The fat In the pan Is o hot that
It keeps the Juices of the meat seal
ed in, and the turning of the roast
serves In place of the basting on
which so many supposedly fine cooks
lay stress. There need be no smoke
during the operation.
No salted or otherwise seasoned
rouMt beef can enual In flavor a roast
so cooked. In which every bit of Juice
Is retained.
Some time somebody will put out
an oven Just for roasting with those
Ideas for foundation. That will mean
a roast beef revolution.
ROhSTING IEEF fit' DIET GAS FUME
A revival of real roast beef is in
progress and those men who mourn
fully declare that the right kind of
roast beef is almost unknown on
United States dinner tables may take
courage and also notice, for not even
the English roast beef tradition hadj
so fine a flavor or emerged from the,
oven so rich in Juices as the meati
cooked in the newest way, says the1
Chicago Tribune.
And one doesn't have to buy enough
meat to last an average census fam
ily a week, either, in order to be
sure of beef. It la due entirely to im
proved practice in the application
of direct heat to the meat.
The average family roast of beef
throughout the country is about six
pounds, more often a shade under
than over. When a woman becomes
skillful enough to i roast meat so that
the fiber looks red when a slice is
removed, yet when the carving knife
is pressed against the meat and
scraped across the piece carved from
the fiber turns the palest shade of
gray, while the blood simply flows
after the knife and not one teaspoon
ful of the Jujce has escaped into the
pan during the cooking, it comes pret
ty near the perfection of a cooking
process. Of course it may be cooked
as much less as desired, but always
the Juice to the last drop may be re
tained. Incidentally, when every house
keeper moans over the high price of
beef, this real roast beef cooking,
which will be taught in a couple of
hundred cities and towns during the
coming season of free cooking lec
tures, Is all in the Interest of econ
omy. The great trouble with roast beef
Is that few women know how to give
a fine bit of roasting beef even re
spectful handling. It is salted and
peppered and floured and water Is
put into the roasting pan, all to make
it nice. Not one of those things is
done under the new rules, yet the
meat will be so tasty that It is almost
possible to eat it without salting.
Another argument in favor of the
new rules Is that the loss of weight In
cooking by the older methods reaches
one-quarter of what goes Into the
ovens. The progress of appliances
Intended for cooking by gas reduced
this long to about one-fifth. The new
est rules reduce It to one-eighth and
further provide this loss shall be all
fat. In fact, what a man pays the
butcher for he gets when It reaches
the table.
The only consideration as to time
required concerns the thickness of
the piece to be roasted. Up to seven
Inches this method may be used,
even to nine, but not If the latter
is to be cooked medium only In case
the meat is to be rare.
To be sure of this perfection In
roast beef the roast should be re
garded well in buying. If It Is to
be boned and rolled,' be sure the fas
tenings, whether skewer or threads,
which hold It are loosened. Butch
ers firmly believe they can's roll such

About two weeks ago a party of
eight of them, under the cave of a

for a month's outing. Arriving at
the resort, they Joinedothers of the

a bunch of Jolly students can.

