CHUCK STEAK
 IS GOOD EATING
 AND COSTSLESS

Washington, April 2.---"Those per sons interested in the economies of the campaign to Save Money on Meat by utilization of the less costly cuts, particularly those of the fore quarter, should note the following ex- cerpts from a statement on the sub ject by the Bureau of Markets, United States Department of Agriculture:
 If people in general could realize the value of meat from the forequar- ter as compared with that from the hindquarter and would use more of it, prices of meat as whole would be greatly reduced and would be more stable.
 People should eat more forequar- ter meats and reduce prices of living Any of the forequarter meat is good for making meat loaves or Liberty steak, while in some markets, steaks are curt from the rib and sell as short cut steaks
 ''In the same statement, the Bureau of Markets has said:
 6 Because of it's reputation as the choicest cIrh the people ask for DOT terh ouse steak, whereas if they would try chuck steak, the chances are it would prove to be satisfactory and it would cost much less. The reputation of porterhouse steak with the conse- quent large demand for it, coupled with the fact that this cut forms only a very small per cent of the carcass, causes it to sell at a higher price than any other cut.

| The mile track at the Alabama State Faid was practically rebuilt Thursday and. with the application today of cal cium chloride and heavy sprinkling, the course will be ready for the series of auto races which will bring the annual show 10 it's climax tomorrow afternoon.
 With the assistance of tractors and road graders the surface of the oval was changed from a rough. unsuitable 1 course into what at least three of the race drivers, who helped in~the work
 on the track, believe to be the fastest
 track ever raced over in the south.
 And to show his appreciation of the
 interest being taken by the professional
 drivers for the first time in the his
 tory of motor racing at the Alabama
 State Fair, President R. A. Brown an-
 nounced that he would hang up a solid
 gold medal to be awarded the driver

 or during time trial or exhibition. Texas George Clark, one of the speed
 men who helped in the work of re- building the course, was very enthus- |, iastic over the prospects of driving a fast mile in his Briscoe and went so far as to ask permission to drive an exhibition this afternoon, to show the public what they might anticipate on Saturday

 In the course of the game fourteen nice, new, white balls were fouled into grandstands-and remained there. At
