ChObbing of
Meat Will
Save Money
BY SISTER MARY
MA Service Writer

If fuel is an expensive item in
your household, you may find that
the cuts of meat which are usually
cheap in price require so much cur
rent or gas to cook them that no
real saving is effected; the money
saved on the meat must be spent
for heat.
This problem often can be solved
by chopping the tougher cuts OF
meat. Chopped meat cleverly ham
died may be cooked quite as quickly
as the more expensive steaks and
chops. Beef, veal, lamb and pork
can be chopped and used in many
appetizing ways.
Chopped veal is made into small
fat cakes, each cake bound by a
strip of bacon, to make veal patties.
These can be praised over the fire
or baked in a hot oven. Either
method takes from thirty-five to
forty-five minutes to cook the meat.
Quite a difference from the two or
three hours required for a stewl
Make Same Patterns
Lamb or beef can be made into
these same patties and cooked the
same way or broiled. These meats
are particularly good broiled and
broiling requires even less time than
the other methods.
Combined with cracker or bread
crumbs. chopped meat makes ex-
cellent meat loaves with the crumbs
acting as an "extender." Careful
seasoning makes these loaves Savory
and little meat goes a long way.
Forty-f1ve minutes to an hour is
needed to bake these loaveS.
Nourishing dishes are provided
when chopped meat and cereal are
used together. Rice or macaronf
can be used il a number of ways
with chopped meat and vegetables
or with the meat alone. Potatoes
ned not be included in the menu
when a combination of the sort Is
served.
Tamale pie is an adaptation of
the popular "hot tamale" of the
southwest. Beef, pork or veal can
be used in place of the chicken usu-
ally found in the real tamale.

Pede..rian's Rights

There is no one who has invested
money in towns and cities or in prop
erty or business who is not concerned
in solving this problem Of traffic to
the extent that those vehicles of trans
portation that are used to transport
passengers shah be allowed to operate
and run with the least Inconvenience.
The pedestrian is just as much oc-
cupied with this proposition. If he
the man who does not operate pri-
vate vehicles excluded, then a very
vital factor in the matter is left out.
First. the pedestrian uses the common
or public means of transportation. He
arrives at his destination in the MORN
ing. which is his occupation. In the
evening he goes to his natural abode,
where he has invested money. During
the day he uses the streets and side
walks. which are dedicated to his use
as we'll as to that of vehicles.
The pedestrian cannot, and must not,
be excluded from any study that has
to do with traffic regulation.-ES-

thing worth consideration that is not

Skintled brickwork produces this

with it the intermingling of the in

HOMEGROWN Grain Used
in Feeding Mixture

1t is generally considered that a
dairy COW that is fed 80 pounds Of
corn silage and 10 to II pounds Of
alfalfa, needs a grain mixture carry
ing 80 per cent of farm grown grains
and 10 per cent of high protein con-
centrate. whereas when timothy hay
Is fed in place of alfalfa the grain
mixture should contain about so per
cent of high protein concentrate and
so per cent of one or more of the
heme grown grains.
Thus, when COW requires 10
pounds of grain day. and timothy
instead of alfalfa constitutes the dry
roughage of the ration. only five
pounds of home grown grain can be
used while the other five pounds must
be purchased at around two and a
half to three cents pounds. On the
other hand, when alfalfa constitutes
the dry roughage Of the ration, nine
pounds of home grown grain can be
used in the grain mixture with only
one pound of protein concentrate hav-
ing to be purchased.

Factors Influencing the
Keeping Fruit Quality

A new bulletin entitled. ''Some Fac
tors Influencing the Keeping Quality
of Fruits in Transit" has been re-
leased by the college Of agriculture,
University of Illinois, Urbana. Ac-
cording to results of tests conducted
by the experiment station Of the col
lege, as reported in this bulletin, dam
aged fruit. now heavy drain on the
profits of Illinois fruit growers, could
very largely be prevented by proper
precautions in picking, handling, grad
ing and packing.
Three phases of the problem were
investigated by the college workers in
attempting to work out ways whereby
Illinois growers could protect their
profits. They compared the careful
with the rough handling Of strawber-
rfes, summer apples and peaches; the
prompt with delayed loading Of these
same three commodities, and studied
the use Of different types Of pack
ages for strawberries and peaches.

The most feeding value will be OBJ
tanned this year by putting the corn
crop in the silo.
Cows need from three to four
pounds of water for each pound Of
milk they give.
Wool should be stored in a clean,
dry place until it is sold. It should
never be stored in a basement.
Spring calves or calves born in late
winter should be kept in the barn dur
ing the summer if they are to make
proper growth.
Real cooperation is needed If for
ests are to be protected against their
greatest enemy, fire. The easiest time
to fight fire is before it starts.
Magnesium arsenate is considered
the best control spray for the Mexican
bean BEETLE. If it cannot be obtained.
calcium arsenate may be used success
fully.
In the event that crops for silo cease
to grow for lack of moisture, they
should be allowed to stand in the field
as long as they will be benefited by
a rain.
Succession paintings permit the gar
dener to keep the soil in use and to
grow a steady supply of vegetables
from the land. Leafy plants should
follow root crops. and vice versa.
Sweet clover, seeded alone early in
the spring on good land which is adapt.
ed to it, may make good grazing after

Tomato Seed Of
Big Importance
That From Wilt Resistant
Plants Should Be Saved
for Next Year.

