Gary. chairman Of the United States
steel Corporation, informed the stock
holders at the annual meeting in Ho-
boken today that the corporation
was holding down the prices of it's

why. in view Of the great demand,

ceived by other manufacturers, the
prices Of the corporations products

board and steel manufacturers on
March Fl. 1919, he said:

BETTER COFFEE WEEK
Consumers Are to Be Taught to Get
Better Vaues from their Coffee


Better Vaues from their Coffee
Every grocer in the city has been
urged to qualify as a coffee expert SO
that during "Coffee Week" he con
help his customers not only choose
the brand of coffee they like best but
prepare it in the most approved way.
The date of Coffee Week is March
29th to April 3rd. It has been ar
ranged by committee representing
the entire wholesale coffee trade of
the United States, with the idea that
housewives will take advantage of
the opportunity to have heart to
heart talk with their grocers on the
subject of "Better Coffee"
The consumption of coffee in the
United States has gained enormously
during the past year. Estimates put
the increase as high as twenty-five
per cent. One statistician has figured
out, that, based on the records of the
New York coffee exchange, the people
of the United States drank 5000, 00O,-
900 more cups of coffee in the last six

HINTS TO HOUSEWIVES

Try cooking the breakfast eggs
longer and at lower temperature.
They are not only more delicious but
much more digestible.
A green salad adds much to the
breakfast menu. Lettuce, romaine
and endive are splendid spring sal
ads.

OUSEHOLD
TALKS

Breakfast usually presents problems
which are not concerned with any
other meal, and which often result in
scantiness of food or indigestible COM
binations, neither of which is neces-
sary. A few general rules, easily
followed, will enable the housewife to
"start the day right" for all members
of the family. Acid fruit, such as
oranges or grapefruit, should never
be served with cereal and cream, and
as cereal is both nourishing and salts
flying for old and young, it is usually
much better to serve the milder fruits
in the morning. Canned peaches,
prunes or plums, stewed figs, dates or
raisins combine well with cereal, and
by adding tomato sauce to an omelet
or cooking bacon or dried beef with
eggs the heavier part of the meal has
a marked flavor.
Fish for breakfast demands an acid
in either fruit or an accompanying
sauce. in this case cereal muffin
may take the place of cooked cereal.
Vegetables have definite place in
the breakfast menu and should not be
neglected, especially in the spring.
There are several which combine well
with eggs and in omelets.
