The goodness of venison depends
almost entirely on the age Of the
animal. Also it must be well hung
about 10 days. Ask your butcher to
do this for you as special favor.
He also can cut the meat into proper
portions, too. The shoulder, shank
and breast may be cut up and used
for stews, while the legs, saddle, loin
and tenderloin will make your roasts
and steaks. Now is time when you
are lucky If you have a deep freeze
you can enjoy venison at any time
in the months to come.
All venison must be marinated be-
fore cooking except the tenderloin.
This is essential for tenderness and
flavor. A good marinade consists OF
couple of bottles of dry red wine
a cup of wine vinegar, q tablespoon
Of salt, q teaspoon of crushed pep
percorns, q bay leaf, 8 or medium
onions cut in pieces, couple OF
crushed cloves Of garlic and a few
juniper berries. The meat should
stay In this marinade for two days
in a cool place, before cooking. Turn
it often 50 1t becomes soaked thor
oughly.
You may roast the tenderloir
whole or cut 1t into steaks. This Is
of course, the dressiest of dressy
meats for a dinner party. The roast

not cook their rice as long as we do.
They like it when the rice is little

definitely nutty flavor. And I must
say it is very delicious cooked this
way. One point Signora Soro was
quite firm about. She said people can
wait for risotto but risotto can't wait

COLD PREVENTION:
RESTYLING KITCHEN.


Colds are very rare in our family,
and I attribute 1t to observing the
following: Eat well, lots OF protein;
dress warmly and keep the small
children's room warm at night, even
at the expense of ventilation; treat
colds as contagious diseases.
Regarding Mrs. e. E. P.'s letter
about restyling the kitchen OF a
7-year-old house. There Is so little
difference in the kitchen equipment
of today and that Of Z years ago
that one might wonder why any
changes are needed at ALI. y prob
ably needs cleaning and painting,
and possibly new linoleum. Beyond
this, the amount of work needed
must depend on whether the original
plan of the kitchen was good or
poor.
The best wall finish for q kitchen
is usually considered to be oil paint.
because It can be washed. Cooking
grease and smoke discolor wallpaper
horribly. Even the best grade OF
washable" wallpaper gets too yei-
lew and greasy to wash.
We have found that small ex-
haust fan in the kitchen window
Is more than worth its cost In the
amount of cleaning 1t saves. 1t not
only keeps great deal OF grease
from depositing on the kitchen walls,
but 1t keeps the walls and woodwork
of adjoining rooms cleaner.
If the sink Is against an inside
wall, it should have q light over it.
Small children always mess up
the doors Of the cupboards and
cabinets below the sink. II the doors
are painted white. they need con-
slant cleaning. A practical remedy
is to paint them q bright red, green,
or blue. Not only will the spots be
invisible, but the location Is an at
tractive one for q touch Of color.
Rubber tile Is far and away the
best material for drainboards, ex-
cept for bakelite and stainless steel.
It is infinitely preferable to linoleum
and composition board, because 1t
needs no attention whatever.
Painting the stained kitchen door
white would seem to be inviting a
lot of hard work, with small chill
dren around. How about painting
it a bright color that won't show
the fingerprints?
The ,oply trouble with wood cabi-
nets In the kitchen is that the doors
swell and shrink slightly with the
seasons. Hence they don't At any
too well. Metal cabinets, on the
other hand, tend to chip badly.
Builders of expensive houses seem
about equally divided between the
metal and the wood.

VIOLETS?
(From Mrs. r. w. p, Arlington.)
I received a small African violet
last spring. It soon lost its flowers
and looked very bad for while. I
put in into q larger pot and water
it daily and keep it on window sill.
where it gets a moderate amount
of sunlight. The plant looks vigor-

SHEET METAL.
(Fron, Mrs. C. w. H., BethesdG.)
For the ladies interested in pur-
chasing sheet copper, aluminium,
stainless steel, etc. These sheet
metals can be purchased at almost
any of the larger hardware stores
and many of the smaller neighbor-
hood hardware stores. They also
can be purchased at any sheet metal
shop. See the classified section OF
your telephone book.
It Is much easier to buy them
locally and is cheaper also you can
get them in many different weights
and sizes.
WARNING AND A RECIPE.
from Mrs. S. H. P, Washtngton.)
This has been on my mind for
some time, a few days ago, when do
ing marketing, I heard conversa-
ton which prompted this: Never
feed uncooked pork of any variety
to man or animal. Hogs have a dis
ease called trichinosis, from which
any part of the hog which Is not
well cooked can be transmitted to
human beings or animals. 1t is very
serious, setting into the muscles,
being painful, even causing death.
Many wrappers on sausage now
have the warning to cook well done.
When you buy pork liver or kidney
for your dog or cat. cook 1t at least
40 to so minutes If the pieces are
not large. Longer If large. There
is no danger If pork is thoroughly
cooked.
Now for a recipe which my family
has enjoyed:
Fall Relish (Uncooked)-Use red
and green sweet peppers, equal parts,
the same amount of onions equal to
both kinds of peppers. Measure
after putting through coarse knife
of food chopped. Add to this as
much cabbage, also put through
food chopper, as there is of COM
bined peppers and onions, put in
large bowl, sprinkle with salt gen.
erously, mix well. Let stand over
night. Drain we'll, add tablespoons
white mustard seed, / tablespoon
celery seed for each 2 quarts OF veg
etable. One cup sugar for each
quart, more If liked sweeter. Cover
all with cider vinegar, let stand 3
days, stirring well several times q
day. Seal in sterilized jars.

'ERP Nations 10 Push
Industrial Output and
Restrict Consumption
By the Assoeiotsd Press

PARIS, Oct. 16.-Nations taking
part in the European Recovery Pro-
gram today announced plans for
substantial increases in industrial
production in 194S-49, but only
slight increases in consumer con-
sumption.
A 70-page report, with masses of
statistical tables, was given to Am
bassador w. Averell Hartman,
United States special representative
in Europe for ERP, by Paul-Henri
Spaak, Belgian premier and presi-
dent of the council of the Organ
ization for European Economic Co.
operation (OEEC).
Fund Divisions Outlined.
The ceremony was attended by
representatives of the 16 nations
and three occupied zones taking
part in the program. Nine foreign
ministers attended.
The report indicated the following
percentage increases in production
for the year ending June 30, 1949,
over the 1947 figures: coal 1877 per
cent; steel so: pig iron 68; lead 78;
bread grains As; petroleum 80, and
electric power 10.
The program outlined the division
of American aid funds, the efforts
under way to stimulate intra- Euro
lpean trade and the method worked
out Tor taking care of intra- Euro
pean payments.
Hope for More Bread.
For consumers, it held out hope
for more and better bread in some
areas. The meat ration was ex-
pected to be about the same as in
1947 and considerably below pre-
war levels. More fats and oils were
anticipated than in 1947.
The intra European payment
scheme which was worked out by
the OEEC was expected to stimu-
late European commerce by $780,
100000. 1t was expected the volume
of intra- European trade would be
increased by approximately Is per
cent over 1947.
1t was pointed out the dollar def
icit of the participating countries
would be slightly less than six bill
lion dollars this year, a decrease of
two billion dollars since 1947. This
deficit will be made up by the
American aid funds.
