Best buys Beef liver, turkey, chicken, whole ham , ground beef and pork shoulder were again found to be the most economical meat buys in a sec ond study by the U .S . Department o f Agriculture. Prices in the study, which includ ed meat alternates as well as selected types and cuts o f meat, poultry and fish, were based on four consecutive weeks in June 1982 in five Washing- ton, D .C ., area supermarkets. The first study was in the same area in February 1982. Some meat altern ates— such as dry beans and peas, peanut butter and eggs— were also good buys in protein, according to Esther Winter- feldt, administrator o f U S D A ’s H u man Nutrition Information Service. "These foods also provide certain o th er nutrien ts fo r which m eat, poultry and fish are valu ed ," W in - terfeldt said. The study compared the costs o f 20 grams o f p ro te in — about one- third the recommended allowance fo r a young m an — fro m selected meats and alternates. U SD A intends to repeat this study every year in February. " W h ile a three-ounce serving o f cooked lean beef, pork, lamb, veal, chicken, turkey or fish provides about 20 grams o f protein or more, it takes well over a serving o f some alternates and meat products to get 20 grams," she said. “ For example, it takes one and o n e -h a lf cups o f cooked dry beans, four frankfurters or 10 slices o f bacon to provide 20 grams o f protein.

" T o m a to plants infected w ith either o f these viruses will be notice ably shorter than healthy p la n ts ," says Ray M c N e ila n , Oregon State University Extension home garden ing agent. Tom ato plant leaves infected with aster yellows virus turn u pright and eventually curl up. Leaves in fected with curly top virus curl up ward, develop a leathery, stiff con d itio n , and eventu ally the entire p lant w ill become a d u ll yellow color. Both diseases pre.ent any further development o f plant fruit. These diseases are spread by leaf- hoppers and their appearance is un predictable, McNeilan explains. The diseases m ight infect only one or tw o plants in one garden, and de stroy the e n tire tom ato patch in another garden. C ontrol is often difficult because c o n tro llin g the leafhoppers that spread the diseases is d iffic u lt. These viruses can also be harbored in weeds near the garden, and in other vegetable and flower plants. M cNeilan recommends good gar den san itatio n as the best way to keep astor yellows and curly top out o f growing tomato plants. Remove infected plants and burn them, and keep weed growth out o f the garden. M cNeilan also suggests keeping weeds away from the gar den where possible. Insecticides may not give good control because the leafhoppers o f ten transm it the virus before they are killed. Shading the plants sometimes helps because leafhoppers avoid feeding on plants sheltered from di rect sunlight. 3-Lb. Coffee Maxwell House, Reg.
