SHE BEE: OMAHA, SATURDAY -AUGUST 7, 1920. - . i , -ii. , 1 " ... ' . s Vegetables for All of the Family By LORETTO C. LYNCH. "Seems too bad we have so many cucumbers in the garden and none of us can eat them. They just disagree." So remarked a house wife fortunate to have a garden of her own. She used to pare the cu cumber .end soak it in salt for a couple of hours. Then she would slice it with onion, pour vinegar over and chill. And soon, the family got to a point where each suffered with indigestion. Moreover, when ice cream was served at the end of a meal at which cucumber had been served more than one member of the family suffered. There are palatable and digest ible ways'' of serving cucumbers that will make them decidedly 2t seeds easy. The flesh of the cucum ber may be pared and cut open so as 'to make the removal of the tractive. The flesh of the cucum ;bec.,is then cut into pieces of simi lar size and boiled in salted water. It becomes translucent. It may then be -served with melted butter and finely minced parsley. To add to --its attractiveness it may be dusted with paprika. , Another way of using the cucum ber is to remove seeds as before and" Cook ' it with tiny onions. I have seen a dish of these boiled cucumber and onions served with white sauce and garnished with the yolk of a hard-boiled egg. pushed through the fine strainer. Paprika of very .finely minced parsley, if artistically used, will often enhance the; golden color of the egg yolk. . -Most of us enjoy fried egg plant, and a very similar dish may be prepared from cucumbers. Pare the cucumber and slice lengthwise," removing the seeds. Salt and arrange to place a heavy weight over the vegetable -to drain out the natural1 water. A flatiron is good for this purpose. After sev eral hours, dip each piece in flour, then in beaten egg, and lastly in fine bread or cracker crumbs. Fry till golden "brown in deep fat. Serve with strips of nice crisp bacon. Perhaps you are tired of serving the garden lettuce raw. Collect the outside, torn or unattractive pieces and cook in the- pot with a small piece of salt pork. Lots of people perfef this to cabbage. Then there are radishes. Few people ever thiiik to took these, Boiled in salted water and care fully drained, these may be served with melted butter or a white sauce. They taste quite like young white turnips, "v The long, icicle radish is just the thing. for frying. It is well to par boil them for five minutes or so and then drain and dip in flous, egg and crumbs and fry in deep fat. These may form the main disjj at a lun cheon on a warm summer day if served with fa cheese sauce. To make this, melt two tablespoons of butter and stir in two level table spoons of flour and a half level teaspoon of salt. Add one-half pint (one measuring cup full) of milk. Cook, stirring until the sauce boils and then gradually stir in one fourth measuring - cup of grated cheese, sirring until the cheese is melted and well, incorporated in the sauce. American. Swiss, or any of the Italian or French cheeses are all ap propriate. ' ThiY sauce may be used with any of the' vegetables or with boiled J-ice or macftronj. . . Then there are the tops of young rhubarb. These are often disregard ed. If they are young they may be Specials for Saturday Home-Dressed Roasting Chickens at, lb. 7. 2Sd Broilers, lb. 49 Fresh Beef .Tongues, all sizes, per lb. ......... ..29K Fresh Sweet Breads, lb 35d Sugar Cured Picnic Hams, per lb. 22 Choice Steer Short Rib of Beef, per lb. :.10 Choice Steer Pot Roast, lb. 15 Choice Steer Rump Roast, per lb. ..... 25 Young Mutton Legs, lb . . 17 Mt & Young Mutton Chops, lbt.20 Choice Steer Round Steakr ; per lb. . . : . . . . ... . .25 Choice Steer Sirloin Steak, -per lb. .....-.. 27 All Brands of Creamery Butter, per lb .57 Granulated Sugar, 100 lbs. for w. ...$20.50 Grape Juice, qt. 73 Pure Strain Honey, large jar, for :..30 Large Juicy Lemons, do; .2S Fresh Tomatoes, bskt .20 O.

The tops of beets or turnips may be cooked, but it is well, if possible, to add some real -spinach to these when cooking to improve the flavor. It is more attractive to serve these greens chopped. ; Drain any water from them and .reserve the water for soup. The greensmay. be put through the' coarse cutter of the food chopper. Study your vegetable possibilities. Try to avoid having the family tire of them. This can be accomplished by preparing them in a variety of ways and by careful, attractive serving. Attractive and inexpensive '.'cur tains are made of tinted scrim cross stitched in simple patterns with washable cotton. The scrim is easy to work on and the holes of the scrim are a guide to the pattern making. Cross-stitch patterns can be bought, but those who do any of this kind of needle work can make their own on paper and then follow it in the scrim. , ; , . In England if a woman occupies a house with IS windows she is eligible for jury duty. - Toast Sandwiches Place a very thing slice of cold toast between two slices of thin bread and butter in the form of a sandwich, adding a seasoning of pepper and salt to taste. This sandwich may be varied by thinly spreading over the toast some potted chicken or ham, or some very fine slices of cold meat. The addition of a crisp lettuce. leaf between the layers of bread would be appreciated by many. However, -any of these forms will be found very tempting to the appetite. Garnish plate with lettuce leaves and serve sma!l radishes as a relish.
