dash of powdered mace will add inter est to your next apple salad. JJamsh Meat Balls , Ground beef is a real bargain right now, but even if it weren't, we think you would still buy it in order to have this flavor some meat dish. Serve with mashed potatoes, rice, spaghetti, or noodles. Six generous serv ings. . - . 2 inch thick slices bread Vz pounds ground beef 1 onion, finely minced 4 tablespoons drippings or butter V2 cup hot water Vi teaspoon salt Vs teaspoon pepper Vi teaspoon powdered mace or nutmeg 1 bay leaf Soak bread in cold water. Press dry. Crumble; add remain ing ingredients and mix well. Shape into balls; roll in flour. Brown in melted fat in heavy frying pan or Dutch oven. Add hot water with bay leaf. Cover and cook slowly Vi hour. Here's a thrifty trick that lets you get not only a fine party din ner from the tenderest part of a handsome beef rib roast, but also another fresh-cooked meal of braised short ribs. Have your meat-man saw through the rib end of the roast, then cut be tween the ribs to make individ ual servings of short ribs. Braise short ribs slowly with vegetables to stretch their good meat flavor further. Now for your handsome roast. To- make it juicier and to get more servings from it, too, keep oven heat at 325 degrees. This cuts shrinkage to a minimum. One hour before done, put peel ed potatoes in the pan to brown in the drippings. Or perhaps whip up a Yorkshire pudding.

Here we combine prunes and dried apricots for an outstanding up- side-down cake. 16 cooked prunes (pitted) 16 cooked sweetened dried apri cots x4 cup melted butter or mar garine Vi cup brown sugar (packed) V4 cup water 13 cup shortening 23 cup granulated sugar 1 egg IVi cups sifted cake flour Vz teaspoon salt Vi cup milk teaspoon vanilla extract SHADY COVE -TRAIL Pink, Blue Shower Held By EVALYN P.
