POTATO AND TOMATO CASSEROLE SAVORY PEPPER SQUASH PEACH UPSIDE-DOWN CAKE For real economy of fuel and stove space, plan a complete • oven meal, advises the Food Council, Ontario Department of Agriculture and Food. • Baked pepper squash makes a delicious easy -to -prepare ,dish when sprinkled with salt And pepper and dotted generously with butter. The squash goes well with a potato and tomato cas.serole, to make a hearty fall meal. • POTATO AND TOMATOI CASSERovg 3 large potatoes 3 medium onion, cut into rings 1 tsp. salt Vi cup French -type liquid dressing 4 medium tomatoes, skinned and thinly sliced. tsp. pepper Boil potatoes in skins, peel and cut into 1/4 -inch slices. Heat half dressing in .a skillet and saute onions Until soft. In a 11/2-eir 2 -quart casserole, layer potatoes, tomatoes and onions, sprinkling with salt and pepper between layers. Finish with a layer of tomatoes and onions. Pour over remaining dressing. Cover and bake at 375 deg for 30 to '40 minutes. Serves four to six. • Fresh tomatoes are now in season Are you finding it difficult to keep up with the tomato harvest? The home economists • of the Canada Department of Agriculture, anticipating plentiful supplies in home • gardens and in local markets, have two recipes to help you use them now and enjoy them later. "Fresh Tomato Barbecue Sauce" HOUSEHOLD -TIPS • To remove insects from green vegetables, wash in salt water, but do not let the vegetables soak in it. • Every good cook knows that a pinch or two of salt added in cooking adds the natural flavor of any dish, from steaks to souffles...so ladies, use , more seasoning during the hot weather — lots of servings of tomatoes, • corn, radishes, and other delicious vegetables, as well as melons whose flavor can be improved by salt, believe it or not. • BARGAIN SUGAR •• Sugar is still a bargain. Although its price has moved about with war and peace, the current 10 cent range per pound is close to that of 60 years ago, reported the „Canadian ,Sugar Institute. About 88 percent of the refined sugar in Canada • comes from imported raw cane sugar. The remaining 12 percent is produced from sugar beets grown by farmers in Manitoba, Allied% and Quebec. • ' MERINGUES ' Meringues collapse from weakness. The secret is to beat the sugar into the egg white a spoonful at a time, and then beat some more until the mixture forms stiff peaks. Sugar .added early, increases whipping • tithe, lessens , ,chance of overbeating, and permits the lotmation of a. fine, bubbled, stable foam. Sugar sprinkled over the meringue before baking will make cutting easier. 1 0 • • GODERICH'S OWN . 411. • WELCOME SERVICE would like to call on you with ""housewarming gifts" and information about. your new location.

It makes a generous amount and may be served hot or cold with meats. The "Quick Vegetable Relish" recipe is uncooked and has a mild flavor. It is handy to have on hand to accompany a plate of cold Both sauce and relish may be stored in the refrigerator. • FRESH TOMATO - BARBECUE SAUCE 4 cups diced tomatoes 3/4 cup chopped onion 1 clove garlic, crushed 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce 2 tablespoons brown sugar 1 tablespoon horseradish 1'/2 teaspoons salt 1/2 teaspoon paprika 1/8"teaspoon chili powder '/2 cup cider vinegar, Combine all ingredients and simmer uncovered until thIckened, about 40 minutes. Stir frequently during the last 10 minutes of cooking to prevent sticking. Makes about 3 cups sauce.

Refrigerate for several hours before serving. Makes 4 cups relish. ta Long slow cooking of such cuts as the blade, cross rib and brisket can bring good returns with little "pot watching" on behalf of the cook. The home economists of the Canada Department of Agriculture assure us that these cuts have excellent flavor when cooked at simmering temperatures until . fork tender, and make economical eating. Browning first in hot fat, adding a small amount of liquid and covering tightly, the meat may be cooked on top of the stove or in a 325 deg F oven. Prepared vegetables cut in serving -size pieces may be added during the last hour of cooking,' providing a meal -in -a -dish. It's time to do preserves Now that there's a hint of frost in the air, there's not much time left to make jams, jellies and conserves. But fortunately atno time of the year is there such an array of preserving fruits — purple grapes and plums, pears, apples .and late peaches. , There's a fruit to suit every taste and every preserve. What's more, the modern homemaker knows how easy it is to pregerve with commercial fruit pectin. She knows she can preserve any fruit, simply by following the recipes which come with every package or bottle -of pectin. There's no fear of failure — her jam or jelly will set perfectly and it will retain the color and flavor of perfectly ripened fruit because the cooking time is so short. • PEAR AND ORANGE JAM Yield: about 10 medium glasses (5 lbs. jam) 41/2,,cups prepared fruit (about 2 quarts (21/2 lbs.) ripe bears and 2 oranges) './2 cup chopped walnut$ 51/2 cups (2 lbs. 6 oz.) su gar 1 box powdered fruit pectin First, prepare the fruit.

Now used commercially; the method introduced hy Dr. Robert Stark, P. R. Dean and W. G. Simpson of the Kentville Research Station not only requires less preservative than before but makes it possible to store the cider for longer periods at room temperature. The treatment is simple. Cider makers add 250 parts per million of sodium benzoate to the cider, heat it at 14b .degrecs F. for 20 minutes, bottle and cool it. The cider can be put in bottles before it goes through the heat treatment. Extensive tests on apples in varying condition shOw this method yields a tasty product' that keeps for eight months at room temperature. Previously. • commercial producers of cider used a high temperature of (190 degrees F.) which destroyed much of the fresh apple flavor, or maximal concentrations of sodium benzoate or, potassium sorbate (1000 ppm). In the latter case an undesirable flavor is introduced and shelf life without refrigeration is severely limited. CAN BE PREVENTED As a result of medical research, rheumatic fever, and forerunner of rheumatic heart disease, can now be prevente'd, the Heart Foundation pointed out recently. • 14,1 GODERIOLI SIONAIATAII,THVRSDAY, steTemBRA 000. 3A The Muse Thumb T\ The road 1(0 Goderich ".
