Cheese adds extra flavor to soup
SYRACUSE, N.Y. If you’re pursuaded there’s
nothing like soup to cure any number of ills, then cheese
soup made with chicken stock is your dish. Even if you are
not, soup is still a flavorful, nutritious and filling food.
Cheese, of course, contains the nutrients of milk in
concentrated form. Thus, creamy soups like Cheese-
Chicken and Swiss-Onion have extra protein and vitamins
because they’re made with both cheese and milk. For a
hearty lunch or supper, either of these has the satiety
value for a main dish.
In the case of both soups, vegetables are sauteed until
tender, then four is added for a rouz to which is added the
chicken or beef broth. After this has thickened slightly,
milk is stirred into the mixture.
Cheese-Chicken Soup has cheese in the soup as well as
atop for the garnish. Swiss Onion Soup has the traditional
French bread, toasted and buttered with cheese sprinkled
on top.
Canned soup is used as a convenience for both soups, but
if you have your own chicken or beef broth made in ad
vance and frozen, do, of course, substitute that.
These delicious, easy to make soups were tested in the
kitchens of United Dairy Industry Association and
brought to you by the American Dairy Association and
Dairy Council of Syracuse, N.Y.
CHEESE-CHICKEN SOUP
V« cup butter
% cup finely chopped celery
Vz cup thinly sliced carrot
Vt cup chopped onion
V* cup all-purpose flour
1 can (10 Vi oz.) condensed chicken broth
3 cups milk
2 cups (8 oz.) shredded Cheddar cheese
Grow vegetable plants from seed
FLEMINGTON, N.J. -
There is a great deal of
satisfaction in growing your
own plants from seed.
Althrough some gardeners
can produce quality plants at
home, most home gardeners
are not successful.
Gardeners who try to grow
their own vegetable tran
splants usually have three
strikes against them from
the start, namely light,
humidity, and temperature.
Light intensity at home is
often too low to grow
healthy, stocky vegetable
plants. Few homes have
windows that receive full
sunlight all day. The sunlight
comes from one direction
causing the plants to become
spindly and lean in the
direction of the sun.
The relative humidity in

most homes is below 20
percent while humidity in
greenhouses is generally
maintained at 30 percent or
higher.
The temperature in most
homes is too high to produce
rugged vegetable plants
even though thermostats are
being turned down during
the energy crisis. This is
especially true for cold
season crops such as lettuce,
broccoli, and cabbage.
There are some things that
can be done to improve
growing conditions at home.
Ardent gardeners often rig
lights over the plants to
supplement the sunlight.
Such lights should be kept a
few inches above the
seedlings to avoid burning.

Chopped parsley
Shredded Cheddar cheese
Melt butter in 2-quart saucepan; add celery, carrot and
onion and saute until tender. Stir in flour; cook 1 minute,
stirring constantly. Gradually stir in broth. Boil and stir 1
minute. Stir in milk. Heat to simmering point, stirring
constantly.
Remove from heat and stir in cheese until melted.
Return to low heat to finish melting cheese, if necessary.
(Do not boil).
Sprinkle each serving with parsley and shredded
cheese.
SWISS-ONION SOUP
V* cup (% stick) butter
7 cups diced onions (about 2 pounds)
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon salt
4 cups beef bouillon
4 cups milk
8 thick slices French bread, buttered, toasted
2 cups (8 oz.) shredded Swiss cheese
Melt butter in 4-quart saucepan; add onions and saute
until tender, about 15 minutes. Stir in flour and salt, cook 1
minute, stirring constantly. Gradually stir in bouillon.
Bring to a boil; reduce heat, cover and aimmw 30 to 40
minutes. Stir in milk. Heat to serving temperature. (Do
not boil).
To serve, ladle soup into ovenproof mugs or bowls. Top
each with 1 slice French bread and Vi cup Swiss cheese.
Place in preheated 325*F. oven 10 minutes or until cheese
melts.
sunlight is to staple
aluminum foil to a piece of
heavy cardboard and stand
it upright behind the
seedlings. This will back
radiate the sun and help
correct the problem of the
seedlings leaning toward the
sun.
A piece of clear plastic
attached to a frame and
placed over the seedlings
will help increase humidity.
The side toward the sun
should be left open for
ventilation. The leaves will
scorch if the tent becomes
too hot. Care should also be
taken to keep the plastic
from touching the plants.
If you decide to start your
own frost-sensitive
vegetable transplants from
seed, DO NOT START
THEM TOO EARLY.

Tomatoes should not be
seeded sooner than 6 to 8
weeks before the last frost in
your area. Peppers and
eggplants require 8 to 10
weeks to produce good
transplants. Frost danger
can vary greatly in a
relatively small area.
After all is said and done,
you’ll probably have a better
garden if your buy your
vegetable plants from a
professional plant grower.
Good transplants should be
bright green with stocky
stems. Fruiting crops such
as tomatoes should not have
any small fruits on them at
the time of purchase.
Whatever you pay for your
plants the cost is very small
compared to the total value
of the food you harvest.
