STUFFED Shoulder of Lamb.
How to Buy: Good quality lamb is
pinkish and well-marbled with fat
Outside fat is smooth, hard, glossy
and cream-white. Look for both gov
eminent inspection stamp and pack
er's private grade stamp. Find the
grade that suits you, then always
buy it. Ask your meat man to bone
the shoulder, leaving a cavity to fill
with stuffing. (You can use the
bones for broth. soup or gravy
stock.)
How to Cook: Prepare a well-sea-
soned stuffing; fill cavity, then sew
up edges or skewer in place. Weigh
meat after stuffing to compute cook
ing time. Place fat side up on rack
in open pan, rub with salt and pep

2 slices bacon
2 cups bread crumbs
l cup sour apples, chopped

u cup celery, chopped
Fry bacon until crisp and add to
bread crumbs, raisins, diced apples
and celery. Season with salt and
pepper and pile lightly into cavity
in lamb shoulder.
Eye-Of-ROund Roast.
How to Buy: The lean of beef
should be well-marblcd with fat,
firm, smooth, glossy: soon after the
meat is cut, the surface should turn
bright red. The outer fat should
be fairly thick, firm, naky, cream
white. In lower grades fat is soft
er, yellower. Though price per
pound will perhaps exceed that of
rib roast, it is all solid meat-no
bones, no fat, no waste of any kind.

TEXTILE PROFITS

When OPM Purchasing Chief Don
aid Nelson remarked at his press
conference that textile prices we're
under scrutiny, his words went I'M
noticed in the press. But to textile
insiders they sent cold shivers up
the spine.
What Nelson did not reveal, but
which they knew, was that his as
sociate, Leon Henderson, defense
price regulator, had quietly COM
pleted a survey showing that the
mill margins (profits) are the high
est in history. Henderson's figures
show a jump in mill margins from
1858 in June, 1910, to 16 in Febru-
airy, 1941, and still going up.
If the price paid growers for cot
ton had kept pace with that of tex
tiles, it would be selling today at
around 20 cents a pound instead of
1O.71-its present figure. Informal
ly, Henderson has warned textile
leaders to watch their step, indi-
eating willingness to allow them to
put on the brakes themselves.

NAILS SHY OF MAGNESIUM

NAILS SHY OF MAGNESIUM
Examination by U. S. experts of
the captured Messerschmitt sent
here by the British has uncovered
one highly significant fact: The
Nazis are now using only l to 200
pounds of magnesium in the con-
struction of these famous fighter
planes.
This low Nazi magnesium content is
compared to the 400-500 pounds used
in similar u. S. planes made of this
featherweight metal, one-third light
er than aluminium. Our big bomb
ers use as much as ZOO pounds of
magnesium. The more magnesium
used, the lighter the overall weight
Of the planes.
This is considered evidence that
German magnesium production is
not keeping pace with Luftwaffe re-
quirements. II it were, the Nazis
would certainly be using more mag
nesium in their planes, because of
its extreme lightness and strength.
Heavier metals increase the dead
weight, reducing the ships lifting
power, speed and cruising range, all
vital factors in aerial combat.
If, as the experts believe, German
magnesium production is falling be-
hind war needs, it is highly i'm
portant. Under the Nazis, Germany
took the world lead in the output of
this strategic metal.
For years the United States Jagged
behind because of cartel agreements
between magnesium and aluminium
manufacturers, which kept down
production. In 1899, u S. magne-
SUM production barely totaled 7,O0O,-
600 pounds. BY 1910, as a result of
frantic defense efforts, this was
stepped up to l2,500,000 pounds, still
far short of army, navy and aid
Britain requirements.
Large scale output of certain
types of aircraft is being held up
until several new magnesium plants
get into operation. OPM plans call
for an output of rs, 100000 pounds in
1912. If no bitches develop, the
$4,000, 000-pound mark may be
reached by the end of this year.
