The pods are excellent dried and\ canned and as these may be nl>- “ tained tn every large market, its use Is not confined to any season. T'fie \ principal use o f okra la ln soups naid ln various dishes In which iaents form nn Important part. The young p-ods impart an excellent flavor, besides jivin g a pleasant mucilaginous consistency. No capper, brass, or Iron cooking vessel sihould be employed in prepaid Ing okra, as the metal will be ab sorbed and the pods discolored, or even rendered poisonous, warns the United Stn tea Department of Agricul ture. T3ie cooking should be done ln enameled, porcelain, or earthenware ■utensils. Try these recipes: Baked Okra. Place a thin layer of rice In a bak ing dish, add a layer of sliced okra, then a tuyer of tom a toes; add Balt, papper, a little curry powder, and a small lump of batter. Repeat with al ternate layers of rice, okra and to matoes until the dish ls filled. Cover and bake In the oven until the rice la thoroughBy cooked. Regaove cover and’ brown on top. Serve ln the bak ing dish. The rice should be washed ^in cold water before using, and tbe okra pods and tomatoes washed and sliced rattier thinly.

Cut the ham into small squared or dice and chop the onlua and the parsley or thyme. Wnsli and stem the okra and slice Into thin layers of one-half Inch each. Put tlie lard and butter Into the soup kettle, and* when hot add the chicken and the ham. Cover nnd let It simmer for about lutrs. Then hi® the chopped puirsley, nnd tomatoes, stirring Sequently to prevent scorching. Then ndtl the okra, and -when well browned add the juice of the tomatoes, which Imparts u superior flavor. The okra ls dellejite and may scorch if not stirred frequently. For this reason many fYoole cooks fry thf 1 okra pods jppurateiy in a frying pun, seasoning witli the pepper, cayenne, and salt, nnd then add them to the chicken.

B- *rh these liquids, however, are very In flammable nnd are not to be osed in a room where tJure ls an open flame of any kind ; also, they should h* kept In a tightly-corked bottle from which a little Is poured onto the cloth ns needed.
