Hens for the Freezer

Hens for the Freezer
To save critical grain this fall and
| winter the u. S. Department of Agri-
culture is urging farm housewives
to freeze or can all non-paying
boarders in the poultry flock. At this
! season, most mature hens take a few
| months vacation from laying while
they acquire new feathers, but they
continue to eat while they loaf. Such
hens average 5 to 8 pounds of feed a
| month. and of that feed, 3 to 5
pounds is grain that could be milled
for human food. Every loafer in the
flock, therefore, is a drain on the
country's grain supplies.
In freezing the non-laying hens
which are likely to be large and
big boned--the housewife wants to
| avoid wasting freezer space by stor-
ing mere bone.
Separate the meaty and bony
pieces, and remove bone from the
latter before freezing"
Following are directions for freeZ-
ing meat from large chickens.
Disjoint chickens. Separate meaty
pieces (breasts, thighs, legs,) to be
frozen raw, and bony pieces (wings,
backs, necks,) to furnish meat for
freezing prepared creamed chicken.
To save further freezer space, re-
move bone from legs, and pack only
the meaty portion with other meaty
pieces. Or, use the meat from legs in
creamed chicken.
Meaty pieces: For packing, select
containers made of moisture-vapor
resistant material, that can be sealed
tightly. Use medium or small-siZed
cartons, according to family needs.
For convenience, cartons can be la
beled before filling. Mark them to
show contents and date. In packing
insert each chicken piece in a fold
of cellophane, to prevent pieces
sticking together, and fit into carton
compactly. Freeze or store at 0 F.
or lower. At serving time, the frozen
chicken may be cooked without pre-
liminary thawing, for stew or fri
| cassee.
Bony Pieces:
Cover bony pieces with salted
water and simmer until tender. For
| mild seasoning, a small bag of herbs
IA teaspoon thyme andA teaspoon
marjoram-may be added to the
| cooking water. Cool the cooked meat
in the stock, then separate meat
from skin and fat. Strip the bones,
The Lexington advertiser. [volume] (Lexington, Miss.) 1904-1985, 1947-11-06

trying to provide good sized pieces
rather than many scraps, and cut
any large pieces into uniform cubes.
Then prepare as creamed chicken,
using any favorite recipe. Meat from
necks, wings, and backs of 6 hens
is likely to yield about Az pints OF
creamed chicken. Adding meat from
legs would bring the amount to 8
or 8 pints.
Cool the hot creamed chicken
quickly and package for freezing in
containers lined with heat-sealing
bags of moisture-vapor resistant
cellophane. Be sure to label, to show
contents and date. Freeze and store
at 0 F. Or lower.
Two pints of frozen creamed
chicken makes 4 to 5 generous serv-
ings. A pint block can be thawed and
heated in a double boiler in about
80 minutes. To prevent the creamed
chicken from sticking to the pan,
start thawing with the water warm,
not hot, in the lower part of the
boiler. If heating more than n
block at once, use a pan large enough
in diameter, SO that blocks need not
be stacked.

set, at Flushing Meadow Park
where the same 81 nations will re-
ceive the agreement for final action.
Russia Also Joins Group.
Russia previously had abstained in
voting on the agreement when it
was before a subcommittee Of the
legal group, but the Soviet vote was
cast yesterday along with the others
to make the approval unanimous.
The agreement, which provides
certain immunities and access to the
headquarters under guarantees of
protection for any aliens certified
on United Nations business but not
otherwise qualified for admission to
the United States, specifically left
the way open for future U. N.-United
States negotiations for establish
ment and operation of a United
Nations aerodrome and postal
system.
These operations would be subject
to supplemental agreement if and
when the international organization
should decide to undertake them.
Sovereignty Question Avoided.
The question of national sover-
eighty in the area was avoided
deliberately in the long negotiations
involving legal experts of the United
Nations and of the Federal, State
and New York City governments.
The district would not become
extraterritorial but would have the
same inviolable status as a foreign
Embassy in Washington, legal ex-
perts of the United Nations ex-
planned.
The pact provides police force
for Secretary General Trygve Lie,
who would rule the headquarters
district with extraordinary powers.
He also may call on outside Ameri-
can authorities in extreme circum-
stances.
The agreement bars racial and
religions discrimination

mystery killing itself off?
Some of the foremost whodunit
writers were split on the question

tion of Msgr Ronald Knox, writer
of thrillers himself:
1.-THE detective story is in danger
Of getting played out. Stories are
| getting cleverer and cleverer, but the
readers are getting cleverer and
cleverer, too. 1t is almost impossi-
BILE at the moment to think up any
form of bluff which the really sea-
soned reader will not see through.
Msgr. Knox's baff1ement, which he
expressed in the current issue of the
Roman Catholic newspaper, The
Tablet, drew the lady Like equivalent
of snort from Agatha Christie
author of A thrillers.
II believe we have still some
tricks to play that even the most
seasoned reader will not see
through" she said comfortably
MY own experience is that detective
stories are being read more than
ever"
But Dorothy l.. Sayers, creator OF
Lord Peter Wimsey, sided with the
monsignor.
IT have given up writing crime
stories," she said. TN common
with the novel, the detective story
! is likely to decline in the future

United Air Lines Head
Calls 1916 Expansion Year

Addition of high-speed four
engined planes, extension of air
passenger service to more than
a dozen new cities and increased
schedules to all points made l946 the
greatest expansion year in United
Air Lines history, although with re-
conversion problems common to
business and industry in general, ac-
cording to w. A. Patterson, presi-
dent.
In 1947, the airlines of the country
expect to obtain many of the objec-
tives which they have envisioned for
the postwar years, Mr.. Patterson
said. New, faster, more luxurious
and commodious airplanes plus the
elimination of bottlenecks in the
ground handling of air traffic should
make it possible for us to accom-
modate the full travel demands.
We expect to make important
progress in schedule dependability
with increases in passenger and
cargo traffic along with very sub
