How to LowerY Your Meat Bills
Hints From the Department Of
Justice
Justice

encourage purchasing the cheaper
lamb cuts instead of merely few
chops at a time. A shoulder of lamb,
being smaller than the average beef
joint and less expensive, should ap-
peal especially to small families.
The marketing expeditions should
be an education in economy.
It usually pays to shop before you
buy.
1t usually pays to do your marketing
personally rather than telephone your
order.
Lamb steaks and lamb chops take
but a few moments to cook, but they
are the most expensive cuts. AS a
lamb is not all chops and steaks, other
and less expensive parts of the animal
must be used and can be made into
tasty dishes. Breast of lamb con-
tains more meat than bone, yet it often
sells for half the price of pork spare
ribs, and some retailers on account Of
a limited demand for the fore-quarter
cuts find it necessary to convert these
cheaper cuts into sausage in order to
sell them at all.
Lamb is somewhat seaSonable
meat, by far the greater part of live
lambs reaching the market during the
latter half of the year. In the spring
around Easter time, lamb may be as
high or higher than other meats. In
the fall and early winter it is nearly
always much cheaper.
The following average prices COM
piled by the National Wool Growers
association from representative re-
tailers throughout the country show
comparative levels of the different
meats in the fall season as they oc-
Cured in the middle of October, 1919.
These figures are not applicable now,
except that they emphasize a typical
relationship:
Lamb-Leg, 81 cents; loin, A cents :;
shoulder, q cents; rib chops, 461h
cents.
Sheep-Leg, 20 cents loin, % cents :;
shoulder, 161a cents; chops, 35 cents.
Pork-Loin, 43 cents; fresh ham, 35
cents.
Beef-Sirloin, As cents; porter
house, 49, cents; tenderloin, so cents;
round steak, SO cents.
These prices were for the best-qual-
ity meats in all cases.

jured while at work at Caspian, Mich,
by Herman Holmes, 'lumberman, and

HOUSEWIVES BUY LAMB AND
MUTTON UNWISELY. I,

The Eat More Lamb campaign which
country at the present time before col
leges, domestic science schools, wom-
sens clubs various institutions, public
schools, meat markets, etc., has
brought before the general public the
value Of lamb as a food product, but
especially has it demonstrated the
value and economy Of the cheaper cuts
of lamb which have been neglected. 1t
has been a contention of the retailer
for years that great part of the
fore Quarter-the neck, shoulder,
shank and breast-must be sold at a
aoss or eventually reach the scrap or
bone box.
Some retail butchers bone out these
cheap fore-quarter cuts, put them
through the meat grinder, season them
and mold them up into lamb patties,
putting a strip Of bacon around each
one, leave them in the cooler over
night and sell all of them next day at
good prices. Many butchers could sell
more than they can supply. The butch
er has thus turned into an asset or
profitmaker that portion which has
heretofore been considered loss.
Steaks and roasts can be had from
the shoulder lamb rolls from the neck,
breast and shoulder, and neck slices
are obtained by cutting the neck in
sections crosswise, so that the meat has
the appearance of chops and is very
inviting dish when used as stew or
potted lamb en- casserole. The cheap
er cuts of lamb are made from the
breast, shoulder, shank and neck
which combined are about Is per cent
of the lamb.
Lamb is a healthful food for all peO-
ple. It is very nutritious, wholesome
and palatable and in calOric value it is
Equal or superior to any other meat.
The boned and rolled shoulder men,
fioned above is used for roasting pur-
poses; it can also be cut to any de-
sired weight or can be sliced into
Saratoga chops.
United States government statistics
tell us that each year the average
housewife buys for every person in
her household only about pounds Of
lamb as compared with about II
pounds of pork and 81 pounds of beef.
lIf all American families used lamb
lone day a week it would mean more
than 20 pounds of lamb annually per
capita, or four times the present con-
sumption.
More than that, the head of the fam
lilly who maya the bills. would no doubt
