Rosemary will not winter well in Pennsylvania and must
be taken indoors during the coldest months but the at
traction of fragrance and visual beauty outweigh the
problems,” remarks Mrs. Landis.
Although some herbs can thrive on poor soil conditions,
Mrs. Landis says they should, for the most part, have good
soil with proper drainage and plenty of sun. The plants
may be started from seed or purchased ready to tran
splant from garden centers. Many such as mint, dill, and
fennel are hardy perennials which will winter well and
reappear in the spring to continue another year's growth.
A number of magazines and books are available from
state and national garden societies and bookstores
providing herb garden cultivation information. Very
recently many cookbooks have come on the market
containing recipes for using fresh and dried herbs.
Several delicious recipes follow, which use common foods
for their base. They may whet your appetite and urge you
to dig up a spot in the garden to plant an herb for your own
use.
Cook the potatoes in their jackets and then peel very
quickly. Roll them in a pan in which butter and caraway
seeds have been simmering for about five minutes.
Asparagus and Chive Butter

bottom woody part of the stalks. Steam over hot water for
about 20 minutes, or until a fork goes easily into the
thickest stem. Remove to a hot plate and serve with
melted butter to which has been added one teaspoon
lemon juice and a large tablespoon of finely chopped
