Tar Heel Kitchen By Miss York Kiker Wow, it's fresh corn time in Carolina!! What is your favorite summer vegetable? Of course, it is hard to settle on only one but surely sweet corn must be among your favorites. Hurry out and buy corn now while it is plentiful. And "hurry" is the word to re member for enjoying corn at its best. The sooner you use sweet corn after picking, the sweeter and juicier it is. Also be sure to keep corn cool if there is a delay before using it. If you husk corn before putting in the refrigerator, wrap it in a moisture-proof bag or put it in a moisture proof container to keep the 4 kernels from drying out One home economist had her own garden and invited guests for supper one evening. What was her menu? An ample supply of corn on the cob with plenty of butter was what she promised and was what she served. You may be sure the guests who seldom had access to freshly pulled corn were thrilled with the treat. The goodness of corn doesn't need much "adorn ment" other than plenty of butter and some salt, but several suggested ways of pre paration are given in case you wish variety.

It's Up To You You Vork to earn it for 50 weeks . . . the kids talk about it for six . . . you pack for it for two . . . and then it's here -- the annual summer vaca tion. When it's over, can you look back on a wonderful family experience that will be relived for the next 50 weeks - or was^it a nightmare of confusion? Thirty million families will tour America by auto this summer, three out of four using the new interstate high ways and many plagued by empty gas tanks, flat tires in the middle of nowhere, "no vacancy" signs on motels and the belated pronouncement by friends when they return that they missed "the most exciting attraction of all." The unprecedented popu larity of the interstate high ways is due to the safety and ease of driving them. Yet, many a motorist acts as if these new highways are mag netized and he cant bring himself to pull off at occas ional exits, primarily because he doesnt know what they lead to. ' While travel and safety ex perts dont advocate taking all the fun out of * vacation by pre-planning it like a tour of Europe, they do recom mend planning ahead at least by the hour if not at the start of each day. All that's needed is an interstate-oriented travel guide like the free Travelaide available at most intentate service stations. The Travelaide map fo cuses on interstate routes, in terchanges and feeder high ways only. A concise table indicates the mileage to up coming exits and features a symbol at each interchange offering the traveler's brand of gasoline. The directory lists, by exit, motels, restau rants, recreation areas and tourist attractions. Using a device such as the free Travelaide, the motorist can plan two-hour rest breaks to combat fatigue, schedule regular stops at his choice of stations for gas and auto ser vicing, and confidently know when and where to stop for meals. He can decide in mid -afternoon where to spend the night and, if desired, call ahead for reservations. Hell be alerted to the various at tractions available at each ex It.
