HOUSEWIVES HEAR TALKS
ON MEAT CUTTING

To meet the demands of the consum-

ing small. easily prepared and attractive
cuts of meat which are rapidly making
obsolete many meat merchandising
practices. D. w. Hartzell. of the
National Livestock and Meat Board
spoke to visiting housewives, home
economics students and food authorities
on "Meat Cutting Wizard" November
10. at the annual meeting of the Balti-
more Retail Meat Dealers Association
Of that City.
According to w. E. Hunt. Animal
and Dairy Husbandry Department Of
the University af Maryland. therel has
been an ever increasing demand on the
part of the consumer to know more
abont the various uses Of meat, the
proper selection for quality and econ
omy. and the identification of various
cuts. and it was for the purpose of
furnishing this information that the
meeting was held. The various DEM
onstrauons were made possible
through the cooperation of the National
Livestock and Meat Board, retail meat
dealer associations. meat packers. live.
stock producers. and the University of
Maryland.
This meeting marks a new step in
educating the public to better methods
in food buying. AS Mr.. Hunt points
out "in spite Of the universal use of
meat and the fact that meat purchases
exceed in value any other food item. it
is surprising to note both the lack of
meat information and the amount of
meat misinformation among consumers.

If hard rains do not arrive before

At the present time every state
levies tax against gasoline, ranging
from two to six cents a gallon, and il
is forecast that the total revenue this
year will reach the record sum OF
$3.50, 0OO,0O0. Gasoline is subjected
to the largest sales tax of any COM
modify, with the possible exception
of cigaretts.
However, many legislators are moi
satisfied even with this. Campaigns
are under way in a number of states,
notably Louisiana, West Virginia,
Maine, Minnesota, Wisconsin, Wash.
ington, Nebraska and Colorado, to
push the tax rates still higher. In
the beginning, when gas taxes were
only one or two cents gallon, it was
a popular form of taxtion with the
public and apparently many officials
still believe that zone cent more
won't make any difference. >.
There are unmistakable signs that
the public long patient, is firing Of
excessively high rates and perennial
increases. The voters of North Da.
kota recently refused to increase the
tax from three to four cents gallon,
and the disappearing voice OF the
public has been heard in other states.

The study Of fire control is said to
be almost as old as the history Of
man, but in former centuries effort
was chiefly given to working out
ways and means of keeping fires
from spreading.
Scientific work designed to prevent
the occurrence of fire is of very re-
cent origin and most of the progress
has been made in the last three
decades.
Organized fire prevention, accord
ing to an authority, first came into
being in Ohio. In that state the
nations first fire prevention asso-
citation was formed, the second fire
marshaps law was passed, the first
Safe and sane Fourth of July auth

was given official governmental sup

proclaimed Fire Prevention Day,
which has since become Fire Proven
ton Week.
Our fire waste is still gigantic,
but it is the fault of citizens if they
have neglected to learn the rules Of
fire prevention.
