Small Worlds Around Us By Lynn M. Watkins (Register and Tribune Syndicate, 1961) The Cauliflower Is a Pretty Ridiculous Vegetable The cauliflower is about as ridiculous as a vegetable can get; actually it is a monstros ity, an outlandish head of flowerlets; cabbage - like in taste to some small degree, but quaint in shape and as temper amental as it is unusual. Peculiar that anything so familiar to so many people should be so unusual. Even cauliflower experts, those who know it best and make part or all of their living by rais ing it, cannot always predict what the vegetable will do under varying circumstances. Climatic conditions must be favorable if any degree of success is to reward the grow er. The vegetable must have cool weather, otherwise it will Jumbo-Knit Jacket rap 7218 A ' 1 New leisure hit!

The head is produced by the plant with some extra help from the human grower who, when the plant is young (that is, when the flower cluster be gins to form) gathers up some of the outer leaves, brings them together over the top and ties them together with a piece of raffia. Choosy Plant Inside the little leaf -tent thus formed, the flower head develops; white and tender. The plant is choosy in its preference both as to climate and food requirements. It's considered to be about as fin icky as any plant in any gar den or field. The cauliflower is often said to be a "deranged cab bage" and like its relative the cabbage contains some sul phur compounds which pro duce the disagreeable odor when the vegetable is being cooked. The cauliflower is somewhat milder in flavor than the cabbage and is said to be more easily digested. Technically it has a high water-holding capacity. It is an excellent source of calcium, being about twice as rich in this element as any other vegetable. The head of the cauliflower, or that part which is supposed to be washed or cooked in an upside-down position, consists of the flowers of the plant. These flower parts are greatly shortened and fleshy. So the "head" is merely the flower stalks, but, having been shad ed by the tied-up leaves, it becomes white, solid and ten der. Cook Upside Down Another and important reason for cooking the head in an upside down position is the possibility that insects as well as sand or bits of leaf are pretty apt to be hidden in among the little florets, Soaking or cooking it in an inverted position tends to dis lodge all these unwelcome visitors. The enjoyment of eating cauliflower, either raw or cooked, is really not some thing recently discovered, as the ancient Greeks and early Romans were known to be ex ceedingly fond of this vege table. Since then, of course, the alert lovers of vegetables have discovered many ways to enhance the mild flavor of this bizarre vegetable. The cauliflower, as well as the garden cabbage and broc coli, too, is descended from the original wild cabbage. Actually, what you eat when you enjoy cauliflower or broc coli is the flower. These are about the only two vegetables that develop an edible flower, and both are really botanical monstrosities.

Bertram R. - She waits un til we're out in public to bring up touchy matters. Lola R.-What is there about an audience that turns my hus band into a brute? At home he's polite and sweet to me. But once we're in a restaurant with another couple or at a party, he'll say things to make the others laugh at me or feel sorry for him - things lie s never mentioned at home. The other evening out with friends, he said I had a lot of nerve leaving the supper dish es for him to do. The truth was that he offered to do them while I dressed. But no one believed me when I said that. Then he managed to get in a few more digs about my weight and my extravagances. I realize that some of the husbands who act lovey-dovey in public may really hate their wives and do nothing but snarl at home. But Bert insists he loves me. Then why does he torture me in front of my friends? , Bertram R. - Lola is sensi tive when it comes to her own feelings, but not mine. She doesn't seem to realize that she starts these unpleasant ex changes by bringing up sub jects she knows we don't agree on. She waits until she has the protection of our friends, feeling I won't dare to sound off in front of them. Then she'll ask why I didn't give her $50 for a dress or whose fault it was that our doe eot run over. About the supper disnes, sne had just been bragging to our friends about her etticiency. whereas the truth is the work was so piled up we'd have been an hour late for the ap pointment if I hadn't rolled up my sleeves and got the mess out of the way. Sometimes I admit I tease her when we're out. I want to see if she can take it as well as hand it out. But if she's sore at me about anything, she'd better hash it out with me at home, instead of using our friends as her bodyguard and arguing in public. The Council: This sort of sugar-coated slingshooting be tween husband and wife is a painful practice not only to the contestants but to the cap tive audience who must look on, listen and - worst of all -often take sides! How often has a pleasant so cial engagement been spoiled by the rancorous airing of a marital grievance which one of the mates didn't dare bring up at nomei inis nappeus when the most important thoroughfare to connubial peace is closed, the Avenue of Communication. Some people can thinn, teei, aream, qui they just can't talk or be talk ed to. In marriage, this leads to all kinds of subterfuges and underhand approaches. Lola nd Bertram must open the direct passages to each other nd be brave and loving enough to use them. But a large part oi ine blame for this relationship must be laid at Bertram's feet. (The Council only 'blames' when the remedy is at hand and is easily applicable. Else we don't sit in judgment on frail fellow humans!) No matter how well a hus band and wife get along, no matter how much they say they love each other, they're flops as mates unless tney build up each other's "public image." Its no use pulling one s best loot lorwara spouse trips one up. Marital fidelity includes the "honor" as well as the love and cherish part of the vow. And it's heartwarming all around to hear one marriage partner sing the praises of the other.

Beck er it Co. states that the cyli- cal nature of the chemical in dustry should be attractive to investors at this time-if a business turn-around is be lieved to be near. The firm forecasts that an improvement in the general tone of chemical demand should permit announcement of some long overdue price Increases. A. G. Becker prefers issues in the group which it says stand to profit most from a general business upturn and which have hidden earnings potentials not now generally recognized. It says W. R. Grace. Mon santo, Olin Mathieson and Union Carbide fill the bill. Reynolds Ac Co. recom mends Champion Paper St Fibre to investors seeking a sound longer-term holding. The combination of its strong trade position and its month old agreement to merge with Carpenter Paper provides Champion with a widened sales base and "materially" in creased earning power, Rey nolds says. FORMER OFFICIAL DIES Utica, N. Y.-lUPLi-M. William Bray, 71, former lieutenant governor of New York stato died Tuesday. Kidder, Peabody & Co. con cludes that National Cash Reg ister continues to be an at tractive long term holding for participation in the expanding office equipment field. The firm estimates National Cash earnings for 1060 at $2.50 a share against $2.40 in 1959, and adds that indications point to some further rise in profits during 1961.
