Settle, a member of the Elm Grove-Haw River Extension Homemakers Club in Rockingham County. The Settles recently moved into a new brick house, near ReidsviUe, which they planned and built in their spare time, observes Mrs. Zadie Jackson, extension home economics agent, Rock ingham County. But that is only half the story. Mrs. Settle and her three daughters decorated the seven room house by making drap eries and shades and by reupholstering and refin ishing furniture the family already had on hand. After all this re-doing and re-making, the cost of building and furnishing this house was less than half what another family may have paid for a similar house, the agent pointed out. HANGING GARDENS A beautiful “hanging garden” - is a special treat for friends and family who visit Loyce Little of Richmond Couhty. Miss Little, a retired school teacher, designed the hanging garden by fastening containers of ferns and flowering plants from the limbs of a large shade tree. The hanging garden, located outside the den window, adds beauty to the inside of the home as well as to the outside,, notes Martha Adams, extension home econom ics agent. Miss Little, who got the idea for her garden from a special interest meeting, says she doesn’t mind the extra watering that is required to keep the hanging garden beautiful. aprons inspire: Sixteen “Golden Agers” in Cleveland County are wearing beautiful aprons, thanks to the clothing leader of the Galilee-Goldmine Extension Homemakers Club. “And this gift,” believes Mrs. R. V. Stowe, the sewing leader, “may inspire the women to form their own Senior Crafts Group.” Mrs. Stowe made the simple, yet pretty, aprons with the help of an aunt who loves to sew, adds Thelma McVea, home economics exten sion agent.

Here’s An Affordable “Steak” You Can Grill Outdoors Mi. $$S You can serve satisfying meat to family and guests at jower cost when you grill Salisbury Steaks, long a favorite in restaurants. It’s more special than hamburger, yet the meat costs no more. Here the steaks are adapted for out door cookery with the characteristic savory vegetables, herbs, and the secret touch of blending Ac’cent with the meat. This natural product brings out the true, beefy flavor in a way that makes the most of the meat you buy, a tip worth know ing in today’s inflated food market. Salisbury Steaks 2 pounds ground beef tomato 1 can (3 ounces) chopped 1 teaspoon salt mushrooms, drained 1 teaspoon Ac’cent % cup chopped onion Va teaspoon pepper ' V4 cup chopped peeled % teaspoon dried leaf thyme In large bowl lightly mix all ingredients. Shape into 6 or 8 patties. Place on grill when coals have reached the light gray ash stage. Cook 5 minutes, turn and cook 3 minutes longer, or to desired degree of doneness. YIELD: 6 to 8 servings. Homemaker's Hints Rolled Oats Rolled oats are a good choice for the food shopper who wants to combine nutrition with econ omy, observes Mrs.. Ruby Uzzle, extension consumer marketing economist. North Carolina State University. Rolled oats are an energy food that can be used in pancakes or as a hot cereal. In main dishes, they are a welcome addition to meat loaf and meat balls. And, they give extra fla vor to breads, pies, cookies and cakes. Short Cut With some cuts of pork, such as spareribs, you may wish to partially precook the meat in doors before you take it out to the grill. If you do some pre cooking inside, the barbecuing process won’t take so long. Easy Care The non-stick finishes on elec tric waffle bakers and grills should delight the homemaker who looks at appliances with an eye to easy use and care. The secret to keeping the non-stick surfaces functional is regular cleaning. If the grids are im mersible, they should be wash ed in hot sudsy water after each use. If not immersible, wipe them with a sudsy sponge, rinse and dry each use. Steel wool or Wire brushes should not be used, as they may scratch the non-stick surface. ■ - I have looked and marveled At a rainbow in the sky, I think God surely painted A path to heaven on high. Priceless colors came in sight Each tint and tone was so true. But this beauty went away And the sky was again blue. But oh, I remember This bit of Heaven God sent. The beauty stayed with me As on my way I went. —Neva Taylor Harrington —— The dictionary says that a rainbow is “a bow or arc of prismatic colors appearing in the heavens opposite the sun, due to the refraction and reflec tion of the sun’s rays in drops of rain, spray or mist.” To me, a rainbow is just an other one of God’s miracles and great gifts to be seen and en joyed to the fullest. I am al ways looking for beauty—and I find it! And enjoy it! Gardening: 1 will begin by answering questions. A new gardener wants to know how to care for geraniums. Geraniums like their roots kept cool and moist, but never wet. Feed only when the soil is moist, and follow the directions on the plant food package. Plants indoors should be fed about once a month. Those out doors should be fed every two weeks. Geraniums are tops for any sunny location outdoors. Re quiring only good drainage, regular feeding and watering. Another question: Can daffo dils be dug and planted now? Yes indeed. It is an ideal time to dig and replant. Add com — - - " - ■ post and sldw-acting bonemeal to the new planting areas. No “available” fertilizer should be used at this time. Daffodils should be fed twice yearly. Just as they peep through the ground in spring, and again as they finish flowering. A question about mulches, what kind to use, etc. There are two kinds. (1) Organic: Made of plant tissues that will break down. You can use them first as a surface mulch, and later work them into the bed to im prove the soil. These mulches include peat chunks, bean and seed hulls, tobacco stems, bark products, and the leaes and needles from trees. (I especial ly love to use oak leaves and pine needles.) (2) Inorganic mulches are made of minerals that will not break down. Some of these are marble chips, vermiculite, peb bles, washed river rock, crush ed rock and volcanic rock. Mulches are great work sav ers. Not only do mulched beds look neater, but the mulch Story time At Library STORY TIME at the library tor pre school children every Tuesday morning at 10:30.
