DAGUE V, Author of Si*t*r Mary’* Kitchoa S EPTEMBER marks the opening of the harvest season—the season when markets fairly teem with col orful fruits and vegetables, eager to add their delicious wealth of min erals, vitamins and bulk to our daily meals. Purple-lustered egg plants, scarlet tomatoes, silvery-green lima beans', vivid peppers and cool green cucumbers, as well as fragrant peaches and melons — these are only a few of the abundant of- f er ings from garden and ori chard. This year ev ery American housewife is canning with thankful zeal. The war Is over and we want to fill our cup boards for our re-united families. Salad mixtures and soup mixtures will add zest to winter meals so add a few jars to your regular store. Vegetable salad mixtures are best canned in slightly sweetened vine gar. The acid—vinegar—aids in the preservation of the vegetables as well as making them pleasantly tart for salads. Lima beans, tiny flower- ettes of cauliflower, neat cubes of turnip, slices of baby carrots, threads of red and green peppers, whole kernels of sweet corn and late peas make a colorful mixture. However, ybu can of course, concoct any mix ture you may fancy, or have in your garden. Speaking of salads, if you haven’t put up a few jars of pickled beets try and do it now. There’s no garnish more attrac tive In winter than slices of crimson beets. Vegetable, fish and meat salads gtvin immeasur ably from this simple accessory. They're good for the Christmas holidays and work in beautiful ly again in February for St. Valentine’s parties as well as one of the national colors for pa triotic parties. Pruit mixtures are good to can for salads.and fruit cups. A combination of peaches and pears and melon balls is good to use as is. or you can add fresh fruit when you make your salad or fruit cup. r.i By ELLIOTT PINE r NWNS Sp«rt* Writer ( •*j the battle between the profes- *sr:ial football leagues, the old Na- * i«ftal circuit Is defender, while the ^••.American Conference is attack- •V with cash and brains, ready to -as up to $300,000 in its first three ' •ears. Players’ salaries and bonuses ‘ ave been pushed to astonishing ;*nd unprofitable levels by competi- » ve bidding. Robert Waterfleld of *ne Rams is on top, with a straight wdary of $20,000 for the season. Bemle Bierman, U. of Minnesota coach, says that it will take three years to rebuild the Gophers into the mighty pre war machine. Last year they finished the season with five defeats in a row. Notre Dame, on the other hand, has so many let- termen back that some of them can’t be used, even as third stringers. The Conference claims that the National league has not been giving the customers a chance to see real competitive play—that the schedules ere arranged to insure the biggest gate receipts, and to keep the “Big Four” — the Washington Redskins, New York Giants, Chicago Bears and Green Bay Packers—always on the winning side. The National league retorts that the upstart Con ference will wreck the professional game. One family is providing 473 pounds of tackling might for the U. of Maryland ... the Stuart brothers of Columbus, O., add up to that figure. Adam stands 6 fee, 2* inches and weighs 253 pounds. Bob is 6 feet, S inches and 220 pounds. The Milwaukee Brewers have a center fielder who is likely to be heard from in the big time. He is Dave Philley ... as well ' as a classy ball chaser, he is good with the stick. Ted Lyons, ' White Sox manager, plans to call on him for next year. An other Sox prospect is Karl Er- misch, third sacker on the Madi- • sonville, Ky., club, who hit .300. The club’s first baseman. Bill' Haschak, is considered too small for the majors, although he bat ted .370. NOTICE OF SALE of N. SIX BRITISH AMBASSADORS . . .

A similar increase has been given in mouldings of western pine, he explained, and this week’s increase restores the normal price relation ship between the two groups. Both increases, the district director said, were authorized to cover ad vancing cost of lumber since 1942, as well as today’s higher wage rates.

These increases, amounting to $1.00 per hundred pounds for baby ..mas and $1.50 per hundred pounds for all other varieties, will ,7ork out to about a three-cents- per-pound increase in retail stores, Talbert explained. More Items On Decontrol List— OPA has issued another list of items suspended indefinitely from price control, either because of heir insignificance in the cost of .lying, or because present and ex pected supplies are enough to sat isfy demands. The list includes the following items: baby carriages, strollers .*nd walkers; dry batteries; f >un- *ain pens and mechanical r 'cils tnd sets; razor blades and r'^ors, jccepting electric razors.
