The Council, in its recently published statistical yearbook, "Accident Facts," reports that the number of deaths per 100 million passenger miles was 1.3 on the turnpikes, 2.3 on other highways and roads. A total of 270 deaths to auto passengers and drivers occurred on turnpikes in 1958. More than 24,000 such deaths occurred in cars and taxis elsewhere. Homemaking Tips The summer supply of fresh vegetables for tossed salads challenges the imaginative cook to create new and different salad dressings. Here are the basic rules for creating "personalised" recipes which come from home economists at the University of Illinois. A good French dressing base is two parts oil and one part acid. The oil may be olive, cottonseed. corn, peanut or soybean. Oil gives the first taste variation, since each oil has a different flavor. You may even use a combination of oils to get an entirely different flavor. Vinegar is the most common acid ingredient. Vinegars vary in flavor just as oils do. You can either buy different vinegars or make your own variations by adding herbs to plain vinegar. Lemon juice or other citric fruit juices may be used as the acid to make the basic dressing. Here are some tips for making herb vinegars. All should stand for 10 days and then be strained and stored covered. « Heat one pint of vinegar to boiling, and pour over one of the following: Dried herbs: % teaspoon of rosemary, basil, tarragon or dill seed. Fresh herbs: 2 tablespoons of rosemary, sage or sorrel; Vs cup of chopped mint leaves or chives; 1 head of dill seed; or 1 clove of garlic slashed. For mixed spice herb vinegar, add % teaspoon clove buds,* teaspoon peppercorn, 1 stick cinnamon and 1 small clove garlic to 1 quart clear vinegar. Follow the above-described procedure. ,Of course, after you've made the basic dressing from oil and acid, it's easy to create other unusual, flavors by adding spices and herbs, such as thyme, dry mustard, paprika, peppers, rosmary, sage, sorrel: celery salt and the seeds--celery, poppy and dill--to the finished dressing. One doesn't have to live alone to feel lonesome.
