DEPENDS UPON DRESSING Every day is salad day. Whether
you pique the palate with a first course salad or toss in meat,
cheese and vegetables to make it as satisfying as a pot roast, much
depends upon the dressing. Salad success secrets are included
in today's food columns.
Feeding the Family

Way to Get Appetite Appeal
From Those Colorful Salads
Every year about this time
"we talk about tossed salads.
Even though our part of the
country is famed for its salads
and your family may be enjoy
ing them several times a week,
we think you'll find some new
salad notions here. Heat resist
ant salads are nutritionally val
uable too because they're an
easy way to load the family with
important vitamins and minerals.
Here . are points for checking
to be sure you get maximum
appetite appeal in your summer
salads.
Vary the greens. Try head of
leaf lettuce, romaine, escarole,
chicory, endive, water cress,
tender spinach leaves, young
cabbage and any combination of
these.
Always have salad greens,
clean, chilled and crisp. Pat dry
before using; no moisture cling
ing to the leaves.
Consider color, texture and
flavor contrast in planning ingredients.
Keep salads simple, never
cluttered.
Use a light hand in arranging;
a salad should never look "set".
Green salads should be tossed
lightly, .never stirred or mixed
with a heavy hand.
Garnish salads for eye appeal.
A single green peper ring, straw
berry, radish rose or spring of
parsley or- watercress, well
placed, will give beauty accent.
Salad Dressings
Select the dressing best suited
to . the salad ingredients. Tart
dressing with bland makings;
bland dressing with tart foods.
Make dressings well in ad
vance so that seasonings can
blend well. This is true whether
you mix your own seasonings
or use one of the popular salad
dressing mixes available in such
accents as old fashion garlic,
old fashion french, bleu cheese,
California french or exotic herb
mix.
In general, the dressing should
be the last rhjjtedient added to
the salad. Exceptions are mac
aroni, potato and cooked veget
able salads. With these, the
flavor improves with standing.
Another thing; it is a good
idea to provide additional dress
ing for table service.
Tossed Salad Ideas Galore
Some of these you've been
doing for years. Others may, be
new and even exciting. To the
greens variety add any one or
two or more of the following:
Julienne (which means thin
strips) from yesterday's roast,
from cold cuts or canned lunch
eon meats. These often appear
in combination with thin strips
of American or Swiss cheese.
Fish fanciers will enjoy bits
of anchovy, small sardines, tiny
or cut-up shrimp, crabmeat, lob
ster meat.' fork-flaked salmon
or tuna. Fish salads like extra
lemon.
Perhaps you've always
thought of- grapefruit and avo
cado salads as being arranged
on a plate. Try cut up segments
from fresh grapefruit and bite
size avocado with greens.
Sliced or chopped hard-cooked
eggs go with simply every
thing. Vegetable additions might in
clude tomato wedges, thinly
sliced cucumber or cucumber
chunks for that matter, red
andor green pepper rings or
strips, diced pimiehto, raw caul
iflowerettes or . radishes either
whole or sliced.
Other crisp touches include
shredded carrots, sliced green
onions,- red onion bits.
Try strips of roast chicken or
turkey with thoroughly drained
pineapple chunks and sliced
almonds (take it easy; this is still
a tossed "green"' salad, you
know).
Give salads new flavor with
herbs using either fresh or dried
but be. light-handed in their
use: chives, parsley, chervil,
summer savory, basil, tarragon,
marjoram or even thyme.
Tart French With Variations
If you make your own, here's
one of the very best standard
recipes for a zesty dressing.
Measure all ingredients into
bottle or jar; cover tightly and
shake well. Chill several hours;
remove garlic and shake thor
oughly before serving. Makes
113 cups.
Combine one cup salad oil,
ont-fourth cup vinegar, l'i
teaspoons salt, one-fourth tea
spoon paprika, dash of celery
salt, three-quarter teaspoon sug
ar, two tablespoons catsup, one
tablespoon lemon juice, Wz tea
spoons Worcestershire sauces,
two cloves garlic.
Blue Cheese. Add one-third
cup crumbled blue cheese.
Curry French. Add one-half
teaspoon curry powder.
Olive Dressing. Add one-quarter
cup sliced stuffed green or
chopped ripe olives.
Herb Dressing. Add one tea
spoon chopped parsley, 1V tea
spoons chopped chives and one
teaspoon chopped fresh marjor
am.
Jam- Session Suggestions
Now is the time to put up or
shut up about many fine things
in the market for putting into
jams, preserves, jellies. Our
only mission today is to make
suggestions as to what to "put
up". When you use modern time-
and-energy-saving powdered or
liquid pectins, manufacturers
enclose with every package or
bottle complete instructions for
perfect results so there's no pur
pose served in our repeating the
formulas here. One thing to re
member, and that's for sure, is
to follow the directions . and
measurements explicitly as giv
en. These proportions are all de
signed for use of one package
of powdered pectin.
Apricots. Make it snappy.
They're going fast. For nine
medium glasses of jam, you'll
need three pounds apricots, two
lemons.
Berries. For 11 medium glass

Professional Selling
Said To Be Cause of

picked up on the downside the
buyers evaporated. No one seem
ed to have a reason, although
many were dreamed up.
Now that it has found out the
cause of the break the street
is relieved. It feels that the
market has performed fairly
well in the face of that selling.
Excess Wiped Out '
That drop,, it is noted, wiped
out some of the excesses the
market has accumulated recent
ly in the so-called growth stocks.
One of the market men calls
them imagination stocks.
Buying in these issues had
got out of hand. Even the pro
fessionals were involved and
some of the conservative insti
tutional men took a hand in the
buying that sent stocks soaring.
Now what of the future? Will

Few Aderse Factors
- There are few adverse fac
tors which the financial district
doesn't like. The outstanding one
is the profits pinch noted in
many companies in the second
quarter of the year. That , had
been anticipated. Hence, there
was only moderate selling of the
issues showing declines.
And, the street notes, there
was no rush to buy the com
panies which were able to show
gains, many to record highes.
The case of Chrysler is cited
as an example of the market's
neglect of big earners. Chrysler
reported net profit of $10.28 a

a mere S2.15 last year.
