14-THE CAROLINA TIMES SAT., MARCH 27, 1976 IC3F0GRAQS By Mary J. Wliitmore Home Economist GARDENING IS FOR EVERYONE Anyone can grow a garden-even you! Gardening has become one of the most popular hobbies in America since the throat of food shortages and rising food prices. Savings in food costs, case of growing, garden freshness and unequalled quality, are all good reasons for having your own garden. And there are many side benefits as well, such as recreation, a change of pace for office workers, interesting experiences for children and pride and satisfaction of showing off what you have grown. In North Carolina there are excellent soUs and climate lor gardening. You can grow more of the vegetables and many traits and you can harvest fresh food from your garden almost year round. Space needn't be a problem. Even apartment dwellers can get into the act with a window box or mini garden. The radish, leaf lettuce and onions you can grow in a windown bos will make a mighty tasty salad. If you want to add some home grown tomatoes, grow a few in a bushel basket or bucket on your.patio or porch. Don't "knock using some of these places until you have tried them If you do have limited space outside, you will want to consider producing food for the most nutrition. Good choices would be carrots, onions, beets, broccoli, cabbage, winter squash, spinach, snap beans, cauliflower and tomatoes. Radishes, lettuce and garden peas add a pleasant variety to meals, but provide less nutrition for the space they use. In a year, we eat about Si 00 worth of fruits and vegetables per person, or $400 a year for a family of four. Some or all of this can be produced at home. A half -acre garden, properly managed, could supply these needs. The out-of-pocket cost for such a garden (seed, dertilizer, etc.) would not exceed $50. Thus the value of such a garden would be about S350 or about one dollar per day. Many of us don't have the land or the desire to produce a half-acre garden. So the L6pbrtuniiyd, 'save money -would be reduced as the size of the garden is reduced. Even a very small garden can result in savings though. For example, one good tomato plant can produce S4 to $5 worth of tomatoes. Eight to ten tomato plants can provide an adequate fresh supply for a family of four and result in a $40 to $50 savings in the food budget. Your County Agricultural Extension Service can be a valuable source of gardening information. Publications on gardening are available, covering such information as soil preparation, planting dates, varieties, fertilization, and insect and disease control. Now is the time to make plans and start spring plantings. So, why not join millions of your American neighbors this year and plant a garden'Make yourself welcome to the great outdoors. Yes, IVe AH Talft By Marcus H. Boulwar e HOW THE SPEECH IS OUTLINED it One of the most valuable steps in speech training is the construction of a speech outline, that is, set down the ideas in outline form. This permits easy analysis, development, and organization. vA'The outline is not a hindrance but an asset The clearness of topical points, content, and arrangement of a speech is tangible evidence of efficient predelivery outlining. The speaker who uses an outline in the preparation of the speech fuids . the. effect beneficial, it helps to assure self-confidence through positive construction. The lazy person or careless person avoids the outline and scribbles an biadequate plan of speech construction. The speaker should : look upon the outline as a valuable aid and reap the rewards of time slaved, anxiety abandoned, and successful communication advanced. Usually the outlined in marked off into these divisions: (1) introduction, (2) body, and (3) conclusion. Each division reveals a special purpose. The introduction reveals the subject of the speech. The body elaborates upon die subject. The conclusion reviews and ends the speech. , READERS: For answers to questions on speech, include a self-addressed long businessenvelopewith stamp, and send to 14. H.

Each serving has a light, crusty bread surrounding a uniquely spreadable mixture of deviled ham, peanut butter and a dash of mustard. Cheddar cheese mixed with the quick bread batter is a tantalizing foil for the ham and peanut-flavored spread. Spread-A-Bread is a whole meal, a sandwich loaf to simply lice and serve. Its nutritional qualities deserve flaunting, too. Enriched self-rising flour contains the B-vitamins - niacin, thiamine and riboflavin plus the minerals, iron and calcium. Spread-A-Bread has all this plus the protein and added nutrients of what's inside. Enriched self -rising flour lets you forget the salt and baking powder.
