Attractive Arrangement Essential
When Preparing Summer Salads

This season brings fresh vege
tables from the gardens, and there
is no -better way in which they can
be used in salads. Salads are not
new. Their origin dates -back to
the time of the early Greeks and
Romans, who knew them as salets.
This name salet inferred the use
of salt as the only seasoning. Later
this exteded to salt and lemon juice
and then salt, oil and vinegar.
The simplest salad is sometimes
the most appealing. Good taste and
attractive arrangement are the es
sential qualities necessary in salad
making. A balanced meal should
contain a salad, using-
some sort.
Everyone knows that
majority of people eat
eyes, and this must be
mind when planning and
ing the salad plate.
The home economists of
sumer section, Dominion
merit of Agriculture, realize that
the requisites of a good salad have
been repeated over and over again,
but they feel that these funda
mentals are so important that they
should be emphasized and little de
tails are comparable to those last
touches an artist gives to
his picture.
All ingredients should
crisp and dry. The most
tory method of obtaining _
pearance is by keeping everything
on ice, if possible. Be sure the sal
ad does not look mutilated or
handled. Make salads appealing to
the eyes and taste and the whole
family will go
