Minnesota Now Has
Longest Concrete Road

The longest continuous stretch OF
concrete roadway in the world has
just been completed between White
Bear and Duluth, MINI. This pave
ment passes through 20 towns and VII
lagos over Its 137-mie length.
Paving construction on this thor
oughfare, State Trunk Highway No.
1, was begun in 1923. Highway au-
thorities point out that the completed
highway will save great deal of
money through low maintenance costs.
Maintenance costs for gravel surfac-
Ing on this highway have been as
much as $1,000 mile, state highway
records show.
The Minnesota pavement Is two
miles longer than the concrete pave.

FISH CHOWDER is
MOST HEALTHFUL
Supplies Mineral Needed to
Keep Bodies Normal.
prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture.l

ment of Agriculture.)
The need Of variety in our bills-of-
fare still exists, and the sea, as the
saying goes, is as full Of good fish as
ever came out of it" Moreover, fish,
especially the saltwater kinds, both
fresh and canned, are the best known
source of iodine, a mineral that is
needed to keep our bodies normal and
healthy. 1t is lack of iodine, for in
stance, in food and drinking water
that leads to disturbance of the thy
roid gland and one form Of the dis
ease known as goiter. Scientific
workers have discovered that there is
goiter belt through the inland states
where there is deficiency of iodine
In the soil and, consequently, in the
drinking water and the vegetables
grown in the soil, and where the peo-
pie eat small quantities Of fish and
sea food. Therefore, there is a good
health reason behind the fish dinner,
and 1t is well to include one in the
family menu regularly. Fish chow
der is one Of those one-dish dinners
that will appeal to you as house
keeper on days when you want to be
out-ofdoors gardening or indoors get
ting ahead with the summer sewing.
For fish chowder you will need the
following ingredients: One and one
half pounds Of fresh fish. Cod or had
dock is the kind generally preferred
for chowder, but any kind of fresh,
dried, or canned fish will do If 1t has
large flakes Of meat and only a few
bones which can be easily picked out
before the fish Is combined with the
other ingredients. Or If you prefer,
use q quart of CLAIMS or oysters when
In season instead of the fish. In adj
ditiOn to the one and one-half pounds
Of fish, you will need: nine potatoes,
peeled and cut in small pieces; one
onion, sliced; two cupfuls carrots cut
in pieces; one-fourth pound salt park;
three cupfuls milk; pepper. Now for
in small pieces and fry with the
chopped onion for five minutes. Put
pork, onions, carrots, and potatoes in
kettle and cover with boiling water.
Cook until the vegetables are tender.
Add the milk and the fish which has
been removed from the bones and cut
in small pieces. Cook until the fish
is tender, or for about ten minutes.
Chowder can be thickened with flour,
but most people prefer to add crack
ers in imitation Of the fishermen who
always used pilot bread. For this
quantity Of chowder you will need
about eight or nine good-sized crack
ers. Split them so that they will soak
up the liquid evenly and not be soft
on the outside and dry inside, and
add them to the chowder few min
utes before serving.
Plan to have some sort OF crisp
bread with this dinner, such as toast
or toasted crackers. AS chowders or
dinarily include both potatoes and
crackers, no starchy vegetable is
needed. The chowder must be served
in soup dish 80 it will be more con-
venient not to have second vegetable
with 1t but to serve one in the form
Of salad. green pepper and cottage
or cream cheese is easily made.

Breast of Lamb Cooked
With Spinach Stumnp

Among the less expensive cuts of
meat available in most markets is
breast of lamb. Because Of the rib
bones this presents some difficulty
and waste in carving II simply baked
as 1t comes, but If prepared in the
following way, suggested by the bu-
reau of home economics, 1t will be
found delicious and economical:
Simmer breast of lamb in enough
sailed water to cover until tender.
Remove from the broth, slip the bones
out at once, and allow the meat to
cool. Meanwhile prepare the spinach
stuffing. Spread out the breast OF
lamb. cover it with thin layer Of the
stuffing, roll it, and tie at both ends
with clean white string. Place the
rolled meat in baking pan, sprinkle
lightly with flour, pour a cupful OF
the broth around 1t, and brown In
hot oven.
