meat on ruskS provides a quick. easy dish with
plenty of taste and eye appeal. inexpensive. un-
rationed, and ready for use right out OF the

excellent bases for creamed foods.

women voters do not mean TO

they seldom know a thing about

To Preserve
Cut Flowers

IN BURNING the ends Of
such flowers as snow-on-the-
mountain which would other
wise eXude their thick sap and
not stand up under cutting, it
is best TO use a candle, rather
than the flame of a gas range,
since the gas fumes may be
highly injurious to the flowers.
IL the cut stems are plunged
in boiling water rather than
burned, then the flowers must
be protected from the rising
steam. Wrapping them in paper
will do this.

Tendency of the trade to regard

it was said at VIA, was the prin-

and prices paid to the poultry
farmer. Current prices to the farmer
in the Midwest, according to the

LONDON, April 2 Sunday The
Sunday Observer said today that
Russia has asked the United States
TO continue lease-lend aid for three
years after the close of the war In
Europe.
Washington's reply, the newspaper
continued, was reported to be a re-
quest for promise that Russia will
cooperate fully with the Western
powers IN the war against Japan.
"On this question, however, Mos
cow has been reluctant to make any
commitment" the Sunday Observer
said.
THE result is that Washington
has deferred giving definite reply
to the Russian lease-lend request
and now is considering what policy
to adopt should the Russians re-
