TIPS ON FOOD
ECONOMY TO
HELP BUDGET

The homemaker proves her
knowledge of economy by the
food she selects, says lnez >.
Wilson, home economist. She
is anxious to serve meals for her
family that supply all Of the nu-
trients necessary for buoyant
health and, at the same time,
keep within her budget. Many
women go even step farther
and plan their meals SO they are
time and labor saving as well.
Because we plan our meals
around meat, the less-demanded
or economy cuts may be served
often to keep our food budgets
in line.
Ground meats are the basis OF
many pleasing dishes which are
easy to prepare as well as nour-
ishing for the body. They are
economical because they are all
meat and they are easy to cook,
as the grinding makes the meat
tender. Ground meat-beef, lamb

cording to that story, before the

the effort to save man hours that
the workmen who had built the

Exigencies of war again bring

the fore. Foreign nations, their

to the children as a large, un-

While these nations are seek

paign reaches its climax each

Auto Area Tool Shops
Near Capacity Output

DETROIT.-The potential capaci-
ty of tool shops in the automotive
area for small tools urgently needed
for national defense production is
pretty well exhausted" according
to Chester Calm, secretary of the
Automotive Tool and Die Manufac-
turers' association. Mr.. Calm said
20 per cent of the tool and die shops
in the automotive area were work
ing on national defense orders.
Facilities for producing what is
needed most have been fully real
lied and the problem of expanding
is the most serious one," Calm said.
The most pressing requirement of
tool and die shops in the defense pic
ture were gauges and then machine
tools for manufacture of aircraft
parts, he said.
He asserted that a majority of the
tool shops were working on
gauges, fixtures and jigs ordered by
aircraft companies. Much die work
has been converted to tool work, be-
cause large die shops were operat-
ing at only so per cent capacity.
