The Chef Saws

With meat available, but so costly
that every scrap must be made to
count to the very last, We turn,
naturally, to ways of serving meat
leftovers. Stews, hashes, of course,
are fine, but there is nothing that
beats really well-made meat pie.
There are some tricks to making
meat pies that insure q rich, moist
filing, topped with fiaky pastry.
The degree OF moisture Is very i'm
portants as leftover cooked meat
tends to dry out, and this has to be
cotnteracted by plenty Of sauce,
gravy and Juicy vegetables.
The meat and lightly cooked veg.
etables are mixed with the sauce
or gravy, seasoned layishly with
salt, pepper and pinch Of an herb
blend especially designed for meat
stews and pies. III give you its

dish gives It added richness and
sest. When the ingredients have
been placed In . buttered casserole
or baking dish, they are topped with
pastry or biscuit dough and put in
the oven just long enough to brown
the crust. It is, therefore, impor-
tant that the meat, sauce and vege-
tables win have been mixed and
heated thoroughly for 10 minutes OF
so before they are put in the cas-
serole. The little time required to

THE perfume of greasewood
L after a desert shower, the
faint and fleeting loneliness of
saguaro blossoms, the yuccas
with their waxen white bloom,
the octillos tipped with brilliant
red, a cereus blooming at mid
night, magic mesas, mysterious
paths, balmy nights - that is
Arizona, the land of romance,
sunshine, progress!
The tourist, the sportsman and
the vacationist have all enjoyed the
state in brief moments, but to
haf-million people, Arizona is
home. They live in every section of
the state from the northern plateau
$4,000 to 1000 feet above sea leveD
to the southern part next to the bor-
der of Mexico $500 to $500 feet alti-
tude). On the broad plains and the
mountain sides they Craze their
livestock, and through the valleys
they lead the irrigation waters. They
grow long staple cotton, wheat,
corn, barley, oats, potatoes and i'm
mense quantities Of sub-tropical
fruits. Their dates thrive, and their
citrus industry is steadily growing.
From their mines they get copper,
gold, silver, lead, asbestos, zinc and
other metals.
Arizona is "a Land Made for Liv-
Ing" the citizens say. Phoenix, the
capital city, is an example. In 1868
q tiny settlement sprang up as
stagecoach stop. Two years later
the townsite was formally laid out,
and in 1881 the new community was
Incorporated. In 1898, Phoenix-the
territorial seat of government -
boasted population of 5000. Today
Phoenix is the Southwest's largest
inland city, and has a metropoli-
tan population of $4,000. Its grace

Yes, God enriches, but man had to
do his part. Dams were built,
bitches were dug, and the desert
bloomed. Modern science in the
mines found more wealth than mere
gold nuggets. Livestock grew fat.
Cities with permanent homes
sprang up. The warm, life-giving
sun shone down on 113,909 square
miles of Arizona. God enriches!
Arizona has IL national monu-
ments and 10 national forests.
Scenic attractions include awesome
Grand Canyon, historic Apache
trail, fantastic Fortified forest, col
orful Painted desert, Natural bridge,
Wonderland of Rocks, exotic border
towns of Old Mexico, fascinating
Meteor crater, Colossal cave, Oak
