Using Tougher Cuts of Meat.

How many times have we heard our
contemporary home managers bemoan
the fact that there were only four
kinds Of meat animals from which to
chooses This idea of lack Of variety
in fresh meats is all because OF the un-
sound and uninteresting habit Of buy
ing the same cuts over and over again.
There are. with the skirt steak and

kind of cookery and Offering an oppor-
ttlnity for distinctive seasoning, says
Jean Prescott Adams in the Springfield
Republican. In addition there are even
several different cuts to many of these
IA regular cuts Of meat-there are sew
eral STYLES Of steaks, but how many
have used the delicious flank steak, a
clod steak, skirt steak or a chuck
steak.
We want lower prices on cur tender
meats. but every housewife with =

Of things but have vet to prove that We
do realize that such meat animals have
not been created. For every loin Of

OPPOSITION IN GERMANY.
To Unified German State Bavaria and
Saxony Protest.

Berlin, Jan. 26.--The suggestion orig
mating in the Prussian Diet that the
national government sound the senti-
ments of the federated states on the
question of creating a unified German
state has aroused opposition in Baya-
ria and Saxony. The proposal was in
troduced by the coalition bloc of the
Prlissian Diet.
The press dispatch from Munich says
the majority of the Bavarian people
are unalterably opposed to any scheme
that tends TO obliterate the time hon
ored prerogative Of the state.
In general debate on the issue in
the Bavarian Diet, the parties, with the
exception of the majorities and the in
dependents, opposed the scheme. The
Ultra left radicals, however, declared
that they Internationally favored it
and requested the Bavarisn govern
ment to direct their efforts in that di-
rection.
The Ssxony ministry president, Herr
Gradneuer, expressed the belief that
the present moment is not the time for
the execution of plan which purposes
to wipe out the political frontiers of
the federated states. He said he be-
Iieved that the Berlin official quarters
we're inadequately posted in respect
TO the South German opposition to
the hasty Capitalization of all author
ity in Berlin and that such disincli-
nation would serve as a check to the
aspirations of Berlin.

SCHOOL OF NATURALIZATION.
Is Being Conducted By British Coal
Miners.

London, Jan. Ga British coal min
ers are entering upon nation.w wide
campaign to educate the public in
the school of naturalization They
are backed by the entire trade union
movement. An attempt will be made
to show that state ownership and co.
operative management of mines would
benefit the miner, the consumer and
the public treasury
This propaganda is to be developed
with such intensity as to force the gov
eminent 70 give definite yes or no"
answer to the question. Then it will
depend upon the tenacity with which
the two sides stand by their guns as TO
whether a general eleation will be
fought out with naturalization as the
issue.
Aside from the dispute between rail
way men and the government wages,
prospects OF Industrial peace in Great
Britain are regarded by the govern.

Trade with the World.

American business men should be
alive to the new possibilities of world
trade which have opened up since the
signing OF the armistice, and especially
to the enterprise which is being shown
by some of the larger countries of Eu-
rope in yenturing out for markets lit
orally to the ends of the earth. Take
for example the remarkable undertak
ing which has Just been launched by
Great Britain through her department
of overseas trade under the lead of Sir
Hamar. Greenwood That organization
aims to offset what il calls 'the fetish
OF German cheapness, to compete more
efficiently with the Germans in the
matter Of advertising, and, while meet
ing home needs, TO respond adequately
to the demands which improved stand
ards of living are bringing in from
every country in the world. even from
the untold millions of the Oriental and
African peoples.
For the realization of these aims the
department has planned a series of
travelling exhibitions for publicity pur-
poses, each to be in charge of one of its
officers. and to be accompanied by sales
representatives of the participating
firms; the countries visited will include
the United States. Canada, South
America, Australia. New Zealand, In.
dia, China and the Far East. Another
feature Of the enterprise is a system
of show rooms TO be established in va
rious parts Of continental Europe, one
set Of them permanently located, the
other to form portable stores, well pro-
vided with display windows, which can
be moved from place to place. A third
item in the program is the admiralty's
allotment of five or six berths on each
foreign bound warship to business men
or their representatives under an ar
which will require such pas
sengers TO pay only for their food; so
many have taken advantage of this
that there is already a
waiting list
Meanwhile the department is CON
tinuing its promotion of fairs designed
TO bring together the British manufac
turer and the foreign buyer. The work
in this field began in 1915. and the get
together gatherings have been held an
nually ever since with increasing sue
cess. Even at the first fair foreign |
buyers were waiting for the opening of
the doors, and within half an hour or
iers had been placed for thousands of
pounds, one firm alone opening 500 new
accounts, of which 200 were with over
sea firms" At the recent fair in Lon |
don orders to the amount of Sl2,500,0o0 |
we're taken, and this year the depart
ment expects to see that yield trebled. |

Old Laws and New Ships.

The acumen and energy of our legis-
ators will surely see TO 1t that, among
me great maritime nations, the United
States can never again be pointed out
rs the only one giving no body or in

maritime casualties. Yet that is the
