Frozen Fish
Nutritive

The greater public acceptance of
frozen FOODS today has placed a new
appreciation on fresh frozen fish.
Food experts acknowledge the high
nutritive value of fresh frozen fish
which serve an added public serv-
ice by stabilizing seafood prices
when supplies Of fresh fish are light,
the Fishery Council reports.
Through advanced progress in
freezing today, fish are often frozen
right at the point of production on
the same day as they are caught.
This is usually done in times when
there is very heavy supply of a
particular variety and ordinarily
this means that that particular FISH
is at its very best quality. Modern
storage assures that the fresh frozen
fish will keep that excellent condi-
ton for months and makes it avail
able to the public when the fresh
supply OF that variety is very low.
Only the finest specimens of the
different varieties are selected for
storage" Mrs. Francis Foley Can
non, head of the Consumers Service
Bureau of the N. Y. C. Dept. of
Markets. wrote recently. During
the height of the season, when of
course they are most plentiful, these
fish are subjected to quick freezing
Immediately after they are landed
and then placed in the cold-storage
warehouse until they are required
on the market.
I'm the modern storage plant the
freshness and flavor of these fish
are retained and they lose nothing
of nutritive value

Rio Grande
Onelet ZeSty
BY DOROTHY GRIEG

Fresh crusty rolls, a dish of raw
carrot strips and celery stalks crisped
in ice water, and this Rio Grande
omelet make the main course of just
about as zestful a meal as anyone
could wish. It's a meal, too, that can
be whisked together with little
trouble-important in these days
when war work takes SO much of
our time. A satisfying dessert to
such a meal is apple sauce pressed
through seive until smooth, then
favored with nutmeg and served
with cream. But now for the omelet.
This is the way TO make it:
The Sauce For 1t
2 tablespoons onions, chopped.
l tablespoon green pepper, chopped
2 tablespoons butter
can condensed tomato soup
IL cup mushrooms, cooked
Saute the chopped onion and
green pepper in the butter until
soft, but not brown. Then add the
condensed tomato soup and the IL
cup cooked mushrooms.
The Omelet
eggs
ID teaspoon salt
Pinch of pepper
tablespoons water
tablespoons butter
Beat the eggs until well mixed
then add seasonings and water and
mix again. Melt the butter in a pan
and place over a moderate flame
Pour eggs in pan and as the omelet
cooks, lift the edges and tip the par
so that the uncooked egg flows
under the cooked portion of the
omelet. When bottom is Drowned
put three tablespoons of the sauce
in the omelet and fold over Or roll
Serve omelet on a platter or plate
and put more sauce over or AROUND
it. Serves ga.

Wartime
Economical
Use of Foods
BY MARIE CLIFFORD

BY MARIE CLIFFORD
We are, all anxious to contribute
something tangible to the defense
Of our country. Obviously, we can't
all don a uniform and enter the
ranks for Uncle Sam. But We can
make just as important a contribu-
ton In our own homes by efficient
management of our money and eff
cient feeding of our families to
maintain high standard of health
and strength.
Economical use of all foods =
including meats - is a big problem
confronting all of us. Pork is one
meat that we will continue to have
In abundance so there will be many
good buys for our table. But last
years knowledge about buying pork
must be scrapned. We used to de-
pend upon pork shoulder butts and
picnics as the best buys in fresh
pork. Today you can buy pork loin
roast for less than pork shoulder. The
reason Is this = there is an enorm-
Gus demand for pork picnics and
shoulder butts and large hams for
smoking or canning for export and
for use by the Armv and Navy That
leaves an excess Of other pork cuts
for us to by and we can buv them
for lower prices. Study the follow
ing list for up-to-date minute mar
ket information.
Here is list of some of the best
buys in fresh pork with the amount
to buy for people.

When you are looking for a cut
of beef to cook as a pot roast, you
will find that the heel Of the round
has many features to commend H..
This Is a three -cornered cut weigh
ing between three and five POUNDS.
1t consists chiefly Of lean meat.
There Is little waste. 1t is eco
nornical.
This cut is fine in flavor and Is
often chosen for grinding. Or, it
may be cut into cubes for stew. IL
requires long slow cooking in moist
heat for it Is one of the less tender
cuts. But it is deliciously tender
when cooked in the proper way.
This cut is a good choice for
cooking as sauerbraten, that Is when
it is allowed to stand in mixture
of oil and vinegar, and when vinegar
Is added to the liquid in which it IS
cooked. This gives SPECIAL and
delicious flavor to the meat and the
acid mixture has a softening action
ON the connective tissue.
Here are directions for cooking
heel of round as a regular pot roast,
and also for a very fine favored
sauerbraten, with gingersnap gravy.

away, more may be added, a little
at time.

The Difference

Mental attitude" MacPhail con-
tinued, els one of the big factors in
any game. I've heard Bobby Jones
say it was at least rs per cent of
golf. Any football coach will tell
you the big part it plays in his sport.
Of course, skill is important, speed
is important and power is impor-
tant. So is experience. But mental
attitude is even more important.

Whit Wyatt would walk into the
clubhouse before some hard game
and say, Listen, you buns, give me