roasts tight enough to suit house
keepers.
If such a roast is too tightly rolled
the ends of the meat swell out, push
ing the best portions of the meat up
Into a hump at either end. This
slices badly and prevents it from
standing as it should on the platter.
; Moreover, this tight rolling pre-
vents the heat from penetrating to
the interior of the meat to reach the
ends which the butcher pokes into
the center of the roast with the loose
scraps. When the meat is carved,
out rolls this bunch of purplish red
fiber, often stone cold. When the
roast is not rolled too tightly the heat
penetrates more easily to the Inner
portions of the piece.
For a small family It is well to
find a butcher who carries some'
small animals. Then, If you really
want your money's worth, .get this
butcner to save for you the first
porterhouse of two ribs. This des
ignation varies in different parts of
the country.
With the first rib there should be
no tenderloin, and only a little on
the outer end of the second. But
you will find many persons dellber
ately selecting the sirloin side of the
bone and taking the filet to be used
as such or in various special dishes.
If it is Impossible to get this first
cut. often called a Delmonico cut,
and the roast which you get must
carry tenderloin with It, have the
tenderloin taken out and ask the but
cher to cut you one steak from the
sirloin side. Wrap the tenderloin In
waxed paper and it will keep 24
hours nicely for some special dish
These two cuts probably present
as little chance for waste In cooking
and serving and handling as any
beef used for roasting, and thus they
make up for the increased cost over
the cheaper rib cuts with their pounds
of fat and muscle and rim, for which
no one cares.
Wipe the roast with a dry cloth
Place it In a small roasting pan, un
less the family demands a swimming
pool of brown gravy; In that case
choose a larger pan.
Direct Flame Necessary,
The direct flame of a gas oven Is
necessary for the process, and mean
time any vegetables may be boiled
In the upper oven with the same
heat, thus taking all smell and steam
of cooking out of the kitchen and
house.
Heat the broiling oven about half
the time usual for broiling. Put the
roast close under the flame and
quickly sear It. Turn it without
sticking a fork Into the meat and
sear the other end of the fiber.
If too heavy a crust is formed at
this time, the heat can not so easily
reach the inside of the meat, while the
crust continues to thicken and hard
en, also causing waste. When the
process is continued with the top of
a six-pound roast three or four Inch
es from the tips of the flame, the best
results are secured.
If the heat Is not sufficient and a
white-lined pan is used, the Juice can
be seen at once leaving the roast
and appearing as dark brown matter
In the fat of the pan. The heat should
be Increased if this is seen.
Turn the meat about every twelve
minutes. The thicker the piece the
longer it will require for cooking.
Put no sal or water with the meat
If salt Is Insisted upon because of tra
dition, it may be added when the
roast Is two-thirds done, as it can
do little harm then.

Portland, Aug. 3. "Seven thou

that's the rate at which the various
transportation Interests of Portland
Country club and livestock show that
the crowds attending that event In
September will be handled. Every
day at the grounds is busier than the
one preceding. The Intense Interest
of the whole Northwest is evidenced
by the great number of entries al
ready made, while the national Inter

United States.
Hon. Wilbur K. Newell, president
of the Oregon state board of horti
culture, and equally well known In
Washington, has, at the request of
the Oregon Development league, con
densed his Ideas on good roads Into
one hundred words, and they tell the
story:
"Bad roads nullify advertising, re
pel Immigration, increase cost of liv
ing, render the automobile useless
and will deprive the farmer of rural
free delivery.
"State aid and supervision of road
construction Is essential.
in equity because a public bene
fit the sjate should pay 25 per cent
of the cost, county 50 per cent and
the adjacent property 25 per cent.
"For thoroughness trained engin
eers and strict supervision of all'
work.
For economy levy taxes and pay
as we go, or on short time certificate
plan.
"For education regular and cor
respondence courses In road building
at Oregon Agricultural college and
University of Oregon.
"Let us build good roads all sum
mer instead of talking about them all
winter."
The Oregon good roads conference
will convene promptly at 8:30 a. m..
Tuesday, Aug. 11, In the convention
hall of the Portland commerlcal
club, sixth floor. Another meeting
will be held at 2 o'clock and perhaps
an evening session. A feature of the
convention will be the attendance of
many road supervisors and practical
road officials.
A great cement plant Is to be built
in Portland the first Instance In
America in which Portland cement
has been manufactured In a city of
that name. Portland and Salt Lake
capitalists have organized a company
with a capital of 11,200,000, and the
lime rock will be brought from Rosei
burg, where they own a tract of 100
acres of choice rock.
One thousand barrels of cement a
day will be manufactured at the be
ginning, but the plant is so designed
that this capacity can be doubled at
any time with very slight change.
Buildings and grounds will occupy a
site of fifteen acres in the suburbs of
Portland, with both rail and water
transportation.
C. W. Nlbley and associates of Salt
Lake hold one-half the stock, with
Portland capitalists the other half.
Mr. Nlbley has extensive interests In
Utah, Idaho, Oregon and California,
and Is president of the Union Cement
company at Devil's Slide, Utah, which
has manufactured 2,000 barrels a day
during two years of successful and
profitable operation.
Building permits exceeding a mil
lion dollars were Issued In Portland
during July, an Increase of 1300,000
as compared with that month of last
year. Transfers of choice business
properties . were never so numerous,
nor building so active.

