Add onion and green pepper to the tomato sauce, season to taste, and :ording to this tested receipt, which was given me by a friend who is an| excellent cook: Invade Omaha’s Markets Now is the time when the house- ) wives who are skilled in domestic | economy are buying Tokay grapes, | those big, solid, sweet, pinkish, pur- | plish beauties that come in big bunch- es from California, Never have the luscious fruits of the vine been more plentiful or better than right now. And they're cheap, oh, so cheap. Six- pound baskets for 40 or 50 cents! If you had to pay 50 cents a pound for them you might appreciate them more, but get "em now and eat what you can and can what you can't. These “honey dew melons” aren’t as frail and delicate as their fairy- like name might seem to indicate They've been hanging around in the Omaha markets now for some two months or so and they seem to be bigger and luscious-er than ever, Half a buck or so apiece. (“Buck.” madam, is stag language for dollar)."| Apples are nice. Nebraska Jona- thans of sound and speckless beauty sell for the small sum of 35 to 45 cents a peck. Here are “Siberian crab apples,” not from Siberia, but called by that name anyway. They're 4 large crab apple at six bits; that is, 75 cents the peck. If you want the northwest Pacific coast variety that comes in paper packed boxes you can get the “Spokane beauty,” for in- stance, at $2 a box. Greenings and also on hand. Alligator pears, splendid to put in salads, are around 35 cents each. Kei- fer pears come at 50 cents or so a peck, Bartlett pears are also still with us, Big black plums and little Damson plums and big Elberta peaches and smaller peaches from Colorado are among the fruits. The war doesn't seem to have inter- fered with the fig industry of the near east. The figs of various kinds are here and so are the dates. Eng- lish walnuts, also, are here in abun- dance from California. The new crop of grapefruit, a bit green yet, but smooth and nice, has begun to ap- pear.