Home gardeners who are producing
wilt-resistant tomatoes will find that
the seed from these plants are as good
IL not better than the seed obtained
from outside sources, according to G..
w. FAINT. extension plant pathologist
at the North Carolina State college.
"This is especially true If the grower
will select only the heaviest bearing
and most resistant plants from which
to get his seed for next years plant
ing" he states.
Equipment Needed.
Where only small amount of seed
is to be saved, no apparatus except a
small water-tight vessel is needed.
The ripe tomatoes are placed in the
vessel and thoroughly crushed. Sufii-
cient water is added to cover the to-
matoes and they are left over night
to ferment. The next day the vessel
is filled with water and the mass care
fully stirred. By adding more water
slowly, the skins. cores and pulp will
float off and the seed sink to the bot
tom. The water is tnen dralneu OH
and the seed collected.
Mr.. FAINT states that seed secured
from a neighbor who is growing the
wilt-resistant variety will, in most
cases, give better results than seed
bought outside, especially of the direc-
lions for saving the seed have been
followed.
WiIt-Resistant Varieties.
There are several varieties Of wilt
resistant tomatoes, chief among which
are the Marvana, Norduke, Marvel, and
Norton. Growers who have any of
these varieties planted are safe in saw
ing the seed but the Norton and Mar
vel are the two that are recommended
by Mr.. FAINT. In tests conducted
throughout the state the Norton has
shown a greater resistance and also
produces large yield of high quality
fruit. Where growers are troubled
with wilt, seed from the varieties
named should be secured for next
years planting.

Best Time for Cutting
Corn Crop for Silage

A recent circular issued by the Kan
sas experiment station brings out
some points on the making Of silage
which are of vital Importance to ev-
cry farmer who has a silo to fill, es-
pecially the man who is filling one
for the first time. The circular points
out the fact that it is desirable to
cut the crop for the silo in a very
green condition, before the ear and
stalks had matured. and very sour
silage. high in moisture, was obtained.
OF late years the tendency has been
to allow the corn crop to stand until
more mature. The proper time to cut
corn for the silo is about week or
ten days before it is ready to put up
in the shock; the ear should be well
dented and the lower leaves on the
stalk dry, but the stalk itself still full
of sap.

Plan for
Removal of Road Signs

The old question of how to get rid
of offensive roadside billboard adver-
Using was under discussion at re-
cent conference on rural beauty in
Washington, and plan was proposed
said to have the approval of billboard
interests and automobile and farm
groups. Put the matter up to the bust
ness sense and good conscience of the
property owners. was the proposal.
Herbert U. Nelson, executive secre-
tary of the National Association of
Real Estate Boards, has drawn up
model bill providing that three-fourths
of the owners of roadside land may
petition the proper authorities to bar
these lands from commercial uses. In
such restricted areas exceptions are
made for signs offering the property
for sale. or for products manufac-
tured or grown upon the premises.
In return for the loss of rentals
from roadside space, this plan would
have state and local authorities recon-
pense the landowners by special at
tention to roadside care and beautifi-
cation. The suggestion has the adj
vantage that it eliminates the threat
of exercise of the police power of the
state in keeping the highways free
from objects that detract from the
beauty of scenery, but enlists the CO.
operation of those who should be most
interested in the preservation Of such
assets. Plain Dealer.

Best Curing Process
Needed for Alfalfa
Allow 1t to Wilt in Swath
for Six Hours.

Number l alfalfa hay must be GO
per cent green color, and it must be
40 per cent leaves. That proportion
is what the haymaker wants after he
has cut his crop.
If the hay is cut down on a bright
day and left in the swath it cures
rapidly, bleaches, and becomes so brit
tie that the leaves shatter. Good hay
cannot be made with such rapid cur
ing. If the hay is cut down and raked
Immediately into swath it cures SO
slowly that it is almost sure to get
wet.
"The most practical way Of putting
up quality hay is to cut it down and
allow it to wilt in the swath for -four
to six hours and then rake into a
loose, open windrow," recommends l..
E. Willoughby. extension alfalfa spe-
cialist, Kansas State Agricultural col
lege. Usually alfalfa hay cut in the
morning can be raked by afternoon
and put Into the stack the following
day providing the weather is in our
favor"
Willoughby points out that II hay
is put into the windrow in a wilted
condition and rain does come, 1t
may be turned in the windrow and
allowed to finish curing with only a
small amount of damage. He says
that he has known cases where fair
ly good hay has been made after be-
ing rained on two or three times and
turned after each rain.

Roadside Gumption Is
Needed for Marketing

The path to success in roadside mar
keting is really so plain that it is
singular how it can ever be missed.
Here are the. half-dozen requirements:
Absolutely fresh produce.
Variety and good quality.
No delays-immediate service.
Courtesy on every sale, however
small.
Prices higher than wholesale, lower
than retail.
If possible. high-profit sideline.
That is all there is to it, except of
course that your stand must be on
highway that is Travelled, or can be
Travelled. Customers will not pillow
through mud.
Attractive signs help. Parking space
off the highway is good, and III some
states is compulsory.
