Know the Grades and Buy

Determine Whether She Is Getting Quality
Desired

When the retail meat dealer buys
from the wholesaler, he does not de-
pend altogether on the wholesale
firms honesty and good faith to Sc
cure the grade of meat he wants for
his trade Instead, keeping in mind
certain points and characteristics
which determine grades of beef, the
retailer, before he buys and pays for
it, decides for himself whether he
has been given what he ordered.
The housekeeper should be quite
as familiar rs the butcher with the
various grades OF beef. Few house
keepers, however. have this knowl-
edge. Even those women who pride
themselves that cotton mixed" is
not sold them for linen, buy beef.
week after week, year after year, and
depend altogether on their butchers
honesty.
Not until it is cooked and served
do they know whether they have
been given the choice" meat they
asked and paid the price for, or only
that of medium" or common"
quality. Linen buying is only occa-
sional, but meat buying is daily. and
every woman should be familiar with
the different grades of meat To.
ward this end the bureau of markets,
United States department of agricul-
ture. has defined the four grades of
beef.
The Choice grade of beef de-
notes the best quality usually found
in the markets. Only limited
amount of what is known as prime"
beef is offered in most markets. This
grade is usually offered in limited
quantities during the Christmas or
holiday seasons. and Immediately
following live stock shows. Choice"
beef has moderately even covering
of fat on the outer surfaces. This
fat is smooth in appearance and
white in color, but is not in Excess
sive amounts. The color of the lean
meat is light red. with traces of fat
distributed through the lean on all
cuts. which are taken from the loins,
ribs, and some parts of the round
Choice meat is firm to the touch and
of fine grain. There must be no
watery appearance on the freshly cut
surfaces
The good" grade of beef is next
in quality to ''choice" and may differ
slightly in all points or correspond
| in some points to "choice" and differ
materially in others. The covering
of fat is not so smooth and uniform,
! but must be white in color and dry
in appearance. The color of the lean
meat in this grade also varies slight
ly and may be of darker hue than
the "chOice" grade, but it is not dark.
Good" beef is of smooth grain and
has traces of fat, which is white or
creamy in color, distributed through
the lean.
The bulk of the beef offered for
sale in most markets is of medium
grade. In this there is usually very
little and often no covering of out.
