CORNBREAD STUFFING.
fFYom Mrs. M. ~. Front Royal

fFfOm MTS. M N.s cfOftk 1soyUs"
Yesterday. I set out to make
stuffed pork chops and discovered
to my horror that none OF my
cook books gave a recipe for corn
bread stuffing and furthermore.
only one book mentioned stuffed
pork chops. Since I have never
considered a stuffing as being the
real thing unless it was made from
cornbread, and since this is ap-
parently not used nationally. some
of the readers may be interested
in my formula, which tasted just
like the one we have at home.
:. To begin with, the pork chops
are extra thick ones with q pocket
cut in them. They are stuffed
and baked in an oven Of $50 de-
grees for one to two hours de-
pending on their thickness. Extra
stuffing may be placed on the
pan under the chops.
The stuff1ng Is made from 2
cups loosely packed cornbread
crumbs, l cup loosely packed bread
crumbs, / small onion diced. "a
cup diced celery. y teaspoon salt.
"a teaspoon poultry seasoning
"a cup warm water, l egg. l small
apple diced Optional and for pork
chops only.
Mix all but the egg and let
sit until soft. Add egg and mix
thoroughly. This is enough for
four pork chops. Turkeys and
chickens were always stuffed with
this at home.
And here is q hint: Wrap the
leftover cornbread in aluminium
foil, add a teaspoonful Of water
and heat In the ovens to serve
at dinner

CHICAGO, Sept. 23 GP.-Grain futures
were a shade lower in quiet early dealings
There was little in the news to interest
grain traders. Corn started flrm but soon
dipped on selling by traders with cash

Soybeans slumped more sharply than
grains on commission house selling.

were A-A lower, November 2.24A, and

With the September contracts out of the
way, trade interest now centers in the
December deliveries.
The December contract is the new-crop
siderable trade interest. The Government
support price on corn is expected to be
about 1866 q bushel basis Chicago. The
December future is selling nearly 40 cents
below that figure. For this reason, many
traders believe marketings Of new corn
will be small and farmers will take full
advantage of the support program.
One trade source said. however,. that
substantial corn export sales have been
made for November shipment and, this.
combined with professors needs. should

More Flying in Europe
BY the Associuted Press

LONDON, Sept. 23.-The Amer
lean travel dollar soon will go al
most one-third farther through
Europe's air.
But it will take just as many
dollars as before currency devalu-
alton to get across the Atlantic by
plane.
The International Air Transport
Association yesterday agreed to
cut rates for dollar-paying pas
sengers flying in Europe and from
European points to the Middle
East, Asia and Africa. Spokes-
men for three American airlines
said the cuts would be about 30
per cent.
For transatlantic passengers
the present dollar rates will con-
tinue. For passengers paying in
devalued currency, the fares across
the Atlantic will 60 up, to COM
pensate for the devaluation.
The new rates. effective October
/, will continue in force at least
until the IATA meets November
