Christmas passed off very
quietly in Ely. Merchants re-
port a fair trade, much larger
than last year, although not
what was expected. The
Christmas weather helped
things along somewhat and
sales of the better class of
goods, such as washing ma
chimes, radios, refrigerators,
furniture; wearing apparel, and
other necessary home furnish
ings made up the bulk of sales
although:there was much of the
smaller goods such as candies,
cigars, toys, etc., sold.
The Christmas spirit at the
churches prevailed all day and
night. Special services had
been prepared at all the
churches and fine musical pro-
grams were given, all of these
attesting to the talent of our
home artists. If there is any
town in the country with more
talented speakers and music
ians than we can claim, we
have not heard of it.

ON THIS
occasion
A Few Observations on Matters
Material and Immaterial by
the Editor.

Everyone we can remember,
was for the Shipstead-Nolan
bill and the bill did what it was
intended to rdo. 1t was in
tended to stop Backus and his
companions from making an
ocean of the northern part of
the state with the construction
of dams. Now comes the
Ethiopian in the wood pile"
The same law which was of
such benefit will prevent the
Vermilion Lake residents from
constructing a dam at Yer
million River to conserve a
steady head of water on Ver-
million lake in the interests of
navigation.
Unless there can be some
mitigating circumstances dis
covered in the act in favor of
this highly commendable plan,
this beneficial law may prove
a boomerang to Vermilion lake.
We sincerely hope that the at
torney general and the Wash
ington authorities will find a
method by which the lake level
can be maintained and the dam
constructed.

You will notice that for the
past year there have been no
supplements with the Miner
containing the proceedings of
the county commissioners.
Many of our subscribers have
commented on this and de-
plored the action of the county
board last; year in letting the
contract for the printing of this
important news to Duluth
daily instead of the II weeklies
of the county. Many of the
taxpayers outside of the Duluth
area do not get chance to see
these proceedings.
These II papers of the
county, organized under the
head of the ST. Louis County
Weekly Press Association, did
the publishing in the papers of
the association for the one price
of publication paid the Duluth
daily. That the circulation
among actual readers was
greater in the weekly press
than in the daily, goes without
saying.

SOUFFLE MAKES
BEANS PLEASING
Served With White Sauce,
New Food Appeal
viii Be Result.

When plain people don fancy
dress, the results are often astonish-
ing and likewise with vegetables.
Beans are a time honored vegetable,
but we scarcely get excited about
them unless-and here's the point
of the recipe below-they surprise
us with kind of palate appeal we
didn't suspect they had.
Bean souffle is delicate, work
of art in food that even Oscar of
the Waldorf would be proud of.
1 tablespoon butter
2 tablespoons -four
y teaspoon salt
Pepper
Few Gratings onion
2-3 cup evaporated milk
2-3 cup bean pulp
Prepare white sauce of the but
ter, flour, salt, pepper, onion, and
milk. Add egg yolks and continue
cooking two minutes, stirring con-
stantly. Cool slightly. Add bean
pulp and fold in the stiff1y beaten
egg whites.
Pour into buttered ramekins, set
in shallow pan of hot water,
and bake until set and delicately
Drowned, in a moderate oven, 375
degrees, about thirty minutes.
This is an excellent luncheon sug-
gestion. A crisp salad, and hot rolls
or mullins are additional touches
bound to meet with favor.

CHUCK SUPPLIES
POT ROASTS AT
LITTLE EXPENSE
Best Favored Portion of
Beef Available in Suit
able Sizes.

This is the time of year when our
thoughts automatically turn to nu-
tritious stews and deliciously
Drowned pot roastS. Especially is
this true when we visit our favorite
market and find on display those at
tractive easily carved homeless chuck
potroasts, Of just the right size to
meet the requirements Of our family.
The chuck. or shoulder section, of
the beef from which these pot
roasts are made, is considered the
best favored portion of the beef,
yet, under normal conditions of sup
ply and demand, the chuck is one
of the most reasonably priced Sec
tons of the beef.
If you are interested in economy
and will compare the price of
homeless chuck potroast with the
price of the popular homeless rolled
rib-roast, you will find that sub
stantial saving of IS to 25 per cent
can be made by using the homeless
chuck potroast.
Savory potroast is prepared as
follows:
Pounds pot-roast
onions, sliced
/ Glove garlic, sliced
II cup raisins.
3 Bay leaves
L cup boiling water
Salt
Pepper
Have a larded beef potroast pre-
pared at the market. Brown onions
and garlic in little suet. Sprinkle
meat with salt and pepper and
brown on all sides. Add raisins, bay
leaves and boiling water.
Cover tightly and simmer two
hours or until meat is tender. Add
more liquid if necessary. Remove
meat from kettle, strain and meas
ure liquid.
To each cup of liquid add two
tablespoons flour smoothed with
cold water. Cook until thickened,
stirring constantly. Serve gravy with
meat.

PLANKED MEAT
PLEASES TWICE
Both Eye and Palate Re-
Spond to Highly Deco
ratiVe Dish.

One of the most decorative ways
of serving food is the planked meat
dish.
A planked steak, for instance
with stuffed tomatoes, cauliaower
fowerettes, carrots cut in fancy
shapes and with a piping of mashed
potatoes about the border, is festive
enough for the most important &C.
casion.
Although these planked dishes
look very elaborate, they are not
beyond the skill of the average
housewife.
The first thing needed, of course,
is the plank, although heat-proof
glass platter may be used instead,
The plank is to be preferred, how
ever, for the wood lends a distinc-
tive flavor to the food.
Select an oak plank of generous
proportions, or use two if your din
ner party is to be large.
A new plank must be prepared
before using for the first time, so
that it will not warp or split. Rub
the plank well with fat; place in
a slow oven, about 300 degrees, and
leave for an hour or until the fat
has completely penetrated the wood.
The cuts of meat best adapted for
planking are the tender cuts which
may be broiled or panbroiled.
PorterhouSe and sirloin steaks are
the cuts most frequently used for
this purpose, but lamb chops make
a good planked dish. Ham, sau-
sages and ground beef are adapted
to this type of cooking

CROWN ROAST
OF LAMBS LIKED
Many Dishes Favored for
Spring Menu; Aided
by Pork.

Spring and lamb are so closely
associated in our minds that it
seems natural for the housewife to
plan a great many of the meals
around this meat.
OF course. lamb may be had in
most markets at all seasons of the
year, but there is an abundant sup
ply of choice lamb available in
springtime.
One of the most delicious of lamb
dishes is the crown roast. Have
the crown prepared at the market.
Before placing it in the oven, pro-
tect the ends of the bones from
charring by placing a cube of salt
pork on each. Fill the center of
the crown with apple dressing To
make this dressing fry two or three
slices of salt pork until crisp and
then remove the pieces. Cook 4
cup chopped celery, 4 cup chopped
onion and tablespoons chopped
parsley in the fat for or 4 minutes.
Remove them and dice 2 apples
into the fat. Sprinkle with Il cup
of sugar, cover and cook slowly I'M
til they are tender.
Add y cup fine dry bread crumbs,
the pieces of crisp salt pork and
cooked vegetables. Season with salt
and pepper and place inside the
crown of lamb.
Place the crown in a hot oven,
480 degrees, and scar until it is
nicely Drowned, then lower the tenn
perature to about 300 degrees, and
roast for IL hours. Remove to a
hot platter and replace the pork on
the rib ends with paper frills of
cubes of potatoes.
Place in the center OF the crown a.
head of cauliflower which has been
cooked whole. Decorate il with
paprika.
