Bertha NJ. Lewis Department of
Agriculture has just released the
answers to several very important
questions that every housewife
should know. So for this weeks
column we submit them for your
approval.
Question: M neio recipe book
says soaring doesn't help to hold
in the juices i0hen you roast meat.
Is this true?
Answer Your new recipe book
Is absolutely correct on this point.
Instead of holding the juice in the
meat, soaring actually drives 1t
out. II you want to retain all the
Juice possible in a tender roast,
keep your oven at a moderate. ev-
en- temperature from start to fin
ish, say about 300 F. And do not
overlook the meat. Well done beef
is bound to shrink and lose more
juice than roast cooked only to
the rare" stage.
Question: Should you roast a
leg Of lamb or ribs Of beef ia a
covered or an open PAM
Answer: All tender meats with
a good covering of fat are better
roasted in an open pan. Strangely
enough, your tender roast will be
more juicy if you keep the oven
temperature moderate and follow
the excellent motto of Use no CO.
yer, add no water" A cover on
the rooster and added water both
make steam. and steam draws out
the juices. They are lost from the
meat, though they may be saved
in the gravy.
But if the roast is tough there is
a different answer. Steam is nee
essary to help soften the tough
tissues. But don't steam-jacket a
tender roast unless you want to
make a pot roast of it.
Question: Wig does the meri'i-
que on nay lemon pie shrink and
get 1Udtery a0hen take 1t out of
the oVen? 1t is dli0dyS so high and
so nice and bro10n tohen / first
take it out
Answer: Probably you bake the
meringue in too hot an oven, so
that it browns over the top before
the egg foam has cooked through.
Meringues will usually be cooked
enough to hold their snaps if you
bake them in a very moderate ov-
en- (3250 F.) for 20 minutes. But
if your meringue is piled high on
the pie you will be wise to bake
it more slowly and for longer
time.
Add few grains of salt to the
egg white when you start beating.
The salt will help make the foam
stand up better. And be sure to
The Northwest enterprise. [volume] (Seattle, Wash.) 1931-1952, 1939-01-13

use the correct amount of sugar.
About two tablespoons for each
egg white usually works best.
If you beat the egg whites by
hand - the usual costum - add
the sugar when the foam is stiff
enough to stand in peaks. A wire
whip makes for more fluffiness
than a dover beaten. But if you
use a power beaten, add the sugar
before beating the egg white, then
your foam will be sure TO stand
up.

SMITH ESTATE
CASE REMANDED

OLYMPIA-The state supreme
court ruled late Thursday that
Mrs. Sarah E. Smith had not given
her S5.000.000 estate to Reese B.
Brown. and remsnded TO Yakima
county superior court for further
trial a suit 10 recover the money
and securities.
Brown acted as the elderly Seat
tie widows business manager
after she turned over TO him her
entire possessions. The two fled
over United States and into Cana
da. TO escape income tax collectors.
She died in 1882 in Montreal. Smith
kept her death a secret for two
years but he died in 1884. Wilmon
Tucker brought the suit as admin
istrator Of her estate, to recover
+ the assets from Browns heirs.
/ Browns heirs then produced two
affidavits, which the supreme court
said apparently were not forgeries,
saving she had decided TO cancel
all obligation of Brown to repay
her S4s5,000 loaned him and other
stocks and bonds. The high court
said the Brown heirs failed to show
satisfactorily how they came in
possession of the affidavits.
The papers also failed to make
the actual transfer of ownership
of the money and securities, the
supreme court said, because they
merely said she had decided" to
transfer the assets, and did not in
themselves actually transfer them

trial must be assembled now.
"In this trial, it is imperative
that we develop facilities through
which We can separate our case
from that of the state-for, jointly
charged with these shortcomings.
we shall be jointly tried. And thus
tried, we will jointly hang for
them"
The president of the commits
sioners, Art Carton, said in his
annual address that at the next
election citizens would vote on
constitutional amendment making
possible more than two terms for
county officials. He asked that
Importance of the measure be
stressed TO voters.
Carton also urged greater de-
gree of cooperation among the 80
counties, especially regarding mat
tiers affecting all of them.

Enemies Struck"
Selvidge reviewed the start Of
the depression in 1929; government
handling Of relief in 1881; the
growing tax load due to the high
cost of relief, and finally the rebel
lion of the taxpayers.

Those seeking GENERALIZATION of

county governments continued to

DEATH
OF MISS HAYDEN
FOUND NOT TRUE
REPORTED TO HAVE BEEN
VICTIM OF ATHENA DIS
ASTER: MOTHER TELLS OF
SAFETY

News was current in the city
today and last evening that Miss
Marie cambridge Hayden, daugh-
ter of the late Captain E. E. Hay
den, commandant of the naval
station during the years 1912 and
1914, was one of the Americans
who lost their lives during the
sinking of the Steamship Athen-
la, which was bound for America
and which was torpedoed by a
German submarine.
The news of Miss Hayden's
death was found to be untrue up
on the return of Mrs. Edwin
Phillips who had been visiting in
the north with her daughter,
Mrs. Warren Watrous, and on the
return trip had stopped in Wash
ington, and visiting at the home
if Mrs. Clifford P. Myer, for
merly Miss Marie Watrous. She
had been told by Mrs. Myer that
Mrs. Hayden had been advised
from Europe to the effect that
her daughter was safe. This in
formation was given to The Citi-
zen by Miss Eta Patterson
shortly after being told by Mrs
Phillips.

ABOUT NEUTHALS

Europe's neutral nations are
important factors in the outcome
of the war SPANS neutrality
is serious blow to Nazi hopes
because Spanish bases were es-
sential to German submarines in
the Mediterranean Sea and At
lantic Ocean. Belgium could
barass Germany quite a. bit with
its rather strong yet small army
and cause a division of German
troops, but could not help in an
offensive campaign. Neutral
Netherlands is very vulnerable
to Nazi attack. But the Belgian
Dutch neutrality helps to pre-
vent German air raids on Eng
land. Switzerland is well forti-
fled. War against Switzerland
would be costly to Germany
though Switzerland has a key
position between Germany and
Italy. Denmark, commanding an
entrance to the Baltic Sea is in
an extremely exposed position
but is poorly armed. Norway is
better armed. Sweden is inn
portant because of its high grade
one, and its munitions works. Fin
land is in a bad position because
of her exposed Russian border
Baltic states could not long re-
sist attack by Germany or Rus
STA. Because of the major charac-
ter of the war any of these neu-
trails may be forced to side in
with one of the great belligerent
nations.

Now Americans want arms to be