Of tbe abnormal climate of Kadiak
Island, Alaska, a writer says: "In spite
of Its situation In such high latitudes
we And here wtiat may well be de
scribed as the parting of the ways' be
tween tbe arctic and more temperate
regions. For, tbanks to the moderating
Influence of the Japanese current
which flows along its southern coasts,
Kadiak is favored with climatic condi
tions such as are uukuowu even in
places a few miles north or east of It
on the mainland of Alaska. So pro
nounced Is tbe demarcation line that
even on tbe Island Itself a traveler In
summer will suddenly emerge from
amid forests and vegetation of almost
tropical luxuriance Into a barren, des
olate land of silence, where lofty snow
capped mountains tower aloft, brood
ing, as It were, over the past terrors of
an arctic winter, which will soon de
scend once more, enveloping them In
its icy grip."
The English Channel.
One of the most famous bits of water
In the world Is the English channel,
which separates and yet unites the sis
ter countries of England and France
and has been tbe scene of so much of
tbolr history. It extends on the Eng
lish side from Land's End to Dover
and on tbe French side from tbe Island
of Ushant to Calais. Its entrance from
tbe German ocean is tbe strait of Do
ver, twenty-one miles wide, while at
the other extremity, where It Joins the
Atlantic, it Is 100 miles from shore to
shore. The greatest width midway is
150 miles. Owing to the strong current
setting in from tbe westward, tbe high
winds wblcb frequently prevail and

a roughness which has become prover
bial and few cross It without seasick
ness. It Would Flatter Man.
Few men have deserved and few
have won higher praise in on epitaph
than tbe following, which was written
by Lord Byron on tbe tomb of bis dead
Newfoundland:
"Near this spot are deposited tbe re
mains of one wbo possessed beauty
without vanity, strength without Inso
lence, courage without ferocity and all
the virtues of man without his vices.
This praise, which would be unmean
ing flattery If Inscribed over human
ashes, is but a Just tribute to tbe mem
ory of Boatswain, a dog, who was born
at Newfoundland May 8, 1803, and died
at Newstead abbey Nov. 18, 1808."

KANSAS WHEAT, 75 MILLIONS.
Average Yield Is 12 (t BuxheL per
Aor Lnrger Crop Than Lash
Year.
Kansas has raised about two mil
lion bushels more wheat this year
thun It produced last year, according
to about G00 reports of average
yields per aero that have been re
ceived by the Stnr In the last few
days. These reports Indicate a total
winter wheat yield of a little more
than-sevpiity-flve million bushels. The
final estimate by the state board of
agriculture of the winter wheat crop
of 1907 was 73,230,000 bushels, to
which was added about a million
bushels of spring wheat.
The crop Is ubout 60 per cent of a
full normal crop on the seven mil
lion acres reported last fall. About
600,000 acrese were abandoned in tho
west on account of the spring
draught; 150,000 acres were lost In
the east and central portions because
of flood and excessive rain and 175,
000 acres were ruined by Hessian
flies In the south central counties, and
ull these factors cut down the yield
on the remaining area.
The average area for the state on
the areu harvested was a little morn
thun 124 bushels.
Some of the Important wheat coun.
ties have almost normal crops, but
In many counties tho yield is only 10
bushels or less. Kansas City Star.
