For Anything the Homemaker a When marked for the benefits it contains in its leaves, spinach has without any doubt "high score," The high iron and vitamin content is valuable in the diet of both sick and well, Now that so many vegetables are sold by the pound rather than ye and peck it may help some inex. as well as those who have marketed for years by "dry measure" to know that one pound of spinach will serve a family of three, With this in mind it's comparatively easy to compute the amount needed for one's indi- vidual family, As mothers have learned the vir- tues of spinach the demand has been so stimulated that its procur- able in the markets the whole year round. The early spring harvest usually is the heaviest and of fin- est quality. When you go to market and shop for spinach, look for plants with plenty of good healthy leaves, This vegetable is an edible foliage so the condition of the leaves is im- portant. Medium sized plants of good, dark green color leaves fresh and crisp, free from sand or dirt, are desirable and means that the vegetable will be tender and a good bright green when cooked and dressed for the table. Spinach is prone to imperfec- tions even as all other life of the vegetable kingdom. The most com- mon of these being weeds, plant insects, sandiness, yellow or wilted leaves and woodiness, Nowadays its very seldom that a shipping of spinach is decidedly weedy. However, weedy spinach weight, the boy or girl "training" table he Women's Corner of Interest to nd the Housekeeper means loss of weight as well as time in sortin out the weeds. Spinach- which is very sandy or dirty, is extremely difficult to clean, for the grit seems to defy all wash- ing and is gure to remain in the cooked dish. If the leaves are light colored and of a yellow tinge and tightly curled, plant insects present and the spinach itself will not have a pleasant flavor when cooked. that should not be purchased. plants with a yellow leaf do not mean an inferior quality and of course the centre of the plants of- ten contains leaves which are most desirable. are usually If this condition prevails, of spinach particular lot A few tender yellow baby If the housewife will buy her spinach with care, cook and serve jt with care and then devise an in- riguing name for the dish, she will hear no more grumbling from the assembled family at meal time. Everybody, yound, old and indif- ferent, she who would diet to gain in weight, she who would lose in at the may eat spinach and be benefited. SPINACH SALAD Two cups cooked and chopped spinach, 1 teaspoon salt, 1 teaspoon paprika, 4 tablespoons olive ofl, 2 tablespoons lemon juice, 3 hard cooked eggs. Combine spinach, salt, paprika, and yolks of eggs. Add oil and lemon juice and mix thoroughly with a fork. Shape in small molds and serve on a bed of lettuce with the whites of eggs cut in shreds and sprinkled over the top. Helpful Hints for Harassed Housewives One of the nicest hors d'oeuvres is the egg-yolk rose on chopped green olives. Halve hard-boiled eggs lengthwise, half fill the yolk hole with chopped olives, mix the yolk and mayonnaise, vinegar and onfon juice, and make an artistic rose atop the olive. - * LJ An excellent home-made polish for furniture can be made by using one part of lemon oil to two parts of boiled linseed oil.

You will not regret the time spent in making removable covers for both your small and large iron- ing boards. Use unbleached mus- lin, shape to the boards, and sew sets of tape strings to tie on.

For white or light hats use art gum all over so a cleaned spot will not seem lighter than the rest of the hat. Ld LJ LJ Before cutting into meringue, wet the knife each time in cold water.
