It often is necessary to taste the dish before dishing it up. The amount of salt required var ies with the food, the quantity cooked and personal prefer ences. Seasoning Guide These general rules, most likely to please the majority. Meat Allow 1 teaspoon of salt for each pound of meat without a bone. If meat con tains a large proportion of bone, use less salt. If the meat is high in natural salt such as ham, bacon, corned beef and dried beef, omit the salt. . Fish For most fish, allow one-half teaspoon of salt for each pound. With naturally salty fish, such as finnan had die and cod, eliminate the salt. For oysters or lobsters, sometimes the single flavor ing of lemon juice is pre ferred to the addition of salt. Vegetables Use one - half teaspoon of salt for each two cups of fresh vegetables or ten-ounce package of frozen vegetables. When a recipe calls for "cook in boiling salted water," as for dried beans, use one teaspoon of salt for each quart of water. Rice Allow one teaspoon of salt for each cup of rice cooked in two cups of water. Macaroni Products Allow one tablespoon of salt for each three quarts of water when cooking eight ounces of macaroni, spaghetti or noodles.

Catalogs Reminders of Fittest Among Vegetables This is the season when vegetables look biggest and brightest ... in the seed cata logs; when faith is born anew in the true gardener's heart that the battle of the bugs and the weeds is well worth the effort. Whether you plant 'em now and dig 'em later or are con tent to let the professionals do your vegetable garden ing, the current seed catalogs have been mowing them down. They reveal that 290 old, favorite varieties of veg etables and melons have just been voted out of their place in the sun. Thirty-seven varieties of beans went by the boards. Twenty-two varieties of peas, 10 of corn, 20 of cucumbers, 12 onions, 3 cabbages and 23 varieties of cantaloupes bit the dust. Twenty-six varieties of tomatoes, nine of turnips and 31 of watermelons will be grown no more from com mercially packaged seeds, along with many other one time favorites. Why oblivion for these once-loved edibles? They've been replaced by superior va rieties that taste better, look better, ship better, store bet ter, cook better. We called Western Growers association and they told us that truly only the fittest vegetable and melon varieties survive; prove their superiority against all odds. Our part of the country grows commercially 26 major kinds of vegetables, 8 major kinds of melons with very few varieties predominating nowadays. Today's Vegetable Buys Potatoes are the number one value followed closely by cab bage, cauliflower, celery, let tuce and onions. This is not exactly the season for toma toes, but they are in good supply with a wide range in quality and price.

Terms Now We Fish by Radar; Indiscriminate Killing? Since the very beginning of time men have tried to find a fishing lure that would com pel fish to bite, whether they were hungry or not. They have worked and experiment ed with every conceivable gadget that could be dreamed up. Even chemical possibilities have been extensively ex plored. Concoctions of every com bination have been mixed, soaked or doctored. There have been times when some flavor or scent looked like a sure-fire thing, but later trials proved them unworkable. The fisherman himself has never given up. Today, variations of radar, sonar and other gadgets have been developed whereby it is expected schools of fish can be easily located. Fish-finders, they are called. And techni cal know-how has kept pace by developing implements that will capture the fish once they are located. Many boats, both pleasure and commercial, now are trying electronics. find good supplies of lamb and pork; be sure to watch for the economy cuts. Chick-I ens and turkeys are among the most economical protein buys. It's a vintage year for oranges and grapefruit. Three kinds of winter pears are still in our markets; they are Bosc, Cornice and , fragrantly juicy, buttery sweet Anjous. ' By taking modern science by the hand the fisherman hopes to remove the element of chance from his sport. The age of miracles has become an actuality. Even the hoped-for use of musical instruments, jingling bells and ringing steel rings which have been re peatedly tried, must take a back seat to electronics. There is no doubt but what scientific know-how will cap ture more fish easier and quicker. We have put a great deal of effort on how to take more fish in wholesale amounts, but we are some what lame on the supply end of the , business. We have failed completely to take into consideration the fish them selves. Not Inexhaustible . , We have done even less in increasing the supply. Who ever subscribes to the fallacy that the supply of fish in the lake or the ocean is inex haustible is either uniform ed or greedy or both, for no thinking person could enter tain such a fallacy in the face of what has happened to .the fishing industry during the past few years. It's always easy to explain away a shortage by laying the blame somewhere else. Never will we admit to over-fishing or indiscriminate killing. When a shortage occurs we lay it on many things. The dumbest reason has been giv en . by the fisherman who claims some other predator, Back Stairs: Confidence Regained By MERRIMAN SMITH UPI White House Reporter Thomasville, Ga.-OPD-Back-stairs at the White House: It was here on the beautiful Glen Arven Country Club golf course that President Eisen hower regained a large mea sure of physical confidence after his 1955 heart attack. Eisenhower came down to Thomasville in February of 1956 and for the first time since his grave illness of the previous September, got in some real physical exercise. His first post-attack visit to the course was a study in cau tion, but he picked up steam with each hole. Before long, he wag hitting tee shots of 180 to 220 yards on the first hole, leading some sports edi tors around the country to question these distances. Before the questions start again this year, it should be pointed out that the first hole at Glen. Arven is downhill much of the way and a prac ticed golfer ordinarily has lit tle difficulty in getting good yardage from the tee. The President and Mrs. Ei senhower, as do most Ameri cans, have their television fa vorites and one of them is George Gobel, the crewcut aside from man, is decreasing the supply. , ' Since the beginning of time creatures of the sea got along swimmingly together. All have been adjusted to the master plan established by a wise Nature, an agency a great deal wiser than any or all of us put together. This balance of Nature will con tinue to function if not too severely interfered with by man's blundering. (Released by The Register and Tribune Syndicate, 1959) comedian. In fact, the Eisen howers like the Gobel shows so ' much that on some past occasions, the White House has borrowed film copies of telecasts they missed. Gobel was in' Washington last -week end for a party at the National Press Club. George is quite a golfer him self, and he swears this is a true story: A few years ago, the' Presi dent was playing at Cherry Hills, his home club in Den ver. A hot-shot golfer and a friend of Gobel's was passing through town and stopped off for a round at Eisenhower's club. The resident professional suggested that the visitor, be ing a man of talent on the fairways and greens, join the President's foursome. The President' was delighted, but the visiting golfer was a bit shaky at the start. Stayed to One Side Instead of firing his best down the. center of the fair way, the visitor was hitting to the right and left. About the third hole, he thought he'd settle down. The Presi dent hit first and marched down the fairway, staying to one side as golfing courtesy requires. , The visitor, after two bad previous holes, was last man to drive from the third tee. He hit a mighty blow, but shanked the ball. The white pill went screaming straight at the President and struck him smack in the seat of the pants, rebounding forcefully into the fairway. -- The visitor raced to the President's side, as did the Secret Service, a White House doctor and the other golfers. Eisenhower patted his hip gingerly and fished out a wal let. He grinned and quickly assured the anxious men around him that he was not hurt. "But I must say," Eisen hower added with a charac teristic choice of words, "that was the first time I've been hit in the pocketbook when it didn't hurt." .
