Cooking of Vegetables
By JANE STAFFORD Science Service Staff Writer
THAT . PINCH of baking soda} many cooks like to put with green vegetables to keep the green color during cooking is all right if the pinch is a very tiny one. “A. miserly pinch at the tip of the spoon” is the way U, 8. Agriculture department. home economists describe it. More specifically, they okay about one-sixteenth of a teaspoon of soda for a pound and a half of peas. The easing of the long-familiar pan on the use of baking soda in cooking green vegetables comes as a result of recent research on vegetable cookery at the agriculture| department and the Utah state experiment station. The ban itself resulted from the fact that the pinch of soda most cooks used was large enough to cause considerable loss of vitamins B-1 and C while the vegetables cooked. Besides this, too much soda may give an unpleasant flavor and make the vegetables Sushy.
Mrs. Clayton B. Johnson, Miss E. Leona Wright and Mrs. Harry Coleman Moore (left to right) are members of the First Friends church which is sponsoring a book review for the benefit of the American Friends Service committee. The review will be given by Mrs. Kathryn Turney Garten Tuesday night at Caleb Mills hall in Shortridge high school. It is the first of a series of four to be sponsored this season by the women of the church.
» THE TINY bit of baking soda now EE a in speeds the softening of the fiber in the vegetable. In tests at the agriculture department, peas, which ordinarily take from 10 to 20 minutes to cook, depending on their natural tenderness, cooked in seven to nine minutes when this minute quantity of soda was added. The department has not made similar tests with other vegetables, but the Utah experiment station made earlier tests of frozen lima beans, cooked with and without small quantities of soda. They found that the soda caused no loss of vitamin ©, shortened the cooking time 15‘to 17 minutes, and helped preserve the natural color of the beans. , Whether or not soda is added, agriculture department scientists recommend starting green peas in just enough briskly boiling water to cover them. Sait may be added at the start or end of cooking. It makes little difference in food value, though salting at the start helps to get the seasoning through the peas. Cooking peas with the lid on is

A HOSTESS who entertains a great deal says she has her fun after parties are over, and guess what doing? & Examining feminine purse accessories which guests left behind, and

You would be by almost any host or hostess who picked up one harboring a soiled puff, spilled rouge and powder, or a gummed-up lpstick. » » » IF A GIRL must use such messy objects, she should guard them so they don’t escape her clutches, What accessories left behind do you think made a great impression even upon this worldly hostess of whom I speak?

Brushing Improves Blanket Quality
You probably brush your blankets to bring up the nap after laundering them, but try extra brushing between launderings too. This. helps keep them soft and fluffy to preserve their warmth giving powers these wintry nights, Brush blankets lengthwise from binding to binding, never across or in circles.
Divide Washing To Save Soap
When sorting clothes for the weekly washing, make it a habit to divide them according to the degree of soil as well as to the usual considerations of fabric and color, If you first wash the pieces which are not very dirty, you can use the same suds for a second or even a third load. This will save a substantial amount of soap.
