Heap Salad Bowls
With Vitamins
For Summer
Help Yourself to Vitamins: This
pretty as a picture salad bowl is
made simply by alternating rows of
lettuce wedges and mounds of po
tato salad, garnished with slices
of hard-cooked eggs. It’s hearty
enough for a main dish, even with
out meat.
Summer is the time to heap high
the salad bowl and bring generous
portions of nature's bounty of vita
mins and minerals to the table.
Active summer play and strenu
ous work calls for big servings of
health and energy producing foods.
That's why the salad bowls play a
major role in the menu parade.
There’s another reason, too, why
salads are going to be important
this season. When
the butcher has
no meat and the
cupboard yields
nothing of inter
est to the home
maker, she can
always go to her refrigerator and
bring out lovely greens, juicy fruits
and berries, toss them together and
serve an eye-appealing salad. If
more substantial salads are desired,
especially for main dishes, they can
be flecked with the white and gold
of protein-rich eggs, unrationed, lus
cious bits of chicken or well chilled
and subtly seasoned fish.
Vary the trimmings and change
the dressing, and no salad can ever
become monotonous. If oils and fats
for salad dressings are scarce, put
them together with sour cream,
fruit juices, vinegar or cooked
dressings that require little fat.
Here are two main dish salads that
Will go over big with the family.
One stars eggs and the other chick
en:
Star Deviled Eggs.
(12 Eggs)
12 hard-cooked eggs
2 tablespoons salad dressing
1 tablespoon lemon juice
IK teaspoons mustard
IK teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
% teaspoon salt
K teaspoon pepper
Remove shells from eggs Cut a
•lice from both ends, cutting the slice
at the round end
deep enough to
expose the yolk.
Cut deep gashes
into the egg white
around the round
ed end to give a
saw tooth edge.
Pressing gently at the bottom, force
out the yolk. Press yolk and egg
white that was cut off through the
sieve. Add remaining ingredients
and beat until smooth. Refill shells.
Garnish tops if desired.
To serve as a salad, lay on top
of sprigs of watercress or other
greens. Or, use as a garnish for
other salad platters.
*BufTet Chicken Salad.
(Serves 8)
2 cups cubed, cooked chicken
K cup french dressing
4 cups boiled rice, chilled
Lynn Says
Different Salad Dressings: If
fruits and vegetables do not give
enough variety to make salads in
teresting, season the dressing it
self for flavor plus.
Club Dressing: To 1 cup of
mayonnaise, add 1 tablespoon
chopped currants, 1 tablespoon
chopped raisins, 1 tablespoon
chopped nuts.
Indian Dressing: V« cup of
chow-chow to 1 cup mayonnaise.
Tartar Dressing is excellent on
flsh salads. To 1 cup mayonnaise,
add 2 tablespoons chopped sweet
gherkins, 1 tablespoon capers, 1
tablespoon chopped parsley and 2
tablespoons chopped olives.
Thousand Island Dressing is
easily tossed together. For a cup
of mayonnaise, use cup chili
sauce, 1 tablespoon green pepper
and chopped stuffed olives.
Egg Dressing is lovely to look at
when made by adding 1 chopped
hard-cooked egg, 1 tablespoon
chopped pimiento and 1 table
spoon India relish to 1 cup may
onnaise.
A bit of leftover meat? Add
it to the eggs. Especially good
are diced ham, tongue or dried
beef.

Farm Employment
Total farm employment in th«
United States in 1944 was about 7
per cent less than the average of
the period 1935-39, according to esti
mates of the Bureau of Agricul
tural Economics. During 1943 the
farms of the nation were operated
with a total farm employment 5 per
cent below the five prewar years.
This means, therefore, that the total
employment was reduced in 1944
about 2 per cent below the average
employed during 1943. In the 1935
39 period about 10,700,000 people
were engaged in farm employment
on the average. Roughly three
fourths of these were family work
ers, and about one-fourth was hired
labor. In Illinois, Indiana, Michi
gan, Ohio and Wisconsin about
1,475,000 were employed on the aver
age during the same period, of
whom 77 per cent were family la
borers. For 1944 the proportion of
family labor W'as unchanged for'
the nation, but for the foregoing \
states the proportion represented by'
family labor had increased to 83
per cent

Military Sanitation
Known as “the father of military
sanitation,” Sir John Pringle was
the first man to make an exhaustive
study of the special health problems
of military personnel, and to urge
preventive measures. He published
his findings in 1752 in a book he
called “Observations on the Dis
eases of the Army.” In it he traced
the causes of military health haz
ards to faulty diet, lack of cleanli
ness, exposure to heat and cold, as
wrell as to other conditions rising |
from combat life. His proposed ]
remedy for reducing the "calamities
of war,” as he called them, was a
program of sanitation, which in- j
eluded large and clean quarters for
the men, hygienic provisions for
food preparation, and sanitary
toilet facilities on the march as well
as in barracks life. He laid down, l
for the first time, the true principles
of military sanitation which have
been expanded through the years
until we now have the outstanding
provisions that guard the health and
welfare of the American men fight- ,
ing the battles of the Second World
war.

Remote Sinkiang Called
Asia’s Center of Gravity
Sinkiang, where civil war is re
ported raging between rebel Mos
lems and Chinese troops, has been
called Asia’s ‘‘center of gravity.” In
the heart of the world's largest land
mass, this westernmost Chinese
province is nearly a thousand air
miles over deserts and high moun
tains, from the nearest open water
at the Bay of Bengal, points out the
National Geographic society. It has
no railways. Its roads are more or
less modernized versions of ancient
caravan trails that men knew be
fore Marco Polo. It is remote, iso
lated from its neighbors by natural
barriers, and little traveled.
Yet, because of its location, Sin
kiang is also, paradoxically a pas
sageway for traffic and a signifi
cant buffer land where Russian,
Chinese, and British - Indian in
fluences meet. When China was
all but isolated from the outside
world by Japanese blockade, it was
through Sinkiang that much of the
Russian supplies continued to come.
This remote inner region has long
been the object of scientific investi
gation and exploration.
