Squash Is Available Now Ifeose who have not tasted squash might want to try ooe of the many types of winter squash now available at grocery stores and farmers' markets. - adjective "winter" may be confusing since these gshes are planted at the same time as "summer" '"Varieties but winter squash needs a longer growing season. Winter squash is ripe and ready to eat only after the outer shell becomes quite hard. Summer squash, by comparison, has a soft skin which is tender and edible. Win* squash can be storec * v several months if properly "cured". To cure squash, one should place • them in a dry area with a temperature of 80 to 85 degrees F, for 10 days. After this, they can be stored in a cool (50 to 55 degrees F), dry place. Curing helps harden .thgSkin and prevents squash from losing color and becoming stringy. The most common types of winter squash, Acorn, Butternut and Hubbard, are low in calories and fat, but high in vitamin A. Other winter squashes at the market are Turk's Turban and Buttercup.

After cooling, it should be cut in half, the seeds removed and the strands fluffed up with a fork. The result is a spaghetti-type material that can be used as a substitute for pasta.

It can be steamed until tender (10 to 30 minutes depending on size) in a covered pan with one inch of water. It can be served as is or mashed and seasoned with salt and pepper. The mashed pulp can be sub­ stituted for pumpkin in pies or used in soups, casseroles and other dishes. » -Small squashes can be baked whole, like a potato. A .tfcrfie to four pound squash should be tender after baking for one hour at 300 degrees F. After cooking, it should, be cut open and the seeds cleaned out. Squashes can also be baked after they are open and strings and seeds are removed. They can be placed cut side down in one-half inch of water in a baking dish and baked until tender. For a different snack, one may try roasted squash seeds. To prepare, they should be removed but not washed. Two cups of seed should be mixed with one and a half tablespoons of melted butter, margarine or oil and <me and one half teaspoons of salt, then spread in a shallow pan and baked at 290 degrees F. until crisp and BIRTHS ' Mr. and Mrs. Earl Fry of foill Charles street, Rich­ mond, became the parents of their first child, a son, Sept. 6 at Sherman hospital.
