TO PREPARE ROAST BREAST OF LAMB

Make a pocket in the breast by cut
ting through the flesh close to the
ribs. Sprinkle the inside of the pock-
ct with salt and pepper, pile in light
~ the hot forcemeat, made according
to the directions below, and sew the
edges together. Rub the outside with
salt, pepper and -four. Lay the
stuffed breast, ribs down. on rack
in an open roasting pan. Do not add
water. Place the roast in hot oven
(4S0 degrees Fahrenheit) and scar
for thirty minutes. If there is not
sufficient fat to keep the meat from
drying out, basic with melted fat, or
lay strip or two of bacon on top.
After soaring, reduce the oven tenn
perature rapidly to 800 degrees
Fahrenheit and continue the cooking
in the open pan until the meat Is
tender. The total time required will
probably be one and one-half to one
and three-fourths hours. If there is
more stuffing than the breast will
hold, bake it in separate dish. or
use 1t as stuffing for onions to serve
with the meat. Serve with brown
gravy made from the drippings.
For the baked onions, choose
large. mild-flavored variety. Cut the
onions in half crosswise and simmer
in lightly sailed water until about
half DONE Lift the onions out and
arrange on baking dish. Remove
the centers without disturbing the
outer layers. Chop the onion centers
and add to the forcemeat stuffing.

oven for about one-half hour, or I'm,
til the onions are tender.

Radio Keeps Milk Sweet

A method of keeping milk sweet by
wireless has been discovered by sci
enlist of Vienna, Austria. According
to reports, the fluid so treated is kept
from turning sour for four days, and
for two or three weeks if it is cooled.
A special generator is fitted to a pas
teurizing outfit, or two cylinders are
employed, the milk being heated
slightly in one and subjected to the
radio waves in the other.

the lamb:
Select a breast of lamb, including

make the forcemeat stuffing. Have
the butcher crack the bones of the
breast so that it can be carved be-
tween the ribs. Wipe the meat with
a damp cloth, remove the fOreshank,

Chicken Paralysis

There seems to be quite general
complaint of birds losing the use of
their legs. 1t seems prevalent all over
the country No specific or successful
treatment is offered. 1t might be
caused by worms, so it is a good plan
to give a good dose of worm medicine.
If it is not worms it can do no harm.
Place the bird in dry, comfortable
quarters and give a dose of worm
medicine or Epson salts, or both.
Feed easily digested feeds and it gen.

TOTAL BUILDING
EXPENDITURES Up
Increase of | Per Cent First
Cain Over Like PERIOD Since
First Half of 1925.

An increase of l pep cent was shown
In the amount spent for new buildings
for which permits were issued during
the first half of 1923, as compared with
the first half of 1927, in 80 cities having
a population of 100000 or over. This is
the first time an increase over the cor
responding period of the previous year
has been shown since the first half of
1925. it is reported by the Bureau Of
Labor Statistics.
The amount spent for residential
buildings in these so cities increased 6.5
per cent, while the amount spent Tor
non-residential buildings decreased 8.3
per cent during the first half of 1928, as
compared with the first half of 1927.
The greatest increase in expenditure
was for hotels. The amount spent for
this class of building increased I'LL per
cent
In 1922 one-family dwellings were the
leading type of dwellings built. They
provided for 43.4 per cent of the total
number of families accommodated, COM
pared with 34.6 per cent in apartment
houses and 22.0 per cent in two-family
dwellings. BY the first half of 1926,
however, apartment houses had become
the most popular class of new dwellings
in the large cities of the country. In
the first half of that year 50.4 per cent
of the family units were in multi-family
dwellings and only 36.1 per cent in the
single-family dwellings. During the
first half of 1927 the preponderance of
families provided for in apartment
houses was further accentuated. and
during the first half of 1923 the per-
centage of families housed in this class
of dwelling had risen to 61.2, while
those provided for in one-family dwell
ings had decreased to $50 per cent.
Two-family dwellings provided for only
10.6 per cent of the new homes during
this period.
Of the IS cities in the country which
have population of 100000 or over, the
Census Bureau estimated the population
for rs as of July 1, 1928. The popula-
ton for two other cities was obtained
by using the State census figures for
1925. The Census Bureau did not eSti-
mate the population for the remaining
seven cities because of abnormal condi-
tons.
