MARKETING AND
 MENU BUILDING.

The following paper was read by a mem- ber of the Mothers Union at a recent meeting:
 Experience Is a dear teacher but her school Is the only one in which a practi- cal working knowledge of values and prices of food stuffs can be had.
 An conscientious and energetic house keeper will personally select the food upon which her family subsists, unless she is fortunate enough to have an ac- commodating husband who will do it for her.
 For the unfortunates who are obliged to bear the responsibility for the tough ness of the steaks, have tried to gather a little helpful information regarding the qualities and cuts of various meats. Beef should be of fine grain and good clear color, with firm yellowish white fat. The hindquarter is divided into leg, loin and flank. The sirloin runs from the ribs to the hip or pin-bone. the trump extends from the pin-bone to the socket. The fore-Quarter is made up of ribs, shoulder, plate, brisket, chuck-ribs, neck and shin.
 In purchasing steak for small family always select a '"T'' bone or porter house. and have it cut thick If you wish it to retain its natural juices when cook ed Round steak is nutritious and Is the hest part of the beef to chop for a Ham, burg roast or steak. Flank steak is very good and is economical, having no bone. For a large, handsome steak to be larded and served to please the eSthetic sense. select a thick tenderloin.
 The first cut of the ribs makes the best

 or five pounds is as little as can be used | to obtain good results. l A fat, juicy piece of brisket makes a very good pot roast and Is inexpensive and just as nutritious as the higher priced 1 cuts. It is also excellent for soup. stew
 and made dishes.
 | Never buy very young veal. It is not
 only unwholesome, but dangerous. Very l young veal has small tender bones and l the flesh Is nearly colorless with a bluish
 tinge and a soft, fiabby appearance. l When old enough for use the flesh is firm 1 with a clear, pinkish color and the bones are hard. Veal knuckle and neck is used | for soup and stews; the loin, breast. etc., | for roasts. The loin also supplies chops,
 outlets are taken from the leg.
 Mutton ranks with beef, being one of the best red meats. It should be bright
 red color with plenty of firm white fat and not too old.
 As in veal the fore-quarter is divided
 into shoulder. breast and neck, and the hind-quarter into leg and loin. The leg. shoulder and loin make fine roasts; the loin is cut into chops and the breast and
