Roast
Beef

You may purchase a beef rib roast
containing the bones or you can
have a boneless, rolled roast. The
rolled roast is somewhat easier to
carve. Remember that this compact
roast takes a little longer cooking
time than one of equal size contain
ing the rib bones. Since the rib Sec
ton is tender part of the animal,
the meat is cooked by dry heat,
without cover and no water added to
the pan.
Place the roast fat side up in an
open roasting pan. The standing rib
roast is placed so that the rib ends
form a rack to keep the meat out
of the juices. The rolled roast should
be placed on a rack. Season with
salt and pepper. Make an incision
and insert roast meat thermome
ter SO the bulb reaches the center OF
the fleshiest muscle, taking care that
| it does not rest on fat or bone. Place
in a slow oven 600 degrees Fahren-
heiD. 1t will be done to the rare
stage when the thermometer regis
ters 140 degrees Fahrenheit, me-
dium done when 1t registers 160 de-
grees Fahrenheit, and well done at
ITO degrees Fahrenheit. For a stand
ing rib roast, allow 18 to 20 minutes
per pound to roast to the rare stage,
% to Is minutes per pound for me-
dium, and q minutes per pound for
well-done roast. 1t requires 10 to
Is minutes per pound longer for

CLEANING HANDBAG.

From M. H. M, Alexandria, Va }
The bag can be cleaned in "stod-
dardS solvent" This formula ]
produced by every well-known re-
filming company of petroleum. Diff
ferent companies call their product
OF this formula by their own special
commercial names.
Some local filling stations handle
this fluid, but the most certain
source is wholesale distributing
company of petroleum products.
1t is infiammable, but not so much
as high-teSt gasoline or cleaners
naphtha. l understand that it is
slightly more inf1ammable than
kerosene. 1 would advise doing the
cleaning in a shady place out OF
doors.
Pour the cleaning fluid into a
deep dishpan or a deeper receptacle
which is sufficiently great in diam
| eter to plunge the handbag up anG
down in the fluid. If the color
does not fade it may be best to per-
init the bag to soak" in the fluid
for 10 or Is minutes, so the dirt
will loosen, and then to plunge il
up and down. To insure greater
cleanliness it may be advisable tc
put it through rinsing process in
a second or "rinsing" bath of the
solvent. Then hang the bag ur
where it can drain. Don't work on
grass or hang the bag over the
grass as the solvent kills grass.
This fluid is very drying for the
skin on the hands and may slightly
burn" it. Rinse the hands in a
weak solution of vinegar after COM
pleting the cleaning, and then use
hand cream or lotion. 1 think
you'll find the whole procedure to
be worth your efforts and slight dis
comfort. Woolens and felt hats can
be SO cleaned, too.

Report to the Housewife

/ important minerals. A survey
made from 1889 to 1941 discloses
that the average student going to
college away from home improves
in nutrition-indicatin that their
meals or their eating habits were
better than those in existence in
their homes. But the experts also
figure that another factor in this
situation was that eating in groups
and away from home tends to make
students forget food prejudices held
in the past, and they, in conse-
quence, absorb better, well-round-
ed diet. Mayor La Guardia of
New York City is credited with this
sound tip-"Slice a little off the top
and then squeeze the whole orange.
There will be less waste. You'll get
more juice that way" And a big
citrus-growing concern backs him
up, pointing out, too, that following
his honor's directions will mean
economy in time and labor as well
as less waste. Pick up splinters
Of broken glass with a dampened
Wad of cotton or cleansing tissue.
Here's a new one-frozen water
melon juice as a drink: Press the
juice from the melon pulp through
a sieve, strain it and pour it into
an ice cube tray, adding pinch of
salt. 1t won't freeze solid, but in
three hours it will be refreshingly
cold, and with a sprig of mint in
each glass wonderful warm
weather cooler. And to make
jellied soup in a jiffy, pour the
liquid, to which gelatin has been
added, into an ice tray, and in
about an hour, normally, it will be
jelled. Watch it though. because
If left too long it develops ice crys-
tails. Once it has jelled fairly hard
you can finish it off in the box, out
side the coils. This is also a fine
way to get cold, unjellied soups,
really cold, as they should be. But
again watch out for crystalsI

Most markets report happily that
they expect even better supplies of
beef this week than last-and that
the future looks roster and roster as
far as beef is concerned. So that
bee-yoo-ti-ful roast depicted here
with may not be such a far distant
dream after all! Veal, too, will be
more plentiful this week end; lamb
remains scarce. Pork shows little
change, either, with all cuts being
definitely on the hard-to-find side.
There is plenty of processed Amer
lean loaf cheese, and some cheddar
is obtainable in a few markets. With
the easing of dairy products, con-
sumers can reyel in table cream,
cottage cheese, cream cheese and
similar items as much as they wish.
There is plenty of butter for those
who have points. Incidentally, some
new-packaged butter is being Of
fered to Washington buyers; 1t con-
tains four quarter-pound prints to
the package, but is much stubbier
than the usual acknowledgement, 1t
is said. to save space in the re-
frigerator.
Despite the celebration" runs on
canned goods, when the rationing on
them was lifted, many markets are
still we'll stocked in a number OF
items. Among these are canned to-
matoes, ketchup, grape juice, apple
sauce, and so on. Canned peaches,
pineapple juice and peas seem to
have taken a terrific beating in that
first mad rush. Some specially
stores have new shipments of those
tender little artichoke hearts put up
In brine, rather than in olive Oil,
and more canned soups seem to be
reaching the grocers' shelves. Soap
and soap powders continue scarce,
as do salad dressings and oils.
Most scale fish will be plentiful for
the week end, with the familiar line,
up including porgies, croakers, spots,
rock, Boston .mackerel, trout and
butterhsh. Perch flllet and all
kinds of crab meat are IN good sup
ply. Some soft crabs and few
Holsters can be found in the bigger
seafood markets, along with clans
and hard crabs.
There is little change in the poul-
try picture and eggs continue scarce
and high.
Produce is flooding the market,
with quality slightly improved and
most prices a bit lower than last
week. Potatoes are the big news
they are so plentiful that the Gov
ernment urges housewives to use
them as much as possible. There
are big Idahos for baking and the
regular type from New Jersey. These
early crop potatoes do not store as
we'll as the later crop; therefore it
is wise to put as many of them as
possible to immediate use.
Other gluts are peaches and can
