T Doctor in the Kitchen* by Laurence M. Hureh, M.D. Consultant, National Dairy Council. DOLLAR STRETCHERS FOR OLDSTERS Today I want to talk about how people can stretch their food dol lars. Especially older people who probably have to watch pretty closely how to, nuke ends meet. There are never too many ideas for making food appetizing and, at the same time, nutritious and economical. So here are some you might consider: Serve macaroni and cheese as your main dish, but add, hits of leftover green vegetables, or meat, or hard-cooked egg to the mixture. Or make a cheese sauce or a cream sauce for leftover meat and vegetables and then serve this over toast or rice. Sound good? Here are some more ideas: • Less Expensive Heat Buy less expensive cuts of meat Then cook them slowly, using some liquid as you would with a pot roast. They’ll come out delicious and tender. If you like liver, beef, lamb, or pork liver are less expensive than cal ves' liver. Brown shell eggs, if available, may be less expensive than white shell eggs, but they have the same nutritive value. Dried peas and beans are in expensive and nutritious. Use them in casserole dishes with tomatoes and ground beef or Q©ARDEN TIME By M. E. GARDNER, N. C. State University Every now and then we get an unusual request for informa tion. This time it was about Purslane. A lady reader sent me a plant for identification. Then she wanted to know whether or not the plant, or plant parts, were edible. Seme of my readers will rec ognize Purslane (sometimes call ed Pussley) as a persistent weed pest in the home vegetable gar den. It is reported that the plant probably originated in western Asia but is now widespread in many parts of the world.

Ground beef Is your all-purpose friend — for meat loaf, patties, meat balls and in meat sauce over spaghetti. Serve creamed dried beef over boiled or baked potatoes — or mix It with rice. The cream sauce win enhance the rice, too. in Season Foods Buy fresh fruits and vegetables in season if they are less expen sive than frozen or canned. Ocas sionally, use tomato juice instead of orange juice. : All of your leftover vegetables juices will help add flavor and v nourishment to soups. Leftover juices from canned fruits go well in gelatins and-fruit sauces for cake or ice cream. Slightly stale bread will be re freshed by toasting. So will left, over biscuits or rolls if you but ter them or sprinkle them with cheese and then brown them un der,the broiler. Older people should not forget mflir, the original convenience food. Just pour it and it’s ready to drink. At least two glasses a day are a good idea. Also, get at least 2 moderate servings of meat each day, 4 servings of fruits and vegetables, and 4 serv ing of breads and cereals. That’s the four food group plan, a plan that will keep you healthy. because the larvae are protected “ifr. the ' mines. Foliage sprays, however; are effective if applied as soon as new growth is initiated in the spring. To kill the larvae in the mines at this season of the year, it is necessary to use a systemicpois on such as Cygon. We use Cygon as recommended by the manu facturer. It is necessary to thoroughly wet the foliage and stems of the The botanical name of Pur slane is Portulaca oleracea. Portulaca grandiflora is a pop ular dwarf annual flower and is a member of the Purslane fam ily. While most people consider Purslane as, a weed to be rid of, others may want to plant seed and use the leaves much afe you would the pot herbs for cook ing; or in salads. If you want to try this plant, use the variety Sativa (Portulaca olearacea sati va). This is a variety of the com mon Purslane best suited for culinary use. Remember, too, that it does best in sunny loca tions in well drained soils. While visiting a friend the other day, I discovered the heaviest infestation of leaf min es on boxwood .leaves that I have ever seen. The leaves were peppered with small specks top side and tiny brown slightly rais ed areas on the undersides; Upon examination, we found tiny larvae (worms) in the mines. At. tins’ Stage of the life of the ihsect, foliage sprays, such as lindane ,<jr.wDT are ineffective Baits Help Control Farm Fly Problem Poison baits will control house flys in around farm buildings but only if used in conjunction with good sanitation and' man ure management practices. North Carolina State Univer sity extenjiion entomologists point out that baits are normal ly used with other treatments such as surface sprays for max imum control. Vi The two basic types of poison baits for house fly control around poultry, dairy and other livestock facilities are dry .baits and liquid baits. The fly baits consist of a small quantity of a toxicant, usually of the phosphate insecticide type, plus a carrier which is attrac tive to adult flies. Granulated sugar,is a common.dry carrier while water sweetened with sug ar, honey or molasses is freq uently used in liquid baits. Some special “home recipe” baits successfully utilize ferm ented materials like beer to at tract adult flies, but these are not widely used. There are a variety of com mercially prepared dry baits available. Some popular and ef fective materials used in these baits are dichlorvos, malathion and trichlorfon. The NCSU specialists suggest using dichlorvos or trichlorfon when local fly populations show resistance to such chemicals as malathion and ronnel. On poultry farms, trichlorfon is cleared for use only with cag ed bird operations. The commercially prepared baits are often preferred by farmers because of the conven ience they offer.
