table is wonderful but the menu is am-

anany of the items are foreign words

GREENS FRESH'
FROM THE GARDEN
are gardens are really beginning .to
show up well with greens of all kinds,
leaf-lettuce, green onions and radish-
es. Spinach will be ready soon too,
as will the young leaves ,of the'beets
that will have to be thinned out.
The Canadian homemaker is aware
pf the necessity of making good use of
all home-grown, vegetables so as to
relieve the demand on meat, flour,
cheese and eggs. These foods are
needed in large quantities for shipment
overseas.
Too' many people don't know that
green onions are good all the way up
the stalk. In other words, that both
the white and green of the onion.
should be used. If there is too much
of the green, part of it may be chop-
pel up and used to give a nice onion
flavour to soups, salads, gravies, escal-
loped dishes and stews. The delicate
flavour blends up very well in dishes
,where larger onions are commonly
used. Green onions acid a nice touch
of colour also,
The first radishes are usually eaten'
raw, but after a while, when the fam-
ily no longer seems to appreciate diem,
they can be cooked like any other veg-
etable and served with a cream sauce
or in a cream soup. Those who do not
yeally enjoy radishes raw, may like the
flavour when cooked, as most .of the
nippiness disappears. Radish tops
may be piquant when cooked but since
the flavour is very pronounced, only
tender young leav,es should -be used.
As it would take a great quantity of
radish leaves to serve a family, it is a
good idea to cook them along with
other greens.
The home economists of the Con-
sumer Section of the Dominion De-
partment of Agriculture suggest the
following recipt:
