Better Be Very Careful So closely does the poison o u s morel mushroom re semble the harmless, edible variety that it can be easily mistaken for it. It is called the "false morel." It even grows in the same places, and may be there among the harmless morels. The edible, and much sought-after morel mushroom looks like a cone-shaped sponge three or even four inches long. It is tan colored and wrinkled, with irregular convolutions. Connoisseurs consider it the very best of the wild mushrooms. It comes up overnight in the rich for est floor after hejvy rains. . The false morel, which nay be growing alongside the true morel, is also wrinkled and deeply convolute, but the cap is of a more irregular shape, not so cone-like, but f Utter and more globular. The cap of the false morel is dark brown, four or five inches in diameter at the top of a short, thick, chalky white stem.

Caution Needed The true morel mushroom is the one most fungi gather ers consider safe to eat, as it is shaped and colored unlike the majority of toadstools. But inasmuch as both the true and its poisonous cousin so often grow side by side, it is a wise gatherer who exer cises extreme caution when picking. In the hurry to gather a great many in the shortest time, some- of the false ones are liable to be in cluded, later to cause serious illness or even death. A common mushroom, often appearing in great numbers in pastures, meadows, lawns and gardens, so closely re sembles a poisonous variety it is advisable to ignore it. One that bears the common name of "chalky" grows in such an environment. It is edible, but it is too close in appearance to the poisonous ones. It is best to forego eating it. Mushrooms have an affinity between lubrications, its self-adjusting brakes and you're wide eyed ! '. Well, why close your eyes to anything so irresistible? There's just one thing to do. Test drive a Monterey and discover for yourself that the fun of mod ern living is only just beginning. for specific environments. We can almost be positive in say ing which kinds will be found in any particular place. The type of soil and type of tree determine the variety. The false morel is normally found in pine or birch woodlands . . . even in swamps. Most mushrooms prefer coniferous woodlands. Usually they ap pear after heavy rains. The organic material usual ly present in pastures is con ducive ' to fungus growth. Lawns and gardens fertilized with animal matter often en courage various fungi. Most of these can be considered questionable as human food. So, you might ask, when all the chips are down, how would you tell the edible from the poisonous mush rooms? Taking all things per taining to mushrooms into consideration, remembering the edible ones sometimes re semble the bad, and vice versa, there remains one very sure way to - be safe: buy your mushrooms at the food store.
